Sharks' Tim Heed: Reassigned to AHL San Jose

Heed was sent to the minors Friday.

Analysis:

He's drawn into only one NHL game this season, but returns to the AHL's Barracuda where he's dialed in nine goals and 23 helpers in 29 games -- for those of you that don't want to do the math, that's over a point-per-game pace. Heed's come a long way since the Ducks nabbed him with a fifth-round pick in the 2010 draft, subsequently honing his craft in the Swedish Hockey League and ultimately earning a spot with Team Teal as a free agent this past summer.
