The San Jose Sharks have signed winger Kevin Labanc to a standard, entry-level contract, general manager Doug Wilson announced Wednesday.
Labanc, 20, leads the Ontario Hockey League with 119 points (38 goals, 81 assists) through 59 games with the Barrie Colts this season.
"Kevin has become one of the premier point producers in the OHL and has elevated his game to new heights this season," Wilson said. "His smart, crafty play with the puck has made him a dangerous offensive player, but with the help of Barrie's head coach Dale Hawerchuk, his game has improved physically and in the defensive end as well.
"We're excited to see his continued development with our organization."
Labanc was selected in the sixth round of the 2014 NHL Draft, 171st overall.
