Yaroslav Askarov was traded to the San Jose Sharks from the Nashville Predators in August .

The 22-year-old was considered one of the top NHL No. 1 prospects in the world.

Askarov 's path to the NHL was blocked by Juuse Saros' new long-term deal with the Predators .

The Sharks GM Mike Grier says Askarov is a "golden opportunity" for the Sharks .

Pavel Askarov signed a two-year , $4-million contract with the Sharks .

Askarov has struggled in consecutive post-seasons, posting a combined897 save percentage and 2.85 goals-against average in the playoffs.

The Sharks are in the nascent stages of a full-scale rebuild, so Askarov will have room to grow.
