Lean Bergmann

In his rookie professional season in 2018–19, Bergmann quickly adapted to show his scoring abilities with the Roosters, finishing third among teammates with 20 goals in 50 regular season games. As the youngest DEL player to reach the 20 goal plateau, Bergman was signed in the midst of the campaign to a lucurative one-year contract with contending club, Adler Mannheim, for the 2019–20 season on 17 January 2019.

In the off-season, before he could commence his contract with Championship winning Adler Mannheim, Bergmann gained the interest of NHL teams as an undrafted prospect. On 28 May 2019, he was signed by the San Jose Sharks to a three-year entry-level contract. Bergmann made his NHL debut with the Sharks on 2 October 2019 against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Bergmann made his senior international debut, representing Germany at the 2019 IIHF World Championship in Slovakia. He finished the tournament scoreless in 5 appearances, as Germany placed 6th.

Following two and half seasons in the USHL with the Stampede and the Green Bay Gamblers Bergmann was not selected in his eligible NHL Entry Draft years. He returned to Germany to embark on his professional career, agreeing to a one-year contract with hometown club, the Iserlohn Roosters of the top tiered Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) on 26 July 2018.

During the 2015–16 season, Bergmann left Almtuna and Sweden on 4 January 2016, in order to pursue his North American ambition by signing for the remainder of the season with the Sioux Falls Stampede of the United States Hockey League (USHL).

Lean Bergmann (born 4 October 1998) is a German professional ice hockey forward who is currently playing for the San Jose Sharks of the National Hockey League (NHL). He also plays internationally for the German national team.
