NHL veteran Alexander Wennberg looked around the Sharks’ locker room and saw a problem he didn’t mind having.
“There’s so many good players. There’s just a few spots,” Wennberg said.
For a team still finding its way, that wasn’t always the case. Now, with more veterans around a young core and competition throughout the lineup, the Sharks have something they haven’t had in years, players waiting for their chance.
With injuries already testing the group before the season begins, t...
LAST SEASON The Sharks haven’t made the playoffs since 2019, and nobody expected anything different last season. But after years of high picks – namely Macklin Celebrini, Will Smith and Michael Misa – most expected at least a solid leap forward. The season started horribly, with the club sitting 31st at the end of October with a 3-6-2 record. But by the Olympic break, the Sharks were just five points out – Celebrini’s MVP-caliber season had given the club some new life. That put the Sharks in ...
After big improvements last season, are the playoffs in the conversation this time around?
The San Jose Sharks have made a habit of turning premium draft picks into franchise pillars. Macklin Celebrini arrived first overall in 2024 and became a superstar. Michael Misa followed…
Erik Karlsson is perpetually unbothered, so it should come as no surprise that when he talked about entering the final year of his contract that he basically is fine with staying in the present and isn’t worried about what comes next. Karlsson said yesterday that he hasn’t thought about his future. When asked if he […]
Phillip Sinn left Germany with a new team waiting for him in San Jose.
He left behind his family, friends and a hockey environment he had known his entire life. In their place was another chance to grow. For Sinn, the move was more about what he could learn next.
But the decision to come to San Jose was a no-brainer for him.
“Obviously the young core and the team they want to build … the coaching staff, like all those guys that played on the Sharks a couple years ago, lege...
Warsofsky has been instrumental in guiding the Sharks out of their rebuild and into playoff contention.
Last year, when we checked in with Zack Ostapchuk, the kid had some potential, but it was hard to say what he was going to bring to the San Jose Sharks. There was size and grit, but not a whole lot going on in terms of ability to drive play or contribute to an impactful, checking fourth line. He was still young and finding his place in the NHL.
Fast forward to this past season, when Ostapchuk found a way to earn his place in the Sharks lineup. Through a bit of luck and a lot of hard work,...
The San Jose Sharks are going to be one of the better teams in the National Hockey League sooner rather than later. After years of contention from the early noughties until the late 2010s, the Sharks bottomed out and were one of the worst teams in the league. Well, that was until last season. After…
One of hockey’s legendary tough guys has officially dropped the gloves for the last time. On Wednesday, longtime forward Ryan Reaves announced via social media that he is retiring from the NHL after a 16-year career. Reaves, 39, played 50 games last season for the San Jose Sharks, scoring three goals and no assists while earning five fighting majors. The Winnipeg native was initially selected out of the Western Hockey League’s Brandon Wheat Kings in the fifth round of the 2005 NHL Entry Draft ...
Brodie Brazil talks with Sharks President Jonathan Becher, about the state of the Sharks, what we’re doing to Turn It All Teal, and more.
Ryan Reaves is a loud and brash personality in the NHL. After serving in the NHL as an enforcer for the last sixteen seasons, he's decided to retire. He spent the 2025-26 season playing as a San Jose Shark , with 50 games played, scoring three points. "You can rest easy knowing the corners are a little safer today. Mic drop, gloves drop. Reavo out." "Reavo" has retired from the league, one of the last heavyweights left. Reaves was mixing it up with players like Matt Rempe and Nic D...
John Gibson is a pending free agent, and the Sharks, Sabres and Hurricanes all need goaltending help. #RedWings
By Brennan McClain | at September 15, 2026 3:30 pm The AHL’s Rochester Americans, the Buffalo Sabres’ top affiliate, have added a pair of talents for the 2026-27 campaign. According to a team announcement, the Americans signed forward Thomas Bordeleau and netminder Talyn Boyko to one-year AHL deals. Bordeleau, 24, is a former second-round pick of the San Jose Sharks. Before playing for the Sharks organization, Bordeleau spent two years with the University of Michigan Wolverines, scoring 20 goa...
The San Jose Sharks have been applauded this summer for the strength of their young prospects. One of those prospects put together a fabulous performance at the Rookie Faceoff. That is winger Ivar Stenberg, who posted two goals in just 25 seconds for the Sharks in a win over the Los Angeles Kings. “It was […]

The Sharks’ bench rose as 7’1″ Alexander Karmanov stepped in.
Players stood together along the boards, watching as the young defenseman dropped the gloves after a moment on the ice. It was one of several times San Jose players responded for each other throughout the night.
The game was only an exhibition, but the message was immediate. The Sharks were going to play for one another.

Game 2 of the 2026 Rookie Faceoff likely couldn’t have gone much better for the LA Kings. They showed an ability to quickly turn the page less than 24 hours after an embarrassing defeat to the Sharks and more than rebounded with an impressive 4-1 domination over the rival Ducks. Following the on-ice action that […]
The LA Kings evened their record at the 2026 Rookie Faceoff on Sunday afternoon, as they skated to a 4-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks.

By Gabriel Foley | at September 13, 2026 4:51 pm A rookie camp injury could cut down the San Jose Sharks’ training camp roster. Winger Cameron Lund sustained an upper-body injury on a hit delivered by Los Angeles Kings defenseman Jared Woolley in a friendly matchup on Saturday per Curtis Pashelka of Mercury News. Lund briefly tested the injury before leaving for the final two periods. He will be held out of San Jose’s Sunday exhibition against the Utah Mammoth while his injury is examined. As ...

It’s a new day, and the Kings are going to try again against a new opponent. Saturday night didn’t go as planned, with LA’s hockey club taking an 8-1 thrashing at the hands of an older, more experienced Sharks team. That’s not to offer any excuses for their performance, the Kings gave up far too […]
