The San Jose Sharks are looking to keep that winning streak going tonight, against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Sharks have won three in a row, most recently beating out the Anaheim Ducks in exciting, come from behind fashion last night. But the players need to turn the page quickly and get ready to host the Maple Leafs, who are on the second part of the California road trip.
The Leafs had an emotional win in Anaheim on Monday night, beating the Ducks 5-4 in a slug fest that saw Toronto t...

The San Jose Sharks are no longer just chasing a playoff spot. They are pushing for it.
With the regular season winding down and every game tightening the Western Conference race, San Jose delivered one of its most important wins of the season; a 4-3 comeback over the Anaheim Ducks at SAP Center. Against a division leader near the top of the conference, the Sharks showed they can compete with the NHL’s best when it matters most.
The Sharks entered the night sitting just behind the Lo...

As has felt like the case all season long, no one seems to want to grab a hold of the playoffs and take control. As a result, the San Jose Sharks, unbelievably, are still a factor in the playoff race today, even as the team also vies for a potential lottery pick in the upcoming NHL Entry Draft. For Sharks fans, it’s the best of both worlds in some ways because you get the thrill of a playoff chase while still having the security of knowing that if your team falls just short, you have good odds...

Tonight’s battle against conference rivals, the Anaheim Ducks, is a test of growth, identity, and resilience for the San Jose Sharks.
The Ducks arrive with depth across their lines, elite scorers, and structured play. San Jose carries a brand of hockey that thrives in chaos, opportunistic, and unafraid to lean on its young stars when the game opens up.
But as the playoffs approach, the Sharks are still fighting for their chance at a wildcard spot.
“We need to be loose and enjoy ...
Coming off a long road losing streak, the San Jose Sharks emerged victorious in a back-and-forth home battle against the Saint Louis Blues at the SAP Center, winning 5-4. Macklin Celebrini, as he casually does, made National Hockey League and franchise history, scoring his hundredth point in one season. The win has more than just Celebrini credit, but Alex Wennberg provided two Sharks goals, and Adam Gaudette scored the riveting game-winner that now keeps the Sharks in the running for a wild c...
The San Jose Sharks are back home and crazily, still in the playoff race. As has been the case all season, no one seems to want to take a strangle hold on those wild card spots, so the Sharks are still well within striking distance, just four points back of the second spot with games in hand on every other team ahead of them. But just behind the Sharks are the St. Louis Blues, who pay a visit to the Shark Tank today.
The Blues have not been kind to the Sharks this season. St. Louis won th...
The San Jose Sharks wrap up the team’s three-game road trip today with a stop in Columbus to play the Blue Jackets. The last time these two teams played was on Jan. 6, when the Sharks won 5-2. But today is a different story. Now the teams are in much different position. San Jose is on a losing streak. Meantime, since Jan. 11, Columbus has gone 20-4-4 and jumped into a playoff spot. The Blue Jackets are third in the Metropolitan Division as of this morning, knocking the New York Islanders down ...
The San Jose Sharks pushed the St. Louis Blues to overtime, but could not manage to get the final goal to seal the win. With less than three seconds remaining on the clock, the Sharks hung Alex Nedeljkovic out to dry and allowed Dylan Holloway to retrieve a puck alone, drive the net and put one over Nedeljkovic’s shoulder for the game-winner. Nedeljkovic got as big as he could in the net and hugged the post as well as he could; it was just an excellent shot by Holloway.
HOLY MOLY DYLAN HO...
The San Jose Sharks are hoping to snap a five-game losing streak today with a visit to the St. Louis Blues. This is the second of three meetings between the two teams. The Sharks lost the last bout, a 3-2 loss in overtime on March 6 in San Jose. They’ll play once more in San Jose on March 30.
The Blues are seventh in the Central Division, but have been doing better over the last week and a half than the Sharks. The team is 3-1-1 in its last five games and just a point behind San Jose in t...
The San Jose Sharks are swimming in some uncharted waters. Not only is the team still a playoff contender, though its chances are dwindling dramatically, but the Sharks are also very much a lottery contender, putting the team in a very interesting position heading into the final few weeks of the season. As Sharks fans, that means there are two races to watch this time around. The race for the playoffs and the race to see who will have the best odds of picking first overall in the 2026 NHL Entr...
Pregame:
The Sharks started their 3-game road trip in Nashville tonight in front of a sold-out Nashville crowd. They needed to start this road trip with a win by playing urgently and confidently (spoiler alert: they did NOT). The Sharks went into tonight on a 4-game losing streak, while the Predators were on a 4-game winning streak. With the Sharks chasing the Preds for the second wild card spot in the West, it was imperative that they put their best food forward in what was the biggest g...
The San Jose Sharks are back on the road and hopefully able to get back in the win column today. San Jose pays a visit to the Nashville Predators this afternoon. It’s the key matchup on this three game road trip with the biggest playoff implications. A win today would be a four point swing in the playoff race, since Nashville has caught up to the Sharks and even jumped into the second wildcard spot. If San Jose wants to stick in this playoff race, a win today is essential.
The Sharks get ...
The San Jose Sharks are getting ready to play another hot team today as the Philadelphia Flyers roll into town. The Flyers have won six in a row on the road, and are wrapping up the California swing with a stop in San Jose. The first two stops went well for the Flyers, a 3-2 overtime win over the Anaheim Ducks and a 4-3 shootout win over the Los Angeles Kings. While the Sharks appreciate the help in the playoff picture, the team would like to prevent the California sweep today.
The last t...
The San Jose Sharks are back home tonight and looking for a bit of retribution after last week’s drubbing at the hands of the Buffalo Sabres. The Sharks were humbled in Buffalo on March 10 , losing to the Sabres 6-3 on a game that showed the Sharks have a lot to clean up in their game.
Luckily for the Sharks, the team has a chance to make up for that loss tonight. The team can start with stronger puck management, specifically making smarter decisions with the puck. In Buffalo, Edmonton an...
Every NHL game is important at this time of year, whether your team is in the playoff push or not so subtly tanking for the draft lottery, there is always something to cheer for. Some noteworthy lineup changes for this game injected some extra intrigue on top of the obvious Pacific Division playoff race. Edmonton Oilers’ superstar Leon Draisaitl will be out for the rest of the regular season with a lower body injury, and this was the Oilers first game without him. The San Jose Sharks scratched...
The San Jose Sharks wrap up the road trip in Edmonton tonight and if there’s one game on the trip that’s more important than the rest, it’s this one. The Sharks prepare to take on a Leon Draisaitl-less Oilers team that’s fighting for a spot in the playoffs as well. This is one of those four point swing games, which means a win tonight puts the Sharks in an even better position to stay not only in the wild card race, but also to potentially jump into the Pacific Division race.
This is the ...
The San Jose Sharks get ready for the second game of back-to-backs today. The good news for the Sharks is that the Ottawa Senators are also playing the second game of a back-to-back, albeit with a bit more rest. The Senators played yesterday afternoon against the Anaheim Ducks and were kind enough to do the Sharks a favor and beat the Ducks 2-0. Ullmark made 23 saves for the shutout.
For those of you playoff race watching, that loss allowed the Vegas Golden Knights (F*** Vegas) to leapfro...
The San Jose Sharks lost Igor Chernyshov to a frightening injury early in Saturday’s game against the Montreal Canadiens, but managed to collect themselves and come away with the 4-2 win on the road. The scary incident happened when Chernyshov, carrying the puck up the ice, collided with Mike Matheson.
A word of warning before you watch the video, it’s not easy to watch.
Should this have been a penalty? 🧐 pic.twitter.com/sAvzLiGorn — Sharks on NBCS (@NBCSSharks) March 14, 202...
The San Jose Sharks visit the Bell Centre today for the team’s one and only regular-season visit to Montreal. If this game is anything like the last time these two teams played, it’s sure to be a barn burner. When the Sharks and Canadiens met on March 3 at SAP Center, the teams combined to score 12 goals, including six in the third period. While the Sharks ultimately came out on top, you can be sure that today won’t be a cake walk. Montreal is 6-1-3 in its last ten games, and the one loss was ...
The San Jose Sharks have locked up another piece of the rebuild era, perhaps sticking with a similar tactic to Team USA’s plans that helped the Americans win gold at the most recent Winter Olympics. That is, every player has a role. The Sharks announced today that 25-year-old center Ty Dellandrea signed a new, two-year deal worth $3.25 million ($1.625 annually).
Delly signing on the dotted line. ✍️ pic.twitter.com/Y5H34jTYCa — San Jose Sharks (@SanJoseSharks) March 13, 2026

The San Jose Sharks continue what is arguably the team’s most important extended road trip of the season this afternoon with a stop in Boston to play the Bruins. The Sharks need points on this road trip if the team wants to stay in the playoff hunt and it’s not getting easier as the group gets ready to play the gritty Bruins for game two. San Jose was humbled in Buffalo on Tuesday, seeing just how far the players need to come if they’re looking to be among the league’s more competitive teams m...
Buffalo has not been a kind place to the San Jose Sharks, who historically have struggled in road games against the Sabres. With every point at stake in their playoff race as the regular season winds down, the Sharks needed to find a way to leave history in the past. It would not be. Unfortunately, their struggles in upstate New York continued into 2026, with a 6-3 loss to the Atlantic Division’s top team.
Although the Buffalo Sabres haven’t made the playoffs since 2011, the longest...
The San Jose Sharks will have to be ready for anything today as the team pays its one and only regular-season visit to Buffalo. The Sabres are still riding high after a knock-down, drag-out fight with the Tampa Bay Lightning, which boosted the team to the top of the Atlantic Division. The two teams accumulated 102 penalty minutes on Sunday night, but the Sabres got the better of it, scoring four power play goals and winning 8-7 in regulation.
Things are only going to get better for the Sa...
The San Jose Sharks had little to say after a 2-1 overtime loss to the New York Islanders. It was the team’s second overtime loss in as many days and it was clear that the is one stung a lot more than the 3-2 loss to St. Louis on Friday night.
For the first half of the game, the Sharks seemed to figure out how to hang with the Islanders, but as the game wore on, San Jose got its scoring chances, but could not maintain puck possession as well as the Islanders did. There were a lot of one-a...
The San Jose Sharks welcome Matthew Schaefer and the New York Islanders into SAP Center for the second night of back-to-back games tonight. This is going to be a tough go-around for the Sharks, as the Islanders had a chance to rest up for the game. New York was in San Jose, watching the Sharks play against the St. Louis Blues last night.
New York is doing well this season and is, surprisingly, in a playoff spot as of this evening. The Islanders sit in third in the Metropolitan Division, w...
