State of the Franchise: San Jose Sharks. Setting The Table For Longterm Success

After covering the other teams in the Pacific Division, it's time to look at the State of the Franchise: San Jose Sharks. Start by examining how the Sharks have finally accepted their fate as a rebuilding team by trading away major pieces like Timo Meier, Brent Burns, and Erik Karlsson for future assets. Analyze the Karlsson trade, and the thought process behind it for General Manager Mike Grier and how the Sharks are working to clean up their cap space. Next, review the offseason and some of the Sharks' top draft picks, including Will Smith, Quentin Musty, Kasper Halttunen, and Luca Cagnoni. Then, the theme of free agency was buy-low candidates, including Anthony Duclair, Filip Zadina, and Mackenzie Blackwood. Finally, a look ahead to the Sharks 2023-24 season: what are the worst/best case scenarios for the Sharks this offseason, and where will they finish in the Pacific Division?Check out the podcast on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BirddogsGo to birddogs.com/LOCKEDONNHL or enter promo code LOCKEDONNHL for a free water bottle with any order.
