Preseason Game 1 Golden Knights at Sharks: Lines, game thread and how to watch

Hockey is back baby! After all summer waiting and a few great days of training camp with some solid competition and great vibes, the Sharks are ready to play the team’s first preseason game of the season. While this is only a small glimpse of what the Sharks are going to get when the team starts the season in a few weeks, also against the Vegas Golden Knights at SAP Center for those of you keeping…

Sharks shutout Vegas 3-0 in preseason opener

While the preseason certainly isn’t an indication of what the season will bring, San Jose Sharks fans should be happy with some of the things they saw in the team’s first preseason game of the season. The Sharks came out buzzing in the first period, throwing the body and setting the tone even though the scoreboard stayed empty. Quentin Musty got things going with a huge hit on Cole Reinhardt…

No. 6 Sam Dickinson: Sharks’ next big blueline stud?

Sam Dickinson might just be the guy Sharks fans have been waiting for on the back end. San Jose snagged him 11th overall in the 2024 NHL Draft, and honestly, it already feels like the team got a steal. Dickinson spent last season absolutely lighting up the OHL with the London Knights … we’re talking 91 points in 55 games as a defenseman. That’s not just good, that’s franchise-record good.

No. 5 Yaroslav Askarov: This is it

Perhaps no one on this year’s 25 Under 25 list has more to prove this season than San Jose Sharks prospect Yaroslav Askarov. After all, this year is exactly why he requested a trade out of Nashville. Over the next nine months, Askarov has the opportunity to prove that he can be an NHL starter, or at the very least, that he has the chops to make it in the NHL. There is no one on the depth chart…

Preseason game 2 Golden Knights at Sharks: Lines, game thread and how to watch

The San Jose Sharks will host the Vegas Golden Knights at SAP Center once again tonight and those fans in attendance will get a peek at the brand new heritage jerseys 2.0 just announced by the team. Earlier today, the Sharks organization announced the Heritage 2.0 jerseys similar to the ones worn by the team from 1998 and 2007. That’s a throwback to the days of yore when Patrick Marleau was first…

No. 4 William Eklund: Growing into an NHL star

William Eklund’s path to the San Jose Sharks has been one of the most closely watched prospect journeys in the league. Drafted 7th overall by San Jose in the 2021 NHL Draft, he came into the organization with huge expectations as a future face of the franchise. After spending time developing in Sweden with Djurgårdens IF and splitting a couple of seasons between the Barracuda and the Sharks…

Quick bites: Sharks fall back to reality in 2-1 preseason loss to Vegas

The Sharks were back at SAP Center for the team’s second preseason meeting with the Vegas Golden Knights, looking to build off a strong training camp. But despite a hard push late in the game, Vegas escaped with a 2–1 win. The first period at SAP was … a grind. Neither team could find the back of the net, but it wasn’t for lack of trying. San Jose came out with an early jump.

Ryan Warsofky: A glance into the season

With the Sharks well into the training camp, head coach Ryan Warsofsky took a few minutes to chat about what’s stood out so far and where this team is headed. When asked about which players have been catching his eye, Warsofsky didn’t single anyone out. Instead, he highlighted the ups and downs of the group as a whole. “I think guys have stuck out in different areas…

No. 3 Michael Misa: New kid on the list

Michael Misa is one of the newest and most exciting names to crack our Top 25 Under 25 list, and for good reason. The kid is legit. The Sharks selected him in the first round of the 2025 NHL Draft, taking him second overall, and right away he became one of the biggest pieces of the team’s rebuild. Before heading to San Jose, Misa absolutely lit up the OHL with the Saginaw Spirit…

Preseason game 3 Sharks at Ducks: Lines, game thread and how to watch

The San Jose Sharks hit the road for the team’s first away game of the preseason. The Sharks pay a visit to our friends in the south, the Anaheim Ducks tonight. For the Sharks, the big story is Macklin Celebrini, who has been on the ice working out but is “ill” and hasn’t been doing the same drills as the rest of the team. Earlier this week, he was seen hauling Coach Mike Ricci around the…

Quick bites: Sharks B roster shows heart in 3-2 preseason loss to Ducks

Hi friends! Damian Pow is a new writer to Fear the Fin so give him a warm welcome! The San Jose Sharks fought hard but fell short 3-2 in a preseason tilt against an NHL-ready Anaheim Ducks team. The two teams took different approaches to the roster choices for this game, Anaheim opting for the more NHL-ready roster loaded with veterans that have played over 800 NHL games such as Chris Kreider…

Jeff Skinner knows the grind, and he’s ready for it

Jeff Skinner is 33 now, but you wouldn’t know it talking to him. He’s as chill and thoughtful as ever about the game. Adjusting to a new team isn’t easy, but for Skinner, it’s just part of the job when you’ve been in the league this long. “The longer you’ve been in the league, the more guys you kind of get to know,” Skinner said. “And even if you don’t know guys, you know guys that sort…

Anaheim Ducks at San Jose Sharks Preseason game 4: Lines, game thread and how to watch

The San Jose Sharks are starting to whittle down the roster and that means its time for a little payback. On Monday night, the Ducks trotted out a mostly NHL-ready roster against the rookie-level Sharks and leveled the young players, beating the kids by a 3-2 score. Now, it’s time for the Sharks to show the Ducks younger guns a bit of what the NHL is like. The Sharks welcome the Ducks to SAP…

Slow and steady, Cam Lund shares his mindset

Cam Lund feels like one of those prospects Sharks fans should be excited about. He’s been putting in work and getting ready for his first full season in the organization. When I asked him about what he focused on over the summer, he immediately brought up strength and details. “I think just kind of working on my details last summer. I think putting on muscle was a big thing for me…

Quick bites: Sharks fall to Ducks 5-2 in physical preseason game

In the San Jose Sharks’ final home game of the preseason, the Sharks fell to the Anaheim Ducks 5-2 in a game that was much closer than the final score showed. The Sharks and Ducks opened this one with a ton of energy, but nothing to show for it on the scoreboard. Both goalies came ready. Yaroslav Askarov for San Jose and Calle Clang for Anaheim were locked in right away…

No. 2 Will Smith: Fresh prince still second in line for the throne

Will Smith has spent a lot of time playing second-fiddle. When he was drafted by San Jose, a large chunk of fans were incredulous that General Manager Mike Grier didn’t take Matvei Michkov instead (ignorant of the reality that Michkov almost certainly didn’t want to come to the Sharks, given that he said no to Washington and Arizona). When he spent his post-draft year with Boston College…

Sharks at Golden Knights preseason game 5: Lines, game thread and how to watch

Before we get into it all, let’s talk about the elephant in the room surrounding the Vegas Golden Knights. Skip ahead to after the line if you don’t want to read this part, because there is a bit of a trigger warning. As if you need another reason to say F*** Vegas. It sounds like the Golden Knights are the frontrunners to sign goaltender Carter Hart, one of five former Hockey Canada players…

Quick bites: Cardwell nets hat trick; Sharks devour Golden Knights

In addition to being a young team, the San Jose Sharks are still trying to figure out who will claim the final roster spots and so not all of the players on the ice last night were NHL regulars, or even players with more than a handful of NHL games under their belts. On the other bench, the Vegas Golden Knights trotted out a mostly NHL-ready roster, hoping this final tuneup before the season…

Best guesses at the San Jose Sharks opening night forward lines

Okay, so we made guesses way, way too early before free agency and we made guesses way too early, after the draft and free agency, but before camps started. Now that things have had time to settle down and a few rounds of cuts have been made, we can start thinking about what the opening night roster will look like for the San Jose Sharks. Some of the players have stood out in camp. For example…
