Ben Shelley: Where do the Sharks stand without Erik Karlsson?

Good start to their rebuild, but this year will have to see them add further picks and hopefully some stand out young talent.

Creating cap space, not being too long-term committed to other contracts (especially on older players) is a good start.

They stunk with him and now they will really stink without him
Could not happen to a nicer team in Silicon Valley Land of fruit and nuts

San Jose is pretty much where Chicago was last year. Kinda painful to get through, but ultimately it should be worth it. Only issue is that they have two forwards locked up well into their 30's at high numbers. Hopefully, they can stay productive for that long.

Penguins hire Doug Wilson.

someone didn't have a good time at The Power Exchange...

Yeah with the current lineup, the Sharks will be well placed in the Celebrini derby. That's likely the best case scenario, getting high end talent in the upcoming draft.
