Sharks 12 Days of Hockeymas: 9 Straight Playoff Appearances

Sharks 12 Days of Hockeymas: 9 Straight Playoff Appearances

December 16th, 2020 The ’12 Days of Christmas’ is a classic holiday song first published in its current form in 1908. In a nod to the classic carol, join The Hockey Writers as we count down the 12 Days of Hockeymas. Each day, we will provide you with a piece of hockey history as we eagerly await the start of the 2020-21 NHL season. On...
Today in Hockey History: July 25

Today in Hockey History: July 25

July 25th, 2020 One of the most colorful coaches in the history of the National Hockey League got his first job in the league on this date. Also, a pair of elite goaltenders share a birthday today. Neilson Lands First NHL Job The Toronto Maple Leafs named Roger Neilson their new head coach, on July 25, 1977, replacing Hockey Hall of Famer Red...
Sharks' Best Players in Franchise History

Sharks' Best Players in Franchise History

June 1st, 2020 Since the San Jose Sharks' first season in 1991, there has been a multitude of extraordinary talent throughout the organization. From the top goal scorers, assist leaders, and skaters, to the best goalies and defensemen, the Sharks organization and fans have seen it all. But which players have been the best of the best? Who has...
THW's Goalie News: Driedger Stepping Up, Rask's Birthday & History

THW's Goalie News: Driedger Stepping Up, Rask's Birthday & History

March 10th, 2020 Monday evening’s National Hockey League schedule may not have been the busiest one, but it had plenty of playoff implications as we head into the final month of the regular season. A backup is shining in Florida and keeping his team’s postseason aspirations alive. Plus, one of the game’s best goalies is celebrating a birthday. And...
Top 3 All-Time San Jose Sharks Goalies

Top 3 All-Time San Jose Sharks Goalies

February 11th, 2020 The top three all-time San Jose Sharks goalies is a tough list to come up with. While there have been many goaltenders who have prowled the blue paint at the SAP Center, only a handful can be considered the best in franchise history. The Hockey Writers boiled down the list and ranked the trio of Sharks goalies who are the best of Team...
Most Games Played By A Goalie in One NHL Season

Most Games Played By A Goalie in One NHL Season

January 17th, 2020 Marc Denis can proudly say that he etched his name into the hockey history book somewhere. He's earned a spot on this list of most games played by a goalie in one NHL season. As research and skepticism seems to grow on the topic of goalie fatigue, it sure seems like many of the names on this list won't be bumped off anytime...
Sharks Hire Experience in New Goalie Coach

Sharks Hire Experience in New Goalie Coach

December 26th, 2019 Perhaps the most interesting story of the San Jose Sharks’ recent coaching move lies not with Bob Boughner taking over as head coach, but with former Sharks goaltender Evgeni Nabokov, who has been named as the new goaltending coach for the team. Nabokov was drafted by the Sharks in 1994 during the ninth round, as the 219th pick...
Mantas Armalis Adjusting and Winning

Mantas Armalis Adjusting and Winning

November 27th, 2016 After largely being relegated to the bench during the San Jose Barracuda's long road trip, goaltender Mantas Armalis now finds himself as the number one goaltender due to an injury to Troy Grosenick. Armalis said he was fighting a cold as well during the road trip but looks to be returning to health as the Barracuda need him to step in...
The San Jose Sharks Franchise Four

The San Jose Sharks Franchise Four

November 25th, 2015 The Franchise Four. The Mount Rushmore. Four players who tell the story of an organization. In this series, I’ll be taking a look at the history of all 30 NHL squads. For criteria, I’m choosing one forward, defenceman, goaltender and a wild card from any position. Since entering the NHL in 1991, the San Jose Sharks have qualified...
New York Islanders Poised To Solve Five-Year Mystery

New York Islanders Poised To Solve Five-Year Mystery

October 17th, 2015 From complaints about the goal horn to the uneasiness of the transition to the Barclays Center, Islanders fans have had quite a lot to talk about over the last month. Attempting to carry over tradition from Nassau to Kings County (condensing of divisional banners, among other things) hasn't gone as seamlessly as some fans or...
San Jose Sharks Mt. Rushmore: Who Makes the Cut?

San Jose Sharks Mt. Rushmore: Who Makes the Cut?

September 18th, 2015 This year, the San Jose Sharks are celebrating their 25th anniversary season. Being a relatively young franchise, they don't have much of a history in terms of Hall of Fame players. Rob Blake and Jeremy Roenick each played only two seasons with the Sharks at the end of their storied careers. Igor Larionov was a fan favorite in the...
The Most Gut-Wrenching Moments in San Jose Sharks History

The Most Gut-Wrenching Moments in San Jose Sharks History

August 4th, 2015 It's August. In the hockey world, it's a good time to look back. Next month, as teams hit training camp, it'll be time to look forward. When it comes to gut-wrenching moments, the moments that really hit me the hardest in San Jose Sharks team history, they fall into two categories. Playoff failures and player injuries. I'm not going...
Nabokov, Toskala, Niemi, & the Sharks' Goalie Woes

Nabokov, Toskala, Niemi, & the Sharks' Goalie Woes

May 25th, 2015 Skaters are More Important But... Yours truly is a firm believer that the 18 skaters in front of a goaltender are much more important than having a “stud” goaltender. For example, three of the four teams left remaining in the Stanley Cup playoffs don't have starting goaltenders who are considered "elite". Corey Crawford, Ben...
How Important Is Jaroslav Halak for the Islanders?

How Important Is Jaroslav Halak for the Islanders?

March 18th, 2015 One major issue the Islanders had in their playoff series two years ago with Pittsburgh was the inability for the team to get a big save when they needed it.  It was almost a foregone conclusion when the Penguins went down the ice on an odd man rush that the puck would end up in the back of the net.  The Islanders believe they have...
Thank You Evgeni Nabokov

Thank You Evgeni Nabokov

February 12th, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnVPSiJ7g2g It's official: Evgeni Nabokov has retired as a member of the San Jose Sharks. This was an event that most of the hockey world saw coming, especially after San Jose acquired him from the Tampa Bay Lightning earlier this week. It was a very emotional night, but it was amazing to see the...
