Logan Couture points out Vezina injustice
Every player probably feels like their team's goaltender had a shot at the Vezina this year, and many could offer up a solid argument as to why. The San Jose Sharks' goaltender, Antti Niemi, had an outstanding season. He finished with a .924 save percentage and a 2.16 goals against average and helped the Sharks through some genuinely tough patches this past season.

Cam Gore: Sharks keep McLellan in San Jose
The San Jose Sharks have extended their head coach’s contract showing confidence in the organization’s all-time leading bench boss.
Todd McLellan’s extension has been earned and why wouldn’t they extend his tenure he has done everything expected from him, except win the Cup; and I don’t throw that comment in there like it is some small feat.
In his...
Sharks give Todd McLellan contract extension
It wasn’t that long ago, when the Sharks were in a month-long tailspin that cast the playoffs in doubt, that many were wondering whether Todd McLellan would survive the season. But the Sharks recovered, and even though the season ended with the usual postseason heartbreak, McLellan showed enough to earn the trust of GM Doug Wilson.
The Sharks extended their head coach’s contract...
McLellan Staying In San Jose
from TSN,
The San Jose Sharks have extended the contract of head coach Todd McLellan.
Since being named the Sharks head coach on June 12, 2008, the 45-year-old McLellan has posted a 220-108-48 record. During that span, the Sharks have captured a Presidents' Trophy (2009), three Pacific Division titles and made back-to-back appearances in the Western Conference Final...
Cam Gore: Who should the Sharks buyout?
With the new CBA (Collective Bargaining Agreement) teams have the option of buying out two players, but it is a one-time buyout and the clock is ticking.
We have already seen the effects of the buyout in San Jose as current Shark Scott Gomez was bought out by the Montreal Canadians and re-signed here. He was making 7.0 million in Montreal and the league minimum of $700,000 with the Sharks....
Sharks fans lose bet, have to get matching temporary Kings tattoos (photo)
A couple of San Jose Sharks fans, obviously feeling tremendously overconfident after their favorite NHL team’s easily dispatched the Vancouver Canucks in the first round, made a bet with some office colleagues over the outcome of the Western Conference semifinals showdown between the Sharks and the defending Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings. The wager? [...]The post Sharks...
Bringing Back Raffi Torres Would be a Good Fit for the San Jose Sharks
There is a growing sense that Raffi Torres’ stint with the San Jose Sharks may extend beyond his brief 11 game regular season and first round playoff appearance during this recently finished 2012-2013 season.
Acquired in a trade at the trade deadline from the Phoenix Coyotes, the one-time nemesis of the Sharks, added speed and physicality to the Sharks from the moment he laced...
Sharks once again fall short of Stanley Cup
For all the talk about how this version of the San Jose Sharks was different, the disappointing end to the season was all too familiar for an organization still waiting for its first trip to the Stanley Cup.
The Sharks were eliminated from the playoffs Tuesday night with a 2-1 loss to the defending Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings, failing to convert on a few agonizingly close...

HOCKEY FLOPPING
Sharks-Kings game featured a lot of diving
My entire life, I've been conditioned to believe that NHL players are the toughest of the tough. Hockey players are supposed to be the ones who get hit in the face with a puck and then get right up and keep playing. They get sliced with a skate, apply their own tourniquet with tape from their stick, and then finish their shift like nothing happened. You can probably imagine...
