Player review: Jerar Encarnación

2025 stats: 19 G (56 PA), .200 / .214/ .364, .164 ISO, 27 K%, 2 BB%, 57 wRC+ Once upon a time, Jerar Encarnación hit a baseball over a wall in Oakland, California. A lot about that sentence is horribly dated, even fantastical. Once upon a time…professional baseball in Oakland…Jerar Encarnación.  Such a time did […]

Quick bites: Sharks snap Panthers 12 game point streak

That was the loudest the SAP Center had been in a very long time. Alex Wennberg had tunnel vision. The puck slid into the goal, and the place was electric. Yaroslav Askarov was taken aghast. Askarov gives a lot of credit to tonight’s crowd. “That's awesome. I mean, I was like, geez, especially like after first goal, oh my god. The boys love it.” — Annie Moore (@SanJosAnnie) November 9, 2025 The vibes have returned to the Shark Tank. First period The Sharks lost th...

GM #15: Winnipeg Jets @ Anaheim Ducks

The Winnipeg Jets have struggled on this west coast road trip so far, dropping their opening 2 contests to the LA Kings & SJ Sharks while just managing to score 1 goal on opposing tenders.

With injuries disrupting the plans of head coach Scott Arniel from the start of the season, our favourite hockey team has not played nearly as well as they did during their President’s Trophy campaig...

Askarov the difference in Panthers 3-1 loss to Sharks

The Florida Panthers peppered Yaroslav Askarov with 39 shots, but they only managed to find the back of the net once in a tough 3-1 loss to the San Jose Sharks at SAP Center. After carrying the play for most of the first period, the Sharks opened the scoring when Aaron Ekblad couldn’t come up with Vincent Desharnais long clear down the ice and Will Smith took possession and centered to Macklin Celebrini, who one-timed the pass past Daniil Tarasov at 17:25. San Jose doubled the lead 3...

Golden Nuggets: GAME DAY!!!!!!!!!!

How Brock Purdy helped the 49ers prepare for the Rams“It’s been awesome having Brock in there. He’s kind of splitting the reps of the scout team with Adrian.

NHL Rumors: 3 San Jose Sharks Trade Candidates To Watch

Yet, with the Sharks still in the middle of a rebuild, the expectation is that they will end up being sellers this season. Due to this, let's look at three Sharks who could end up being on the move during this season. Alexander Wennberg  Wennberg is a pending unrestricted free agent (UFA) who should grab the attention of playoff teams once we get closer to the deadline. He would be a nice a...

Panthers at Sharks game 16: Lines, game thread and how to watch

The San Jose Sharks need to have short memories once again because it’s back to business tonight against the defending Stanley Cup Champions, the Florida Panthers. It will be another tough test for the Sharks. The Panthers were in San Jose last night, resting and watching the Sharks go toe-to-toe with the Winnipeg Jets, which means there will be no surprises. Worse yet, the Sharks aren’t going to get much in the way of reinforcements. Postgame yesterday, I saw William Eklund walking aroun...

Quick bites: Sharks beat Winnipeg, jump to .500 record

The San Jose Sharks are playing some of the best hockey we’ve seen in years and fans are eating it up. With the team’s 2-1 win over the Winnipeg Jets last night, the Sharks have officially hit a .500 record, something that hadn’t happened since the 2010s we think. How long the Sharks stay here could be fleeting; the team is back at it today against the Stanley Cup Champion Florida Panthers, who did not play yesterday. That said, we’re focused on last night’s win for a few moments, and it was w...

It’s more complicated than just “starting” Brock Purdy

The San Francisco 49ers may want Brock Purdy to start Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams, but he’s recovering from an injury. Maybe he’s getting pushed this week, but he’s recovering from an injury. And yes, he could still dress as QB2 — because he’s recovering from an injury. That’s it. No quarterback controversy, no […]
