I guess we’re cheering for the Toronto Maple Leafs to beat the Buffalo Sabres tonight. The gap could be two points to first place at the end of the night if that happens.
First period
Mike Matheson tries to start the game with a hit in the neutral zone, and it looked like he caught Igor Chernyshov in the face with his hands. I think Chernyshov was knocked out immediately, as he well to the ice without using his arms to brace himself. He hits his hard on the ice, and appears to ha...
A scary scene at the Bell Centre in Montreal, as San Jose Sharks forward Igor Chernyshov took a high hit to the head from Montreal Canadiens defenseman Mike Matheson and dropped to the ice hard face-first in an ugly fashion. It appeared he was knocked out cold. Igor Chernyshov takes a shot to the head and looks to be knocked out. Then tries to get up and stumbles. pic.twitter.com/eXavUV9lOE — JD Young (@MyFryHole) March 14, 2026 Chernyshov tried to get up a couple of times, but couldn't. He wa...

There were public reports leading up to this weekend’s back-to-back that Brendan Gallagher would probably sit out for one of the games. Yesterday it seemed like that would wait until Sunday’s match versus the Anaheim Ducks, but the decision was made to scrat...
The San Jose Sharks visit the Bell Centre today for the team’s one and only regular-season visit to Montreal. If this game is anything like the last time these two teams played, it’s sure to be a barn burner. When the Sharks and Canadiens met on March 3 at SAP Center, the teams combined to score 12 goals, including six in the third period. While the Sharks ultimately came out on top, you can be sure that today won’t be a cake walk. Montreal is 6-1-3 in its last ten games, and the one loss was ...
There's a first time for everything, as they say. The Montreal Canadiens made a difficult and surprising decision on Saturday, announcing that 14-year veteran forward Brendan Gallagher would be a healthy scratch for the first time in his career, for their game against the San Jose Sharks. Some unfamiliar territory for 14-year vet Brendan Gallagher. pic.twitter.com/DukQlkAg4E — Spittin' Chiclets (@spittinchiclets) March 14, 2026 With only six goals and 20 points in 64 games, the fei...
The San Jose Sharks and Mario Ferraro are starting to look like a team and player heading toward a difficult decision. Ferraro has made it clear he wants to remain in San Jose, and there is still mutual interest in continuing the relationship, but the bigger issue is the term. The Fourth Period's David Pagnotta has said the Sharks are not interested in giving Ferraro the kind of long-term extension he is believed to be seeking.
Sharks only want a short-term Mario Ferraro extensio...

It’s rare that a team scores five goals in a game and doesn’t come away with a win. It’s something that has happened just seven times to the Montreal Canadiens since the COVID-shortened season, but two of those losses came last week on the California road tr...
The San Jose Sharks have locked up another piece of the rebuild era, perhaps sticking with a similar tactic to Team USA’s plans that helped the Americans win gold at the most recent Winter Olympics. That is, every player has a role. The Sharks announced today that 25-year-old center Ty Dellandrea signed a new, two-year deal worth $3.25 million ($1.625 annually).

You can’t win ‘em all, right? The Bruins gave the idea of never losing at home again a pretty good effort, but they fell to the Sharks at TD Garden last night for their first home loss since December. The Sharks jumped out to a 4-0 lead before the Bruins attempted to make a game […]
The San Jose Sharks continue what is arguably the team’s most important extended road trip of the season this afternoon with a stop in Boston to play the Bruins. The Sharks need points on this road trip if the team wants to stay in the playoff hunt and it’s not getting easier as the group gets ready to play the gritty Bruins for game two. San Jose was humbled in Buffalo on Tuesday, seeing just how far the players need to come if they’re looking to be among the league’s more competitive teams m...
Just the facts Know your enemy Game notes See ya tonight!
Buffalo has not been a kind place to the San Jose Sharks, who historically have struggled in road games against the Sabres. With every point at stake in their playoff race as the regular season winds down, the Sharks needed to find a way to leave history in the past. It would not be. Unfortunately, their struggles in upstate New York continued into 2026, with a 6-3 loss to the Atlantic Division’s top team.
Although the Buffalo Sabres haven’t made the playoffs since 2011, the longest...
The Nashville Predators sold off a bunch of pieces ahead of the trade deadline last week, all of them pending unrestricted free agents. And while the really big names didn't go, they tried their darndest to deal off Jonathan Marchessault as well. Meanwhile, the Preds are just one point back of a playoff spot, trailing the Seattle Kraken for the second Wild Card spot, while the LA Kings and San Jose Sharks are right there with them as well. It sounds like the sell-off while chasing a post...
The San Jose Sharks will have to be ready for anything today as the team pays its one and only regular-season visit to Buffalo. The Sabres are still riding high after a knock-down, drag-out fight with the Tampa Bay Lightning, which boosted the team to the top of the Atlantic Division. The two teams accumulated 102 penalty minutes on Sunday night, but the Sabres got the better of it, scoring four power play goals and winning 8-7 in regulation.
Things are only going to get better for the Sa...
The San Jose Sharks found themselves tied to one of the louder post-deadline rumors in the NHL, but general manager Mike Grier wasted little time shutting it down. Following the trade deadline, speculation swirled that the Sharks had offered William Eklund to the New Jersey Devils for defenseman Simon Nemec . Grier on how much the #SJSharks went after #NJDevils Nemec: “That wasn't really, I think that was more kind of, I don't know, Twitter stuff or whatever, whatever it is. It's somewhe...
The Islanders finish their four-game road trip with a stop to help Brayden Schenn pack up in St. Louis, where the Blues are returning from a lottery-spoiling perfect four-game western road trip of their own. In full selloff mode, the Blues somehow took out the Kraken, Sharks, Kings and finally the Ducks, with a 4-0 […]
The San Jose Sharks had little to say after a 2-1 overtime loss to the New York Islanders. It was the team’s second overtime loss in as many days and it was clear that the is one stung a lot more than the 3-2 loss to St. Louis on Friday night.
For the first half of the game, the Sharks seemed to figure out how to hang with the Islanders, but as the game wore on, San Jose got its scoring chances, but could not maintain puck possession as well as the Islanders did. There were a lot of one-a...
Bo Horvat scored with a nifty backhand on a breakaway as the Islanders continued their insane overtime record (9-0) and salvaged a win from their California swing, defeating the San Jose Sharks, 2-1. Brayden Schenn made his Islanders debut and was a presence for both the regulation goal for and against, settling in next to […]
The San Jose Sharks welcome Matthew Schaefer and the New York Islanders into SAP Center for the second night of back-to-back games tonight. This is going to be a tough go-around for the Sharks, as the Islanders had a chance to rest up for the game. New York was in San Jose, watching the Sharks play against the St. Louis Blues last night.
New York is doing well this season and is, surprisingly, in a playoff spot as of this evening. The Islanders sit in third in the Metropolitan Division, w...
In the closing stretch of the season, the margin for error can shrink quickly. On Friday night, the San Jose Sharks were reminded how costly those details can be.
Despite tying the game up twice and forcing overtime, the Sharks fell 3–2 to the St. Louis Blues at the SAP Center, looking for a single point in a game where execution proved itself decisive.
San Jose never led, but managed to answer both St. Louis goals before overtime. Still, puck management issues and defensive lapses c...
On February 23rd in 2010, Nashville Predators blueliner Shea Weber suited up for Canada at the 2010 Winter Olympics and blasted a slapshot past San Jose Sharks German goaltender Thomas Greiss that tore through the net.
When questioned whether Weber had ever witnessed a puck go through the net, the deadpanned defenseman remarked, "Yeah, I do it every day". Canada beat Germany that night by a score
It had been a little while since the Oilers faced a true Stanley Cup contender. After returning from the Olympic break, Edmonton played the Ducks, Kings, Sharks, and Senators. Against that group of playoff hopefuls and bubble teams, the Oilers split the four games, scoring 22 goals while allowing 16. The Eastern Conference-leading Hurricanes rolled…
General Manager Chris Patrick of the Washington Capitals made a move to bolster the team's blueline today. In addition to t rading away 17-year veteran John Carlson , he added Timothy Liljegren in a trade with the San Jose Sharks . Patrick didn't spend much to acquire him with a 2026 4th-round pick, not much to release him from the clutches of general manager Mike Grier and the Sharks, who are another Pacific Division team in a rebuilding stage.
Off to Washington! 🦅 Timo...
The trade deadline has come and gone, and both the St. Louis Blues and San Jose Sharks made some moves at the deadline. The Blues did more selling than the Sharks at the deadline. It makes sense, the Blues are well out of the playoffs and need to restock the cupboards for a retool at the very least.
Today, the Blues traded defenseman Justin Faulk to the Detroit Red Wings for Justin Holl and Dmitri Buchelnikov and a pair of picks. St. Louis also traded captain Brayden Schenn to the New Yor...
The San Jose Sharks have traded defenseman Timothy Liljegren to the Washington Capitals. As of this moment, we’re still waiting to see what the return is on this trade.
Update: The Sharks will receive Vegas’ 2026 fourth- round pick from Washington in exchange for Liljegren. Remember that San Jose gave up Matt Benning, a 2025 third-round pick and a 2026 sixth-round pick to the Toronto Maple Leafs to acquire Liljegren.
The 26-year-old Liljegren never seemed to find a place in the Shar...
