San Jose Sharks 2026-27 season outlook
Written 28 September 2026. San Jose open 2026-27 at home to Florida on 1 October, chasing a first playoff place since 2018-19. Macklin Celebrini, the 20-year-old centre from North Vancouver, leads them as captain. He was named on 25 September, the youngest in club history, less than two months after signing a five-year extension.
The Sharks went 39-35-8 for 86 points last season, 34 more than in 2024-25, and finished fifth in the Pacific, four points behind Los Angeles for the second wild card and out of the playoffs for a seventh straight season. Celebrini scored 45 goals and 115 points, fourth in the NHL and a club record, and no teammate had more than Will Smith’s 59. He also led the Olympic tournament in goals as Canada took silver, captained Canada at the World Championship in May and was voted the IIHF’s male player of the year in July.
General manager Mike Grier rebuilt the defence. Jacob Trouba signed from Anaheim and Darnell Nurse arrived from Edmonton in a trade that sent Shakir Mukhamadullin the other way, both on 1 July, after Michael Kesselring came from Buffalo on 17 June. Mason Marchment signed a five-year deal as a free agent, William Eklund and two prospects went to Ottawa for the ninth pick, which became defenceman Keaton Verhoeff, and Mario Ferraro left for Winnipeg. With the second pick in the draft the Sharks took Swedish winger Ivar Stenberg.
Yaroslav Askarov and Alex Nedeljkovic are the pair in goal again. Askarov went 21-20-4 with a .884 save percentage in 47 starts and Nedeljkovic 18-14-4 with .896, and only Vancouver and Toronto allowed more goals a game than San Jose’s 3.54. Eric Comrie, signed on 1 July, cleared waivers and was sent to the AHL, and Ilya Samsonov was put on waivers on 27 September. Forward Quentin Musty and goalie Kyle Keyser are out long term, and Cam Lund for about a month, all with upper-body injuries.
Stenberg stayed with the NHL group through camp and scored a hat trick in a 10-0 preseason win over Anaheim on 24 September. Ryan Warsofsky, the NHL’s youngest head coach, signed a multiyear extension on 17 September. On Bet99’s July board the Sharks were +3500 for the Stanley Cup, joint 16th of 32.
San Jose Sharks schedule 2026-27
The next five Sharks games, the last five results and the full 84-game regular season, updated twice a day. Use the tabs to switch between them. Times are Eastern, TV is the Canadian broadcaster listed by the NHL, and “2nd night” marks the second game of a back-to-back. The Sharks play 13 back-to-backs this season, and March is the busiest stretch with 16 games.
Where to watch Sharks games in Canada
Counting the NHL’s own listings for the 84 regular-season games, 14 on TVA Sports, 14 on Sportsnet+, 13 on Sportsnet, 6 on Sportsnet 360, 3 on Sportsnet One, 1 on RDSI, 1 on TVA Sports 2 and 1 on Prime Video. Regional listings add 4 on Sportsnet West, 3 on RDS, 2 on TSN2, 2 on TSN5, 1 on TSN3 and 1 on Sportsnet Pacific. 34 games have no Canadian network in the NHL’s listings. A game can appear on more than one channel, so the counts overlap, and listings change through the season.
Of the 34 games without a Canadian network, 30 are the Sharks’ US regional broadcasts and four are US national games. In Canada, Rogers holds the out-of-market rights, so those games stream on Sportsnet+ Premium, which is sold on its own rather than through a TV package, and NHL Centre Ice through a TV provider is the other route. Blackouts apply.
San Jose Sharks roster 2026-27
The current Sharks roster has 31 players, 13 of them born in Canada. Until opening night this is the club’s training-camp list, so it shrinks as players are sent down before the season starts. The status column shows any player on the injury report.

San Jose Sharks odds and how the market sees them
The Sharks markets with the most depth are the season-long futures: the Stanley Cup, the Western Conference, the Pacific Division, a regular-season points total and a yes-or-no price on making the playoffs. On Bet99’s board on 30 July 2026 the Sharks were +3500 to win the Stanley Cup, joint 16th of the 32 teams on the board, level with Ottawa and Toronto. Our Stanley Cup odds page carries the current prices for all 32 teams.
Three things move a Sharks price during the season. The starting goalie matters most, and the injury section above tracks him. The schedule is next: the Sharks play 13 back-to-backs, and second nights are where tired legs and backup goalies show up in the lines. Then there is form, which our power rankings measure each week, and the race itself in the playoff picture. Picks for the weekend slate are in our Saturday predictions column.

San Jose Sharks history
The Sharks came out of a compromise between the NHL and brothers George and Gordon Gund, owners of the Minnesota North Stars. The Gunds sold their share of the North Stars to a group led by Howard Baldwin, who had been pushing for a team in San Jose, and on 9 May 1990 the league approved a Bay Area expansion team for the Gunds, with the right to take a number of Minnesota’s players. The Sharks spent their first two seasons at the Cow Palace in Daly City, lost their first game 4-3 in Vancouver on 4 October 1991 and beat Calgary 4-3 at home four days later for their first win. The 1992-93 team lost 71 games, an NHL record. In 1993-94, their first season at the San Jose Arena, the Sharks improved by 58 points and upset top-seeded Detroit in seven games in the first round.
San Jose have never won the Stanley Cup. Patrick Marleau, the second pick in 1997, became the franchise leader in games, goals and points, and goalie Evgeni Nabokov won the Calder Trophy for 2000-01. The Sharks reached their first conference final in 2004, losing to Calgary. On 30 November 2005 they traded for Joe Thornton, who won the Hart and Art Ross Trophies that season. The 2008-09 team won the Presidents’ Trophy with 53 wins and 117 points, both club records, but lost to eighth-seeded Anaheim in the first round, and the Sharks lost the conference final to Chicago in 2010 and to Vancouver in 2011. In 2016 they beat Los Angeles, Nashville and St. Louis to reach their only Stanley Cup Final, which Pittsburgh won in six games, lifting the Cup at SAP Center on 12 June 2016. A last deep run ended in the 2019 conference final, against St. Louis.
San Jose have not made the playoffs since. Mike Grier, hired on 5 July 2022 as the NHL’s first Black general manager, traded Erik Karlsson to Pittsburgh in August 2023 and rebuilt through the draft. The Sharks finished last in 2023-24 and 2024-25, won the 2024 draft lottery and took Macklin Celebrini first overall, then added Michael Misa second overall in 2025. Captain Logan Couture announced his retirement on 15 April 2025. In 2025-26, Ryan Warsofsky’s second season as coach, they went 39-35-8, 34 points better than a year earlier, and held the West’s second wild card on 2 April before winning one of their next five games. Celebrini’s 115 points broke Thornton’s club record, but the Sharks were eliminated on 13 April and missed the 2026 playoffs by four points.
Most famous player: Joe Thornton
Boston drafted Thornton first overall in 1997, one pick before the Sharks took Patrick Marleau, and traded him to San Jose on 30 November 2005 for Marco Sturm, Wayne Primeau and Brad Stuart. He had 92 points in 58 games for the Sharks that season and 125 in all, winning the Art Ross Trophy as the NHL’s top scorer and the Hart Trophy as its most valuable player. No other Shark has won either award. His 114 points in 2006-07 stood as the club record until Macklin Celebrini had 115 in 2025-26.
Thornton, who grew up in St. Thomas, Ontario, played 15 seasons in San Jose and captained the club from 2010 to 2014. He was part of the 2016 team that reached the Sharks’ only Stanley Cup Final, and his 804 assists are a franchise record; only Marleau has more Sharks points than his 1,055. San Jose retired his No. 19 on 23 November 2024, and the Hockey Hall of Fame elected him in 2025, his first year of eligibility. Since July 2025 he has worked for the club as a player development coach and hockey operations adviser, and Celebrini lived with the Thornton family as a rookie.
Joe Thornton’s Sharks totals, from the NHL’s official statistics: 1,104 games, 251 goals, 804 assists and 1,055 points.
