  • Sharks' Georgi Romanov: Signs entry-level contract

    Romanov inked a two-year, entry-level contract with the Sharks on Wednesday.

    Romanov had a 2.81 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 31 games in Russia's VHL with Gornyak-UGMK. The 23-year-old will bolster San Jose's organizational goaltending depth, but he shouldn't be expected to start the season in the NHL.

    Nutivaara was on injured reserve for nearly the entirety of what could be his only season with the Sharks. He is a pending unrestricted free agent, and his career could be in jeopardy. Nutivaara appeared in only one game with Florida during the 2021-22 season because of the hip issue.

Overall in 2022-23, he has finished with a 12-21-8 record, 3.48 GAA and .890 save percentage in 43 contests.

  • Sharks' Noah Gregor: Contributes marker Thursday

    Gregor supplied a goal in a 5-2 loss to Edmonton on Thursday.

    Gregor found the back of the net in each of his last two games of 2022-23. With the Sharks' season over, Gregor has finished with 10 goals and 17 points in 57 contests. His final marker of the campaign came midway through the first period to reduce Edmonton's lead to 2-1.

  • Sharks' Steven Lorentz: Gets two points Thursday

    Lorentz provided a goal and an assist in San Jose's 5-2 loss to Edmonton on Thursday.

    Lorentz was held off the scoresheet over his previous three outings. His goal was contributed while the Sharks had the man advantage, and it narrowed Edmonton's lead to 4-2 late in the second period. The Sharks' season is over with Lorentz having 10 goals and 19 points in 80 contests. That's a step up from his 2021-22 totals of eight goals and 13 points, though he recorded those numbers in just 67 appearances.

  • Sharks' James Reimer: In goal Thursday

    Reimer will start Thursday's road game in Edmonton, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

    Reimer will get the second half of a back-to-back after Kaapo Kahkonen took the loss in Calgary on Wednesday. Reimer has already taken a career-high 20 losses, and facing off with one of the league's top offenses Thursday could make it tough for him to end the campaign on a positive note.

  • Sharks' Radim Simek: Draws assist Wednesday

    Simek notched an assist and blocked five shots in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Flames.

    Simek set up Noah Gregor on the Sharks' lone goal of the game midway through the first period. The 30-year-old Simek had gone eight games without a point since returning from a concussion and a foot injury. The defenseman is up to three points with 39 shots on net, 88 hits, 74 blocked shots, 29 PIM and a minus-12 rating through 43 contests in a bottom-pairing role.

  • Sharks' Noah Gregor: Pots lone goal in loss

    Gregor scored a goal on three shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Flames.

    Gregor was able to score on Dustin Wolf in the Calgary netminder's NHL debut. That goal was it for the Sharks' offense, and it's fitting that Gregor got it. The 24-year-old has five tallies and four assists over his last 10 outings, continuing his strong push to end the 2022-23 campaign. He's at nine tallies, 16 points, 114 shots, 96 hits and a minus-10 rating through 56 appearances.

  • Sharks' Kaapo Kahkonen: Kept busy in loss

    Kahkonen stopped 46 of 48 shots in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Flames. The third goal was an empty-netter.

    Kahkonen was very busy between the pipes as the Flames stayed true to their high-volume shooting tendencies. While it was a third straight loss for Kahkonen, he played well. The 26-year-old goalie is down to 9-20-7 with a 3.85 GAA and an .883 save percentage through 37 games, which is likely where he'll finish the season assuming he doesn't start Thursday in Edmonton.

  • Sharks' Jeffrey Viel: Not expected to play

    Viel (upper body) isn't expected to play Wednesday versus the Flames, per the NHL media site.

    Viel's season is likely over, as it seems unlikely he'd return for Thursday's finale in Edmonton. He's gone without a point in four NHL contests while adding six hits, four shots on goal and two PIM.
