The San Jose Sharks will be going into the season with several holes up front, including a vacancy left by former captain and long-time Shark Joe Pavelski, who signed with the Dallas Stars in free agency.
While his roster spot is still a series of question marks, the Sharks have filled the leadership role he left behind by naming center Logan Couture as the team’s tenth captain in franchise history.
“Since I arrived in San Jose four seasons ago, we have been blessed with a tremendous amount of leadership on our roster,” said Head Coach Pete DeBoer in a press release.
