On shorter leash, Sharks’ Aaron Dell out to prove himself once again

SAN JOSE — The situation that Sharks goalie Aaron Dell finds himself in this season — of having to show that he belongs in the NHL — is nothing new.

“Through my whole career, I’ve had to prove myself every year,” Dell said Monday. “I’m kind of used to that.”

Perhaps those experiences can be of some benefit now, as Dell, 30, tries to remain the Sharks’ backup to No. 1 goalie Martin Jones. Antoine Bibeau and Josef Korenar, the Barracuda’s 2018-19 goalies, and Andrew Shortridge, who was signed out of Quinnipiac in April, are the other goalies in camp.
