For the first time since the 2014-15 season, the San Jose Sharks failed to make the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
They didn’t just miss the playoffs by a point or two though. The Sharks that made it all the way to the Western Conference Finals just a season ago, were one of the worst teams in the National Hockey League the following season.
Out of 31 teams in the NHL, the Sharks stood at 29th. Out of eight teams in the Pacific Division, they were in eighth place. Out of 15 teams in the Western Conference, they came in 15th.
