SAN JOSE — With the NHL All-Star Game returning next week to the South Bay for the first time in 22 years, the Sharks organization eagerly wants to bring another of the league’s marquee events back to the region — an outdoor stadium game.
John Tortora, co-president Sharks Sports & Entertainment, said Friday the team is planning to bid for a second NHL Stadium Series game. In Feb. 2015, an announced crowd of 70,205 watched the Sharks and the Los Angeles Kings play at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.
“We will bid on it again, we hope to get it again and we expect we’ll get it again, simply because our fans support it,” Tortora said.
