Sharks prospects start rookie tournament: What the brass is looking for (and how to watch)

SAN JOSE — For three games, starting Saturday, the Sharks prospects that are taking part in the Anaheim Rookie Faceoff Tournament will have the undivided attention of the organization’s scouts, managers and coaches in attendance.

So, yes, it’s important for these players — ranging in age from 18 to 24 — to begin to stand out now before the Sharks’ main training camp begins next Friday.

“You’re looking for the compete factor in guys,” Sharks general manager Doug Wilson said.

“Basically, you want to see what guys jump out at you,” Barracuda coach Roy Sommer said.
