That’s been the question since they made it to the 2015-16 Stanley Cup Final. The team’s core was old then. They’re older now. With last season’s squad failing to make a playoff run when they ultimately didn’t look too different from the SCF roster, these are the questions that come up.
Can the Sharks still compete? Can players bounce back from injuries? Has this core aged out of their chance to be contenders?
What is the future of this Sharks team going to look like?
