Dmitry Orlov signed a two-year, $13 million deal with the San Jose Sharks after spending time with the Carolina Hurricanes. He expressed dissatisfaction with his role in Carolina, where he was often limited to third-pairing minutes. Orlov sees his move to the Sharks as a fresh start, aiming to take on a larger role and contribute meaningfully to a rebuilding team with young talent. He reflects on the challenges faced in his previous two seasons, seeking a more positive experience in San Jose.
"When I signed in Raleigh, you expect one thing, and when you're not showing up or the coach is not believing you, it's always the bottom [pair]."
"It's a new chapter, a new fresh start for me with a new team, a young team, too. So it's going to be a new experience for me."
