"The most exciting team in Bay Area sports right now isn't the Warriors or the 49ers. It's not Cal Football or even Tony V's new-approach Giants. No, it's the San Jose Sharks. And it's not even particularly close. The change has been so swift, so decisive, that the baby Sharks have overtaken Bluey as the nightly viewing of choice in the Kurtenbach living room."
"The Sharks aren't just one of the hottest teams in hockey, winners of four straight and six of their last seven going into Thursday's game with the Flames they've jumped over a long-standing hump amid their half-decade rebuild. This team is now finding ways to win after years of figuring out every way to lose. It suits them, too. This is the moment Sharks fans have been waiting for since general manager Mike Grier arrived."
"Because as anyone in the league would have told you, the Sharks were loading up something special in recent years. And with all this accumulated talent (Elite Prospects said the Sharks's prospect pool may be the bestwe've ever seen), the only hope for the league's 31 other teams was that they'd fumble the bag. Which, to be fair, was a viable option."
The San Jose Sharks have become the Bay Area's most exciting sports team, outpacing the Warriors, 49ers, Cal Football, and Giants. A swift and decisive change has turned them into nightly viewing favorites in some households. Collin Graf's game-winning overtime goal epitomizes the team's youthful energy and recent success. The Sharks won four straight and six of seven entering the Flames game, overcoming a half-decade rebuild and finding ways to win after years of losing. General manager Mike Grier's tenure marks a turning point. A deep prospect pool, praised by Elite Prospects, fuels optimism as the team converts potential into results.
