The San Jose Sharks had a historically bad season in 2023-24, being the first team since the salary-cap era began to fail to achieve 20 wins in an 82-game season.
The Sharks are in a rebuilding phase due to trading away key players like Timo Meier, Erik Karlsson, and Tomas Hertl, with captain Logan Couture limited by injury.
Despite their poor performance, the Sharks have a chance to draft first overall in the 2024 NHL draft, with the best odds in the draft lottery to land the top pick.
Macklin Celebrini, a center from Boston University, is projected as the top North American prospect for the 2024 NHL draft after impressive performances and winning the Hobey Baker Award.
