"While the Sharks tried to offer some intrigue with the second overall pick, ultimately, the team went with what most pundits expected and chose Michael Misa, offering the Sharks a formidable one-two punch down the middle for many years to come."
"It feels like at any moment, a switch could flip and the team could suddenly be unstoppable. That's a heady feeling."
"It's not that Ravensbergen was a stretch at 30th. He was very much supposed to be selected in the first round, but the Sharks weren't expected to choose a goaltender."
"This year, the Sharks seemed content to stand pat with the picks the team had and let the chips fall as they might."
The Sharks experienced a quieter draft day compared to previous years, holding onto their nine picks without significant trades. They chose Michael Misa with the second overall pick, establishing a strong forward group alongside Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith. However, the surprising selection of goaltender Joshua Ravensbergen at 30th overall raised eyebrows as he wasn't the expected choice; the team already has a promising goaltender in Yaroslav Askarov. Despite some surprises, fans are optimistic about the team's future talent.
