With Alexandar Georgiev officially leaving the San Jose Sharks, GM Mike Grier must find a suitable goaltending replacement as Yaroslav Askarov prepares for his possible NHL debut. Askarov's roleâwhether as part of a tandem or as a starting goaltenderâhighlights the need for a reliable backup. The free agency pool lacks standout options, but players like Alex Lyon and Ilya Samsonov provide potential solutions as Grier seeks stability in net during the team's rebuilding process while nurturing Askarov's development.
Lyon's experience and ability to step up in a tandem situation make him an excellent choice for the rebuilding Sharks as they develop Askarov.
With few standout goaltending options in free agency, having a top prospect like Askarov is crucial for the Sharks' competitive future.
