Yaroslav Askarov is poised to be the starting goalie for the San Jose Sharks next season, assuming he is healthy. However, depth in goaltending remains a critical area needing attention, with Askarov the only goalie under contract for the 2025-2026 season. The future of goalie Alexandar Georgiev and the performance of Georgi Romanov, set for his first NHL start, are in question. The Sharks have struggled defensively, as indicated by their poor goals against average and save percentage, necessitating significant improvements for the upcoming season.
There's been good games, bad games, but I think it has been a good season. But I can be better and will be better because we still have some games.
The Sharks entered Wednesday with a league-worst 3.66 goals against average and a save percentage of .883, tied for 29th in the NHL.
Warsofsky described the Sharks' goaltending this season as 'OK,' illustrating the importance of the position with examples from previous games.
