The San Jose Sharks, following the trade of center Mikael Granlund and defenseman Cody Ceci to the Dallas Stars, have faced challenges in their offensive performance. With the loss of Granlund, who was leading the team with 45 points, the Sharks have managed only one even-strength goal in two games. Despite these struggles, players like Jake Walman are stepping up with increased ice time. Winger Fabian Zetterlund acknowledges the loss, yet emphasizes the team needs to adapt and perform moving forward as they prepare to face Granlund and Ceci with the Stars.
We miss him. He's a great player," Sharks winger Fabian Zetterlund said of Granlund after Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Vancouver Canucks. "But it's the guys in here that are going to do it."
Jake Walman was already a heavily relied-upon defenseman for the Sharks before the deal... he isn't any worse for the wear, adding, "I feel pretty good. I feel full of energy."
