The San Jose Sharks are confirmed to finish last in the NHL standings, securing a 25.5% chance to win the upcoming draft lottery. With a record of 20-48-11, their season struggles are evident, but the team remains optimistic for future prospects. Coach Ryan Warsofsky acknowledges the difficulties but believes there has been some progress. The team previously had success in the draft, selecting a promising player last year. This season, they could select top talent if they win the lottery, especially with defenseman Matthew Schaefer available, despite his recent injury.
The Sharks know it's been a struggle this season for wins, but we've made some progress, and we'll talk after the season to look forward.
By finishing with the fewest points, the Sharks will have a 25.5% chance of winning the draft lottery and are guaranteed a top-three selection.
