In this episode, we dive into a week full of action and emotions for the San Jose Sharks. The Sharks kicked things off with a thrilling 5-4 overtime win against the Red Wings, where Celebrini scored an electrifying OT game-winner. Next, they faced a tough 2-5 loss to the Stars, a game that included two empty-netters, making the score seem worse than it was. In St. Louis, the Sharks fell just short in a 2-3 shootout loss, where Askarov made his Sharks debut and showed promise despite an early turnover. The week ended with a 2-4 loss to the Sabres during the unforgettable Joe Thornton jersey retirement ceremony. We also highlight standout performances, including Eklund’s impressive five-game point streak and Celebrini’s clutch heroics in overtime. Plus, we discuss Askarov’s debut and reflect on what’s next for Jumbo as he teams up with Team Canada for the Spengler Cup.

In Episode 222 of The Fin Factor, we break down the Sharks’ recent games against the Anaheim Ducks, LA Kings, and Vegas Golden Knights. We discuss Noah Claxton and Kellen Foster’s performances, Thrun dropping the mitts early, and the Ducks’ bold jersey change. The Kings brought back Gretzky-era jerseys and dominated early, but the Sharks showed intense second-period pressure, led by Granlund’s power-play snipe and Eklund’s unmatched work ethic. However, the Sharks set an unfortunate NHL record with their 9th straight loss to start the season, highlighted by a risky play from Vanecek. We also cover Celebrini’s progress and preview upcoming games against Montreal, LA, Chicago, and Vancouver. Tune in for the latest Sharks news, analysis, and fan Q&A!
