Craig Button joins the San Jose Hockey Now Podcast this week!The TSN draft guru thinks Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith might make a Crosby-Malkin like impact on the San Jose Sharks, who he'd consider for San Jose at No. 14, and an underrated Sharks prospect that he really likes. (1:22:52)But before we get to Craig, Keegan and I talk about the San Jose Sharks coaching search. (2:18)Then, we chat about four positions that the Sharks should target this off-season if they want to be more competitive, and discuss J.G. Pageau, Dakota Joshua, Dylan DeMelo, and Sean Walker as realistic possibilities. Sheng also suggests a couple more intriguing names in this middle class of the free agency market.

With the World Juniors over, Hadi Kalakeche and Sebastian High of Locked on NHL Prospects join to discuss how the San Jose Sharks prospects looked in the tournament.

Then, discuss Kasper Halttunen and why he needs to continue to develop the rest of his game to go with his NHL-caliber shot. Next, check in on the Swedes between Filip Bystedt and Mattias Hävelid and how Haveild's tournament left Hadi even more confident in the defenseman's ceiling. We also touch on Jake Furlong and why he was the most impressive defensive defenseman for Team Canada.

After covering the other teams in the Pacific Division, it's time to look at the State of the Franchise: San Jose Sharks. Start by examining how the Sharks have finally accepted their fate as a rebuilding team by trading away major pieces like Timo Meier, Brent Burns, and Erik Karlsson for future assets. Analyze the Karlsson trade, and the thought process behind it for General Manager Mike Grier and how the Sharks are working to clean up their cap space. Next, review the offseason and some of the Sharks' top draft picks, including Will Smith, Quentin Musty, Kasper Halttunen, and Luca Cagnoni. Then, the theme of free agency was buy-low candidates, including Anthony Duclair, Filip Zadina, and Mackenzie Blackwood. Finally, a look ahead to the Sharks 2023-24 season: what are the worst/best case scenarios for the Sharks this offseason, and where will they finish in the Pacific Division?Check out the podcast on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BirddogsGo to birddogs.com/LOCKEDONNHL or enter promo code LOCKEDONNHL for a free water bottle with any order.

The San Jose Sharks rookies hit the ice this weekend, and there were plenty of takeaways from the Sharks' two wins. Start with the "veterans" and William Eklund's solid start on Friday afternoon, Thomas Bordeleau's awesome Saturday night, and Ozzy Wiesblatt's renewed confidence. Then, look at how some of the new players looked, including why Quentin Musty will be a monster in the future, Kasper Halttunen's shooting, and Anthony Vincent is on his way to being a San Jose Barracuda fan favorite. Also, check in on the early goalie battle and why Magnus Chrona has an early edge on Georgi Romanov. Finally, how Mike Grier's new look defensive group looked outstanding this weekend and where Gannon Laroque will play hockey this fall.

Training camp came and went in a flash. Mike Stubbs and Kyle Grimard recap it and hear from Kasper Halttunen on saunas and shooting pucks, from the newest Knight, Henry Brzustewicz, who has added some extra spice to the London/Kitchener rivalry. The guys also look ahead to back-to-back pre-season games against the Sarnia Sting on Sept. 9 and 10.
It's time for our pre-season top-10 San Jose Sharks prospects rankings! Keegan and Sheng counted down their respective top-10 lists, then talked about some honorable mentions at the end. At No. 10, Sheng has Kasper Halttunen (2:30). Which San Jose Sharks prospect, not in Sheng's top-10, did an NHL scout slot ahead of Halttunen? Keegan also had Halttunen at No. 10. At No. 9, Sheng has Thomas Bordeleau (5:00). Sheng got a lot of pushback from scouts on this ranking. He likes Bordeleau's talent a lot, but just isn't sure if it will all come together. Keegan has Mattias Havelid (9:58) at No. 9 and explained why he's so high on the smallish Swedish defenseman. At No. 8, Sheng has Danil Gushchin (13:05). Keegan has Bordeleau (14:50). Keegan just isn't sure where Bordeleau slots in an NHL line-up. At No. 7, Sheng has Cam Lund (18:00). Why was it so tough for Lund at Northeastern this past year? Keegan also explains why he had Lund outside of his top-10. Keegan has Gushchin at No. 7. Why is Gushchin Keegan's favorite San Jose Sharks prospect? At No. 6, Sheng has Henry Thrun (26:10). A scout said that Thrun deserved to be in his own Sharks prospects tier, ahead of Gushchin and company. Keegan also had Thrun at No. 6. Why might Thrun not make the San Jose Sharks' opening night? At No. 5, both Sheng and Keegan had Quentin Musty (33:40). What should we expect from Musty this season? At No. 4, Sheng had Filip Bystedt (39:25). One scout suggested that the San Jose Sharks' top-four prospects, including Bystedt, is sort of their “Core Four.” Keegan also had Bystedt here and thinks he's gotten faster this year. They also talk about how Bystedt has shot up ahead over all the 2022 Swedish first-rounders who were drafted ahead of him. At No. 3, Sheng had Shakir Mukhamadullin (48:15). There was real debate here: One scout had Mukhamadullin ahead of William Eklund, while another had him a couple spots back. Keegan also had Mukhamadullin at No. 3. They revisit the Mukhamadullin vs. Alexander Holtz debate. And at No. 1, both Keegan and Sheng have Will Smith (56:07). That means Eklund at No. 2. One scout still considers Eklund a franchise-caliber talent. Keegan says that short of Andrew Agozzino, Eklund was the best Barracuda forward last year. Are these top-five Sharks prospects the best top-five group of Sharks prospects in 20 or so years? (1:10:20) Finally, Sheng and Keegan talk about some of the San Jose Sharks prospects who just missed their top-10 rankings, like Nikita Okhotiuk, Tristen Robins, Luca Cagnoni, Ethan Cardwell, Jake Furlong, Gannon Laroque, Artem Guryev, and Eetu Makiniemi (1:13:25). Sheng also shares what he's heard about 2023 seventh-round pick Yegor Rimashevsky. Finally, a lookback at San Jose Hockey Now's top-10 Sharks prospects in Oct. 2021 (1:21:35).Listen to the San Jose Hockey Now Podcast — it's a new link — on Apple Podcasts and Spotify and Google Podcasts.Subscribe to the San Jose Hockey Now Podcast YouTube channel, we're trying to get over 1K subscribers! ★ Support this podcast ★

However, GM Kyle Dubas isn't a fan of the buyout maneuver.The most popular Penguins buyout or trade candidates are Mikael Granlund (3:30) and Jeff Petry (4:30). Why is Petry an unattractive trade candidate for the San Jose Sharks and an unattractive buyout candidate for Pittsburgh?How about the Carolina Hurricanes? Could they still be in the Karlsson hunt even after signing Tony DeAngelo (7:55)? Sheng thinks so. Also, their cap and contracts situation is way better than Pittsburgh's (11:00)Keegan and Sheng share their predictions about what happens with Karlsson during this Pittsburgh buyout window (15:00)Next, Keegan and Sheng move on to how the San Jose Sharks performed at the World Junior Summer Showcase (25:00).How impressive was Will Smith for Team USA (26:10)?

Nico Sturm joins the San Jose Hockey Now Podcast! But before we congratulate Nico on winning a silver medal at the World Championships, and get his thoughts on the Erik Karlsson trade rumors and the San Jose Sharks' acquisition of his Team Germany teammate Leon Gawanke – Keegan McNally and Sheng critique each other's Erik Karlsson's trade proposals, discuss third teams that might be willing to participate in a Karlsson trade, and chat about the Filip Zadina and Kasper Haltunnen signings. First, Erik Karlsson (2:49). There's doubt that a deal will get done. Sheng questions how serious the Carolina Hurricanes are in their pursuit of Karlsson (8:13). Next, let's have some fun – keep in mind that these are purely speculative trade proposals! What does Sheng think of Keegan's Karlsson to Pittsburgh Penguins' proposal (13:00)? Keegan explains how the San Jose Sharks could get back more from the Pens while only retaining $2 million AAV a year of Karlsson's remaining contract (14:52). Sheng is frustrated with websites and accounts who are passing off his proposals as actual trade offers (23:54). What does Keegan think of Sheng's Karlsson to Pittsburgh proposal (30:28)? Sheng explains his reasoning (32:28) and how his offer echoes what the San Jose Sharks got from the Canes for Brent Burns last summer, then Keegan responds (33:48). What does Keegan think of Sheng's Karlsson to Hurricanes proposal (39:50)? Sheng explains his rationale (40:16), including the Sharks liking Jack Drury (42:32). Keegan reacts (45:06). However, a Karlsson trade might not be as simple as Keegan and Sheng's proposals (48:12). A source told Sheng, “I've heard that it's going to take three teams to get it done.” Could a third team take on a rerouted contract like Jeff Petry, Mikael Granlund, or Teuvo Teravainen (49:54)? Sheng proposes an unusual retention strategy for the San Jose Sharks (54:12): How about having a third team retain just $1 million AAV for the next four years of Karlsson's contract? What teams might be a middle man (56:32) for a proposal like that? Marco D'Amico of Montreal Hockey Now, Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports, and Hart Levine of Puckpedia offer their wisdom on this: Marco says the Montreal Canadiens aren't likely to help. Craig says that the Arizona Coyotes aren't the dumping ground that they used to be. Hart thinks, even if the AAV is low, that retaining for four years will require an overpay (1:10:14). So what's an overpay trade for $1 million AAV retention for four years? Should the San Jose Sharks pay that price? Does Sheng think a Karlsson deal will happen this off-season (1:06:58)? Next, we talk about the Filip Zadina signing (1:13:25). Also, Sheng shares information on a genuine uncertainty about where Kasper Halttunen (1:18:55) will play next year. Finally, before we get to the Sturm interview, Sturm shares an off-to-the-side scouting report about Gawanke (1:26:30). Now, Nico Sturm (1:30:11)! Sturm talks about winning a silver medal at the World Championships (1:30:46). Sturm says the World Championships was the first time his older brother has seen him play live since he left Germany as a teenager (1:36:10). Sturm compares winning for Germany as opposed to winning a Stanley Cup (1:38:30). Sturm shares an under-the-radar German teammate that might have a better chance at the NHL than people think (1:41:15). Sturm talks about his reaction to a possible Erik Karlsson trade (1:44:18) and how the San Jose Sharks move forward without him. In Nico's opinion, what type of players do the San Jose Sharks need (1:46:50)? What type of team?Listen to the San Jose Hockey Now Podcast — it's a new link — on Apple Podcasts and Spotify and Google Podcasts. ★ Support this podcast ★
Will Smith joins the San Jose Hockey Now Podcast!Before we get to our interview with the latest San Jose Sharks sensation, Keegan McNally and Sheng Peng talked about the culmination of Sharks development camp, Thursday night's prospects scrimmage (1:55).Sheng shares pre and post-scrimmage insights from Sharks director of player development Todd Marchant and San Jose Barracuda head coach John McCarthy about development camp, as he and Keegan talk about how Team Teal's Will Smith (4:15), Cam Lund (9:54), Theo Jacobsson (11:05), Kasper Halttunen (15:42), Michael Fisher (17:05), Luca Cagnoni (18:50), and Eric Pohlkamp performed in the scrimmage. They then chat about the performances of Team White's Quentin Musty (23:15), Filip Bystedt, Ethan Cardwell, Brandon Svoboda (31:18), Ozzy Wiesblatt (33:32), Jake Furlong (36:04), Mattias Havelid, Dylan Ernst (39:38), and Valtteri Pulli (40:30).Sheng adds some interesting Marchant/McCarthy thoughts about the development camps of Henry Thrun (44:20), Nick Cicek, and Thomas Bordeleau (45:48).Then, Keegan and Sheng review what the San Jose Sharks have done so far in free agency, including the acquisitions of Anthony Duclair (51:53) and Leon Gawanke (57:08), and the signings of Givani Smith (1:05:57) and Kyle Burroughs.They also talk about why it makes sense for the Sharks to be in on remaining high-end free agents Matt Dumba and Vladimir Tarasenko (1:13:41), even in the midst of their rebuild. With the help of independent scouting service Team 33 (1:19:00), Sheng gets into why Dumba, despite his recent statistical decline, could be a fantastic fit for San Jose.Next, Keegan and Sheng talk about Erik Karlsson (1:27:50), and why the lack of suitors for Karlsson could spell trouble for the Sharks.Finally, Will Smith (1:36:55)! Smith talks about who's the best bowler among the Sharks prospects (1:37:32), why he chose No. 2 as his jersey number (1:37:58), how his sister Grace supported his career (1:40:40), carrying one of his grandpa Bill's last business cards at the Draft (1:41:35), his dog Rigney and being the great-great grandson of Chicago White Sox owner Charles Comiskey (1:42:45), his favorite nickname -- non-Fresh Prince or Smitty category (1:43:50), and hooking William Eklund up with a sponsorship deal with Chipotle (1:44:50). ★ Support this podcast ★
WARNING: This podcast was recorded on the fly in Nashville and our interview with Patrick Marleau was conducted on a noisy Draft floor, so our video, audio, and internet connection aren't optimal in this episode. Apologies!Patrick Marleau joins the San Jose Hockey Now Podcast!But before we get to Mr. Shark, Keegan and Sheng offer their reactions to what the San Jose Sharks did with their nine picks in the 2023 Draft (1:11). Sheng talks about some of the new things that he learned about Michkov in Nashville (2:15) and the rest of the Sharks' Draft (13:05), headlined by Will Smith. Sheng also shares his belief on who the Sharks would've drafted if Adam Fantilli had gone to the Anaheim Ducks at No. 2, like originally expected. We talk about Adam Gajan and the San Jose Sharks not taking a goalie at No. 36 (16:30). Sheng then grades San Jose's Draft (17:15).Keegan and Sheng keep the conversation going in Sheng's Lyft, talking about the San Jose Sharks not qualifying Noah Gregor (17:51) and Jonah Gadjovich (20:52). Keegan talks about today's RFA decisions as a continuation of Grier's purging of the old guard's players, and how the Sharks have opened up spots on the roster for more talented and accomplished forwards who weren't qualified like Daniel Sprong and Max Comtois (23:30).Keegan then shares his thoughts about the Draft (27:55). Why Will Smith (28:30)? He's a big fan of Quentin Musty and Kasper Hultunnen (31:30). He also touched on Brandon Svoboda (32:45), the three straight defensemen, Luca Cagnoni, Axel Lander, Eric Pohlkamp that the San Jose Sharks drafted (34:30), and the Sharks' last two picks, David Klee and Yegor Rimashevsky. We also talked about how the "Russian factor" wasn't really a factor (37:15) in the Draft.Then, we preview the San Jose Sharks and free agency (40:00). Why does Sheng think that Erik Gustafsson might fit the Sharks (41:30)? How about Danton Heinen (44:15)? Keegan then shares his UFA thoughts (44:55). James van Riemsdyk (46:00)?Finally, Patrick Marleau talks about announcing the Smith pick (49:15), joining the San Jose Sharks front office and the development staff (50:15), becoming a team GM or a President (52:15), working with Mike Ricci (52:45), his family (53:20), and finally, how hard he's trying to get Joe Thornton to join him in the Sharks front office.Check out the Marleau video interview, there are some fun cameos! ★ Support this podcast ★
The San Jose Sharks finished the second day of the NHL Draft by adding several new players to their prospect pool. Start with Finnish power forward Kasper Halttunen and his ability to rip a shot on the power play. Then get to know Brandon Svoboda from Youngstown of the USHL and why he could be a potential bottom-six center (7:00). Why the Sharks selecting Luca Cagnoni in the 4th is a bet on the potential for a player who was considered a second-rounder (12:00). Mike Grier also added some more physicality with Swedish defenseman Axel Landen from the HV71 (15:30) and a combination of physicality and scoring pop with Erik Pohlkamp (17:00). In the seventh round, David Klee (21:00) and Yegor Rimashevsky () are potential longterm flyers (23:00).
