San Jose Sharks NHL Betting Online

The misery for the San Jose Sharks is continuing this year, and the end is nowhere in sight. It is a pipe dream for the Sharks to make the playoffs. Although the Sharks win percentage is up marginally, it is still the worst in the Western Conference. The Sharks have a new head coach, Ryan Warsofsky, but the same problem of an inadequate roster. The last playoff year for the San Jose Sharks was in 2019. The Sharks posted a win percentage of .287 last year, the third worst in history and the worst since 1993, the second year that the franchise existed. The eternal rebuild goes on.

San Jose Sharks History

Founded in 1991 as the first NHL expansion team since the 1979 NHL-WHA merger, the San Jose Sharks were the league’s second attempt at establishing a foothold in the San Francisco Bay area. From the start, the Sharks have been a success. The term “model franchise” is often used in describing the San Jose NHL entry.

Since 1998, the Sharks have missed the playoffs just four times. Their best run was in 2016 when they made it to the Stanley Cup Final after several teams with far better records failed to get there. Top players in Sharks history include Doug Wilson and Owen Nolan, Patrick Marleau, Joe Thornton, and Joe Pavelski.

The Sharks have had good fan support through the years but no margin for error. The San Jose market has endless entertainment options and limitless sports dates available on the calendar. Thus, the pressure is always on to win. Patches of empty seats have started to show at home games and serve as a warning of what will happen if San Jose doesn’t start winning again soon.

The Sharks have played at the SAP Center since 1993. Commonly referred to as “The Shark Tank,” the SAP Center boasts one of the loudest crowds in hockey. A continuing rebuild will test fan loyalty this year.
