2026 NHL draft: The case for Carson Carels

Virtually all avenues are open to the San Jose Sharks with the second overall pick in the 2026 NHL Entry Draft, but as they told Spiderman, “With great power comes great responsibility.” Despite the fact that General Manager Mike Grier can select virtually anyone with this draft pick, there are only a handful of players that truly stand out as qualified to be selected with the second overall pick. Everyone is assuming that the Toronto Maple Leafs will select Gavin McKenna at number one ov...

The San Jose Sharks narrowly missed out on the NHL playoffs this past season, thanks in large part to the offensive spark provided by 19-year-old superstar-in-the-making, Macklin Celebrini. They were ultimately left on the outside looking in, thanks to one of the league's worst defensive units, an area the Sharks' front office will be looking to improve this off-season, including entering the NHL Draft.

2026 NHL Draft: The case for Ivar Stenberg

Since coming to San Jose to helm the Sharks, General Manager Mike Grier has never wavered from his promise of drafting the best player available (BPA). He’s always said that he will draft the BPA and no matter what the noise around him is, he’s stuck to that promise. It happened last season when the Sharks selected Michael Misa despite having a need for a defenseman and even more so when, with the 30th overall pick, the team selected goaltender Joshua Ravensbergen because he was next up on the...
