San Jose Hockey Now Podcast #20: Why Sending Bordeleau Down Makes Sense, Is This Worst Sharks Team Ever?

Keegan and Sheng look for the bright spots on the 0-8-1 San Jose Sharks.

 

But before that, they talk about Joe Thornton officially retiring from the NHL (1:52). Sheng takes a guess when the San Jose Sharks will retire Jumbo’s jersey. David Quinn also said something interesting in regards to Thornton joining the Sharks front office (4:15).

 

Next, we talk about everything wrong with the 0-8-1 Sharks (6:55).

 

Sheng talks about why it’s the right call for the San Jose Sharks to send Thomas Bordeleau (8:55) down to the AHL.

 

Keegan shares his thoughts about why Jacob Peterson (16:00) got sent down. 

 

He also thinks, however, that the Barracuda style of play may not be great for Bordeleau (16:50).

 

Sheng and Keegan dive into the Luke Kunin debate (21:30). 

 

Next, they talk about the unpolished Filip Zadina (24:30).

 

What’s up with Mike Hoffman, Anthony Duclair, and Alexander Barabanov (26:00)?

 

How about the San Jose Sharks defense so far (27:25)? The goaltending (32:20)?

 

Keegan and Sheng then go back up front to talk about Mikael Granlund (33:20) and Fabian Zetterlund (37:15).

 

Is this the worst San Jose Sharks team ever (40:40)?

 

Keegan talks about what he’s focusing on with this Sharks squad (47:00).

 

Finally, Keegan shares his thoughts about Will Smith so far (52:15).
