Former Sharks on opponent: Matt Carle; Tony Hrkac, pro scout
After giving Barracuda coach Roy Sommer a fine ceremony honoring his 637th win, setting AHL record that had stood for 72 years, before the game, the Sharks went on to dominate in a 4-1 win over the Coyotes.
Sharks now head out on a five game road trip. First stop: Tampa Bay. The Lightning hosted the Blues on Sunday, losing 2-1, their first home loss of 2016. Tampa is fourth in the Atlantic Division and fighting to retain a playoff spot.
But mainly, Tampa has been the home of Steven Stamkos rumors. Toronto pundits (and others) have been speculating if and when he’ll be re-signed to a new deal, and where he might go if not. Often the leading weekly story in national rumor wrap ups, guessing the status of negotiations and likelihood of his relocation, by the trade deadline or in the sumemr. It got so crazy, that Tampa GM Yzerman released a statement that Stamkos will not be going anywhere by the trade deadline; perhaps done to remove distractions for the team going forward.
(Stay tuned for morning skate updates.)
Update: looks like it’ll be Jones vs Koekkoek. Dillon out.
