What a ride this season has been. 🦈🏒

We’re closing the books on the 2025-26 season tonight. We didn’t make the dance, but hitting 90 points and watching Celebrini hunt down Jumbo’s record made this one of the most fun seasons in years.

Tonight on the finale, Paul and Aaron are breaking down:

  • The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly: A full analytical recap of the year.
  • Locker Clean Out: We’ve got the clips from the players, Warsofsky, and Grier. What is the vibe heading into the summer?
  • Prediction Review: We look back at our picks from October. Spoilers: We didn't see 115 points coming!
  • The "Core Four": Evaluating the growth of our players.

This was recorded in-studio and released to members earlier this week, but we’re hyped to share the full wrap-up with everyone tonight!

What a way to end the season.

On April 16th, Macklin Celebrini officially hit 115 points, passing Joe Thornton for the most points in a single season in San Jose Sharks history. Whether you're Team Tank or Team Playoffs, we just witnessed the best individual offensive season this franchise has ever seen.

Tonight at 9:30pm PT, Paul and Aaron are breaking it all down:

  • The Record: Recapping the 6-1 blowout in Winnipeg and that 45th goal.
  • Hart Trophy Tracker: We built a custom Hart Trophy slider index. Does Macklin have a real shot at being the league MVP?
  • The Final Three: Nashville, Chicago, and the Winnipeg masterpiece.
  • Teenage History: Where Macklin ranks alongside names like Gretzky and Crosby.

⚠️ SPECIAL TIME: We are going live at 9:30 PM PT tonight!

Macklin Celebrini is at 110 points. He needs 5 more to pass Joe Thornton for the greatest offensive season in Sharks history. Even with the team sitting at 82 points and the playoff math working against us, we are watching a legendary rookie campaign come to a close.

Tonight we’re breaking down:

  • The Record: Can he get 5 points against NSH, CHI, and WPG?
  • Defensive Deep Dive: Why the xG% has slipped lately and what the d-pairings look like.
  • Season Awards: We’re picking our 2025-26 team award winners!

What a week for the kids. Macklin Celebrini is officially a 100-point NHLer as a teenager. Let that sink in.

But while the individual milestones are flying, the Nashville loss was a massive blow to the "Miracle Push." Tonight, Deveraux and Aaron are breaking it all down:

  • The Week that Was: Recapping the Blues win, the insane final 21 seconds in Anaheim, and that 3-0 comeback that fell apart in Nashville.
  • The "27%" Question: We look at the remaining 6 games. Is there a path left, or is it time to look toward the draft?
  • The Stat Gap: Why is our Power Play elite (Top 8 in March) while our goaltending is bottom 3?
  • Cuda Clinched: The Barracuda are headed to the playoffs!

Hey Sharks fans! The vibes are back up after that 3-2 comeback win in Columbus. Even though the OTL in St. Louis was a heartbreaker, the youth movement is officially taking over.

Tonight we are diving into:

  • Igor Chernyshov: His first multi-goal game and that clutch game-winner with 1:25 left.
  • Macklin Celebrini: 100 assists as a teenager. He’s currently on pace to shatter Joe Thornton’s franchise scoring record.
  • The Playoff Math: We are 4 points back of Nashville. To make it, we likely need to go 7-3-1 in these final 11 games. Is it possible?
  • Askarov Update: Reacting to the neck injury and Nedeljkovic’s relief performance.
