This one was a joy to write. Macklin Celebrini was finally named captain by the San Jose Sharks.
An obvious choice and the perfect man for the job. The franchise is in good hands.

Giving away Misa would be such a panic trade when adjusting the coaching philosophy is the much more obvious and less organizationally damaging next step for the Sharks.
David Pagnotta: Re Simon Edvinsson: What I do know is it would take more, from Detroit's perspective, than just Michael Misa, to part with Edvinsson; that seems to be the situation right now - DFO Insider (11/4)

NHLRR: Pagnotta noted that it was still unclear if San Jose actually offered Misa or Detroit just asked for him
Next season, or even later this year, Sherwood should wear an A. He is a leader on the ice and is always accountable in the media.
Sherwood is such a valuable piece for the Sharks.
Ah, the players only meeting. The telltale sign across every sport that your coach has lost the room.
Celebrini said the players-only meeting message stays in the room.
Disputed that #SJSharks are emotionally fragile right now: āWeāre frustrated. We're not happy with the way we're playing. We need to move forward. You can't really dwell on it.ā
The Sharks can still salvage their season. Itās become apparent they need a new voice in that locker room.
Itās time for the Sharks to find a new coach. Preferably one who has been around the block a few times. One that knows to play to the strengths of your roster rather than forcing a contrasting style pf play.

Darren Dreger: Re Simon Edvinsson future: San Jose, that speculation has been out there, Michael Misa plus, maybe plus - OverDrive (11/3)

NHLRR: It's not clear if the Sharks are willing to include Misa in a package for Edvinsson, but that is speculated to be in Detroit's ask. Some reports suggest that not only are the Red Wings asking for Misa, but would not simply accept him one for one for Edvinsson
The Sharks have some soul searching to do. Top to bottom.
Something HAS to change. They feel broken right now.
Happy for Dickinson. Heās really put in the work to clean up his defensive game.
Sharks really should give the kid a crack at the power play.
Not the worst, not the best among the hometown remix.
The Sharks have had worse looks, and definitely some better ones.

The #SJSharks need to take a long look in the mirror after today's game. It sounds like that's what will happen. This is MY OPINION. Criticism for tough play should be and is fair, but remember, these people are humanāmy thoughts on @SharksHKYDigest.ā¤µļø

Thereās consistent puck watching, players often looking confused or like they donāt know what theyāre supposed to be doing. The system doesnāt seem effective in the slightest, especially 5-on-5. Not all of it falls on Warsofsky, but seeing no improvement game over game is concerning. It feels like theyāre trying to rely strictly on Celebrini because it worked last season, and now that itās not, they donāt know what to do.
When the team makes the same mistakes every game, usually an indication that the coaching isnāt working.
The Sharks need to change something. Either philosophically or in personnel.
For the second straight game, the #SJSharks are being outcoached heavily. Eventually youād think something needs to change one way or another.
Fair response by Warsofsky.
He shouldnāt be criticized for changing lines. Itās the timing.
Keeping cold lines together too long and burying young guys for mistakes when vets arenāt playing any better is my main gripe. Lots of season left to find right combos.

#SJSharks Head coach Ryan Warsofsky addresses splitting up Celebrini and Smith:
"We're acting like I'm the only coach who changes the lines. When things aren't working, you've got to change things up, and that's what we did. And we have two really good players. We can separate them and make matchups a little bit more difficult.
We tried to get it going. Obviously, didn't work. Would we go back to it? Possibly. It's not just about two players. It's about our team playing the right way. And if things aren't working, my job as the coach is to mix things up and get them working again. That's all I have to say about it."
