Sharks News & Notes (8/24/21)

 Here are a few of the latest headlines surrounding Team Teal as of this week: 

  •  The newest Sharks' jersey numbers have been determined: Andrew Cogliano will wear no. 11, Nick Bonino, will wear no. 13, Adin Hill will wear no. 33, and James Reimer will wear no. 47. 
  •  The Sharks signed 2018 4th round pick Jasper Weatherby to a two-year deal. Weatherby last played for the University of North Dakota, scoring 14 goals and 10 assists for 24 points in 29 games. 
  • Adin Hill's goalie mask was unveiled earlier today, and it looks incredible. It is mostly teal with several sharks on it, including different species of sharks, with the one on the back of it having  tentacles hanging from its mouth. It also contains a large Sharks logo on the top, the number 33 on the chin area, some ships in the background on the bottom half of the sides of the mask, along with what appears to be a skull and a wooden goalie stick that a shark took a bite out of. Overall, Adin Hill's goalie mask has such a cool design to it, and I am looking forward to him wearing it on the ice and in net next season. 
  •  The Evander Kane off-ice situation continues to get worse by the day, as a judge ruled that Evander must face discovery in abortion-for-pay lawsuit. This basically means that he owes money to a woman for her having an abortion. I will not get into any more details about this mess, other than he needs to step away from the game of hockey and get his personal life in order before anything else. 
  •  Just a heads up in advance, I don't plan to write any individual game reviews for any of the Sharks' upcoming preseason games next month, as preseason games don't mean that much to me. I will probably wrap up all of their exhibition games in one post before the regular season starts. 

Be sure to return to CPF Hockey for more Sharks headlines coming soon.
