Sharks’ Kiefer Sherwood DEBUTS on Top Line—Can San Jose SURPRISE the Avalanche?
San Jose Sharks search for a spark as Kiefer Sherwood makes his debut amid a three-game losing streak. Will a new-look top line featuring Sherwood, Macklin Celebrini, and Will Smith ignite the offense before the Olympic break, or will the Colorado Avalanche’s elite defense and penalty kill shut them down?
JD Young breaks down the Sharks’ fresh line combinations, Misa’s much-anticipated promotion to the second line, and the high stakes facing both franchises. Key points include power play struggles for Colorado despite their star power, fatigue plaguing San Jose, and the significance of recent trades and player deployment. How will the Sharks respond to a motivated Avalanche team seeking a rebound after their recent slump? Get ready for insights on matchups, projected lineups, and what it will take for San Jose to head into the break on a high note.

I’m so excited for this game. Could be epic. Or painful, or meh. The amazing thing about this Sharks team if they play to there fullest. They could rock Colorados world. Go SHARKS 🦈
I get injuries being a factor, but all the line shuffling kind of worries me.
After the last three games, I certainly hope so!
joel kiviranta always has a good game against us but I want to call an Eklund goal
The only one that looked 100% and I dont think they are getting enough credit is Eklund. Watching last game he was on the throttle. The rest of the team seemed lack luster. They need to get more physical. They aren't putting that thought in the oppositions mind. If I touch this puck its going to hurt.. …..
Very excited to see Sherwood play. He is on line 1 as most of us thought. And I am not worried about him getting signed. Even if he gets 5.5 AAV for say 4 seasons, the cap next season is 104 mil. His cap hit is just over 5%. If this somehow becomes an issue in three seasons (when it will be less than 5%) then the Sharks and GMMG have big problems.
I am hoping we see something different after the TDL. Something like:
Line 1: Eklund Celebrini Smith
Line 2/3: Cherny Misa Sherwood
Line2/3: Graf Wennberg Toffoli
Line 4: Goody Chucky Gaudette/Reaves
I believe in Sherwood!
That 70s line!
