The San Jose Sharks continue their 2025-26 season tonight with game two of the regular season against the Anahiem Ducks. Puck drop is set for 7:00 pm PT/10:00 pm EST at SAP Center in San Jose.

Head coach Ryan Warsofsky has decided to stay with the same forward lines, but has made change on the blue line. Tonight is going to be the NHL debut of defensemen Sam Dickinson.
