Happy Sunday, Sharks fans. Hope the week treated you well and you’re enjoying a bit of a break this weekend. As always, Sunday means it’s time for the Weekly Rundown. So grab your coffee, settle in, and let’s take a look back at everything that went down this past week on The Hockey News – San Jose Sharks site.

With the NHL Draft coming up fast on Friday, June 27 and Saturday, June 28, the focus has been all about draft coverage. Over the past several days, we’ve highlighted a few names that could be in play for the Sharks with their 30th and 33rd overall picks.

My colleague Jesse Courville-Lynch also looked into some RFA updates and took a closer look at a few pending free agents who were once targets for San Jose but have since re-signed with their current teams.

Looking ahead, there’s even more draft content coming. We’ll be diving into additional targets for both the first and second rounds, plus there’s a full mock draft and a Sharks-specific big board dropping later in the week ahead of Draft Day.

So make sure to bookmark this page and check back often. If you miss anything along the way, don’t worry. The San Jose Sharks Weekly Rundown will be here every Sunday to keep you in the loop.

Here’s the week that was:

The San Jose Sharks dropped theirs today, and it’s about what you’d expect this time of year.

The San Jose Sharks could've had an offer sheet on the table for a depth power forward if he had hit the open market and been eligible for an offer sheet, but he has recently re-signed with the New York Rangers.

As I mentioned in my Bill Zonnon draft target piece, the San Jose Sharks have two first-round picks and some big decisions to make. Their first pick is second overall, which they landed after falling one spot in the NHL Draft Lottery. The other may require more work from their scouting department. They hold the Dallas Stars’ 30th overall pick from the Mikael Granlund and Cody Ceci trade earlier this season.
