Welcome to the new San Jose Hockey Now Podcast! For our reboot debut, SJHN editor-in-chief Sheng Peng has a new co-host, Keegan McNally. We also have a special guest, San Jose Sharks director of player development Todd Marchant, to talk about the 2023 Draft.
 
Sheng and Keegan jump right into the big San Jose Sharks news right now, the Sharks hiring Patrick Marleau as a development coach (and what that might mean for Mike Ricci) (1:05), why Sheng doesn't think the Sharks will get a lot back in a Erik Karlsson trade (5:35), and who Sheng and Keegan think that the San Jose Sharks will pick at No. 4 and 26 (and who they themselves would pick) (28:00).
 
Next, we talk with Todd Marchant (53:10). 

First, we ask our obligatory Matvei Michkov questions (56:55) – do the San Jose Sharks have a meeting scheduled with him in Nashville? Why is Marchant so excited about Sharks Prospect of the Year Ethan Cardwell (1:05:00)? Marchant also talks about why size doesn’t matter much to the Sharks organization (1:11:00). Where is Filip Bystedt playing next year (1:12:30)? Finally, we get an update on Gannon Laroque, will he be ready for Development Camp (1:17:35)?

We also talk William Eklund, Mattias Havelid, Jake Furlong, and Todd tells an awesome William Karlsson story.
