Colorado Avalanche overpower the rebuilding San Jose Sharks with a decisive 6-0 shutout. Does this result confirm how far the Sharks still have to go, or are there signs of hope in their young core taking shape?

JD Young analyzes the gap between the Sharks and the Western Conference elite, highlighting Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar’s relentless play for Colorado. Sam Dickinson’s aggressive performance, along with promising flashes on the power play, point toward future potential—even as the rebuild continues. The Barracuda’s youth movement, led by Igor Chernyshov and Quentin Musty, offers another glimpse of the organization’s future. With upcoming showdowns against the Vegas Golden Knights and Vancouver Canucks, the Sharks face new tests in their quest to progress. Can this young roster turn lessons into wins, or will growing pains define the season?
