  1. Dan write a book of all what you did and what you seen during all the years .. hope you been taking notes so it be a great read sharks for ever !

  2. wish we had taken buium over dickinson (did not select BPA there, but in the next draft, "we're only doing BPA" when selecting ravensberger/wang even though both of those were ranked LOWER than fiddler/Brzustewicz who not only were the BPA but were both actual team needs i.e. RHD). so not a lot of consistency with mgmt. left up to me, we would have buium (who is PPG in nhl right now btw) and fiddler + Brzustewicz/raven/wang. just being real. dickinson is still a good pick tho, so not complaining too much here. but i am pointing out the inconsistency with what mgmt is saying "we're selecting BPA". no you're not, you didnt for both drafts. SJ has huge holes on D, and D take a lot longer to develop. getting young RHD shouldve been an absolute priority last draft. hopefully we can get some in this next one. and for the delusional SJ fans who think we're not tanking this year, let's be real, it's not the end of the world if we finish bottom 3. we could use a top RHD like verhoff. it would set us up for the future like a dynasty. think long term.

  3. Been to a lot of venues. Shark Tank is really good. OK, the concourse is overcrowded during intermissions. So find a way to open up a bit more area by opening up areas just outside the doors. One of the things I don't like about other venues are these places with so many levels. But that seems like what Becher wants to do.

    Dan is such a joy.. Randy as well. Looking forward to these 2 being the next honored with the equivalent of a jersey retirement

  4. As the father of a 15-year old girl… and as a life-long (like Dan, Day 1… Sharks against Canucks at the Cow Palace exhibition game) Sharks’ fan… I really appreciated this conversation between Brodie and Dan. Love both of you guys! Looking forward to that Stanley Cup parade! GO SHARKS!!!

  5. Dan is the GOAT! We are so lucky to have this broadcasting team. They are top of class. Brodie, you are a welcome company in that statement too. Sharks fans are spoiled be it tv, radio, and everything in between the games.

  6. Hey Brodie and Dan,
    I always enjoy hearing the media faces of the San Jose Sharks talk Sharks hockey. Dan you have been a warrior all these years through thick and thin always being there to talk about everything Sharks and broadcast Sharks hockey. Heck Dan you even survived the prickly Daryl Sutter years! hahaha

    Thanks for an interesting look at where we have been, where we are and what we hope will be. Take care boys and GO SHARKS!

  7. Dan, I think I would put you at the top of my list of guys I would like to see win a Cup. And boy would I like to hear the call. You are a treasure.
