The San Jose Sharks are making a move in their goaltending department! With Alex Nedeljkovic dealing with personal matters, the Sharks have recalled Jakub Skarek from the AHL. Skarek, a former New York Islanders prospect, is set to back up Yaroslav Askarov against the Flames.
Skarek’s journey to the Sharks has been an interesting one. After becoming a free agent, he signed with a Finnish team before returning to the NHL with San Jose. Despite his experience, Skarek has only played in two NHL games, both with the Islanders last season. His minor league stats haven’t been impressive, but the Sharks are giving him a chance to shine.
Will Skarek make the most of this opportunity? Can he prove himself as a reliable backup? Find out more about the Sharks’ latest move and the potential impact on their goaltending situation.
