## Resource

The San Jose Sharks are reloading their defense with big moves this summer—landing Jacob Trouba on a $33M deal, trading for Darnell Nurse, and adding Michael Kesselring, all while bolstering depth with prospects like Luca Cagnoni and Nolan Allan. After years of struggling on the blue line and missing the playoffs for seven straight seasons, this overhaul signals a serious push to become playoff contenders again. Scouts are already calling it a “big improvement,” with one saying it’s “closer to average” and another calling it “significantly improved.” The real test? Can this revamped defense hold up against the league’s elite? And with potential for one more veteran addition, the Sharks are clearly betting big on turning their fortunes around.
