Hey everyone! I hope you all had a great summer vacation! Your essays on it are due next week, but today we’ll just be going over the syllabus for next season. I’m Hooooome! First of all, if you haven’t heard already, I made a big life change over the summer and moved back home to […]
Written in collaboration with Sheng Peng Jonathan Dahlen made his debut for the San Jose Barracuda last night. It was a quiet beginning in the San Jose organization for the once-ballyhooed Vancouver prospect, skating before SAP Center’s announced crowd of 2,593. But this might have been a welcome contrast for Dahlen, who departed the Canucks […]
A lot has changed in the American Hockey League since the Worcester Sharks last took the ice, but there are three things that have remained the same: Roy Sommer, John McCarthy and on-ice success.

The Cleveland Barons had just one night to leave a lasting impression, and they sure made it count.

For the San Jose Barracuda, the bad luck finally hit last night, in the form of a 5-0 drubbing in Tucson at the hands (or…wings?) of the Roadrunners. Former Barracuda […]
Hi! We’re Lachlan “Lach in the Crease” Irvine and Nora Scally, and welcome to The Van Jose Podcast! In our first ever episode, we tackle the amazing start to Elias Pettersson’s career, who are the real San Jose Sharks, the Ottawa Senators “hotstoving” video and more!
When the San Jose Barracuda and Stockton Heat meet for the fourth time this season at the SAP Center tonight, it’ll be a true litmus test for both teams. In the case of the ‘Cuda, it’s an opportunity to show their only regulation loss to this same Stockton squad two weeks ago was just an […]
If you want to describe the Vancouver Canucks first two games of the 2018-19 season, you really only need two words. Elias. Pettersson. It was only fitting that Elias would be the one to score Vancouver’s first goal of the new season, for his first NHL goal on his first shot in his first game. […]
