Sharks will retain head coach McLellan

Todd McLellan will be retained as the San Jose Sharks head coach, according to multiple reports, but there may be changes to his staff.

Former Sharks Mike Ricci and Bryan Marchmant could be joining the Sharks staff, according to the CBC, but it's unclear whether they would replace current assistants Jay Woodcroft and Matt Shaw.

Marchment is currently a scout, and Ricci is a development coach.

Former Blackhawks coach Dirk Graham is also a possibility to join the Sharks' staff, according to CSNBayArea.com.

The Sharks had a record of 43-29-10 this season and lost their first-round playoff series to St. Louis.
