Sharks coaching search: Seven names, young and (older), to ponder in San Jose

The San Jose Sharks are starting a coaching search for the second time in three years after the organization fired David Quinn after just two seasons. While Quinn was considered the favorite to get the job in July 2022, shortly after Mike Grier was named the team's general manager, there does not appear to be a similar obvious choice this time. Instead, it seems Grier will cast a wide net when it comes to finding the Sharks' next coach. “We're building a list of candidates we'd like to speak to,” Grier said Wednesday, roughly an hour after Quinn's dismissal was announced.
