Long, Hot Summer

Free Agency:
So, a whole summer waiting. A whole summer reading fan sites calling for the Sharks Management's head because they didn't spend all the way up to the cap to get a big-name d-man. Personally, I think they tried, but didn't get the guys they wanted. And rather spend money on a lesser-quality d-man, just to appease the fans, so far, management has decided to wait. And I'm OK with that. I'd rather they take the wait and see attitude and then do a trade later on in the season, or at least closer to the start of the regular season. Yeah, there are some holes in the Sharks depth chart, but I have confidence that the team will fill them when it makes sense to do so.
Uniforms & Logo:
So, a while summer waiting. A whole summer reading fan sites calling for the Sharks to change back to the original colors & logo because change isn't good. I even read where someone was whining that some of the teams did this purposely for the money. I'm sure that's in there somewhere, but regarding the sweaters, that was league-mandated, at least the change to the rbk system. So, if you're gonna make that change, you might as well make the uni change (if necessary) at the same time. Now admittedly, I don't think the Sharks needed to make a change. I do like the new Shark logo, but the one with the tail could be tweaked to have a real Sharks tail, not the sideways thing they put on it. And I'm not gonna whine about a uniform change before I've seen it. So stay tuned....that could be down the pike here fairly soon.
