San Jose Sharks: Was Antti Niemi Robbed Of The Vezina Trophy?


Antti Niemi

The NHL handed out its major awards on Saturday night, a list of trophies which included the Vezina for the league’s top goaltender. Taking home the award was Sergei Bobrovsky, who certainly deserved it. But should more consideration have been given to San Jose Sharks netminder Antti Niemi?

Will It Be Forward Or Back To Defense For Brent Burns Next Year?


Kelley L Cox-USA TODAY Sports

The San Jose Sharks will face decisions with plenty of players on their roster after yet another playoff disappointment.
