San Jose Sharks from the past: where are they playing now? (2012-13 edition)
When I posted the Worcester Sharks list last season several people asked if I was doing one for San Jose. I didn’t do one last season, but figured that this season was a good time to start. Below is a list every former player for the San Jose Sharks still playing pro hockey but no […]
WorSharks from the past: where are they playing now? (2012-13 edition)
Every year we like to take a look where former Worcester Sharks are playing across pro hockey, and while the NHL lockout pushed this from its normal late December posting to late January now that rosters seemed to have settled it’s time to take another look at who is playing where. Below is a list […]
WorSharks steal a point in 4-3 shootout loss to Providence
The Worcester Sharks once again came out of the gate flat and that slow start resulted in three goals against during the first 9:49 of their Saturday night contest against the Providence Bruins, but the WorSharks slowly dug themselves out that deep hole and managed to steal a point in a 4-3 shootout loss at […]
WorSharks grab a much needed two points in 3-1 victory over Springfield
The Worcester Sharks traveled an hour west down the Massachusetts Turnpike mired in a five game (0-4-0-1) winless streak to take on the Springfield Falcons, who were riding high as the best team in the American Hockey League and unbeaten in eight in a row (7-0-1-0), but has been so often the case over the […]

WorSharks lose 3-1 to Pirates; Sateri shines in losing effort
The Worcester Sharks ragtag lineup once again had issues putting the puck in the net, only in Sunday’s matinee against the Portland Pirates it was due more to the opposing netminder than an ability to generate any offense. But in spite of a great goaltending performance from Harri Sateri the result was still the same […]

Andreoff suspension is a slap on his wrist, and a slap to the face of hockey fans everywhere
On New Year’s Eve in the Worcester Sharks game against the Manchester Monarchs WorSharks forward Curt Gogol received a blind side check to the head by Monarchs rookie forward Andy Andreoff, in which Andreoff intentionally charged at Gogol and targeted Gogol’s head with his elbow and delivered a blow in the open ice far away […]
