Sheng’s Daily: Chekhovich Says “Everything’s OK”
Can the San Jose Sharks afford to buy out Martin Jones, fit in a new starting goalie, and add a third-line center? I crunch the numbers here:
Where will Jonathan Dahlén fit in the San Jose Sharks’ line-up?

Good hustle and nice find from Brian Truong, San Jose Hockey Now’s Barracuda reporter — it looks like Ivan Chekhovich, who left Sunday’s game because of a Brayden Pachal blindside hit, is okay after being in concussion protocol.
Update on Ivan Chekhovich from his IG story:
"do this exercise twice a day and your back won't get hurt" … "slaughterhouse""p.s. everything's OK"@Sheng_Peng reported he was in concussion protocol after exiting yesterday's game due to this hit https://t.co/lHTbVgPHRk pic.twitter.com/PkHG17791o

What a wild season it was. In total, 21 different players appeared in at least one game with the @sjbarracuda and @SanJoseSharks, the second most ever, and the most since the 1992-93 season (Kansas City Blades). Thank you to all those that watched and listened. I had a blast! pic.twitter.com/7OkVJDfOvj

Hey Sheng, any chance there’s an article with Jonathan Becher in the near future? Would love to get an update on some potential jersey changes for next season. Keep up the great work!!!
Hey Eric! I’m not sure if Jonathan is the guy to go to for jersey questions. But I’ll keep in mind to chase that story, get somebody else. Wonder if Stealth comes back? I assume, just a guess, that Heritage was a 30th anniversary thing.
Thank you Sheng
That would be quite a disappointment to lose the Heritage. So much better-looking than the Reverse Retro (and even the primary sweater).
I agree, but as they did for the 25th anniversary, they seem to want to hold the Heritage back for special occasions. Good news, I guess, they can break it out every 5 years, 35th anniversary, 40th, and so on haha
