Will San Jose Sharks Mario Ferraro change?

San José – Always Mario Ferraro It is not close, or otherwise it is just going on their own business, defender Henry Thrun realizes something different about the San José Sharks‘Interior Sanctuary.

“The days he is quiet, the costumes tends to be quieter,” Thrun said about Ferraro. “When he enters screaming, shouting and shouting, elevates everyone there. Really, you can’t put a value. It is something that some boys have, some boys. “

“If I entered and try to do that, it wouldn’t be natural.”

While sharks have a handful of Free agents without pending restrictions That could be in motion before the NHL trade deadline on March 7, the largest intrigue is if General Manager Mike Grier will treat Ferraro, the third most long starting player of the team.

It could be Grier’s most important decision during the next week before the deadline.

Upon entering the shark game against the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Center on Thursday, Ferraro is tied in the advantage of sharks in short time on ice, it is second in the general time of ice, leads the defenders of the team in hits and is is is second in blocked shots.

While sharks could make another defense fill those roles and assume that ice time at some point in the future, the personality and presence of Ferraro would be difficult to replace. In the last seasons, when the mood around the sharks has not always been optimistic, Ferraro, an alternative captain since the beginning of the 2021-2022 season, has tried to maintain some positivity.

However, the cold reality is that Ferraro, a left shot defender, is in the third year of a four -year contract and $ 13 million that does not have any commercial protection. At the end of his current agreement, Ferraro, 26, will be a free agent without restrictions and can get away without sharks obtaining anything in return.

In several commercial joints, Ferraro appears as No. 29 by Atlético and No. 13 for the fourth period.

Of all the players it was rumored that they are in the exchange block, Ferraro could bring the greatest return, and Grier has said that sharks They are still trying to add assets.

That would not make a Ferraro game easier to digest, at least not for Thrun.

“It would be a great loss,” Thrun said. “You need guys to occupy different roles. There are more vocal types, there are types that lead with the example and are quieter, and then there are all those found in the middle. So, having someone like Mario, who has gone through the NHL and has been in more competitive teams, has been in teams that have fought and still appear on the track every day with a positive attitude and ready to work and compete as hard as the night does it at night, it is really inspiring.

“It’s something we all learn, and we can all go as it progresses.”

A sequence during Monday’s game Against Winnipeg aircraft Ferraro time encapsulated in San José.

In the second period, Ferraro crossed the shark network while skating after Winnipeg Jets Kyle Connor striker. Ferraro kept his eye on the album when he was backed up to Mark Scheifele, who shot a shot that could have resulted in his 32nd goal of the season.

Instead, the album hit Ferraro on the arm, and during the next 45 seconds or so, he skated in what seemed like a total agony. Finally, he arrived at the Sharks Bank for a change, but only after he broke a pass within the end of San José, possibly avoiding another goal.
