What happened: San Jose announced a multi-year contract for head coach Ryan Warsofsky on Thursday. The agreement keeps the Sharks' top coaching job settled as the club moves into the 2026-27 preseason.

Why it matters: The extension gives San Jose continuity behind the bench during a stretch of offseason roster and organizational moves. It also lands days after the Sharks went unbeaten through Rookie Faceoff, adding stability as camp ramps up.

What to watch: Preseason camp decisions and any accompanying staff updates are the next signs of how San Jose plans to build around the renewed deal.
