December 8, 2023 by William Espy
The San Jose Sharks played at Little Caesar’s Arena in Detroit to take on the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday (Dec. 7) as the next stop of their long road trip.

The narrative on the San Jose Sharks’ 2023-24 season has undergone a massive shift in recent weeks. While they started the season with one of the worst performances the NHL has seen in recent memory, the past few weeks have shown that there was a level of competitiveness to the Sharks that just needed a kickstart.

A 2023 Trade Deadline acquisition, the 24-year-old Swede has taken major steps since last season and has increased his offensive numbers in a way that has been valuable to his teammates. Zetterlund’s growth is reason for hope both for him and for the Sharks they enter a crucial point in the season and their history.
