Ask a casual hockey fan about the San Jose Sharks, and what may you hear? “I don’t know much, but I know they have Joe Thornton – I can’t believe he’s still so good. They have Joe Pavelski and that guy with the huge beard, Brent Burns, too, right? They’re good.”
While there’s nothing against those three – they’re the three-best players on the team – unless you’re a knowledgeable NHL fan who follows the sport more than just watching the playoffs, you wouldn’t hear much of Logan Couture.
