Ostapchuk Eyes Growth with Sharks | San Jose Sharks News

Zack Ostapchuk just locked in a four-year, $9.4M deal with the San Jose Sharks, thrilled to anchor the team’s growth. At just 23, he’s hitting the gym hard this summer to get bigger, stronger, and faster — but also sharpening his net-front game, faceoffs, and edgework to maximize his size. He’s already impressed by teammates like Verhoeff’s shot and sees big potential in young centers Mack and Misa, while admiring veteran Alex Wennberg’s two-way play. He recalls last season’s five-game skid as a wake-up call, stressing that the young Sharks now know the importance of bringing relentless intensity every night — a mindset he believes will fuel a much more consistent and competitive campaign this year.
