FIREWORKS: San Jose Sharks Recall Igor Chernyshov to Replace Will Smith, What Happens NEXT?

San Jose Sharks shake up their roster as Igor Chernyshov and Ethan Cardwell earn recalls amid injuries to Will Smith and Philipp Kurashev. With Smith and Kurashev on IR and the team navigating a challenging stretch, the Sharks’ forward lines enter a critical transition—can these call-ups provide the spark San Jose needs to weather the storm? JD Young covers what Chernyshov brings to the lineup after dominating with the Barracuda, highlighting his power-forward game, scoring touch, and potential chemistry with Macklin Celebrini and William Eklund. Plus, Cardwell's hard-nosed bottom-six role and penalty-killing prowess could help steady the ship. Hear which lines might get reshuffled, how the Sharks are managing Michael Misa's contract, and why these roster moves could shape the team's trajectory heading into must-win matchups against the Flames, Stars, and Kraken.
