San Jose Sharks Find Hope in Klim Kostin Amid Worst SeasonThe San Jose Sharks are having their worst season by points percentage in nearly 30 years.

But amid the carnage, the Sharks appear to have found another piece to build around. A big piece. Winger Klim Kostin scored again Monday in the Sharks’ 4-2 loss to the Seattle Kraken at SAP Center, giving him eight points in 12 games since he came to San Jose on March 8 in a trade with the Detroit Red Wings.
