What Is A Realistic Expectation For The San Jose Sharks To Enter Their Competitive Window?

When should the San Jose Sharks start their competitive window? First start by examining the different tiers for teams in their competitive window and where the Sharks currently fit into it. Then, when did the Tampa Bay Lightning move into their competitive window based on the drafting of Steven Stamkos? Plus, analyze the Colorado Avalanche's window based on their drafting of Nathan MacKinnon. Finally, what should we expect from Macklin Celebrini after looking at Stamkos and MacKinnon and their development.

[@ThingsWorseThanDeath]

This is the most exciting the Sharks have maybe *ever* been. Even more than Marleau, Thornton, Nabokov, Burns, Karlsson, Pavelski, Meier, Hertl, etc were. With Celebrini, Smith, Eklund, Askarov, Dickinson, Muk, Musty, Zetterlund, Bord, Halt, Chern, Bystedt, Cagnoni, etc etc etc.. plus another top 3 pick after this season most likely.. plus a GM who appears to be maybe one of the best we’ve ever had… I truly think Grier is going to bring us our first cup (or more) in the next 5-8 years. And you don’t have to contend to be an exciting team. The fun starts this very season, even if we finish dead last again and get another glorious 1st overall pick.. I’m definitely going to some games this year to watch our young exciting team (first time I’ll have caught a game in a few years). Our top 6 is really exciting, already, THIS year! And Askarov.. man, that’s something the Sharks have literally *never* had, despite some really good goaltenders over the years, but none as promising as this. When will they enter their “competitive window?” Honestly, I don’t care, it will come. Cuz it’s already exciting as hell watching this rebuild. The fun starts THIS YEAR!! The future is HELLA Teal!!

I expect another 2-3 years of no playoffs. However, this year is the most excited I’ve been for the Sharks in god knows how long. Can’t wait for the season to start

[@dcfog81]

I noticed you didn't go through the VGK timeline of how long they waited for their picks to develop to open up their window...oh wait

[@robertevans00]

27/28 will Be the beginning of their window, though I do expect 26/27 for the sharks to make the playoffs
