Very surprising news involving Mike Hoffman with the San Jose Sharks

While many experts believe that the Montreal Canadiens will again finish in the depths of the overall standings, it must be said that there's likely at least one team worse than the Habs, namely the Sharks.

The organization recently released its starting lineup for the new season, and it's quite concerning, but not in a good way.

Imagine that Mike Hoffman, who had become a burden in the Canadiens' lineup, is now on the first line of his new team, alongside Tomas Hertl and Filip Zadina.

It must be admitted that this doesn't bode well for the Sharks this year. Perhaps the warm California air will boost Hoffman's offensive production, but I wouldn't bet my paycheck on it!
