2011-12 San Jose Sharks: Ryane Clowe Report Card

The first season Ryane Clowe was healthy and good enough to play in at least 60 games was 2008-09. The San Jose Sharks won the President's Trophy that season, and with 22 goals and 30 assists in 71 games, Clowe looked like a big piece of the team's future moving forward.

Now the Sharks seem headed in the wrong direction, and general manager Doug Wilson has to know they need a fundamental shift. Clowe may well be the player least most to be moved to make that happen.

For one thing, he is in the last year of a contract with a cap hit of $3,625,000, so his future with the team is unknown.
