"It was pretty hard a year for me and for the team, of course. But I think just this year, it's been such a different experience, and I've really enjoyed it so far. The way we are with each other, it's so positive and so much joy in our room. I think it shows on the ice, and we've been able to have some success, but now it's time to keep it going and make that push."
"It's fair to say Philipp Kurashev is having more fun now in his first season with the San Jose Sharks than he did in his fifth and final year with the Chicago Blackhawks. One, the Sharks (27-22-4) are winning more games and are in the mix for a playoff spot. Two, when he's healthy, Kurashev's been in the lineup on a more regular basis."
"After Brad Richardson was fired as the team's coach on Dec. 6, 2024, following a 8-16-2 start, and replaced in the interim by Anders Sorensen, Kurashev's ice time fell by over five minutes per game and his production cratered. He managed just nine points in his final 31 games with the team. Starting on Dec. 17, 2024, Kurashev was scratched for 12 of the following 15 games."
Philipp Kurashev is in his first season with the San Jose Sharks after leaving the Chicago Blackhawks as a restricted free agent. He signed a one-year, $1.2 million contract with San Jose and is set to be a restricted free agent again this summer. Kurashev has 15 points in 32 games and has appeared in the lineup more regularly when healthy. The Sharks are 27-22-4 and contending for a playoff spot. Kurashev struggled in his final Blackhawks season after coach Brad Richardson was fired, losing over five minutes of ice time, scoring nine points in his last 31 games and being scratched frequently.
