Sharks host annual Teal & White Game
By Mike Lee

Shark season ticket holders enjoyed the team's annual Teal & White Game at HP Pavilion on Tuesday night, before one of the better turnouts in event history. Part scrimmage, part reward for the fans willing to shell out the big bucks for an annual commitment, the event gives the players a chance to shake out the cobwebs in a real arena, and it provides fans with a chance to get a taste of what's to come this season.

Mitchell out 8 weeks after bad break
By Mike Lee

If the Sharks were looking for a little adversity to spice up training camp, they got a huge dose of it on Sunday. 2nd year center Torrey Mitchell sustained a fracture to both the Tibia and Fibula in his left leg after a freak accident during Sunday's inter-squad scrimmage. The bones were not displaced, but were complete fractures, which will require Mitchell to undergo surgery on Sunday night.
