Michael Kesselring is ready to turn the page on a tough season, signing a three-year, $13.5M deal with the San Jose Sharks. After battling injuries—including a torn quad and high ankle sprain—he admits he rushed his recovery, letting mental setbacks creep in as teammates seized ice time. Now focused on rebuilding his game and mind, he’s bringing in a mental coach and aiming to return to his elite form from two years ago in Utah. He’s excited to reunite with coach Ryan Warsofsky, a mentor from their World Championship run, and to play alongside familiar faces like Will Smith and Thomas Graf. Kesselring also credits Jason Demers, his former mentor and father figure, for guiding him to the NHL—and he’s eager to build on Demers’ legacy in San Jose.
