I know the county they play in was urging people to cancel and not go to large events but that was a few days ago and the sharks already had a home game since then

Santa Clara county banned all events of over 1000 people for 3 weeks. No word from sharks yet.

Can probably lock this thread seeing no major outlets have picked up on it. I can't imagine any team can just decide to shut down operations like that.

This guy is a former sharks journalist, says nothing official but seems like a definite possibility at this point:

It looks like they don’t play at home until the 19th unless I misread the schedule. Maybe some neutral site games. If this is even true which I question as I haven’t seen any major sport network announcing this.

Sharks front office is probably not getting a whole lot of sleep tonight.

I guess they'll still be played and televised just no fans in attendance. That's my guess.

Saskatoon had offered to host neutral site games. I'm not smart enough to embed.

If the NHL pursues plans for neutral-site games bc of coronavirus, the SaskTelCentre in Saskatoon will accommodate, CEO Scott Ford says.
Schedule filling with WHL playoffs & lacrosse but they would make it work, Ford says.
(Saskatchewan does not have a known case of the virus.)
