San Jose Sharks coach David Quinn on Radim Simek: “I like his energy, I like his in-your-face approach.”
SAN JOSE – The San Jose Sharks have a handful of players looking for fresh starts this season with the team’s new coaching staff, and defenseman Radim Simek is right near the top of that list.
In all, Simek, who turned 30 on Tuesday, played in just 36 games and saw his average ice time drop to a career-low 13:17 per night – about four minutes less than it was two years ago. Simek is at his best when he’s using his body to end plays in the defensive zone, and joining the rush whenever the opportunity arises.
Simek’s situation didn’t really improve from there, and toward the end of last season when he knew he wouldn’t be in the lineup, Simek said he was actually using his time on the ice after practices and morning skates to get physically ready for the World Championships. Off the ice, the first half of 2022 was a blessing as Simek and his wife, Anna, welcomed their first baby, Melinda, in January.
