The San Jose Sharks selected defenseman Mike Rathje with their first selection in the 1992 NHL Entry Draft. Rathje made his NHL debut for the 1993-94 season and the native of Alberta, Canada would go on to play 11 seasons with the Sharks. Plaguing injuries shortened his career after moving on from the Sharks, but in his final three seasons in San Jose, Rathje averaged five goals and 17 points and was a plus-22.

After over a decade of hockey in the Soviet League, Igor Larionov took his game to North America and added nearly 1,000 NHL games to his career. He spent 97 of those games with the San Jose Sharks and although not nearly his longest tenure with a single NHL club, Larionov's time in San Jose made an immediate impact on the franchise. The man known as "The Professor" assisted in the team's 59 point turnaround in his first season, leading the Sharks to their first-ever playoff berth. Larionov was also part of another franchise first when the Russian native became the first former Sharks player to be inducted to the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Jeff Friesen arrived in San Jose after the Sharks selected the Saskatchewan native with their first choice in the 1994 draft. Friesen found himself on the ice immediately for the Sharks. He skated in 48 games his rookie season, producing 25 points and was named to the NHL All-Rookie team. Friesen would skate on to another six seasons with the Sharks before a trade moved the winger south to Anaheim. Friesen played 14 seasons in the NHL, eclipsing 500 points and nearly 500 penalty minutes.

The role of backup goaltender can be as tough of job as they come in the NHL. At any moment, their number can be called, requiring a high level of play after coming in cold off the bench. Assuming that backup role in 2011-12, Thomas Greiss played 19 games collecting 9 wins for the Sharks. Some of Greiss' relief efforts were quite stellar, notably a 29 save performance against Pittsburgh on November 3 to get a shootout victory. Greiss also showed off some late game heroics later in the season when he won the first game in Sharks history by a goalie who entered the game in the third period or later when trailing.
