Ex-Shark Patrick Marleau's wife trolls his on-ice attire at practice

No longer sporting a Sharks uniform after spending two decades with the team, it appears Patrick Marleau might have forgotten how to dress -- or perhaps he’s just lazy.

His wife, Christina, recently poked fun at him after she took a video of him practicing with his elbow pads over his sweatshirt. 

In his defense, it has been a while since games have been played, but it’s a bit of a fashion faux pas. 

Marleau, now with the Pittsburgh Penguins, joined other teams in Phase 2 of opening facilities for players to practice and participate in on-ice workouts gearing toward the resumption of the season and playoffs. 

The Sharks are not included in the return-to-play plan and modified playoff format, as they sat in last place in the Western Conference (14-20-3) at the time of the season’s indefinite pause due to the coronavirus pandemic. 

There are COVID-19 restrictions in place, of course, with a maximum of six players training at once and wearing face coverings at all times except while exercising or while on the ice.

Phase 3 will open formal NHL training camps, but that won’t happen until early July.

Perhaps by then, Marleau will get his bearings back and remember how to dress.
