It’s a boy!

Couture, on the Sharks' 2022-23 NHL season being an uphill climb from the beginning:

"Yeah, starting [0-5-0] or whatever, it was tough. I mean, you’re climbing out of a hole, or trying to, and with our travel, we’re in Prague, and then we’re on the East Coast. I sound like I’m making excuses, but I’m not trying to make excuses. It was difficult travel to start the year and got behind the eight ball a little bit and couldn’t find our way to get wins, and obviously, that’s on us. It was tough to start the way that we did."
