Short answer: Logan Couture has been the Sharks’ captain since 2019-20, and as of the latest reporting, he remains the captain for the San Jose Sharks.[5]
Context and current status:
- The Sharks’ leadership group has historically included Couture as captain with Mario Ferraro and other players serving as alternates; recent articles reiterate Couture’s role as captain when he was healthy.[5]
- There have been periods where the team used alternating captains or considered future captaincy for prospects, but there is no widely reported, official change to Couture’s captaincy in the most recent seasons up to 2025-26.[1][7][9]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest official team announcement or season-specific leadership roster to confirm the current captaincy status and list any alternates for the current season.
