METHOD FIXED IN ADVANCE: read the Barracuda's final regular-season team scoring list at sjbarracuda.com/stats, or the club's team page at theahl.com, after the last regular-season game. Regular season only, so Calder Cup playoff points do not count. Points he scores in the NHL do not count. A tie at the top scores this WRONG.

The piece that made itThe Contract San Jose Gave Alex Barré-Boulet Names Two Salaries And One CityAlex Barré-Boulet is 29, from Montmagny, Quebec, and was never drafted. In eight seasons in the American Hockey League he has played 428 games and scored 435 points, a total the Sharks' own signing release and hockeydb's career table produce independently and identically. In the National Hockey League he has played 72 games and scored 19 points. Last season with the Colorado Eagles he finished second in the AHL with 70 points in 70 games and was named to the league's First All-Star Team on April 16, the same Thursday Colorado recalled him and he played thirteen minutes against Seattle without a shot on goal. San Jose signed him on July 1 to a two-year, two-way contract paying $850,000 in the NHL and $550,000 in the AHL. His first professional contract, signed with Tampa Bay on March 1, 2018, paid $70,000 in the minors.

Stephen Curry became eligible on August 29 to extend a contract that pays him $62,587,158 this season and makes him the highest-paid player in the league. The most he can add is two years and $136.7 million, because the NBA's Over-38 Rule will not let him be under contract for more than three. He spoke about it for the first time on Monday, at the seventh annual Workday Charity Classic at the Palo Alto Hills Golf & Country Club, and said the deal will happen at the right time. Anthony Slater reported on September 1 that the Warriors are not negotiating at all: they have laid out the one-year max, the two-year max and waiting, and told him to pick. The eligibility runs until his contract expires on June 30, 2027, and if he waits past that and reaches free agency he can sign for three years instead of two.

Carver Willis is 24, from Durango, Colorado, and arrived in San Francisco after six college seasons, five at Kansas State and one at Washington, 45 games and 28 starts, every one of them at tackle and none at guard. He sold himself to the league as a man who could back up all five offensive line positions, and he took reps at all five at the Senior Bowl and at Washington's pro day. John Chapman, a former coach who breaks down 49ers film on his own podcast, says the reason Willis blocks so well in the run game and so badly in pass protection is one specific thing: he has no true anchor step, he bends at the waist rather than the knees, and interior linemen get under his shoulder pads and lift. Chapman says a center goes one-on-one in pass protection roughly three to six times a game against seven to fifteen for a guard, which is why a lineman who cannot anchor keeps getting moved inside. San Francisco has already moved Willis from tackle to guard, and he has taken reps at center. The club says the left guard job is down to Willis and Connor Colby, with Kyle Shanahan calling it close to being decided and Thursday night at Las Vegas the last evaluation. The roster is due Sunday at 3:00 p.m. PT and the season opens against the Rams in Melbourne on September 10.

Rod Moore tore his ACL in March 2024, did not appear in a game that season, came back for three games in the autumn of 2025 and has not played since October 11. In that time his teammates have voted him a captain three times, in 2024, in 2025 and again on Monday night. Michigan calls him the first player in school history to be voted a three-time captain, a sentence that turns on the word voted, and the university's own archive shows why.

Andrew Knizner is 31, was drafted in the seventh round in 2016, and has spent a decade being employed for the half of catching that never reaches a batting line. Seattle released him in March. Colorado released him in June. His Boston contract ended on August 7. Four days later the Giants signed him, and the last major league inning he caught was in their building, on September 27, a year to the day before their season ends.

At a Warriors practice in Los Angeles on April 14, Curry defined the phrase he had been using. It was not a win total or a round of the playoffs. It was four names and a request that they stay in the same building. One of the four has been gone since 2024. The other three signed contracts that end within a year of each other.

The 49ers opened camp this weekend without the man who has run it since 2017. Everything known about how he is has come from somebody else's mouth.
