SAN JOSE — Before the 2022-2023 season, the San Jose Sharks took 27 players overseas for two regular season games against the Nashville Predators in Czechia. Three others had to stay behind because of injuries. Of those 30 players, only 12 are still in the Sharks organization. More departures are expected soon as Mike Grier completes his second full season as the Sharks’ general manager, an era mostly been defined by the departures of a handful of stars and a staggering number of losses. “The initial phase of (the rebuild) and probably the most painful part of it is over with,” Grier said Saturday, “now we’ve got to build it up.” As the Sharks begin their offseason after finishing last in the NHL standings with a 19-54-9 record, here’s a look at who will likely be back, and who might not, with the players mentioned on the NHL roster or on expiring contracts. FRONT OFFICE It would be somewhat shocking to see owner Hasso Plattner and president Jonathan Becher make a change in hockey operations leadership right now. Since his hiring in July 2022, Grier

By Jim Rossman, Tribune News Service I sleep with a fan blowing to move the air in my bedroom. Over the years I’ve had all sorts of fans, but for the last few years, my choice has been a Dyson fan sitting on a small table. The Dyson fan I’ve been using was the Pure Hot+Cool. The Pure meant it had a HEPA filter, and Hot+Cool means it’s a heater as well as a fan. I loved that the HEPA filter meant I was cleaning the air in the bedroom as I was being lulled to sleep by the cool breezes. Earlier this year, Dyson asked if I wanted to review the latest version, the Dyson Purifier Hot+Cool Formaldehyde ($849.99, Dyson.com), which is quite a mouthful. It has a model number of HP09, so let’s call it that for this review. What is it? The HP09 is a beautiful machine, it is silver, gold and white. If you are not familiar with Dyson fans, they are cylindrical at the bottom, where the air is drawn in and passed through a filter before being forced out

SANTA CLARA — 49ers general manager John Lynch met with the media to discuss the lead-up to the April 25 NFL Draft, but the biggest topic was a not a prospective rookie, but rather a star receiver currently under contract. All-Pro wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, 26, has been the subject of much speculation, as he’s entering the final year of his contract and could be dealt if the 49ers can’t find a long-term deal with him. At the end of his opening remarks, Lynch tried to get ahead of the topic. “With B.A., I’ve communicated on many occasions: our wish is that he’s here as part of the Niners for the rest of his career,” Lynch said. “We’re working through that,” Lynch added. Aiyuk has not been around the team, Lynch said. The 49ers have received calls on the star receiver, the executive added. “I’m not going to get in all those details,” Lynch said. “We’re really focused on B.A. being a part of (our team).” Aiyuk’s agent recently took issue with a report that Aiyuk has requested a trade. A trade would most likely

By NICK PERRY and DAVE COLLINS (Associated Press) Columbia University canceled in-person classes on Monday and new demonstrations broke out on other U.S. college campuses as tensions continue to grow over Israel’s war in Gaza. Police arrested several dozen protesters at Yale University on Monday morning after officials at the New Haven, Connecticut, school said they defied warnings over the weekend to leave. And following arrests last week at Columbia, pro-Palestinian demonstrators set up encampments on other campuses around the country, including at the University of Michigan, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of North Carolina. The developments came hours before the Monday evening start of the Jewish holiday of Passover. Last week, police arrested more than 100 pro-Palestinian demonstrators at Columbia who had set up an encampment on the New York City campus. On Sunday, a rabbi at Columbia sent a WhatsApp message to more than 200 Jewish students, urging them to leave the New York City campus if they did not feel safe. Columbia President Minouche Shafik said in a note addressed to the school community Monday that she was “deeply

SANTA CLARA — Ten draft picks await the 49ers this week. If they use them all, that would equal their largest draft class since 2017, when coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch arrived to rebuild the franchise into a perennial contender. Yes, they have a first-round pick to use for the first time since their 2021 Trey Lance boondoggle, but, if you dig deeper into who is on this roster, middle-round selections abound. Of the 75 players on the roster — 15 vacancies exist for the draft and its aftermath — that includes 52 players who were drafted into the NFL, 31 by this 49ers’ regime. “You always have to make sure the draft is a lifeblood. That’s the only way to make sure to have sustained success,” 49ers CEO Jed York said at last month’s NFL meetings. “We made a decision (in 2021) to invest three first-round picks in a quarterback that didn’t turn out to be the right choice. We got very lucky and very fortunate that a guy we drafted in the seventh round (Brock Purdy, 2022) made up for
