Hockey lacks excitement without a touch of drama. The scenario could involve an on-ice confrontation between two players or a situation unfolding between a player and their franchise behind the scenes. In a surprising turn of events, Logan Couture, the captain of the San Jose Sharks, had unfollowed the team’s official Instagram account and deleted images showcasing the Sharks from his profile.
Shark City Hockey shared this update on X, reporting, “Trending Now: Logan Couture has unfollowed and purged his Instagram account of pictures with the #SJSharks.” Indeed, this development is significant for a player like Couture, who has shown unwavering commitment to the franchise since being drafted by the Sharks in 2007.
This development sparked curiosity among supporters and the press about possible hidden tensions or shifts in his rapport with the organization. However, this viewpoint has now shifted. What is the reason for that?
Once more on X, Shark City Hockey shared an update: “Update: Logan Couture is following the San Jose Sharks again.” So apparently, the Sharks captain has followed back his franchise on Instagram. There has been no official statement from Couture or the team regarding these actions. And guess what? Couture’s absence from the Sharks’ lineup is significant, as he is sidelined with a deep groin injury that he sustained in January 2024.

As of now, he has yet to return to skating, and his involvement in team activities, including the yearly team photo day, has been restricted due to personal issues. The recent events have prompted fans on social media to engage in a flurry of speculation, suggesting that such behavior online may often be coincidental or personal, devoid of wider significance.
Confused by the drama between the San Jose Sharks and their captain
The current situation is undoubtedly troubling and confusing for fans of the San Jose Sharks. A fan expressed a candid response, saying, “wtf.” Another supporter highlighted the intense scenario, remarking, “girl whatever.” A bewildered fan expressed, “What is going on???”
With the ongoing 2024–25 season, it is noteworthy that Couture is set to have three seasons left on his current contract, leading to an anticipated unrestricted free agency status when it concludes in 2027.
Recall his remarks regarding the franchise? “Right now, I’m injured. I just want to play hockey again. That’s where my mind is at. If I can get back to playing hockey again, that’s a question you can ask me, but I want to be on the Sharks. I love this place,” Couture remarked. Throughout numerous seasons, he has donned the Sharks colors, and despite the team’s struggles, his loyalty to the franchise has never wavered.
In response to this development, one frustrated fan remarked, “This dudes a clown always has been.” A different supporter commented, “Never a moment of peace when you’re a sharks fan.” Clearly, supporters are left in a state of bewilderment regarding the events that unfolded. The team is facing challenges in the NHL, and observing their captain, currently sidelined by injury, attempting such stints has only added to their woes.
