Every year we like to take a look where former Worcester Sharks are playing across pro hockey, and while the NHL lockout pushed this from its normal late December posting to late January now that rosters seemed to have settled it’s time to take another look at who is playing where.

Below is a list every former player for the WorSharks still playing pro hockey but no longer in the San Jose organization, and where they are playing this season. The teams that are listed are the highest level a player had played this season. Back-up goaltenders and other players that were signed but did not appear in games are not listed, nor are players from this season that have been signed and released. This list is accurate as of Sunday, January 27, 2013.
