The 2020–21 San Jose Sharks season was the 30th season for the National Hockey League franchise that was established on May 9, 1990.^[1]

On December 20, 2020, the league temporarily realigned into four divisions with no conferences due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing closure of the Canada–United States border. As a result of this realignment, the Sharks will play this season in the West Division and will play games against only the other teams in their new division during the regular season and potentially the first two rounds of the playoffs.^[2]

Due to Santa Clara County banning all contact sports in response to a local rise of COVID-19 cases, the Sharks began the season on an extended road trip.^[3] Their first two home games on February 1 and 3 against the Vegas Golden Knights were to have been held at Gila River Arena, the home of division rival Arizona Coyotes,^[4] but ended up being postponed due to a COVID outbreak among the Golden Knights.^[5] On January 25, Santa Clara County health officials announced that they were lifting the ban,^[6] and the Sharks returned to SAP Center on February 13.^[7]

On May 3, the Sharks were eliminated from playoff contention after a 5–4 overtime loss to the Colorado Avalanche.^[8]
