The account @deerdovie commented on the post and said, “I actually cannot breathe rn omg😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭”

While playing the role of Sharkie is a job, @Alf3k was left wishing that was their job, commenting, “That’s gotta be the funnest job in the world.”

As everything appears to be all fine and well with Sharkie, the Sharks had an impressive season opener, knocking off the Florida Panthers 4-3 on Thursday night. Center Will Smith had two goals that night, and also had the game-winning assist when Luca Cagnoni won the game in overtime.

The Sharks are set to play their second game of the season in a home game against the Los Angeles Kings.
