As he was checking out at a convenience store one day, state Rep. Kurtis Gregory said he looked down and saw “delta-8 THC” products being sold.He had no idea THC, the intoxicating component mostly associated with marijuana, could be sold openly outside of dispensaries. “I messaged a few folks and to my surprise, yep, that is completely at this point legal to be sold,” Gregory, a Republican from Marshall, said during a House committee hearing on Tuesday.The products that caught Gregory’s eye give people a high by way of a concentrated amount of delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) that’s typically manufactured from hemp-derived cannabidiol, or CBD.

But he knew the direction the organization was taking under then-first-year general manager Dean Lombardi.“It wasn’t a fun year because of the losing,” Hrudey told this news organization in February. “But there was a plan in place that we all recognized.”Now, 26 years later, today’s Sharks players are expressing a similar sentiment.Finishing with a record of 22-44-16, the Sharks just endured one of the worst seasons in franchise history, with five fewer wins than that 1996-97 team.
