Now in his 19th NHL season, he finds himself as a sixth or seventh defenseman. With San Jose undergoing a rebuild and integrating younger players, Vlasic's ice time has diminished. Despite these setbacks, he has shown commendable performance when given a chance, as highlighted by his recent contributions in a close game against the Winnipeg Jets.
