Today, the Barracuda play home games at Tech CU Arena.

The Barracuda organization is relatively young in its current form: in 2015, the Sharks relocated their AHL franchise from Worcester, Massachusetts, to San Jose, rebranding it as the Barracuda. 

Prior to that, San Jose’s affiliate history included stints with the Cleveland Barons (2001–2006) and the Worcester Sharks (2006–2015). 

Here's everything you need to watch the San Jose Barracuda live on FloHockey this season.
