[edit] Biography
Marcel Goc (pronounced Goch) (born August 24, 1983 in Calw, West Germany) is a NHL player currently playing center for the San Jose Sharks. He was drafted in the 1st round, 20th overall by the Sharks in the 2001 NHL Entry Draft, though he remained in Germany until 2003. He spent all of the 2003-2004 season with the Cleveland Barons, the Sharks' then minor league affiliate, but joined the Sharks during the 2004 playoffs. He holds the franchise record in Cleveland for longest assist streak (7 games). He has played for Team Germany in many tournaments, like the 2000 (as a sixteen-year-old) and 2001 World Junior Championships, the 2001 U18 Championships, the 2002 World Junior tournament, the 2003 Swiss Cup, the 2005 World Championships and the 2006 Winter Olympics. Touted for his defensive prowess and faceoff skills, Goc looks to be a fixture on team Germany for many years.
Goc is in the final year of a two-year-contract worth US$1.575 million, signed in July 2006.
