During his tenure with the Sharks he was named captain, and registered his best career year in 1999–00, finishing with 84 points, and tied for second in the NHL with 44 goals.Nolan has been chosen as an NHL all-star in 1991–92, 1995–96, 1996–97, 1999–00, 2001–02. In the 1997 National Hockey League All-Star Game, playing in front of his home crowd in San Jose, he performed a 'Called Shot', pointing to the top corner of the net during a breakaway and promptly scoring there against Dominik Hašek, to complete his hat trick. Earlier in the game, he set a record by scoring two goals eight seconds apart.
