|
| | | VEGAS: LAST SEASON: 51-24-7, 109 points. First place Pacific Division. LOST to Washington Capitals in Stanley Cup Final
COACH: Gerard Gallant (second season, eighth NHL season).
ADDED: LW Max Pacioretty, C Paul Stastny, D Nick Holden
LOST: RW James Neal, LW David Perron, D Luca Sbisa
PLAYER TO WATCH: William Karlsson. Before last season, Karlsson's previous career highs were nine goals and 20 points, numbers he reached in 2015-16. Last season, he was the catalyst for the Golden Knights' high-octane offense by finishing with 43 goals and 78 points in the regular season. He agreed to a one-year, $5.25 million extension over the summer and will be looking to prove he's worth every dollar and deserving of a bigger contract next summer.
OUTLOOK: After their run to the Stanley Cup Final, the losses of Neal and Perron meant the Golden Knights would take a significant hit to their offense. But the additions of Stastny and Pacioretty immediately made Vegas a contender again. Shea Theodore ended his holdout, and when fellow-defenseman Nate Schmidt returns from his 20-game suspension in November, the Knights may be favored to win the Western Conference again. | | SAN JOSE: LAST SEASON: 45-27-10, 100 points. Third place in Pacific Division. LOST to Vegas Golden Knights in Western Conference semifinals.
COACH: Peter DeBoer (fourth season, 11th NHL season).
ADDED: D Erik Karlsson, F Antti Suomela, F Rourke Chartier.
LOST: F Chris Tierney, D Dylan DeMelo, F Mikkel Boedker, F Eric Fehr, F Joel Ward, F Jannik Hansen, D Paul Martin. PLAYER TO WATCH: Karlsson. The Sharks ADDED the two-time Norris Trophy-winning defenseman on the eve of training camp in a blockbuster move. Karlsson is an elite playmaker and defenseman and should provide a major boost to San Jose on the power play, as well as five-on-five play.
OUTLOOK: Ever since acquiring Joe Thornton in general manager Doug Wilson's first blockbuster trade back in 2005, the Sharks have viewed themselves as Stanley Cup contenders almost every season. That is clearly the case this year after adding Karlsson to a defensive unit that already featured 2016 Norris winner Brent Burns and shut-down defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic. The Sharks are potentially thin at center and will need a healthy season from Thornton at age 39 after two straight years with major knee injuries in order to challenge for the Cup. |
| | Reeling Sharks still confident at home vs. Knights
Trailing the Vegas Golden Knights 3-1 in their best-of-seven Western Conference quarterfinal and faced with major goaltending issues, things are looking pretty bleak for the San Jose Sharks heading into Thursday night's Game 5 in San Jose. San Jose has lost three in a row, including 5-0 on Tuesday night, while being outscored 16-6, and starting goaltender Martin Jones hasn't made it to the second period in two of the losses after being pulled following shaky starts. So what gives the Sharks hope they can rebound to win the series? "We're still playing," said forward Logan Couture. "We've got a chance. It's never over till it's over. We go home to where we've been good all year ... try to win a game, and that's that." The Golden Knights agree. "We need to forget about this win," said forward Max Pacioretty after scoring two goals and two assists in Tuesday's win. "We are going into the next game knowing that from the start, they are going to give it their all, so we need to be ready for that, and we need to match their intensity next game." "Doesn't matter what happened 1/8Tuesday 3/8," added forward Alex Tuch. "It's a clean slate. Everyone's going to come out, it's going to be physical, it's going to be gritty. We've got to grind it out." San Jose went 25-11-5 at SAP Center during the regular season and split the first two games there, including an impressive 5-2 victory in Game 1. "For us, it's take care of home ice right now in that first game," said Sharks captain Joe Pavelski. "Win a game. We know we can win one game (in Las Vegas). We believe that as a group. "But we've got to win our next game, and I think it sets up for us when we win at home. We get a little rest with the two-day break (Game 6 is scheduled for Sunday in Las Vegas), then come back here and dig in and gut out a win here and come back. So, I think there is a formula for us, but it's get that first one." To do that, the Sharks also will need much better goaltending from Jones, who will start again on Thursday night despite being pulled at the end of the first period on Tuesday after allowing two goals on just seven shots. Vegas, which defeated the Sharks 4-2 in last year's Western Conference semifinals, and San Jose have played 10 games in the playoffs the last two seasons, with Marc-Andre Fleury and Jones starting all 10 of them. Fleury, who had 28 saves in Tuesday night's win to move into a tie with Chris Osgood for fourth place all-time with 15 career playoff shutouts, has registered three shutouts against the Sharks in that span compared to one for Jones. Jones, meanwhile, has been pulled four times. "He has to be better; he's got to be better," San Jose coach Peter DeBoer said after Tuesday night's loss. "We wouldn't have won tonight anyways because we didn't score a goal. We've got to find a way to score, and we've got to get some good goaltending, too. That's their formula. That's what's working for them." San Jose should get a boost with the return of center Joe Thornton from a one-game suspension for delivering a blow to the head of Tomas Nosek. Defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic, sidelined since taking a high shot from Shea Theodore in Game 2, returned to practice on Wednesday and is "a possibility" to play Thursday, according to DeBoer. --Field Level Media |
