This is a disappointing letdown. The way that the standings are so close, getting 1 instead of 2 points this game might be the difference between making the playoffs and not making it.
Again, Sharks have a problem holding a lead, especially in the tight, clutch situations with 2 or so minutes left. They don't have the ability to play shutdown D with a 1 goal lead.
I'm not sure trading for Sherwood was the best use of draft capital. We could have gotten a mid-2 pair D-man with that.
ooof
they got hemmed in for 5 minutes by one of the best offenses in the league, but in truth they get hemmed in by a lot of teams. They must find a way to better deal with this pressure defensively.
