San Jose Sharks' Poor Effort Leads To Eighth Straight Loss

[@rocknroll368]

Sharks were missing Eklund and Wahlman. When the Sharks had some scoring opportunities it was Cellebrini that initiated it.

By the way at the game last night they played a video where someone (I think Liljegren) picked a New Year's resolution for Mario Ferraro and it was for Ferraro to wear socks with his skates, so there's a new example for you to use now that Merkley's playing in Russia.

Fourgiev's soft goals will make any team give up fighting. We've seen it with the Avs. He's a confidence killer.

Who do you think Grier picks between Misa, Hagens, Schaefer, and Martone?

[@laxg64]

Schaefer absolutely. Need defense more than anything

[@TwonVonJon]

They need a leader on the ice. I still dont even know what is wrong with Logan Couture and I have researched it multiple times. Where is this dude? Where is this teams leader? Celebrin can be it but he is only 18. I doubt he would feel comfortable telling grown men what to do and to man up. But man, these guys need some more guys with some motivation. Edit: Georgiev is cooked.

[@LockedOnSharks]

Still dealing with his hip issue. Don’t expect him back.

[@TwonVonJon]

@LockedOnSharks thanks for replying. That's all I can see or find is that he has a hip issue, but it's not clear or specific or very informative. I feel bad for Celebrini. The kid is a winner and competitor. Losing takes a toll on a young guy like that. Someone has to step up and take charge, and as the coach said, show some desperation.

Let's face it, management wants another top pick. They are happy with the losses

Hockey is won in the corners, along the boards and in front of the net.

Omg we tanking again!

[@ponyboy9765]

This was a game between a well coached team and a poorly coached team. Sharks continue to have poor defensive structure and are constantly missing assignments. And for the love of god please stop starting Fourgiev Edit: I know we can’t play Askarov every night but Philly is probably the weakest team we’ve played in weeks. This is a game you start Askarov against. So now what we’re gonna start him against Tampa? Make it make sense.

Trade Granlund back to Minnesota - I heard that’s a possibility

[@stuartwilliams1598]

There are too many 4th liners and 3rd pairing guys -- not enough high end talent. Everyone sees and knows it. Those vets have trade value, but it will be ugly (and moments of wow) if you go all youth.
