Sharks Muddy Offense Can't Find Traction Against The Blackhawks

Locked On Sharks - Daily Podcast On The San Jose Sharks

The San Jose Sharks offense couldn't get going in the first two periods against the Chicago Blackhawks, and they eventually lost 4-2. Start with the stale offense and the disappointment that the Sharks couldn't make it a game against an equal opponent. Then, Sharks prospect Will Smith had his best NHL game. Analyze what went right for Smith as he racked up over 19 minutes of ice time and looked more confident. Next, examine the numbers behind the game, how the Sharks made the numbers closer than expected in the third period, how the offense turned around when William Eklund, Mikael Granlund, and Tyler Toffoli started clicking, and how Will Smith's line performed. Finally, Ryan Warsofsky stated there should be lineup changes for Friday night's game against the Winnipeg Jets. Do we see Danil Gushchin's return?
