SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Things seemed to be shaping up for Tristan Jarry to make his return to the crease Tuesday night when the Penguins visited the Sharks at the SAP Center here in San Jose, but it ended up being Casey DeSmith between the pipes for his seventh consecutive start.

DeSmith, who came into Tuesday's game with a 9-11-4 record and .903 save percentage, has been wildly inconsistent this season. Not all, but in most of his starts this season, it's seemed as though he's either lights out or ... well, getting lit up.
