In an article I wrote a couple of weeks ago, I explained what the Sharks needed to do in order to repeat as Western Conference Champions. Coming out of the break they were first in the pacific division and only chasing the Minnesota Wild for the top seed in the west. How have they done since then?
San Jose has played seven games since the break and went 3-1-3. Coming off a collapse in Buffalo, a beatdown in Boston and an overtime loss in Philadelphia, the Sharks broke their losing streak and beat the New Jersey Devils 4-1 Sunday.
