The San Jose Sharks have found themselves with a little bit of momentum, riding a two-game win streak into the weekend. Despite a 6-10-1 record, their most recent two games have at least been a cause for some optimism surrounding the franchise.
Sure, the two victories came at the expense of the Central Division’s two bottom-feeders in the Chicago Blackhawks and Minnesota Wild. But it was certainly promising to see the team pick up two much-needed wins.
Unfortunately, those two games weren’t quite as one-sided as they perhaps should have been.
In both matchups, the Sharks jumped out to multi-goal leads and seemed like they had victory all but secured.
