The Sharks offense is running a little better lately, after it was a real struggle through December to get consistent goal-scoring. San Jose has moved up to a much more respectable 17th in the NHL in goals-per game (2.66) after hovering in the mid-20s for some time. Here, we hand out grades for the team’s forwards that have played at least 20 games. Again, these are based on performance as well as expectations.
The Sharks certainly expected more than the 17 points Boedker has given them so far, as he’s struggled to fit in.
