Editor's note: The Sharks are currently enjoying their bye week before the kicking off the last 30 games of the season against the Coyotes on Saturday evening. There are a few questions facing all three position groups as San Jose heads down the stretch run. This week, we'll pose key questions facing the goaltenders, the defense, and the offense. Today's edition covers the defense.
