Sharks' Pavelski, Couture, Thornton, Burns still without goals against Penguins

SAN JOSE -- The Sharks dropped the crucial Game 4 to Pittsburgh, in part, because their No. 1 weapon was kept quiet: Justin Braun didn't score.

That's not a joke; it's the frustrating reality for the Sharks following their 3-1 loss at SAP Center on Monday.Braun, a defenseman not known for his scoring prowess, has filled the role of the Sharks' biggest gun in the Stanley Cup Final.They have six goals through four games, and two of them are from Braun, who entered the series with one goal in 42 career playoff games.The Sharks' other goals this series have come from the sticks of Joonas Donskoi, Joel Ward, Melker Karlsson and Patrick Marleau.
