MONTREAL — Whatever Sharks coach Pete DeBoer and general manager Doug Wilson said in closed-door meetings that lasted more than a half-hour Sunday morning must have resonated with the team.
The Sharks (13-10-5) ended their five-game road trip with a win in Montreal Sunday, snapping a four-game losing streak and ending a string of six straight road losses. The win came on the heels of a blowout loss in Ottawa that inspired Sunday’s team meetings. https://embed.sendtonews.com/oembed/?fk=gSRFbr8q&cid=8161&sound=off&format=json&offsetx=0&offsety=0&floatwidth=400&floatposition=bottom-right&float=on
Logan Couture said the team held meetings with both the coach and the general manager. They came at a time when DeBoer is facing heat from the fan base for the team’s subpar performance in the wake of the Erik Karlsson trade.
