SAN JOSE SHARKS: Evander Kane: "Drew Doughty can suck it."


12/22/18


Kevin Kurz



San Jose Sharks Forward Evander Kane had some words for Los Angeles Kings Defensemen Drew Doughty after San Jose's 5-3 Victory tonight over the Kings.

"Drew (Doughty) can suck it. That's the bottom line. He can hate us all he wants and live in the past with how the Kings have Stanley Cups and how they beat us and whatever he wants to say. Bottom line is he can suck it. We're focused on this year and winning our first Stanley Cup." Kane stated.

It's no secret that Drew Doughty always has something to say about the history between the Los Angeles Kings and San Jose Sharks.

Scoring Summary

San Jose, CA- The 7 game win streak for the San Jose Sharks(26-9-3) is now over after the Arizona Coyotes(20-12-4) rode 4 Power Play Goals to a 5-3 Victory inside the Shark Tank.

Joe Thornton, Evander Kane, and Gustav Nyquist scored for San Jose but the Coyotes led by Rookie sensation Josh Fisher's 2 Goals scored 4 Goals on 7 Power Plays.

Coyotes Goalie Antti Raanta turned away 29 shots as the Sharks were sloppy.

Sharks Goaltender Martin Jones was under sieged with 54 shots from the Coyotes but managed to turn away 49 of them allowing the 5 Goals for the Arizona Victory.

The Coyotes spent 8 minutes on the Power Play converting 4/7 against the Sharks who had one of the top Penalty Kill Units in the NHL.

But it was a no show tonight.

When the Sharks started their 7 Game win streak it was against the Coyotes who ironically also ended it.

San Jose wraps up their 4 Game homestand after Christmas with the Anaheim Ducks(17-14-7) in town on December 27.

San Jose, CA- Ondrej Kase, Corey Perry, and Alex Henrique scored and Goaltender John Gibson turned away 30 shots and the Anaheim Ducks(18-14-7) beat the San Jose Sharks(26-10-3) Thursday Night.

Anaheim jumped out to a 3 goal lead in just the First Period as Sharks Goaltender Martin Jones was under fire from the opening puck drop.

Curtis Sawyer got San Jose on the board in the closing seconds of the 1st. Sharks Captain Joe Pavelski scored in the Second Period but Anaheim closed the door after that.

The Sharks were sloppy unable to control the puck and caused turnovers in which the Ducks took control and crashed San Jose's net.

"We've been sloppy lately. Too many penalties and giving up too many goals. We need to clean it up." Sharks Head Coach Peter DeBoer stated.

Anaheim also scored on the Power Play with Corey Perry's 10th Goal of the year.

"San Jose is a Team you have to get up quick on otherwise they'll score fast and you won't have a chance. They're that good of a Team." Ducks Head Coach Randy Carlyle stated.

The Sharks(26-10-3) end their 4 Game homestand and will head on the road up to Western Canada to meet the Edmonton Oilers.

SHARKS head to Western Canada with Redemption on mind...


PREVIEW 12/29/18

The San Jose Sharks(26-10-3) have lost 2 games in a row after going on a 7 game winning streak. Now after a 4 Game Homestand, San Jose turns their attention to a Western Canada Trip with a stop in Edmonton(20-14-3).

The Sharks have redemption on their mind and for good reason.

Todd McLellan.

The former Sharks Coach has been a thorn in the side of San Jose dating back to the 2017 Stanley Cup Playoffs where McLellan's Oilers have eliminated the Sharks in Six Games.

Edmonton beat San Jose on November 20, 2-1 in Overtime in San Jose where the Sharks faithful booed McLellan heavilly.

San Jose will look to get some revenge against Edmonton as this could be a potential Playoff Series come April.

The Sharks will then head to Calgary on New Years Eve to play the Flames(20-14-4) before wrapping up their 3 Game road trip with a stop in Denver to play the best Team in Hockey. The Colorado Avalanche(28-9-1).

Edmonton, AB- The San Jose Sharks(27-10-3) got some revenge on their old Head Coach Todd McLellan and the Edmonton Oilers(20-15-3) with a 5-1 thrashing inside the Rogers Place.

The Oilers have snapped their 3 game win streak with tonight's loss while the Sharks rebound from dropping the past 2 games against the Ducks and Coyotes.

"They got us tonight. We beat them in San Jose last month so I guess they owed us that." Oilers Head Coach Todd McLellan said.

With the loss, Edmonton sits at 9th in the Western Conference out of the Playoff Picture but are tied with 43 points with the Winnipeg Jets for the 8th Seed.

"Still a ways to go for us. We just need to bounce back and win some games." Oilers Captain Connor McDavid said.

San Jose got on the board midway through the First Period with a Tomas Hertl goal. His 6th of the year.

Rookie J.J Hart, Timo Meier, Evander Kane, and Justin Braun all scored as the Sharks(27-10-3) beat the Oilers.

Goalie Martin Jones rebounded as well allowing one Goal on 21 shots.

Oilers Milan Lucic's 7th Goal of the year ended the shutout with a rebound goal in a wide open net that put Edmonton(20-15-3) on the board.

Goalie Mikko Koskinen turned away 37 shots as San Jose attacked the Oilers net often.

"We needed to get to the net often. Koskinen is a brick wall and you're not gonna beat him very often. We threw 42 shots at him." Sharks Forward Evander Kane stated.

The Sharks cleaned up their play as neither Team committed any penalties.

"Much better performance from us tonight after the past two games. When we play like that there's not a Team in the league who can beat us. We believe that and it showed tonight." Sharks Head Coach Peter DeBoer stated.

San Jose(27-10-3) heads to Calgary on New Years Eve to play the Flames(21-14-4).

San Jose beat the Flames on November 11 2-1 in Overtime in San Jose.

Calgary went 0/2 on the Power Play as San Jose's Penalty Kill Unit continues to give Teams fits across the NHL.

Calgary started Rookie Goalie Dante Raymond(1-3) and the Rookie turned away 35 shots.

"Missed chances. We need to capitalize on those and tonight we didn't do that." Flames Head Coach Bill Peters said.

The Flames(21-15-4) sit in 3rd Place in the Pacific Division behind the Arizona Coyotes and Division leading San Jose Sharks.

5. Pittsburgh Penguins(22-15-2)

Last Month: 7



The Penguins continue to surge as they sit 4 points behind the Rangers in the Metropolitan Division.

6. Chicago Blackhawks(20-18-4)

Oshie, Ovechkin, Carlson, DSP, and Goalie Braden Holtby.


8. Nashville Predators(24-14-3)

Last Month: 10

Denver, CO- The Colorado Avalanche(30-10-1) saw just how good the San Jose Sharks(20-10-3) are.

Tomas Hertl, Tyler Adams, JJ Hart, Joe Pavelski, and Gustav Nyquist all scored and the Sharks blew out the Av's 5-1 inside the Pepsi Center in Denver.

Colorado got a first look at how quick San Jose can be as 41 seconds in the First Period, Sharks Rookie Tyler Adams scored.

"It was quick. They got on us fast. That's the thing about San Jose this year. They'll get up on you quick. We simply didn't see it coming." Avalanche Head Coach Jared Bedner said.

The Avalanche showed exactly why they are the hottest Team in the NHL entering the New Year as they crashed the Sharks net often.

But Goalie Martin Jones held his ground by turning away 49 shots and keeping Colorado off the board until 34 seconds left in the Game when Avalanche Samuel Girard scored.

It was too late as San Jose held a 5-1 lead.

"Jonesy was unbelievable tonight for us. Doing what he did against a hot Team like Colorado is just amazing." Sharks Head Coach Peter DeBoer said.

"You really have to respect what Jones did for them tonight. The man stopped almost 50 shots and was phenomenal for them between the pipes." Bedner added.

Colorado(30-10-1) decided to give Semyon Varlamov the night off and started backup Goaltender Kari Lehtonen(5-4)

Lehtonen absolutely struggled against the Sharks high paced Offense allowing 4 Goals on just 19 shots.

"They're a really fast paced squad and they have a lot of firepower over there." Lehtonen stated.

The Sharks(29-10-3) took a 4-0 lead until the 10 minute mark in the 3rd Period when the Avalanche pulled Kari Lehtonen and sent out Semyon Varlamov to stop the bleeding.

And now San Jose saw just how good the Avalanche Netminder really is as Varlamov allowed just one Goal on 18 shots by San Jose.

"He came in and took the game over in a way. We got a goal on him but you're really not going to beat him often." Sharks Captain Joe Pavelski said.

Martin Jones was 34 seconds away from his 6th Shutout of the year before letting a goal slip between his legs.

With the win, San Jose is now tied with Colorado with 61 points leading the NHL.

The Av's also saw first hand just how good the Fins Penalty Kill is as Colorado failed on 3 Power Plays including a 5 minute one after Sharks Alternate Captain was ejected for a Boarding call.

He left to the locker room for Misconduct.

"Wasn't intentional. It was an unfortunate accident on my end." Couture stated.

San Jose spent 26 minutes of Penalty time but killed the Avalanche's Power Play.

"They're one of the best in the League at killing Power Plays. We failed on our chances and that's how they beat you." Avalanche Jared Bedner added.

San Jose(29-10-3) heads home to meet the Tampa Bay Lightning(17-19-4) on Saturday Night.

The Sharks have won 3 in a row.

"The President's Trophy is a nice achievement but we have our eyes set on another Trophy. The fans of our City deserve a Championship. We're trying to give it to them." Sharks Head Coach Peter DeBoer stated.

The Sharks got on the board with 4 minutes left in the First Period but the Lightning quickly tied it up.

Tampa Bay's fast paced Offense crashed the Sharks net but Goaltender Martin Jones held his ground turning away 33 shots.

Yanni Gourde, Tyler Johnson, and Alex Killorn scored for the Lightning while

But Oilers Netminder Mikko Koskinen shut the door afterwards turning away 28 shots.

"He's a really good Goaltender." Sharks Head Coach Peter DeBoer stated. "We got one past him but he's usually always gonna be on top of that."

The Sharks held a 1-0 lead into the Third Period where Edmonton(23-17-3) struggled to get shots on Goal.

"We struggled tonight. No other way of putting it." Oilers Head Coach Todd McLellan stated.

The Sharks faithful rained boos down on the Oilers bench and taunted their old Head Coach between the breaks.

It's a bitter history. McLellan spent so many years behind the bench of San Jose.

Martin Jones turned away 15 shots for his 8th Shutout of the year.
