If the sharks can win without 4 of their top 5 players now, why did they lose so much with everyone in? This team is absurd...
Someone has to suck in that locker room? Maybe the EK's or something haha. But seriously it is somewhat annoyingIf the sharks can win without 4 of their top 5 players now, why did they lose so much with everyone in? This team is absurd...

I don't mind Boughner.Hell of a game by Jones. He was squaring up well and coming out of the crease frequently to challenge. Maybe he’s getting a little bit of his confidence back.
Also, there are a couple of flaws to Boughner’s system but I like how he always rolls his lines no matter the situation and that he legit trusts his young guys. It shows the way these guys bust their ass every shift knowing they have an actual shot at more ice time unlike Pete who would bench rookies in the 3rd period of a close game for no reason. Jumbo has looked reborn lately as well.
No matter what happens with Boughner after this season, the experience the young guys on D and F are getting up in the NHL will be invaluable going into next year.
Without a doubt. I expected them to lose by 5 goals. It was pretty shocking they won.They very likely aren't making the playoffs, but this game was a huge win going forward. They could have easily phoned it in with all the missing regulars, lack of rest, travel etc, but they didn't.

To be fair, its hard to let 5 goals in against the Wild, even with Jon5sWithout a doubt. I expected them to lose by 5 goals. It was pretty chocking they won.
If he gets this roster into the playoffs is he the Jack Adams winner? I'm thinking yes.I don't mind Boughner.
Always with the typo critique...Seems like it was the opposite of that.
That forward group was thin to say the least.Without a doubt. I expected them to lose by 5 goals. It was pretty shocking they won.
I can't overstate how impressed I've been with Alexander True. It seems like 2-3 times a game he is the reason the shift is spent in the offensive zone instead of the other two.
Biggest question is going to continue to be how does his skating hold up longer term against the elites of the league. Hope it works out as we’re super thin down the middle and could use an answer or two in that group.He was the same way with the Cuda. He is the perfect bottom 6 center. True breaks up plays, uses his body, and gets the puck moving in the right direction. I've been a huge fan of his game and I hope he sticks. Would love to see him on the PP. He's a solid net front presence there.
