San Jose Sharks have scored eight goals in five games without Macklin Celebrini
San Jose Sharks goaltender Vitek Vanecek plays against the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday, Oct. 20, 2024, in San Jose, Calif. Colorado defeated the Sharks 4-1. SAN JOSE – There are no simple answers to fix all that is wrong with the San Jose Sharks’ offense.“Keep doing what we’re doing and being even more inside,” Eklund said after the Sharks’ 4-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday at SAP Center.
“Our 5-on-3 needs to improve. It’s twice now that we’ve had opportunities that we need to capitalize,” Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky said. “We need to get some Grade A chances, first and foremost, and then I think they’ll start going in. For the season, the Sharks have averaged two goals per game. Without Celebrini in the last five games, that average dips to 1.6.
Ross Colton scored an even-strength goal at the 16:37 mark of the first period as he finished a pretty pass from Mikko Rantanen for a 2-0 Colorado lead. But that line, with Rantanen and reigning Hart Trophy winner Nathan MacKinnon, was pretty much played to a draw by the Sharks, as they gave up almost as many scoring chances during 5-on-5 play as they allowed at even strength.
“That’s a buddy of mine that kind of set that up with a bunch of the young kids that play on a team out by San Francisco, so it’s cool that they came to support,” Ferraro said. “I wouldn’t be here without people like that, so I’m grateful for them.”Sturm says last two Sharks stinkers ‘felt a lot like last year’
