San Jose Sharks Suffer Another Epic Collapse To The Chicago Blackhawks, Losing 5-4 In Overtime

Less than a week after the San Jose Sharks blew a game to the Chicago Blackhawks, they did it again. This time, they surrendered a four-goal lead to the Hawks and eventually lost 5-4 in overtime. Start with where this leaves the Sharks in their pursuit of the number one pick in the NHL Draft with 12 games to play. Then, some of the positives in the game include Fabian Zetterlund notching his 20th goal of the season, Thomas Bordeleau's continued ascension and Devin Cooley giving a reason why he should stick around. Next, analyze how the Sharks gave up a four-goal lead thanks in part to the offense going to sleep in the second period and their inability to create sustained pressure, and where William Eklund should slot in. Finally, Sharks prospects Will Smith, Quentin Musty, and Luca Cagnoni had excellent weekends, proving that the future is indeed bright for the Sharks.
