Tank for Bedard
Time is running out and if the Sharks aren’t careful, they’ll play themselves out of the 29th spot in the league and jump to 28th, or worse.

The Anaheim Ducks recent nine game losing streak has vaulted the team to the coveted 32nd spot, tying the team with the Columbus Blue Jackets and Chicago Blackhawks with 56 points apiece.
San Jose is four points up on the pack and six points behind the Montreal Canadiens. Trouble is, the Canadiens and the Arizona Coyotes are also running losing streaks. San Jose has secured seven out of eight possible points in its last four games. Not exactly a recipe for that tank season we were looking for.
Important games to watch today include:
- Blue Jackets @ New Jersey Devils
- Washington Capitals @ Canadiens
- Blackhawks @ Vancouver Canucks
- Coyotes @ Seattle Kraken
San Jose Sharks
Call this take two, if you will.
This is game two in the two game series with the Colorado Avalanche. Erik Karlsson now has 96 points, while Nathan MacKinnon has already achieved the century mark.
Karlsson registered his 74th assist of the season on Tuesday night, passing Roman Josi (2021-22) for the most assists in the season by a defenseman since Sergei Zubov did it in 1993-94.
Karlsson has five more games left in the season to score four or more points.
