The San Jose Sharks currently sit three points out of a playoff spot and are heading towards the fourth straight season of missing the playoffs. While three points might not seem like very much, they have also played the most games in the NHL with just five regulation wins. The team ranks 13th in the Western Conference in points, despite several players having some of their best season-starts.
While the Anaheim Ducks don’t seem anywhere close to moving out of their parent’s basement known as the Pacific Division, the Sharks have planted themselves on the stairs, waiting for the chance to pounce if the opportunity strikes.
