As everyone knows by now, the San Jose Sharks were dismal in a wide variety of areas throughout the 2014-15 season. However, new head coach Peter DeBoer has come in and re-focused this Sharks team on playing a more all-around game, and to this point, the Sharks are thriving in most facets of the game.
When DeBoer came in this offseason, he wanted San Jose to be much better defensively and much better at 5-on-5. Last year, the Sharks ranked 24th in goals against per game at 2.76 and 25th in penalty kill percentage at 78.
