If there is one team that has been looking forward to the All Star break more than the San Jose Sharks it’s the Washington Capitals. They’re 3 – 5 – 2 in there last 10 games and losers of 4 straight games. They’ve given up 17 goals in their previous 3 contests with 8 of them coming on Sunday afternoon against Chicago.
Both of these teams would like to build some momentum heading into the extended break, but remaining healthy should be top priority. The San Jose Sharks will more than likely play again without both Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Erik Karlsson.
