The San Jose Sharks finish up the short two/three game road trip (three if you count that it straddled the Christmas break) with a visit to the Anaheim Ducks. The Sharks are coming off a 6-3 win over the Vancouver Canucks, while the Ducks are coming off a 6-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday. Both teams are in a playoff spot as of this morning. The Ducks are second in the Pacific Division with a 21-15-2 record, while the Sharks are 18-17-3 and hold the second wild card spot.
The Ducks seem to have some similar issues to the Sharks at this point in the season, and that’s getting consistent scoring from throughout the lineup.
