There was some effort, but not enough to win their first game home after a long road trip. Marleau’s late goal (after missing earlier penalty shot) gave the Sharks a point.

Sharks hit the practice rink on Friday and hope to have a winning effort against the Coyotes on Saturday.

Very confusing WRT starter as Stalock was announced, but Niemi was in net for the game. After the game, McLellan indicated there was a reason that Niemi started, “Al couldn’t go,” but no further elaboration.

(I was a bit distracted for the first two periods with a contractor and crew working around me.  Perhaps that was for the best as all the offense in the first 40 was two posts.)

The Sharks were at least not shut out.  But their offense was not powerful enough to stop playing defense.

Florida is not the “automatic” two-points for opponents it once was.  Roberto Luongo is now patrolling the net for the jungle cats and there’s a new swagger and pride in Sunrise.
