SAN JOSE – Getting some level manufacturing from their protection corps will little doubt profit the San Jose Sharks as they attempt to end what’s left of this season on a optimistic notice.

That and a few strong goaltending gave the Sharks an opportunity to beat the playoff-bound Edmonton Oilers on Thursday night time.

Mario Ferraro had two assists and Jack Thompson scored his fourth aim of the season, however a second-period aim by Jeff Skinner was the distinction because the Oilers handed the Sharks a 3-2 loss earlier than an introduced crowd of 14,152 at SAP Middle.

On the play, a faceoff within the Sharks’ zone bought again to Oilers defenseman Evan Bouchard, whose unblocked shot towards the online was redirected by Skinner’s skate previous San Jose goalie Georgi Romanov on the 14:57 mark of the second interval.

“We lose coverage on the back side with our defenseman not boxing out,” Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky mentioned. “Then a young player in Cam (Lund) just doesn’t get out there quick enough and extend his stick. It’s a detail that you probably get away with in college, but not at this level. So it’s something he’ll learn from.”

Romanov completed with 35 saves, and Tyler Toffoli scored his twenty eighth aim of the season, however the Sharks (20-45-10), regardless of a greater general efficiency than current lopsided outcomes towards the New York Rangers and Los Angeles Kings, misplaced their fourth straight recreation.

“Pretty good effort. We would like to get one there in the third. We had a lot of chances,” Ferraro mentioned. “For the most part, we were pretty on top of them. Just couldn’t find a way to get that extra one to tie it up late.”

Connor Brown and Victor Arvidsson additionally scored for the Oilers, who performed the second half of the sport with out the NHL’s main scorer, Leon Draisaitl. The Oilers middle, who has 52 objectives this season, left the sport within the second interval with a lower-body damage.

Within the 11 video games since they traded defenseman Jake Walman, the Sharks have solely managed three objectives and 12 assists from their defensemen. However towards the Oilers, the Sharks’ blue line appeared to activate a bit of extra to create some odd-man alternatives.

That was the case on Toffoli’s aim on the 8:48 mark of the second interval. Ferraro joined the push and took a go from Macklin Celebrini on a 3-on-2 and located Toffoli, who tied the sport 2-2.

“Every team wants to get some production off the back side,” Warsofsky mentioned. “It’s important that we get guys up in the rush a little bit more, so it’s not just a three-man rush. If you look at rush teams that have a lot of offenses, it’s coming from the back with a fourth wave, and that’s something that we’ve got to continue to work on.”

Thompson was recalled from the Barracuda on Monday after defenseman Luca Cagnoni and ahead Patrick Giles have been returned to the AHL. The Sharks additionally misplaced defenseman Vincent Desharnais to an upper-body damage late final week.

Thompson, who spent most of March within the AHL and had 5 factors in his final 4 video games with the Barracuda, tried to heed that recommendation.

“I’m definitely trying to learn that, and trying to continue to grow that side when I’m up here, is to make plays and not feel nervous to make a mistake,” Thompson mentioned. “I’m trying to learn still, but I think (Thursday was) a step in the right direction.”
