On the SJ Sharks podcast with Len Shapiro:

#1 Len after winning four straight games the San Jose Sharks 4-3-0) have now lost three straight games and their last loss 4-0 to the Montreal Canadiens (2-6-0) could be cause for concern but first what are the Sharks doing differently than their first four straight wins?

#2 The Canadiens had struggled in their own right dropping six of their first seven games and Habs goaltender Jake Allen had struggled through those games what was the difference for him in net against the Sharks 45 shots.

#3 Goals for the Canadiens Mike Hoffman scored in the first period at 12:09, two goals for the Habs in the second period Alexander Ramonov at 8:53, Brendon Gallagher at 12:54, and in the third period Josh Anderson at 17:52.

#4 Hoffman has now scored a goal in three straight games so he was on a roll and established the shot midway into the first period to help the Canadiens draw first blood.

#5 Len, talk about Adin Hill the Sharks goaltender between the pipes a tough evening facing 31 shots and allowing three goals was this a game where he just didn’t get protection up front or he just got beat by the shot?

#6 Next up for the Sharks the Winnipeg Jets (4-2-1) this Sat night Oct 30th in San Jose. The last time the Sharks faced them was Sat Oct 16th at SAP Center as the Sharks won it 4-3. The Jets are on their own roll they have won four straight games and are getting great offense from Kyle Conner 13 points and six goals, in their last game the Jets got help in goal from Eric Comrie who stopped 30 out of 32 in a 3-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings.
