On the San Jose Sharks podcast Fernando Abarca:

#1 New York Islanders Jean-Gabriel Pageau scored a goal and had two assists and IIya Sorokin the Isles goaltender saved 38 shots as the Islanders defeated the Sharks on Saturday night.

#2 The Islanders Anders Lee, Anthony Duclair and Adam Boqvist each scored a goal. The win gives New York their fourth out of the last five games.

#3 The struggles continue for the Sharks who have lost ten of their last 12 games. The Sharks got production out of Macklin Celebrini who had two assists and goaltender Alexander Georgiev stopped 24 shots against New York.

#4 The Sharks try and move onto their next game against the Nashville Predators who have struggled on the road with a 7-20-4 record. The Predators are 24-32-4 overall. In spite of their road struggles the Predators are currently on a three game win streak.

#5 Sharks William Eklund has 14 goals with 24 assists and Tyler Toffoli has five goals and four assists in his last ten games. These two can play a role in helping the Sharks find some more offense and helping them get back in the win column.
