On the San Jose Sharks podcast with Fernando Abarca:

#1 The San Jose Sharks have promoted goaltender Yaroslav Askarov from AHL affiliate the San Jose Barracuda. Askarov has had an outstanding season with the Barracuda is 6-3 with two shutouts and a 1.92 goals against average. Fernando this has to be a big opportunity for Askarov who could get a start tonight?

#2 The San Jose Sharks took a tough loss 4-3 from the Pittsburgh Penguins. in a shootout in their last game last Saturday in Pittsburgh that concluded their four game road trip. Fernando it’s not the kind of way that Sharks head coach Ryan Warsofsky wanted it to end?

#3 The Penguins Evgeni Malkin scored the winning goal of the shootout. Sidney Crosby and Anthony Beauvillier scored goals in the shootout as well. Fernando there is no doubt your looking at some very talented shooters in a shootout like that when your facing Malkin, Crosby and Beauvillier?

#4 The Sharks Alex Wennberg made the attempt to score on Penguins goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic in the fifth round of the shootout but couldn’t convert thus the Sharks lose it by a goal and those can be part of the frustrations of the game not being able to get that vital goal when the game is on the line?

#5 Fernando another note former Shark and current Penguin Erik Karlsson got an assist and passed former Shark Doug Wilson for 16th place on the NHL career points list for defensemen. You don’t see too many defensemen who can pile up the goals like Karlsson has done in his career?

#6 The Sharks (5-10-4) who are back in San Jose to face off with the Detroit Red Wings here at SAP Center. The Red Wings are a struggling bunch at 7-9-1 and seventh place in the Atlantic Division, the Wings have lost their last two games and lost seven of their last ten games. The Sharks coming off that loss in Pittsburgh have a good chance to pick up a win tonight?
