The Sharks get a mulligan for their Wednesday loss at Denver, as the Avs never lose. Back at the SAP Center this afternoon, however, the Sharks might like their chances a bit more after topping the Mammoth, Kings, and Bruins on their last homestand. The defense has been generally very good for San Jose, and Alex Nedeljkovic (likely in the nets this afternoon) has been solid in November, with a 2.39 GAA and .920 saves this month. As for Adam Foote's Canucks, their defense has been leaking, and today will reportedly give a look in goal to little-used Jiri Patera, who was shelled for seven goals by the Panthers in his only start on November 17.
