""I just didn't think we had our juice. We didn't have much energy. Didn't compete hard enough," Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky said."
""I even thought going into the third period, even though we were down two goals ... we felt pretty good about finding our game," Warsofsky said. "We just never were connected and couldn't really get anything going, obviously, offensively. It was kind of men versus boys tonight.""
The San Jose Sharks lost 5-1 to the Carolina Hurricanes at SAP Center, exhibiting a worrying lack of energy and compete in the third game of the season. Players and coaches said the team did not work hard enough and failed to match one of the NHL's better teams. The Sharks were outshot 25-1 during the final 29:18 and did not register a shot on goal in the third period. Adam Gaudette's shot with 1:29 left in the second was the last attempt. The game marked the fourth time in franchise history the team was held without a shot in a period. Owner Hasso Plattner and the organization view another season near the bottom as a failure, and the team aims to take a step forward after two consecutive last-place finishes.
