"On their heels from the start, the Sharks allowed two goals in the first period and three more early in the second including two just nine seconds apart in a 6-0 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Wednesday night at Ball Arena. Sharks starting goalie Yaroslav Askarov has been one of the NHL's best goalies this month, but didn't have much support as he allowed four goals on 19 shots, with the fourth coming by Avalanche defenseman Josh Manson at even strength at the 4:51 mark of the second period."
"Alex Nedeljkovic then replaced Askarov, but the Avalanche scored on their next shot, as a breakdown by the Sharks allowed Joel Kiviranta to get behind the defense, take a pass from Ivan Ivan and beat Nedeljkovic for a 5-0 Colorado lead. Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky called a timeout after the fifth goal and stopped the bleeding until Artturi Lehkonen scored at the 16:15 mark of the third period. The Sharks went 0-for-4 on the power play and were unable to beat Avalanche goalie Mackenzie Blackwood despite 26 shots on net as they were shut out for the third time this season."
San Jose fell 6-0 to Colorado after allowing two first-period goals and three early second-period goals, including two only nine seconds apart.

Ryan Warsofsky called a timeout following the fifth goal before Artturi Lehkonen scored in the third. The Sharks managed 26 shots, went 0-for-4 on the power play, were shut out for the third time this season, and dropped to 8-4-1 in November while Colorado extended its win streak to nine games.
