After yesterday's 4-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks, the San Jose Sharks face elimination tomorrow night at Rogers Arena in Vancouver. Clearly, special teams have been a recurring theme in the series. With plenty of opportunities for the Sharks early yesterday on the power play, they failed to capitalize. And with the best power play in the regular season, a 5-on-3 advantage is plenty for the Canucks to feed off of. And they did so in the second period with three goals in a very short stretch.
Sharks' captain Joe Thornton is expected to play in game 5. Thornton suffered an injury in the third period and didn't play for the remainder of yesterday's contest.
