After loss, San Jose Sharks will finish as NHL’s last place team
Quick Glance: San Jose Sharks Positioned Last in NHL at Season End
  • The San Jose Sharks completed their final home game of the season on Saturday, resulting as expected based on the past two seasons.

  • Two goals by Kirill Kaprizov in just 47 seconds late in the second period transformed a tight game into another home defeat. The Minnesota Wild triumphed 6-2 before a full crowd of 17,435 on Fan Appreciation Night at SAP Center.

  • A silver lining is that the Sharks are now confirmed in 32nd and final place in the NHL standings, holding a 25.5% chance of winning the NHL draft lottery next month.

  • Goalie Mackenzie Blackwood made 32 saves and faced minimal support from the skaters in front. With 212 goals conceded during 5-on-5 play, the Sharks currently rank at the bottom of the NHL.
