"Every game is important this time of year, Warsofsky said before Monday's game. We know where we are in the standings. Many people didn't expect us to be where we are in this spot, and this is an opportunity for us. This is a great opportunity to to get back on it tonight against a good team, and get two points on the road and feel good about ourselves going to Colorado."
"The Sharks started slowly then allowed four goals is a wide open second period in what became a potentially costly 6-3 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday at the United Center. The Sharks allowed a first period power play goal to Connor Bedard then gave up three goals in a span of 8:22 before coach Ryan Warsofsky pulled starting goalie Yaroslav Askarov in favor of Alex Nedeljkovic."
"Askarov's four goals allowed came on 10 shots as he now has just one win in his last six starts. Still, the Blackhawks goals Monday were more the result of Sharks defensive breakdowns than clear goalie miscues. The Sharks also took four minor penalties in the game's first 24 minutes and also went 0-for-4 on the power play. Forwards Ryan Donato and Ilya Mikheyev both had four points for the Blackhawks, who snapped a five-game losing streak."

The Sharks took four minor penalties in the first 24 minutes, went 0-for-4 on the power play, and fell to 1-2-1 on a five-game road trip. Askarov has one win in his last six starts.
