Host JD Young previews critical matchups, projected lineups featuring the return of John Klingberg, and the must-win mentality fueling San Jose. Key takeaways include the Sharks’ need for clean defensive exits, the importance of Alex Nedeljkovic’s goaltending, and the impact every result has on their playoff chances.

With the oilers losing a big game last night in overtime hopefully it will give the sharks a little edge.
The sharks need to be relentless with their work ethic! Nobody takes a shift off! No letting off the gas!
Klankberg is back. We're cooked.
we’ve gotta stop starting late. last few games we wait till the 2nd period to slam on the gas we need to come out of the gate flying
Go Sharks 🦈 Gooooooooooo👍
Not in a mathematical sense but tonight is a must win 🏆
I just do not see a path forward to the playoffs. With 6 games left, the only team they can realistically catch are the preds, who have been had the 2nd best points per game over the past few months. They have been playing unbelievable. They destroyed the sharks and kicked the shit out of the ducks last night.
Yall are gonna have to forgive me, but I’m pulling for a draft pick. If they can get the final pieces for their defense, that greatly increases the likelihood that we see a dynasty in a few years.
That is what I’m waiting for. Just a little more patience and it will all pay off.
Hey JD, you were a huge inspiration for us to start a podcast and we would love your support and any advice you have. Golden State take podcast thank you and go sharks
Oh Klingo, please prove us wrong, we want to be wrong
