The last game in the NHL schedule for next Monday, January 27th corresponds to the clash between San Jose Sharks and Pittsburgh Penguins, teams that are having an awful performance during the current season. Even when this game won’t be a great main event, it promises to offer a very fast dynamic with many opportunities for both to score
On the one hand, San Jose Sharks are the worst team in the league, a spot that was anticipated since the beginning of the season as they didn’t get any strong reinforcements, and their defensive line level has been terrible during the whole season. In this matter, they clearly will be the first team of the season to concede 200 goals this season, being very questionable if this project will be sustainable enough for the next decade.
On the other hand, Pittsburgh Penguins is also one of the worse teams in the league, currently remarking as the worst defensive in the Eastern Conference with 189 conceded goals, numbers that clearly explain why they were only able to win 1 out of their last 4 games in a row. Within that terrible streak it must be noted that not being able to defeat Seattle Kraken nor Anaheim Ducks is an unequivocal sign of their fragility.
