‘We Just Lost A Bit Of Momentum,’ Said San Jose Sharks’ Joe Pavelski

“We’re not as tight defensively as we have been. We’ve also got some guys out of the lineup who weren’t out earlier in the year too, I think we did a good job on [Connor] McDavid tonight (he was held without a point). I thought the difference in the game was the depth. They got some more depth scoring than we did.”

When Sharks’ team captain was asked to release a statement about the Sharks vs. Edmonton game, Joe Pavelski said:

“We just lost a bit of momentum at times. I think it was a game that always felt like it was right there, but we were just a step slow or execution was off just a little bit — too many odd-man rushes. It was a game that felt like it was there for us.”
