The Sharks entered Saturday with a 0-1-2 record on this seven-game road trip, with all three losses by one goal. Their last win before Saturday came on Jan. 27 at home against the Pittsburgh Penguins. San Jose is 0-4-3 since, with five losses by one goal.
Pittsburgh is a long way from California but when San Jose native Kavir Bains-Marquez was offered a the opportunity to transfer to Pitt, he jumped at the chance.
