The big takeaway is clear. San Jose needs to boost its defense to become a real Stanley Cup contender. Despite the blowout, the Sharks sit at a surprising 23 wins, 19 losses, and three overtime losses this season. Their current blue liners have stepped up big time to help fuel this unexpected start. No disrespect to those defensemen. They've done solid work. But to match teams like Vegas, who just dominated them, San Jose will need both internal improvements and maybe some outside help on the blue line in. The year is ahead. This isn't just a knee-jerk reaction to one bad night. A league source, not affiliated with either team, texted during the game highlighting the defensive issues on display. Looking ahead, the Sharks have time to address this before the playoffs.
