Last night the San Jose Sharks hosted the Winnipeg Jets in what turned out to be a 3-0 shutout win for the Sharks.
Two teams that are at opposite ends of the standings, hoping to accomplish different things this season, the game between them did not turn out the way it should have.
The Winnipeg Jets are currently holding onto the second wild card position in the Western Conference, only 2 points ahead of the Calgary Flames and 3 points ahead of the Nashville Predators, who have 2 games in hand. The Jets cannot afford to be losing these must win games with the playoffs so close.
After last nights loss, the Winnipeg Jets head coach Rick Bowness was not happy with the teams performance and let it be known to the media:
Well, I'd say we created enough scoring chances. The offence gave us a chance to win the game, we just didn't score. Then, the inconsistencies with some of our players is hurting us,» Jets head coach Rick Bowness said after the game, «Some of these guys think they're giving us everything in their tank, they're dreaming. We have a lot of guys in there giving us everything they can. We just need a few more guys to jump on board. It's not over. We're still in eighth spot. We're going to find out what we're made of over the next little while.
Bowness was then asked how he reaches the players who are not playing to the best of their ability, in which he said:
How do you reach them? There comes a point when your personal pride has to take over. If someone has to go in there and point that out to them, then there is a big problem right there. As I said, we're going to find out what we're made of and we're going to find out what everyone in that room is made of over the next little while.
