Warsofsky Say Sharks “Extremely Frustrated” With Winless Start

You talk about coaching connection. How did you see the team’s connection tonight? That was better. It’s better step in the right direction. What areas do you feel like you can still improve? Oh man, there’s probably a little bit of a list there. Still giving up too much in our own end puck play. Um we’re just still a little a little off in some areas. Did you like that the effort to compete from the start? Just like there was a good constant effort throughout the whole game. Is that something you can kind of Yeah, it’s better. It’s better. So, we got to keep pushing it. For me, Dickson looked like this was two of their better games, especially Dickson there. What did you see from these two tonight? Yeah, I’d say there was two of their best games. Did some good things. Obviously, some things to improve on, but they looked more comfortable tonight. Sam kind of took it upon himself to join the rush there. Yeah, that’s what we been talking to him about is still has that skill set and that tool set. He’s got to use it. So, that was good to see. In the first period, it was like so wide open. I don’t know if that’s what the coaching staff liked, but What did you think? No, we don’t like it like that. And I’m assuming that damn use doesn’t like that like that as well. So, um our first was probably our worst and I think it got better as the game went on as far as uh defending. Still again giving up a little bit too much um chances wise. What can you take into the road trip now just off this game? Obviously, you know, a little better than Utah and Carol just something to build on maybe going forward. Yeah, I think there’s some again the effort and the compete was was better, so we can build off of that. There’s some things that we talked about this morning that we did better with our for check, so we can build off that and there’s some areas we got to improve on. Um, you know, we’re we’re a new team as far as personnel. We we got to keep building our chemistry with our team. After the first period, he held him to like maybe like eight or nine shots. The key to that just like you mentioned, just for just getting from at them from the top there. Yeah, for sure. I thought our fore was better. That helps a lot. What do you think of Wilson’s play? Looked like he had some chances, but still Yeah, he’s competing. He had some chances. Still got to get him to another level. Mac after a game like tonight. He wants it so bad, but you know, a little missed you maybe in a third period. Yeah, I know. I mean, I think all of our guys want it. I mean, we’re frustrated. Trust me, our players are extremely frustrated as is the staff. Um, you know, I haven’t talked to Mac yet. I think he kind of knows. Um, but we got to we going to quit. We’re five games into this thing. Um, what’s happened has happened. We got to we got to work. I I got to get this team to improve and individuals to improve. It’s on me. Was it encouraging tonight? Uh, at least the response to kind of adversity previous nights, you know, give up a goal and then the play slacks off. But tonight after Crosby scores, you guys played better. Yeah, again did a lot of good things tonight. Competed. Uh, we didn’t have the give in our game that we’ve seen. And um you know again some things we got to get better at getting in front of the goalender playing on the inside shooting some more pucks when we have the opportunity defensively got to do a little bit better where um it’s a little loose at times um but the compete and the and the effort was was better. Still got to keep raising that standard. Does this feel overall though like a game that if you repeat this effort that the wins will come the results? Yeah, I think so. I I think we’ll just keep working at it and it’s going to come. Um we’re going to keep jelling as a unit. I think it’ll be good for us to go on the road. What do you thought of on Nadalovic tonight? No, it was good. Made some good saves. Made some saves early that we needed him to especially in the first was a little open. Um I mean the Crosby goal was tough. He made one of the great tip some. It’s funny we talked exactly about that clip of the pre-cout happened in the other night in LA and Anaheim. They had they their forwards are probably the best in the league and their D are the best in the league at finding sticks in front of the net. You had Adam that on the top line and what do you thought? Yeah, I thought it was all right. Thought it was good. We’ll watch the film and again we got to start building our lines and our chemistry. It’s where we’re a little off. Unfortunately been a part of these slow starts here these last three four years. How do you this group though I mean do you think it has sort of the resolve to sort of get back in maybe a little bit more so than than previous years? Yeah, I think so. Um, you know, again, a lot of new players. We got to just just keep working and keep teaching from the coaches. Um, we got to keep preparing them. Um, but yeah, trust me, it sucks. Keep telling myself there’s got to be a reason why this keeps happening in a sense. Um, you know, I give up one of my child children for a win. So, it’s frustrated. I’m sorry for swearing. I just We’re very very frustrated. We’re going to keep working at it. And do you still feel they need to do a little better job in front of the net to get to the rebound, maybe have more secondary? Yeah. Yeah, we got to get more of the inside for sure. You have an update on uh Clingberg, Lo and Mulan. Are they all traveling? Clingberg will travel. Um uh who’s the other one? Lily will travel and Maka looks like he’s going to hold back and will stay here and Lily was Lily’s gonna come. Okay. And are they both uh could they be available for the next game? Uh yeah, I’d say it’s uh Lily probably not. Um it’s questionable in uh Clint. So you had Tai and Gra from the fourth line tonight and what them think good energy that again I thought that line was good. They brought some good energy. Thanks. Thank you. Thanks coach.

  1. He needs to GO. Warsofsky just keeps on doing this that don't make any sense at all. That third line was by far the best and Smith was dropping dimes all game yet they barely had any ice time. And I'm tired of seeing Leddy and Goodrow every game. "Earn it" was a joke and he knows it.

  2. To help hear yours and other reporters questions, try pointing your mic to whomever is speaking. The quality of your presentation will improve greatly.

  3. After watching them play against the Hurricanes, if I were Warsofsky, I’d copy coach Brindamore. He uses a simple straight ahead system that would likely be easier for a young and newly formed roster to follow. Keep it simple and solidify your basic defensive and puck-control principles. Only then will the young guns be ready and confident to unleash their offensive powers.

  4. These line changes every game make no sense. How are you supposed to build consistency? He needs to go. He obviously doesn't know what to do with the young players.

  5. I get everyone says he has no NHL experience but that is literally why ilhe is this teams coach. They want him to grow as the team grows. Every coach needs a first time being a coach. Sometimes you're an assistant on a cup winning team for 5 years, and you get your shot with generational talent. Sometimes you get a start on the worst team in the league with a bunch of 19 year olds and washed out bums.
    They just need to put the young guys in, and skinner and tafoli, and send these old atrocious d-men to the beach. At least young guys will get experience.

  6. We scored 9 goals in the first two games, then Warso scrambled the forward group and now we’ve scored 7 goals in three games. I don’t know why he thinks the initial forward groups were the issue when the defense was so obviously poor.
    Klingberg was fine as long as he wasn’t expected to defend. Leddy and Orlov are straight up bad. Dickinson, Muk, and Iorio should be in full time.
    And finally, someone needs to have a come to Jesus with the goalies about playing the puck. Theyre not as good as they think they are at playing it. They gotta fuckin stop.
