Yup. Soooo it's:

Boughner, Nabokov, Roy Sommer (AHL promotion), and Mike Ricci.

Article on Why DeBoer's system is sucking this year:

DeBoer was a defense-first coach whose defense wasn't executing. Blame injuries or absent/offensive-minded defensemen all you want, but the structure of the team's defense has been shambolic all season.

And worse yet, DeBoer wasn't helping the Sharks realize their offensive potential.

DeBoer believed in puck possession — that the best defense is not letting the other team have it. He wanted the Sharks to play a controlled, physical game in a league that is increasingly about speed and skill.

That led to conflicted feelings and conflicted play from two of this era's best offensive defensemen — Erik Karlsson and Brent Burns — who have not been anything close to forces this year (though Karlsson has been better as of late).

It led to offensive play that was compressed and oftentimes wrought — overly reliant on power-play opportunities to score. (The Sharks have converted on one of their last 30 power plays)

The truth is that you can't play that style of hockey when you're giving up 10 goals for every three games you play.

And when there's no system that can even shave two, three, four goals off that weekly total, all you can do is try to fight fire with fire.

As my post above indicates, DeBoer's system was just gasoline on the fire. We're giving up goals at a MONSTROUS rate, but our only hope to do any better was to employ a system where we at least have a chance by getting more chances to score I guess.

It's going to hurt so bad if the Sharks miss the playoffs. I'm so used to them just automatically being there every year. This is one year where I just don't think we've got the pieces anymore.

this team has the talent to make the playoffs, but when your goal tending is trash as well as the coaching s**t like this happens. Such a disappointing season, Ive stated so many times deboer shouldve got let go when Barry Trotz or Joel Quennevile were available
