SAN JOSE, Calif. Vita Vea Buccaneers Jersey . -- The pain of another playoff collapse was still fresh less than two days later as the San Jose Sharks packed up for another early summer. General manager Doug Wilson expressed his still boiling anger in a team meeting Friday and vowed that the status quo is not an option after the Sharks became the fourth NHL team to lose a best-of-seven series after winning the first three games. But Wilson said it will be his recommendation that the change not include coach Todd McLellan. Wilson said he has not yet talked to owner Hasso Plattner and acknowledged that he also is under evaluation. Wilson said the final decision on what the Sharks will do going forward will likely be made in the next two weeks. "This is not a nick or a scratch," Wilson said. "This is an open wound. When the emotions are raw, the emotions should run deep and resonate and live for a long time. We have already started the process of what decisions were going to make." The Sharks won the first three games of the series by a margin of 17-8. But they managed only two goals in the final three games in the latest playoff disappointment for a franchise that has the second-most points in the regular season the past 10 seasons but is still looking for its first Stanley Cup appearance. McLellan took the blame for the collapse after the Game 7 loss and said he is even more frustrated two days later with his teams performance in their second straight playoff loss to the Kings. "Something has to change," McLellan said. "Its two years in a row losing to that team, and its a very good team, too. Let me make that very clear. But its two years in a row losing to them. And, in fact, when we thought we had improved our group -- which I believe we did -- we got a weaker performance than we go the year prior." McLellan has the support of his players as well, who universally praised the job hes done the past six years even if it hasnt translated into the ultimate post-season success. "I dont think the coaching is the problem. Ive had some bad coaches in the past," defenceman Dan Boyle said. "Its on the players. Were the ones that go out there and need to get it done. We didnt." The Sharks entered the playoffs almost completely healthy and looked like they were finally ready to make a run to the first Stanley Cup in franchise history the way they shredded the leagues top defensive team the first three games. But the offence dried up late in the series with the only two goals in the final three games coming from fill-in defenceman Matt Irwin and third-line forward James Sheppard. "Theres no sugarcoating it. When youre up 3-0 in a series, you step on their throat and put them away," Wilson said. "They came back and were able to play and establish their game for four games. We played it for three. Its not good enough. Thats the truth." Captain Joe Thornton, linemate Brent Burns and Logan Couture had no points in the final four games. Patrick Marleau and Joe Pavelski didnt have a goal or an assist in the last three. The power-play went 0-for-15 in the final three games, including four blown chances in the second period of Game 7 when the Sharks were either ahead or tied. "I think Ill think about that probably until next year sometime," Thornton said. "The way we played in the first three games and then what we did in the last four, its mindboggling. I think I will lose sleep probably for the next couple months." The Sharks have five unrestricted free agents: Boyle and Scott Hannan, goalie Alex Stalock and forwards Mike Brown and Bracken Kearns. San Jose also has the option of buying out up to two players this summer with forward Marty Havlat the most likely after being a healthy scratch for six of the seven games against the Kings.

Listen to the game live on TSN Radio 1040 Vancouver with coverage beginning at 2pm pt. Vancouver has been led by Henrik and Daniel Sedin, who are tied for tops on the team with 24 points. Daniel Sedin scored two power-play goals in a 4-3 win at Washington on Tuesday, helping the Canucks rebound from a 5-3 loss in Detroit on Sunday. Thats what good teams do, Daniel Sedin told Vancouvers official site. In this league, you start losing a few, all of a sudden youve lost four or five, and thats tough to get back from. I think were a group that realizes that, and were usually strong when we come off a loss. Ryan Millers steady play in net has been a significant factor in the Canucks success. He owns a 2.45 GAA - his best since 2009-10 - but has allowed seven goals in consecutive losses to Pittsburgh. Millers 3.28 GAA against the Penguins is his third-worst mark against any team. Fleury has won his last four matchups against the Canucks, with the last three coming in shootouts. The Pittsburgh Penguins regularly dispatch opponents with their high-powered offense. Lately, however, the victories have come through their goaltender. Marc-Andre Fleury looks to continue his strong play when the Penguins host the Vancouver Canucks on Thursday night in a matchup between two of the NHLs top teams. Fleury recorded his league-leading fifth shutout Tuesday in a 1-0 win over visiting New Jersey. His 2.08 goals-against average is a career best for the 11-year veteran, and his shutout total matches a career high. Its nice to have five shutouts in December, Fleury, who haas a 1. Carlton Davis Buccaneers Jersey. 23 GAA in his last four victories, told the Penguins official website. It hasnt happened too often in my career. Its nice. Fleurys play has been a welcome plus for the offensive-minded Penguins, who have finished as a top-five scoring team each of the past three seasons and rank near the top of the NHL with 3.33 goals per game. Such is the benefit of having two of the leagues leading scorers in Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby. Malkin scored Tuesday and has picked up a point in eight of the last nine games, but Crosby has been held off the scoresheet in the past two after recording seven points over the previous three. Still, with 33 points, Crosby is on pace for the sixth 100-point season of his career. I think we can get better, Crosby said. Guys are working hard, theyre focused on trying to get better. You have to evaluate yourself based on making sure you execute on all the little things within the game. Weve done a good job being honest about that and making sure we improve in certain areas. The Penguins (17-5-2) will be tasked with replacing Chris Kunitz, who will miss at least two weeks with a fractured foot. Kunitz has nine goals and 11 assists and joins Pascal Dupuis (blood clot), Beau Bennett (lower body) and Kris Letang (groin) on the injury list. Defenseman Robert Bortuzzo will also sit out Thursday after receiving a two-game suspension for a hard hit Tuesday on Devils forward Jaromir Jagr. You cant dwell on the fact that guys are out, Crosby said. You need to make sure that you rally and find a way to win games. Some guys may have to accept more of a role or elevate their game. Were all in it together. So weve got to find a way to make sure we keep playing well.
