It's not too often that you see a team up 5-1 halfway through the game and they don't even get a point.  In fact, they lost by multiple goals.  The Sharks were taking it to the Predators on Tuesday before the firepower we expected from Smashville going into the season showed up, making a 7-5 comeback.  They were led by one of their big free agent signings, Jonathan Marchessault, who had a goal and three assists with four shots.  It was a brutal start to the season for Marchessault (like everyone on the Preds), but Marchessault is in the midst of a nine game point streak right now.  The shot is fantastic, so he's played his way back onto the fringe with a lean towards holding, especially on this hot streak.  Let's take a look at what else happened over the last two nights:
If you want proof that no NHL coach has job security, look at what's happened over the last week.  Boston is off to a slow start but after setting records two seasons ago and winning a playoff series six months ago, nobody saw him getting fired before American Thanksgiving.  However, the news broke early on Tuesday that Boston was moving on with Joe Sacco as the interim coach.  Then, on Sunday, St. Louis made a quick move to hire Montgomery.  You have to feel bad for Drew Bannister, who only coached 76 games with the Blues and was a shocking 39-31-6 despite a weak roster, even though he was only 9-12-1 this season.
