Askarov plays very aggressively but he has the speed and flexibility to get across when he needs to, that's some impressive goaltending!

It’s crazy to see how much this team has developed since last year!! I lost my parlay but I can’t even be mad.. Tampa is a top team and the sharks put on a show tonight

[Soundtracks]

Yeah you guys should stick with Askorov

[SwaminarayanBhagwanForever]

Askarov is going to be a problem for Pacific teams

[bludika]

i think Askarov has the potential to be the next #1 goalie for the sharks within couple years, he's still young but his game looks promising

Two very good Russian goalies in this one.

[dev...]

1st star Aakarov... 2nd star Toffoli... 3rd star a broken stick on the ice...

Nice to see the sharks end the extended losing streak. Vlasic actually played well here in his season debut. He produced a decent bit of offense and managed to get on the scoresheet. Ferraro getting a goal is a pleasant surprise. Toffoli had a nice goal. Askarov was fantastic tonight. He's continuing to show how good he truly is, even with this defense. His aggressive playing of the puck worries me a little and I wonder if he should be coached out of it. Onto the next

[TradingFeline]

The Sharks are back!!!

I would not have bet that they would snap their 8-game losing streak against Tampa Bay. This team continues to surprise me! Incredible performance by Askarov.

Man credit to Askarov. Hell of a goaltender .

[JohnDoe-twgx]

Thanks to Nashville for sending another good player to strengthen another team :-)

[barbituratik]

sad it wasn't a shutout for Askarov, but anyway it was a phenomenal play

[pres.jimryan]

Despite getting a new truck for the holidays, the best gift was getting a sharks jersey and a hat. Happy New Year, and go 🦈🦈🦈

[JohnShields-xxyk]

Sharks holding the bolts to 1 goal. Incredible goaltending on both sides, kinda looked like a playoff game.

[Chuck-ih]

Wow, Askarov is the Real Deal! Is it too late for him to make a run at the Calder with Celebrini? Both these guys are the best young talent we’ve seen on the Sharks in at least 15 years.

[DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants]

Now imagine the game is the same only Georgiev is playing instead of Askarov.

[Evan]

What happens when the Sharks get competent goaltending.

[samrod]

Sharks better not send Askarov down. Fourgiev doesn’t belong anywhere near a rink.

Sharks and Ducks are showing signs. Good young teams. Left coast hockey is back!
