Ontheair By Josh Dubow The Associated Press SAN JOSE Instead of an- swering the annual ques- tions about what it would take for San Jose finally to break through in the NHL playoffs, the Sharks are spending the start of this postseason facing even big- ger questions. While 16 teams begin preparations for the play- offs, the Sharks have al- ready begun the offseason after missing the postsea- son for the first time since 2003. They face plenty of uncertainty about the fu- ture of coach Todd McLel- lan and the direction of the franchise. San Jose had made 10 straight playoff berths for the third-longest streak in the four major North American team sports be- fore taking a major step backward this season when the Sharks finished 12th in the 14-team West- ern Conference. San Jose's point total fell from 111 to 89 in just one season, placing McLellan's job in jeopardy. The Sharks have the third-most wins in the NHL since McLellan arrived before the 2008-09 season, but that has not led to postseason success. San Jose won the Pres- idents' Trophy as the top regular-season team in 2009 only to fall in the first round to Anaheim. They then made back-to-back trips to the conference fi- nals the next two seasons, but have won one playoff series in McLellan's past four seasons. "There's going to be re- view time," McLellan said after the season ended. "Our management group, our ownership group is going to review every as- pect of our organization like they do most years and our coaching staff will come under that re- view. But I have to do my own personal review too." McLellan said he plans to sit down with his family Tuesday to discuss his fu- ture and the team will hold season-ending meetings the following day. "I'll look at the impact I've had and can have mov- ing forward and we'll go from there," McLellan said. McLellan has strong support among the players, many of whom have devel- oped into NHL stars under his stewardship in San Jose. "Todd is an incredible coach," center Logan Cou- ture said. "He has my re- spect and I respect the whole coaching staff a mas- sive amount. I've learned a lot from every single one of those guys. I wouldn't be the player I am right now without them. I hope he's back and the whole coach- ing staff is back, but it's not my call." Couture and McLellan spoke following a third straight season-ending loss to the Los Angeles Kings. The circumstances couldn't have been more different following Saturday's game than they were the previous two seasons. In 2013, the Sharks lost a tense, seven-game, second- round series to the Kings with the home team win- ning every game. It only got more painful last sea- son when San Jose became just the fourth NHL team to lose a best-of-seven se- ries after winning the first three games. That sent the Sharks into of offseason of soul-search- ing in which the leadership and culture of the team was put in question. Gen- eral manager Doug Wilson talked about the need to take a step backward with a youth movement before be- ing able to reach the ulti- mate goal of the franchise's first Stanley Cup champion- ship. Those comments rankled some of the players with star Joe Thornton getting stripped of his captaincy and then disagreeing at the start of training camp with Wilson's assessment that the Sharks were a "to- morrow team." That tension only grew as the season went on and boiled over when Wilson told season-ticket holders in March that Thornton had a tendency to lash out at peo- ple in stressful situations and Thornton responding that his GM should "shut his mouth" and "stop lying." The two publicly made up shortly after that. But the team never truly re- bounded from last sea- son's playoff collapse and now must figure out what needs to be done to turn things around. SHARKS Sa n Jo se f ac in g co ac hi ng un ce rt ai nt y fo r off se as on of the dwindling core that has been part of all three World Series championship teams. "It's too early to tell. I mean, look at the first two months last year. It looked like we'd win 100 games." They won 88, which was just enough to squeak into October. With their lineup lacking power and missing key personnel, and their ag- ing rotation already rum- maging for quality starts, what is their strength this time around? How will they build to 85 wins and beyond? "That's the appealing part of baseball," Posey said. "You know there will be ups and downs, and you've still got to be tough through the long haul." The Giants did not have a banner day in the clutch. Gregor Blanco tapped back to the mound to strand the bases loaded in the first inning. Angel Pa- gan grounded out to leave them loaded in the second inning. Brandon Craw- ford did the same to leave two runners on base in the third. The Giants stranded at least one runner in each of Eddie Butler's six innings. The Rockies' rookie right- hander allowed five hits in 51⁄3 innings, walked six and struck out just one bat- ter yet emerged without a mark on his ERA. The Giants must oper- ate for at least two more weeks without right fielder Hunter Pence, who hasn't begun swinging a bat yet. They could have third base- man Casey McGehee back in the lineup within a day or two as he recovers from a bone bruise in his left knee. At some point, though, they have to get better at moving runners. Leadoff man Nori Aoki reached base in each of his first three plate appearances but never advanced as far as third base. He has reached 18 times via hit or walk this season and scored just four runs. "For him to only have that many runs scored, I need to do a better job," No. 2 hitter Joe Panik said. "I need to bunt, hit a hole, get him from first to third, and I'm not doing it right now." The Giants were 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position and stranded 12. They didn't record a hit after Aoki's single in the fourth. At least they finally got their first stolen base of the season out of the way, when Aoki took second base in the second inning. The A's and Angels were the only remaining major league teams yet to swipe a base this season. Heston (1-1) gave the Gi- ants every chance to rally. With his parents in the stands to watch him pitch a big league game for the first time, the Florida na- tive showed that his strong season debut at Arizona last week was no fluke. Giants FROM PAGE 1 athan Villar, then scored on a Mark Canha double, Canha taking third on an- other Villar error. Ben Zobrist made it 2-0 with a double, and Ike Davis capped thethree-run inning with a one-out run-scoring single. Kazmir, who allowed just a leadoff single to open the game last week against Texas, had gone 33 batters without allowing a second hit. That was before the Astros Jose Altuve opened the fourth with a homer. Kazmir's control got a lit- tle shaky at that point. He walked two and got a dou- ble-play grounder before he needed to be checked after his first pitch to Evan Gattis. The lefty threw a cou- ple of trial pitches, said he was good to go, and made it throughsixbeforeFernando Abad took over to start the seventh. Kazmir wound up walking three and striking out eight while throwing 91 pitches. After Altuve's homer got Houston on the board in the fourth, Oakland came back in the fifth with two home runs to left field, a leadoff shot from shortstop Mar- cus Semien and a three-run homer from Billy Butler, a ballthatcleared theleft field wall and left the stadium. It was the first homer of the season for Butler, as it was for Semien and, in- deed, for Brett Lawrie, who cracked a solo homer in the second. Notes • Catcher Stephen Vogt gave the A's a scare when he didn't run far out of the batter's box after hitting an inning-ending double play grounder in the fifth inning. But Vogt, who played half a season, mostly as a D.H., with a fractured right foot last year, remained in the game. • The 8-1 win was the closest margin of victory for Oakland in any of its four wins, the others be- ing 8-0, 10-0 and 12-0. • Josh Reddick had a lit- tle residual soreness in his legs after playing in his first major league game of the season Sunday after a stint on the disabled list thanks to a right oblique strain. The oblique feels fine, he says, and the leg sore- ness "is nothing more than you would expect after be- ing out so long. I'll be fine." • Right-hander Jar- rod Parker threw three 15-pitch innings Monday in extended spring train- ing against the Milwaukee Brewers on his road back from Tommy John surgery. He's due for a bullpen ses- sion in a day or two, but af- ter that he could be ready for actual games with one of the club's minor league organizations. Parker could be back in the majors by early June, but the A's are being care- ful not to heighten ex- pectations with this hav- ing been Parker's second Tommy John surgery.
