Martin Jones (3-1-0, 3.06 GAA, .894 SV%) at Philipp Grubauer (3-2-0, 2.01 GAA, .923 SV%, 1 SO)
Jones has posted three victories in four outings, but offensive support has been the name of the game. He has allowed three or more goals in three of his outings. The good news is that he has picked up two victories in two shootouts, standing tall in the extra sessions.
Grubauer started off shaky with four goals allowed on 32 shots in an opening-season loss to the St. Louis Blues Jan. 13. Since then, he has coughed up just six total goals in four starts. His only loss during the span was last time out against the Anaheim Ducks, surrendering two goals on just 14 shots a 3-1 setback Sunday.

Sharks at Avalanche: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Avalanche 5, Sharks 3
Money line (ML)
The Avalanche (-225) will cost you more than two times your potential return on home ice, and that’s not a good long-term betting strategy. AVOID and look to the puck line instead.
Against the spread (ATS)
COLORADO -1.5 (+125) is a good bet on home ice. Sure, only one of Jones’ three victories covered the puck line, but he is due. Jones has been very giving, and Colorado will get to him for several goals. The Sharks have struggled in Denver, winning just twice in the past seven tries, and the home team is 37-14 in the previous 51 meetings.
Over/Under (O/U)
OVER 6 (-120) is generally the rule when these teams hook up, going 18-7-3 in the past 28 meetings. In addition, the Over has hit in four of six for the Sharks, while going 1-1 in two home games for the Avalanche. Colorado has actually had some difficulty finding the back of the net, which is surprising given its depth up front. Eventually the Avs will break out, and I think they have a good chance to score plenty against Jones.

The San Jose Sharks announced this week that were ending their relationship with radio broadcasting partner 98.5 KFOX-FM and will now move all of their audio broadcasts to their team website and mobile app, per the Mercury-News.
The “Sharks Audio Network” will debut on Tuesday, January 12 at 8:00 .a.m. on sjsharks.com and Sharks+SAP Center App. The network will feature programming related to both the Sharks and San Jose Barracuda, the team’s AHL affiliate, which includes game audio broadcasts as well as “exclusive programming with Sharks Head Coach Bob Boughner, Sharks GM Doug Wilson, player profiles, game highlights and replays, catch-ups with Sharks alumni, classic Sharks games, as well as an opportunity for fans to interact with Sharks and Barracuda hosts and personalities.”
We are excited about the opportunity to not only bring you all #SJSharks game broadcasts, but lots more Sharks related content. You can listen in your car as well! https://t.co/TfZb4b7Mw3

Long-time team play-by-play announcer Dan Rusanowsky will continue in that role for his 30thseason, along with analysts Scott Hannan and Mark Smith. Randy Hahn, Bret Hedican, and Ted Ramey will also continue to be contributors to the network.
San Jose had partnered with KFOX as their flagship radio partner since the 2000-2001 NHL season. The station, which lacks the signal strength to reach certain parts of the Bay Area, wasn’t meeting the needs of the franchise as it tries to expand its reach.
“This certainly was not a situation where we were dissatisfied with KFOX. They’ve been a great partner to us,” said Scott Emmert, the Sharks’ vice president of communications. “But the reality is even the strongest signals have their limitations. There are only so many 50,000-watt flame throwers out there. With a lot of the competition that we have in the market with other professional teams, the reality is that some of those options are limited.”
Emmert added that it is possible the team will have some future broadcasts on terrestrial radio but, for the time being, they want to keep all of their audio broadcasting in one spot.
“We fully understand that there are lots of people out there who are attached to terrestrial radio and that this is going to take a little bit of time, it’s going to take a little bit of education on our part,” said Emmert.
Per a statement by Brian A. Figula, director of programming operations at KFOX, “All of us at 98.5 KFOX and Bonneville are big fans and supporters of the Sharks and value our history together. We are presently working with them in ways that continue what is a long term partnership and that are responsive to the significant changes in the market.”
While the team did experiment with some digital-only audio broadcasts, the initial reaction from some fans regarding the change has been less than universally appreciated.

This sucks. Stop changing things that don’t need to be changed. We already had access to this on the app for a while now. And trying to find where to listen on the app has been torturous as it’s now in an easily found spot. This was not a good move.

Many fans noted that the Oakland A’s also rolled out a similar web-only audio broadcast format last year and blowback from fans led them to return to AM radio during the season.
Like a couple others said, the Oakland A's tried this and it did not go well with their fanbase. Older listeners and those who commute a lot will want KFOX to remain an option for sure.

But there were also some positive reactions to the news from fans who are excited for the ability to listen to Sharks games beyond the reach of the radio stations.

I could never get a game on the radio anyway, in the bay area or in Sacramento area. They were always on low quality stations that I was unable to receive. And I could sometimes get it on satellite radio, if I was fortunate. Now I will be able to listen anytime. Thank you.
