What's Wrong With Martin Jones?

from Paul Gackle of the Mercury News,

Martin Jones’ post-injury struggles continued in Denver Thursday night, raising questions about whether he’s fully healthy and still the Sharks best option in goal.

Jones surrendered goals on three-consecutive shots in the first period of the Sharks 5-3 loss to the Colorado Avalanche (25-16-3), putting his team into an early hole that it couldn’t climb out of despite a late charge.

The Sharks goalie could be seen walking out of his team’s locker room after the loss with a noticeable limp. Jones was walking out of the arena with his weight predominantly on his left leg, suggesting that he’s nursing a lower-body ailment on his right side.

It wouldn’t be entirely surprising if Jones is still fighting through an injury he suffered in the third period of a game on Nov. 25 that caused him to miss one start.
