Duclair potted his 14th goal of the season early in the third period, but it wasn't enough as the Sharks fell to 15-39-6 in what has been a trying year.

Rotowire
Duclair provided an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Canucks.
Duclair was initially credited with the Sharks' first goal, but it later went to Mikael Granlund.
