The San Jose Sharks' dull bellyaching about their SAP Center ice came to a head Thursday, and after a shutout loss to the New Jersey Devils, when it was suggested to coach Peter DeBoer that the team may need to simplify its approach.

"Maybe we fix the ice," DeBoer responded. "How about that?"

Swiftly, Sharks COO John Tortora has responded to the complaint, writing in an email to CSNCalifornia.com that steps are being made to improve the surface that the Sharks share with their American Hockey League outfit, the San Jose Barracuda.

"The increased rains the Bay Area has received this year, along with the humidity that comes with it, has made it more challenging to keep building conditions at an optimal level," Tortora wrote, according to CSN's Kevin Kurz.

"We made the decision to implement a supplemental dehumidification system, much earlier than we have in the past. The system is expected to be installed and online within the next two weeks."

And in time for the postseason. How about that?
