Sharks’ Duclair in spotlight; and how long losing streak can end (from a guy who’s been there)

SAN JOSE – Anthony Duclair will play his 500th career NHL game on Thursday night when the San Jose Sharks host the Vancouver Canucks.“I’m so blessed,” Duclair said Thursday morning. “All I can think of right now is my family back home and all the sacrifices they made for me to live my childhood dream. Five hundred goes by pretty quickly.”But considering Duclair’s contract status – and the Sharks’ dismal start to the season – it’s fair to wonder how many more milestones the winger will celebrate in San Jose.One of the pressing questions Sharks general manager Mike Grier will have to answer in the coming months is how many of his pending unrestricted free agents he’ll try to sign past this season.

Today’s column is a plea on behalf of neighbors who are tired of looking at porches and patios cluttered with rusty tricycles, dilapidated dog houses, step ladders, last year’s Christmas lights and every faded tchotchke that didn’t quite make it to the garbage bin but should have.A few weeks ago, a fed-up reader wrote in to say, “How about an article on how to undecorate your porch? Honestly, it has gotten out of hand. In my neighborhood, porches are ‘decorated’ with signs, chairs, tables, lamps, stools, end tables, pillows, plants, wreaths, string lights, mini refrigerators, lawn statues, fake trees, wicker deer and more, sometimes all on one porch! Can you please tell your readers to throw away half of what they have on their porches, then throw away half of what is still left? Thanks. Marlene”We talk a lot in this column about decluttering the inside of our homes, but we shouldn’t ignore the rooms outside.
