Antti Niemi was pulled after giving up three scores in the first 3:56 of the third after the Sharks entered the final 20 minutes with a one-goal advantage against the Flyers on Monday.
"It's a team-wide issue and, yeah, (Niemi) has to stop some of those," McLellan told EPSN.com. "It's as simple as that. Even in the second period, we weren't the better team. We were playing with fire. It was a matter of time. If we continued to play that way, we were going to get burnt and we did."
Matt Nieto scored twice in the first period, including one on the power play that ended the Sharks' 0-for-16 slump with the man advantage. Things just got worse from there, according to ESPN.com.
"When you get outworked and get outnumbered all over the rink, you're going to lose," McLellan said. "They worked harder than we were in all facets of the game -- the goaltender, the blue line, 5-on-5, special teams. They were just the better team. It's disappointing."
After some struggles, Dallas has managed to win its last two games and has gone 5-1-1 in its last seven.
"We've been playing hard every night, using our speed," Ryan Garbutt, who assisted on Roussel's goal and added an empty netter, said. "Everyone has been playing to the best of their abilities and having fun at the same time."
Injury report, according to NHL.com:
"Dallas defenseman Stephane Robidas (leg) is out indefinitely. ... The Sharks remain without forward Tyler Kennedy (lower body) and defenseman Jason Demers (groin). Left wing Raffi Torres (knee) is day-to-day, while center Logan Couture (hand) is not expected back until after the Olympic break. Center Tomas Hertl (knee) is also out."
