The San Jose Sharks are headed back to the playoffs. The Los Angeles Kings lost to the Edmonton Oilers 2-1 on Tuesday night which booked San Jose’s date to the dance before the Sharks finished their contest with the New York Rangers at SAP Center.
It’s San Jose’s second-straight trip to the postseason after missing the playoffs in 2015. The Sharks are looking to make it back to the Stanley Cup Final after falling to the Pittsburgh Penguins a year ago. They’re still in the hunt for the Pacific title.
Edmonton now has 93 points with 76 games played.
