Ducks stop Thornton, Sharks 3-2 for 4th consecutive victory
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The Anaheim Ducks are making their own breaks after the break.
A 10-3-1 record between Christmas and the All-Star Game propelled them back into playoff contention, and after a few more days off for the festivities in Nashville, the Ducks picked up where they left off.
Ryan Garbutt, Hampus Lindholm and Rickard Rakell scored to send Anaheim past the San Jose Sharks 3-2 on Tuesday night for its fourth consecutive victory.
Frederik Andersen stopped 30 shots for the Ducks, playing the first of three crucial games this week against the teams holding playoff positions in the Pacific Division at the All-Star break.
