SAN JOSE – Martin Jones made 20 saves and Joe Pavelski scored the only goal as the Sharks closed out the regular season with a 1-0 win over Arizona at SAP Center on Saturday.
Pavelski’s marker came in the third period on the power play. After penalties to Boyd Gordon and Oliver Ekman-Larsson, San Jose enjoyed a full two-minute, two-man advantage. Pavelski took a pass through the slot from Joe Thornton and whipped in his 38th goal at 7:29.
Arizona had a pair of power plays with a chance to tie but couldn’t solve Jones, who recorded his sixth shutout.
