Unlike the Barracuda, the San Jose Sharks had a great night on Tuesday, taking down the Calgary Flames by a score of 5-3 to improve to a 14-11-1 record on the season. The Flames were coming off of a loss and were hoping to bounce back against the Sharks, but, were stunned by the goal-scoring San Jose brought.
The first period was a rough spot for the Sharks. They were outshot 12-8 and outscored 2-1, with a couple of defensive lapses causing the team to struggle early on.
Milan Lucic powered past Brent Burns, who somehow couldn't get his long stick to reach and poke away the puck and sent the puck to Dillon Dube in the slot, who fired it past Adin Hill to open scoring a minute and a half into the game.
