The San Jose Sharks couldn’t extend their winning streak to three, falling last night to the Toronto Maple Leafs, 5-3.
Before the match began, there was a ceremonial puck drop with long-time Sharks goaltender Evgeni Nabokov who was accompanied by Joe Pavelski and Patrick Marleau to take the face-off for a late 2000s Sharks nostalgia.
But there was no time to linger, and the fireworks began at puck drop.
Last time these two teams met, back in January, there was an altercation between Joe Thornton and Nazem Kadri, that resulted in the Leafs forward taking a handful of Thornton’s beard after their fight.
