SAN JOSE – The Sharks reached six goals on Saturday night the way teams typically reach six goals – by getting contributions from players that don’t often put the puck in the net, in addition to a few fortunate bounces, in a 6-3 triumph over Detroit.
While they’re still having some issues defensively and in their own zone with two of their top six defensemen injured, and goalie Martin Jones is giving up some concerning rebounds lately, those matters were masked at least one night by the Sharks becoming the final team in the NHL this season to score more than four times in a single game.
