CHICAGO — That familiar old fist pump from No. 12 was back.
But the best gestures Thursday from the Sharks’ perspective against the Chicago Blackhawks came after the game.
Hugs, fist bumps and handshakes.
Patrick Marleau scored twice in a dramatic return to the NHL and Barclay Goodrow scored the go-ahead go at the 4:47 mark of the third period as the Sharks ended their season-long four-game losing streak with a come-from-behind 5-4 win over the Blackhawks at the United Center.
Goodrow’s goal came in front of the net off an assist from Joe Thornton, and gave the Sharks their first lead of the season after 284 minutes of hockey.
