The San Jose Sharks sure don’t make it easy on themselves.
After a dominating first period which saw the Sharks race out to a 2-0 lead midway through the frame, it was San Jose who would be forced to come back from a two-goal deficit. Fortunately for the Sharks, they were up to the task as Brent Burns would take a perfect pass from Joe Thornton in overtime and snap one past Jonathan Bernier to give San Jose a 5-4 victory.
That’s now two-for-two for the Sharks on their current five-game trip as San Jose looks to offset their extended losing streak.
