The San Jose Sharks just can’t seem to figure their home blues. This time, the Sharks battled back from three-goal third period deficit to cut the Tampa Bay Lightning lead to one, but San Jose couldn’t fully scale the mountain as the Sharks dropped yet another game at SAP Center, falling 4-3 on Saturday night.
San Jose was doomed by a slow start in this one as Nikita Kucherov made Brent Burns look silly in walking around the Sharks defenseman and firing one past Alex Stalock after a deflection off Paul Martin just 2:19 into game.
