The San Jose Sharks kick off the post-All-Star portion of their schedule tonight as they travel to Southern California for a key divisional matchup. The Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks will tangle for the fourth time this season as San Jose looks to extend their lead over Anaheim in the Pacific Division.
Heading into this contest, the Sharks, sitting in second place, hold a five-point lead over the surging Ducks who also have a game in hand on San Jose. Both of these teams have been on quite the roll recently as they have identical 10-3-2 records over their last 15 games.
