Senators top Sharks in San Jose

Chris Kelly’s tie-breaking goal at 18:54 of the third period enabled Ottawa to beat the Sharks 4-2 at SAP Center on Wednesday.

Kelly picked up a bouncing puck that neither Sharks defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic nor Justin Braun could handle at center to break in alone on Martin Jones. Kelly scored just his second goal of the season on the play.

Jean-Gabriel Pageau added an empty-net goal with 15.1 seconds left.

San Jose, which outshot Ottawa 37-17, saw its three-game winning streak snapped. The Senators won for the second time in five games.

Sharks defenseman Brent Burns tied the game with his 11th goal of the season at 6:30 of the third period.
