Count Net's couple gates, Haie win 1. Colonal match-up

San Jose Sharks accept the Chicago Blackhawks in the SAP Center.

Will Smith and Collin Graf (twice) and Tyler Toffoli scored a 4-2 victory (or a defeat) in the race around Schaef.

Period 1

Ferraro closes, Mukhamadullin gets the puck and promotes him, offensive. This is a formula that the sharks hope to see more of the next year.

Smith goal: Eklund has scored a goal to make a piece and bring it to the middle of Lane. Celebrini tes only on Smith, who illuminates a one-timer past Knight. With the exception of Toffoli, Smith could have the best goal shooting in the team.

7 In: Graf BackCheck on Bedard, Steal. Wasn't Graf's best offensive shift, but there is an example of why he gained appreciation in the eyes of the franchise. Then Smith Kaiser holds low, that is a good job, Smith seems stronger to me.

9 In: Huge Georgiev save Donato, Eklund Low to High Pass, to reach Lilyhren hops over the stick and produce 2-to-1. Eklund has a hard time forcing Donato to return his back, but still a great chance.

Graf Tor: Think, it was Ferraro who kept the puck. Nice work, Graf has back to slot after the crash of Netz, Wenberg Pretty Feed, to be open.

8 left: San Jose Haie everywhere on Hawks, dear Mukhamadullin is in the middle of everything. Great shift from the 70s line.

7 left: There is a frustrating costess game. Equipped in the slot, making a game there, he holds, searches for the perfect game and is cut off. Nobody expects the slot to command the slot like a Keith Tkachuk, maybe only himself. But don't let yourself be cut off and lose the entire steam there. “Forget the perfect game, just make a piece” sounds like a solid coaching slogan.

Gregor penalty: Large position for a fighting sharks PK, can you hold a 2-0 lead in second place? Didn't look like a big effort. Giles gets some PK shifts for the first time, as promised.

Period 2

Nazar goal: Well, at least not on the PK. Nazar uses Ferraro as a screen, but I think you want Georgiev to accept it, it was not a rifle recording. Remenda only attributes Nazar Fwiw. Was out of the post and in.

Dickinson's penalty: Celebrini hit his back from Dickinson's back, goes hard into the boards. Cheap looking, there was a call, Celebrini appears in discomfort, but it looks good, it is on the power play. Vlasic then goes to Dickinson and it looks like Blackhaw's captain Foligno came to solemns and asks if he is doing well.

Graf-Ziel: I liked Celebrini's introduction and changed the pace at speed to win zone, not too because we are used to it. That is what the trainers want from him. Looks as if Smith had a shot, goes on the right to Graf, real place, real time.

9 Left: This costess shift was very much. Legal choice runs in OZ Corner so that Kovenko can snap Puck, the cross-slot pass almost shovels to Kovenko to get just a big big boy hockey.

Goodrow does not get enough recognition for how he has joined his boys this year. He was the contact.

Mikheyev -Tor: San Jose Sharks loses the net front type, maybe think of the offensive and lets the zone a little early.

I am left: This is not a good drop pass from Smith when he tried. Puck could also have slipped. But he was the only shark when entering, a short game, he had Puck, but no help, nobody closes. Eat the puck along the wall or get it deep, feed the counterattack in a game with a goal with less than a minute.

Let's see if the sharks can close this lead!

Period 3

Celebrini was only open for a second before Knight, but it could not overcome it.

2 in: Back-to-Back Big Georgiev parades after Smith was able to put a puck along the wall along the wall. Smith gets it depth as he should if he later has a single foray into the zone. Haie changed.

4 In: Beaut Ferraro Stretch to Smith for 2-to-1 with Graf, Big Knight Save.

7 in: Long Bomb Smith Stretch pass to Graf, love it if it works, but it doesn't, so you have a tired bunch out there after a freezer. After a tiny layer. Survive sharks.

5 left: Kaiser catches Graf from behind on his Hattrick Breakaway bid by Graf. Just a little more speed and strength … but his jump was very impressive and surprising this season.

4 left: Mukhamadullin gets the puck, skating it, brings it deep, small, but feels like he is now just reacting. No hesitation in his game, he has become, after the exhaustion of the squad on the deadline, really the defender of sharks No. 2.
