SAN JOSE – For the first time in nearly five months, the Sharks are over .500 in their own building. Considering they’re pushing for home ice advantage in the first round of the playoffs, that’s a positive development.
Key goals by Joel Ward and Tomas Hertl, and 25 saves from James Reimer helped the Sharks to a 3-0 win over the Coyotes on Sunday at SAP Center. It was San Jose’s fourth straight win at home, where they improved to 16-15-3 on the season.
The last time the Sharks had better than a .500 winning percentage at home was Oct.
