Kevin Labanc, Ryan Donato score in shootout to lift Sharks over Ducks

ANAHEIM — Kevin Labanc and Ryan Donato scored shootout goals on similar moves and the Sharks snapped a two-game losing streak with a 5-4 victory over the Ducks on Friday night.

Donato began the shootout by deking right and catching John Gibson off balance, scoring on Gibson’s short side. Labanc then deked left and stuffed it in on Gibson’s glove side.

Brent Burns and Evander Kane each had a goal and an assist in regulation. Matt Nieto and Logan Couture also scored for the Sharks, and Martin Jones made 33 saves.

San Jose played its first game in a week after a series against Vegas was postponed due to coronavirus protocols.
