For the first time since March 14, The Sharks have won two straight games. After being first in the Pacific Division for most of the season, San Jose dropped all the way to third. Tonight, they boosted their seeding chances with a 3-1 win over the Vancouver Canucks, even with two notable absences, Joe Thornton and Logan Couture.
It didn’t take long for the Sharks to open the floodgates. San Jose scored 2 goals in the first 30 seconds of the game— the fastest two goals to start a game in franchise history. First, Kevin Labanc’s spin-o-rama 18 seconds in found the back of the net.
