SAN JOSE — The Sharks just can’t catch a break this season when it comes to official reviews.
Friday night against the Winnipeg Jets, a review by the NHL’s Situation Room cost the Sharks the chance to take the lead in a game for the first time in a week.
After Barclay Goodrow scored at the 3:18 mark of the second period to tie the game 1-1, the Sharks thought they had the go-ahead goal as Evander Kane chipped one past Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck at the side of the net.
But the Jets challenged for goalie interference, and after a brief review by the NHL’s Situation Room, it was determined that Labanc’s stick pushed Hellebuyck’s pad, impairing his ability to play his position in the crease.
