ST. LOUIS — On a night where the Sharks made a trade to bolster the bottom of their lineup, the top line took care of the heavy lifting.
A few hours after the Sharks (33-19-8) traded for Eric Fehr to plug a hole at the fourth line center position, the team opened up its four-game road trip on the right note by beating the St. Louis Blues (34-23-4) behind a pair of goals from Logan Couture’s line.
The victory extended the Sharks winning streak to three games and allowed them to regain a three-point lead over the Los Angeles Kings and the Anaheim Ducks for second place in the Pacific Division.
