GLENDALE, Ariz. — Aaron Dell continues to manage every situation that’s thrown at him with poise.
The Sharks backup goalie posted a .931 save percentage as a rookie last winter. He stopped 61 of 63 shots when he received back-to-back starts for the first time in his career earlier this season and he stoned three Arizona Coyotes snipers in his first NHL shootout Tuesday, making sure the Sharks didn’t allow a crucial point to slip through their fingers.

Dell also carried the Sharks into the shootout, making 15 saves on 16 shots after the Coyotes tilted the ice in the third.
