SAN JOSE — The Sharks have their share of rivalries in the Pacific Division. Wednesday’s game at SAP Center demonstrated there’s really no love lost with the Nashville Predators, either.
The Sharks’ game against the Predators became testy after Marc-Edouard Vlasic was hit and knocked out of the game by Ryan Johansen in the third period. One fight and a handful of roughing penalties ensued before the Sharks finished off a 4-1 win.
Joonas Donskoi had a goal and an assist and Joe Pavelski scored a second period goal that gave Joe Thornton his 1,400th career NHL point.
