BLUES with a little payback snaps SHARKS win streak with a 4-1 victory..
RECAP
San Jose, CA- The San Jose Sharks(13-6-2) 8 game winning streak is officially over thanks to a dominating performance by the St. Louis Blues(9-9).
"We were just not very good tonight. We played sloppy. Couldn't convert on the powerplay and just couldn't get anything going. Give St. Louis credit for absolutely just owning us tonight." Sharks Head Coach Peter DeBoer stated.
Blues Goalie Jake Allen turned away 32 shots and Vladimier Tarasenko scored twice to lift the Blues over the Sharks inside the SAP Center.
"We kinda owed it to them. They came into our building and beat us so we wanted to return the favor." Blues Head Coach Mike Yeo stated.
Sharks Goalie Martin Jones stopped 29 shots and allowed 4 goals as the Blues just crashed the net.
"Rough game. We just didn't have it tonight. We were winning games but just came out flat tonight." Martin Jones stated.
The Sharks avoided a shutout with 6:49 left in the third period with a slapshot by Rookie Tyler Adams.
His 11th of the year.
"I didn't want to go down without at least one goal." Joked Adams.
The Blues(9-9) got some payback on the Sharks as Mike Yeo's Team will not see San Jose(13-6-2) again until March 9 in St. Louis.
Edmonton(8-9-3) will play the Sharks on Tuesday night with former Sharks Head Coach Todd McLellan returning to San Jose.
