In a thrilling game on Saturday night, the San Jose Sharks secured a 3-1 victory over the Boston Bruins, giving the Bruins their fifth consecutive loss. Lucas Carlsson scored the go-ahead goal in the third period, which was his first goal of the season. William Eklund and Barclay Goodrow also scored for the Sharks, while Alexander Georgiev made 22 saves.
Despite a goal from Casey Mittelstadt for the Bruins, it wasn’t enough to secure a win. The Sharks managed to regain the lead after Mittelstadt’s goal, with Goodrow sealing the win with an empty-netter.
The Bruins’ playoff hopes are dwindling as they have dropped 22 of their last 33 games since December, while the Sharks have won two of their last four games after a tough season.
With rookie Luca Cagnoni earning his first NHL point with an assist on Eklund’s goal, the Sharks showed promising signs for the remainder of the season. The Bruins will look to bounce back when they play the Los Angeles Kings, while the Sharks will host the Toronto Maple Leafs in their upcoming games.
Overall, the Sharks’ victory over the Bruins marked an important moment in their season, while the Bruins will need to regroup and refocus to improve their playoff chances.
