Erik Karlsson and Brent Burns led the Sharks to a Game 1 win over the GoldenKnights.
Brent Burns, Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Evander Kane added goals in a wild second period that featured heavy hitting, a parade to the penalty box and the high intensity expected in a series between two franchises that have become fierce rivals in just two seasons.
The captain set the tone for the Sharks with his goal in the first period and then his presence on the ice in the second despite playing hurt thanks to taking a puck to his face. Things then got wild early in the period following a series of penalties. After coincidental minors to San Jose’s Brenden Dillon and Jonathan Marchessault left the teams playing four on four, the Sharks went on a power play when Deryk Engelland was called for a trip.
The Golden Knights got on the board seconds after Pavelski’s penalty ended when Stone got inside of Burns at the side of the net to knock in a loose puck.
