The San Jose Sharks defeated the Montreal Canadiens 4-3 in overtime on Tuesday. Macklin Celebrini, Michael Misa and Tyler Toffoli scored for the Sharks. Alex Nedeljkovic made 31 saves for the win. Nick Suzuki, Juraj Slafkovský and Cole Caulfield scored for the Canadiens. Jakub Dobes made 26 saves in the loss.

The Sharks were down 3-1 at the start of the third period but recovered in the third to force overtime. After the game, Michael Misa talked about the late turn-around:

“I think we were just connected, playing desperate like especially with the puck in their zone, we were forechecking hard, playing through their… you know, they’ve got a lot of skilled D over there so you try to play through them and make them turn over pucks. And I thought we did a good job of that in the third.”

Macklin Celebrini scored the first goal of the game at 13:49 of the first period. Jake Evans had the puck along the boards in Montreal’s zone and Will Smith was pressuring him. He made a pass that Celebrini intercepted, leading to a snap shot from the slot. It was Celebrini’s fourth goal of the season.

Nick Suzuki tied the game at 16:38. Gathering up a stray puck in the neutral zone, Juraj Slafkovský carried the puck into the zone two-on-one with Suzuki. Slafkovský chose to pass and Suzuki scored from just inside the faceoff circle.

The first period shots were 12-10 Montreal. The Sharks took two penalties in the period, allowing one shot to the Montreal power play and mustering one short-handed shot.

Slafkovský made it 2-1 with a snap shot at 1:49. He carried the puck into the zone at speed, skated to the net and snapped it in. An assist went to Cole Caulfield.

Caulfield scored at 14:03 to make it 3-1. He caught Suzuki’s pass from behind the net to snap the puck into the net. Assists went to Suzuki and Phillip Danault.

The shots in the second period were 11-10 Montreal. The penalties were numerous but mostlly came from one scrum at 11:57. Four minors were handed out at that time, two to each team. The Sharks were the only team to be short-handed in the second with one penalty at 17:27.

Michael Misa started the comeback at 5:36 of the third period. Misa and Kiefer Sherwood drove the play out of the Sharks’ zone and carried the puck to the other end. Misa’s snap shot beat the goalie on the stick side.

There were three penalties handed out at 9:33 of the third, giving the Sharks a power play. Tyler Toffoli made good use of that and scored the tying goal at 11:09. Celebrini sold a slap shot and instead passed it to Toffoli in the middle for the shot. An assist also went to Jacob Trouba.

The shots in the third were 11-8 Canadiens.

Jakub Dobes was called for interfering with Collin Graf at 1:53 of overtime. At 2:13, Celebrini took his shot from above the faceoff dot off a pass from Ivar Stenberg. An assist also went to Will Smith.

The Sharks next play on Thursday at 4:00 PM PT in Ottawa against the Senators.

Sharks Fall 3-1 to Leafs, Special Teams Struggle

By Mary Walsh

The San Jose Sharks lost 3-1 to the Toronto Maple Leafs Monday. Auston Matthews, Gavin McKenna and Nick Paul scored for the Leafs. Sergei Bobrovsky made saves for the win. Mason Marchment scored for the Sharks and Yaroslav Askarov made 29 saves in the loss.

The Leafs won the special teams contest as well as the game. This was not a surprise as Toronto has the top penalty kill in the League right now and a top power play. Aside from scoring two power play goals, they had five power play shots and three short-handed shots. The Sharks had just three power play shots. It was a disappointing shift from recent games for the Sharks. Sharks Captain Macklin Celebrini said: “We’ve had some amazing power plays this year where we’re getting a lot of chances and had really good chemistry. Just tonight was a little off.”

Mason Marchment gave the Sharks a lead at 13:54 of the first period with a backhand shot. That was the third time that Marchment scored the first goal of the game and those are his first three goals as a Shark. That has not happened since 1993.

Marchment gloved the puck down in front of the net, then moved to his left before sneaking the puck past a prone Bobrovsky. An assist went to Tyler Toffoli.

The shots in the first were even at nine each. Each team took two penalties, though the Sharks had almost a minute of five-on-three to kill.

The second period was scoreless until the final seconds. The Sharks had just taken a penalty for too many men on the ice when Auston Matthews scored with 12 seconds to go. His wrist shot came from just inside the faceoff circle. Assists went to Kirill Marchenko and Darren Raddysh.

The Sharks took two penalties in the second period and the Leafs had one. The shots were 13-10 Sharks.

Gavin McKenna gave the Leafs a 2-1 lead at 4:56 of the third period. The goal came on the power play, a wrist shot close in on the left side of the net. Assists went to Auston Matthews and William Nylander.

In the final minute, Nick Paul scored an empty net goal for Toronto. Matthews and Colton Sissons got assists on that one.

The shots were 12-9 Toronto. The teams were even in penalties called with two each, and two of those were matching minors.

The Sharks next play on Tuesday at 4:00 PM PT in Montreal against the Canadiens.

John Gibson made 32 saves for the win. Dmitry Orlov, Macklin Celebrini and Ivar Stenberg scored for San Jose. Alex Nedeljkovic made 25 saves in the loss.

This was the second time in two games that the Sharks gave up late leads. After the game, Sharks forward Alexander Wennberg said: “We gotta play a little bit smarter. Obviously, again we had opportunities to finish this game and go away with those two points but… small details.”

Justin Faulk gave Detroit a lead 12:47 into the game with a snap shot on the power play. Mason Marchment was in the box for interference on Andreas Englund. Faulk took the shot from the middle of the blue line off a pass from Emmitt Finnie. An assist also went to Michael Rasmussen.

Dmitry Orlov tied the game at 17:59 with a slap shot on the power play. During that power play, Ben Chiarot was in the box for holding the stick. Barclay Goodrow and Keegan Kolesar were also in the box for fighting. Orlov also took his shot from just below the blue line, right down the middle. Assists went to Ivar Stenberg and Macklin Celebrini.

The Sharks took just one minor penalty in the first. The Red Wings took two. The shots were 14-5 San Jose.

Macklin Celebrini gave the Sharks a lead at 4:55 of the second period. Celebrini took the shot from high in the slot, off of a pass from Will Smith. Michael Kesselring also got an assist.

That was the only goal of the period. There were plenty of penalties called in the second: two for each team, with three seconds of a two-man advantage for Detroit. The shot count favored Detroit 10-8.

Ivar Stenberg made it 3-1 with a power play goal at 2:48 of the third. Andreas Engkund was in the box for tripping Marchment at 1:46. Stenberg had been hovering around the Detroit net early in his shift. He went for a little skate but the cut back down through the slot and caught a centering pass from Alexander Wennberg. Macklin Celebrini also got an assist.

Emmitt Finnie trimmed the Sharks lead at 5:00 of the third. He tipped in a shot from Michael Brandsegg-Nygård. Moritz Seider also got an assist.

With about two minutes left, the Red Wings pulled their goaltender. With the extra skater, Alex DeBrincat tied the game with 1:33 left. The puck pinballed around but the assists went to Viktor Arvidsson and Seider.

The third period only saw two penalties called, one to each team. The shots were 11-8 Detroit.

Macklin Celebrini drew a holding penalty midway through overtime but the Red Wings hung on. The shots in overtime were 5-1 Sharks.

Alex DeBrincat, Michael Brandsegg-Nygård and Lucas Raymond shot for Detroit. Raymond scored the only shootout goal. Will Smith, Macklin Celebrini and Ivar Stenberg shot for San Jose.

On the injury front, defenseman Darnell Nurse was back in the lineup after missing the prior game.

SAN JOSE, Calif. – Tuesday night the NHL’s Frozen Frenzy ended with the San Jose Sharks losing to the Boston Bruins 6-3 in a rare 8:00pm start time at SAP Center. The Bruins finished Tuesday’s contest improving to 5-2-0 while the Sharks drop to (3-3-0) and had to put off a win in regulation for another time.

The Bruins started hot 12 minutes and 55 seconds into the game when Fraser Minten scored his third goal of the season to put Boston ahead.

The Sharks had two milestones in Tuesday’s 6-3 loss, one was Jacob Trouba’s first goal as a member of the Sharks which tied the game at one. The other was Ivar Stenberg scoring his first NHL goal. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2026 NHL Draft was set up by Macklin Celebrini and Dmitry Orlov to tie the game at two early in the second period.

Trailing 4-2 heading into the third after goals by Matthew Poitras and Pavel Zacha, San Jose tallied another on the powerplay off the stick of Macklin Celebrini. It was Celebrini’s second goal of the season, assisted by Stenberg and Smith.

That would be the last time the Sharks put the puck in the back of the net as the Bruins went on to score two more including Fraser Minten’s second goal of the night en route to a 6-3 win.

San Jose out-shot the Bruins 38-26 and despite having numerous scoring opportunities wound up on the wrong end of a great performance in net by Jeremy Swayman.

Darnell Nurse did not return to the game after engaging in a fight with Nikita Zadorov and head coach Ryan Warsofsky declined to comment on Nurse’s status postgame.

The Sharks head to Nashville to face the Predators, who took a 5-2 loss against the Vegas Golden Knights Tuesday night. Puck drop at Bridgestone Arena at 5:00pm Pacific Thursday night. It’s the first of a six game roadtrip, tied for the longest of the season.

SAN JOSE, Calif. — The Edmonton Oilers defeated the San Jose Sharks 3-1 on Saturday, overcoming Macklin Celebrini’s third-period goal to earn their fourth straight win at SAP Center. At the same time, the Men in Teal recorded their second loss of the season.

Vasily Podkolzin, Mattias Ekholm and Alex Formenton scored for Edmonton, while Connor McDavid recorded an assist. Goaltender Tristan Jarry made 19 saves as the Oilers improved to 4-0-1.

Celebrini scored in his return to the lineup after missing two games with a lower-body injury. The Sharks captain finished with his first goal of the season, but San Jose was unable to complete a comeback against Edmonton in the final 10 minutes of the third.

Edmonton stuck first after so many attempts; the fourth line made it work. Oilers forward Issac Forward protected the puck along the boards in the Sharks’ zone; the Sharks ‘ D-line made a poor play in defending, leaving Oilers defenseman Mattias Eklund to make a powerful slap shot wide open to put the Oilers up by one goal.

Edmonton extended its lead early in the third period. McDavid in full speed carried the puck down the left wing before finding Podkolzin near the top of the slot. Podkolzin finished with a one-timer at 3:13 to make it 2-0.

Two minutes later, Oilers Forward, Alex Formenton added another goal, taking a pass from Mathieu Joseph on a rush before beating Askarov with a backhand shot over the goaltender’s left pad.

San Jose responded at 11:19 when Celebrini received a pass from Michael Misa near the left faceoff circle and scored with a wrist shot to cut the deficit to 3-1.

The goal provided a bright spot for the Sharks, who were unable to find another breakthrough in the final minutes.

Askarov concluded with 17 saves for San Jose, which fell to 3-2-0. Edmonton extended its season-opening point streak to five games, while McDavid and Podkolzin each continued their individual point streaks to start the season.

The Oilers secured the victory with three goals of their own, while Celebrini’s return offered San Jose a positive takeaway despite the loss and good ovation at the Tank.

Sharks are back at home this tuesday night against the Boston Bruins at 8pm local time.
