The San Jose Sharks dropped their third straight game with a 4-3 shootout loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday.

San Jose had two third-period goals to tie the game but failed to score in the shootout. Mason McTavish scored the only goal in the skill competition tiebreaker.

Anaheim got goals from Trevor Zegras, Jackson LaCombe, and Sam Colangelo. Mason McTavish had three assists. Lukas Dostal made 28 saves.

Shakir Mukhamadullin scored a goal but left the game in the third period with what looked like an upper-body injury. Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Alexander Wennberg also scored for the Sharks, and Alexandar Georgiev made 35 saves.

San Jose once again started slowly but overcame it with some strong play during the final two periods.

Zegras gives the Ducks a 1-0 lead with a deflection off a clean face-off win and shot at 2:04 of the first period.

Mukhamadullin ties the game 1-1 with a one-timer from the point that squeaked through Dostal at 5:28.

LaCombe makes it 2-1 with a seeing-eye wrist shot from the point on the power-play at 8:13.

Colangelo makes it 3-1 after finishing a chaotic play around the Sharks' net at 19:01.

Vlasic makes it a 3-2 game with a great wrist-shot over Dostal's blocker at 4:08 of the third period.

Wennberg tied the game 3-3 at 16:46 after William Eklund found him with a great cross-crease pass.
