The San Jose Sharks won their second straight game by defeating the Edmonton Oilers 3-2 Thursday night.

Fabian Zetterlund, Tomas Hertl, and Filip Zadina scored for the Sharks. Mackenzie Blackwood was amazing again, making 39 saves.

Darnell Nurse and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored for the Oilers, and Stuart Skinner made 15 saves.

The Sharks continued a more robust brand of hockey that allows them to be competitive in more games. They are getting excellent goaltending on top of that.

Although not confirmed, there have been rumors about a possible change in head coach and more if Edmonton lost this game. Given tonight's result, the headlines will be packed with possibilities.
