The San Jose Sharks hosted the Buffalo Sabres on Friday night. Much like in their game against Edmonton, this game seemed like it should be a barn-burner on paper, but oddly we ended up with one of the most unexpected…
The Buffalo Sabres defeated the San Jose Sharks 2-0 on Friday night behind a 24-save shutout performance from goaltender Colten Ellis. Olen Zellweger scored the game's opening goal just 50 seconds into the second period, while Zach Benson added an empty-net tally in the final minute of regulation to secure the road victory.
San Jose netminder Yaroslav Askarov delivered a strong outing in defeat, stopping 38 of 39 shots faced. Despite several scoring opportunities from Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith, the Sharks were unable to beat Ellis, leaving San Jose scoreless ahead of their upcoming matchup against the Vancouver Canucks.
