Score 3-2 Sharks 2nd period

GAME TIME

The Oilers roll into San Jose looking to build on their 4–3 overtime win from the first meeting on January 29, facing a Sharks team that has been uneven but dangerous at home. Edmonton leans on Leon Draisaitl’s recent surge and a power play operating at a league‑best clip, while San Jose counters with its young core—Macklin Celebrini, Will Smith, and William Eklund—who’ve driven most of their offense despite the team’s defensive volatility. Goaltending remains a swing factor: Edmonton’s tandem has been inconsistent, and San Jose’s numbers are similarly shaky, setting the stage for another high‑event matchup. With the season series shifting to SAP Center and both clubs hovering around the playoff bubble, the stakes tighten and the margin for error shrinks. nhl.com
