Red-hot San Jose Sharks Dominate Seattle Kraken 6-1
On Wednesday night in Seattle, the San Jose Sharks delivered one of their most complete performances of the season, thrashing the Seattle Kraken 6-1 at Climate Pledge Arena.
Balanced Offensive Surge
Six different players found the back of the net for San Jose, showing impressive depth and balance across the lineup. Rookie Macklin Celebrini scored again, moving into a tie with Connor McDavid for the league lead in points.
Special Teams Shine
The Sharks’ power play finally broke through, thanks to a goal from John Klingberg, who’s faced heavy criticism in recent weeks. Their penalty kill unit was perfect, stopping all six Kraken opportunities and even adding a shorthanded goal by Ty Dellandrea.
Goaltending Strength from Askarov
Goaltender Yaroslav Askarov was sharp throughout the contest, particularly in the first period when the outcome was still uncertain. He made 28 saves on 29 shots, keeping the Kraken from building any momentum.
The Sharks, 5-2-1 in their last eight after starting 0-4-2, have quietly been playing solid hockey all season, but this victory might mark the first time everything truly clicked.
Fans can follow ongoing Sharks coverage through NBC Sports Bay Area and the San Jose Hockey Now podcast for updates, analysis, and highlights.
