Suter scores twice as Canucks edge Sharks 3-2
Pius Suter scored his second goal of the game with 25.7 seconds left, and the Vancouver Canucks beat the San Jose Sharks 3-2 on Saturday night.
Jake DeBrusk also scored for Vancouver, giving the Canucks a 2-1 lead with 4:22 to play. It was DeBrusk’s first goal with Vancouver after signing a seven-year deal in the off-season. Kevin Lankinen stopped 21 shots.
Mikael Granlund had the tying goal for the Sharks with 1:17 to go, and Nico Sturm also scored for the Sharks. Mackenzie Blackwood had 25 saves.
The Canucks entered the game on a two-game skid after winning four straight. They snapped the Sharks’ three-game win streak after San Jose had lost nine straight to begin the season.
TAKEAWAYS
Canucks: After a 6-0 home loss to the Devils on Wednesday, Vancouver responded with a win over a suddenly surging Sharks team.
Sharks: Timothy Liljegren, who San Jose acquired from Toronto earlier this week, played nearly 17 minutes in his debut. Liljegren, a first-round selection in 2017, figures to receive more playing time with the rebuilding Sharks than he did with the Maple Leafs.
