In a rematch of the first round battle in the 2009 Stanley Cup Playoffs between the two California teams, the Sharks stormed out of the gate with three unanswered goals before the first period horn sounded. Benn Feffiero got San Jose on the board first at the 7:30 mark. Patrick Marleau and Joe Thornton scored less than two minutes apart late in the period to give the Sharks a 3-0 advantage before the first intermission.
Devin Setoguchi added another to extend the lead to 4-0 in the second frame.
Ducks defenseman Ryan Whitney potted a power play goal midway through the third period, but the game was too far out of reach at that point for Anaheim to mount any sort of comeback.
Evgeni Nabokov was superb for the Sharks, stopping 24 of the 25 shots that came his way. Ducks netminder Jonas Hiller allowed four goals on 37 shots.
Notes
Current Duck Dany Heatley finished the game with two assists for the Sharks.
