Thornton, Sharks look to bounce back in rematch vs. Kings

Nov 28, 2007 - 3:27 PM Los Angeles (9-13-1) at San Jose (11-8-3) 10:30 pm EST

SAN JOSE, California (Ticker) - The San Jose Sharks hope that they will fare better with three days off than with six.

Joe Thornton and the Sharks will look to avenge Saturday's loss when they get their rematch with Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday in a battle of Pacific Division rivals.

The Kings used first-period goals from Anze Kopitar and Dustin Brown to propel them to a 2-1 victory over the Sharks on Saturday. It marked Los Angeles' only win in its last seven contests.

On the other hand, it was San Jose's first loss in regulation since November 7, going 4-0-2 in that span.

The 2006 Hart Trophy winner, Joe Thornton has been held pointless in his last two games, but still leads the Sharks with eight goals and 16 assists this season.

Michael Cammalleri leads the Kings with 12 tallies, while Alexander Frolov has a team-leading 16 assists and 20 points. Frolov, however, has not played in the previous two games with a groin injury.

Los Angeles has the worst record in the Western Conference.
