Final
Sharks, Ducks set to renew Pacific Division rivalry
Dec 22, 2007 - 2:25 PM Anaheim (17-15-5) at San Jose (18-11-5) 10:30 pm ESTSAN JOSE, California (Ticker) - The San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks have played four times this season, and only once have they avoided a shootout.
Will it be more of the same when they meet for the third time this week?
The Sharks earned a 2-1 shootout win over Anaheim in the opener of a home-and-home series on Sunday and the Ducks answered with a 2-0 victory Tuesday.
Corey Perry and Bobby Ryan scored in the win and Jean-Sebastien Giguere stopped all 20 shots he faced in the Ducks' victory.
Giguere has started all four games between the teams and has not allowed more than two goals in any of those contests.
Anaheim followed up Tuesday's win with a 2-1 victory over the Colorado Avalanche, while the Sharks fell, 3-2, in a shootout to the lowly Phoenix Coyotes on Thursday.
The winner of Saturday's contest will have the inside track on passing front-runner Dallas (19-12-4) and moving into first place in the crowded Pacific Division.
