Final
Sharks seeking eighth straight road win
Dec 28, 2007 - 1:09 PM San Jose (19-12-5) at St. Louis (18-13-3) 8:30 pm ESTST. LOUIS (Ticker) - The San Jose Sharks, who have had no trouble playing on the road this season, visit the St. Louis Blues on Friday.
San Jose owns a 13-3-2 road record this season and has won seven straight away from HP Pavilion, outscoring the opposition 22-10 over that span.
Milan Michalek scored two goals and Joe Pavelski added another as the Sharks extended their road win streak and snapped a three-game slide with a 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday.
Michalek ranks second on the Sharks with 12 goals and 18 points this season. The 23-year-old center trails Joe Thornton by just one goal for the team lead, but is 23 points behind the Sharks' captain, who has 28 assists this campaign.
The Blues are looking to end a two-game slide after dropping back-to-back games against the Atlanta Thrashers and Detroit Red Wings.
St. Louis was particularly dismal against the Red Wings, suffering its fourth shutout of the season in a 5-0 rout. Goaltender Manny Legace was pulled during the second period of that loss after allowing four goals on 16 shots.
Legace has struggled of late, losing five of his last seven starts. The 34-year-old netminder is 13-9-2 this season while posting a 2.34 goals-against average and a .913 save percentage.
