Sharks eye fifth straight win

Nov 26, 2008 - 11:17 AM Chicago (10-4-5) at San Jose (17-3-1), 10:30 p.m. EST

SAN JOSE, California (Ticker) -- Teams have had difficulty defeating the San Jose Sharks thus far - especially at the HP Pavilion.

San Jose goes for its fifth straight win when it hosts the Chicago Blackhawks on Wednesday.

The Sharks have outscored opponents, 23-9, during the winning streak, which includes Saturday's 7-2 triumph over the Washington Capitals.

Defenseman Rob Blake had four assists and Ryane Clowe scored twice for San Jose, which is 11-0-1 at home.

Chicago has won the first three games on its current six-game road trip, including Saturday's 5-4 overtime triumph at Toronto.

Dave Bolland scored the game-winner 49 seconds into the extra session and Patrick Sharp tallied twice to bring his team-leading total up to 12 in Saturday's triumph.

San Jose is second in the league at 3.71 goals per game with Chicago ranked third at 3.63.

Sharks goaltender Evgeni Nabokov will be in charge of stopping the Blackhawks' offense as he makes his first start since November 6, when he suffered a lower-body injury in a 5-4 shootout victory over the St. Louis Blues. Backup Brian Boucher was 5-1-1 in seven games in place of Nabokov.
