Terry, Carlsson lead Ducks to 3-1 victory over winless Sharks

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- - Troy Terry and Leo Carlsson scored Anaheim's first power-play goals of the season, Lukas Dostal made 27 saves and the Ducks kept San Jose winless with a 3-1 win over the Sharks on Tuesday night.

Alex Killorn added an empty-net goal and Cutter Gauthier had two assists for Anaheim.

Mikael Granlund scored for San Jose, which fell to 0-5-2. Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 37 shots and William Eklund and Jack Thompson each had an assist.

The Ducks began the season 0 for 20 on the power play before Terry scored 6:56 into the second period with a man advantage. Granlund tied the score for the Sharks early in the third period, but Carlsson buried the go-ahead goal on a power play 41 seconds later.

Danil Gushchin and Barclay Goodrow each hit a post for San Jose. The Sharks are the NHL's only winless team.

Takeaways

Sharks: San Jose can't catch a break as its winless streak continues. Gushchin's shot in the first period hit the crossbar, bounced down on the goal line and redirected off the post before being cleared out. Goodrow perfectly redirected a slap shot from the point in the second, but it dinged off the post.

Ducks: Anaheim finally overcame its power-play struggles. They started the game 0 for 3 on the power play before Terry ended their season-long drought.

Key moment

Sharks center Will Smith committed a tripping penalty just 10 seconds after Granlund scored the tying goal. The penalty allowed the Ducks to re-take the momentum, and Carlsson took advantage.

Key stat

Terry extended his point streak to five games. He has four goals and an assist in that stretch.

Up Next

The Sharks continue their four-game road trip at Los Angeles on Thursday night. The Ducks begin a four-game road swing at the New York Rangers on Saturday.
