Sharks Hold Off Red Wings For Game 1 Victory
Joe Pavelski got the San Jose Sharks off to a fast start in the game -- and for a change, a playoff series.
Pavelski scored the first of three goals in a 1:19 span in the first period and added a second power-play goal early in the third to lead San Jose to a 4-3 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday in Game 1 of the second-round series.
Dany Heatley and Devin Setoguchi added first-period goals of their own to help the Sharks end a string of four straight home losses in series openers.
