Last night in the National Hockey League (NHL), the games were played by Columbia’s Blue Jackets from Elvis Merzlikkin and Sharks by San Jose Balzers. Both teams suffered losses, but the Sharks capitulated hard, losing eight discs in a shameful loss.
Sharks lost Nashville’s Predators 0-0. Balcers played 15 minutes and 58 seconds, of which 22 seconds were in the majority and 35 in the minority. Balcers made one throw-in, blocked one throw and finished the match with a negative efficiency of -2.
Michael McCarron (2 + 2) and Romans Josi (0 + 4) each scored four points, while Matt Lafs (2 + 1) and Philip Tomasino (0 + 3) scored three points. “Predators” scored two goals in the first and second period, but scored in the third.
The Blue Jackets, on the other hand, lost to the Boston Bruins in a 4: 5 after-game litter. In a similar fight, both teams were in the lead in regular time, but Jakubs Vorāček 4: 4 three seconds before the end of the regular time. No goal was scored in extra time, but Patrice Barzeron was the only one to be accurate in the post-match throws.
Merzlikin played 63 minutes and 33 seconds, repelling 28 of the 32 shots and hitting 87.5% of the puck. He was beaten by Bergeron in the aftermath, while the Blue Jackets bulls did not score.
