Martin Necas and Stefan Noesen each had a goal and an assist for the Hurricanes (3-1-0), who are finishing a three-game road trip through California. Michael Bunting, Brady Skjei and Jesperi Kotkaniemi had two assists each.
Antti Raanta made 12 saves in relief of Frederik Andersen, who exited the game in the first period after a high shot hit him in the mask. He stayed out for the remainder of the game for precautionary reasons.

Sebastian Aho missed the game after being scratched late with a reported upper-body injury prior to warmups.
Fabian Zetterlund had a goal and an assist, and Tomas Hertl had two assists for the Sharks (0-2-1). Mackenzie Blackwood made 36 saves.
Zetterlund put San Jose ahead 1-0 at 3:14 of the first period, taking a breakaway pass from Hertl and beating Andersen over the blocker. The forward was acquired by San Jose on Feb. 26 in a trade that sent Timo Meier to the New Jersey Devils.
