Reimer shines in bounce-back performance, but Sharks are stymied in another home loss

SAN JOSE, Calif. – James Reimer did what he could Saturday to help the San Jose Sharks snap a lengthy losing streak on home ice. But the skaters in front of him didn’t offer up much in support.

Julien Gauthier scored at the 13:57 mark of the third period, the 40th shot that Reimer had faced up until that point, as the Sharks lost 2-1 to the New York Rangers on Saturday before an announced sellout crowd of 17,562 at SAP Center.

The Sharks managed just four shots on net in the third period, including Logan Couture’s goal with 16.1 seconds left in regulation time that helped his team avoid its first shutout of the season.
