SAN JOSE, Calif. – Sharks defenseman Erik Karlsson reached another career milestone Sunday night in what has so far been a record-setting season for the two-time Norris Trophy winner.
But outside of Karlsson’s assist on a Timo Meier first-period power-play goal, the Sharks weren’t able to create much offense — particularly at even strength — in what degenerated into a 5-2 loss to the Calgary Flames at SAP Center.
The Sharks allowed goals to Tyler Toffoli and Milan Lucic to fall behind 2-1 after two periods, then allowed three goals on four shots in the first 2:10 of the third as they had their modest four-game point streak snapped.
