Blackhawks set NHL record with win over Sharks
CHICAGO – The Blackhawks set an NHL record for the best start to a season, beating the San Jose Sharks, 2-1, on Friday night to give them at least one point in their first 17 games.
Blackhawks rookie Brandon Saad scored a short-handed goal early in the third period to snap a 1-all tie. Chicago (14-0-3) won its fourth straight game to break a mark set by the 2006-07 Anaheim Ducks, who earned points in their first 16 games.
The Blackhawks equaled that run Tuesday with a shootout win over Vancouver.
