That’s Pete DeBoer hockey.

The Sharks were 19th in goals scored last season, allowing 201 goals over 82 games — fifth-best in the NHL., but they squeezed into the playoffs because they were stingy on defense often enough

I doubt the Sharks better their scoring output this year (they’re currently 24th in goals scored) but it is clear that they can allow fewer than 200 goals this season — if they play the way they did Monday.

In a league where seemingly everyone is zigging, too., the Sharks are one of the teams zagging. Going against the grain might just work for them

it isn’t sexy. It’s not as fun as the way Toronto plays. But on Monday night there was no question which team deserved to win.,Again

It wasn’t the one that is second in the NHL in scoring.

Rookie defenseman Tim Heed stole the show from Patrick Marleau in his return to San Jose.

Marleau finished with two shots on goal but didn't record a point as Martin Jones made 16 saves for San Jose to improve to 7-0 against the Maple Leafs. Jones has allowed just 10 goals in those starts.

Auston Matthews scored in the first period and Nazem Kadri added a goal with 1:10 remaining to cut San Jose's lead to 3-2. The Maple Leafs have lost four of five and were held to only two shots on goal in a span of more than 31 minutes in the second and third periods.

The Sharks controlled play for the first two periods but were unable to translate their 25-11 advantage in shots on goal to a lead on the scoreboard.

The Maple Leafs struck first midway through the first period when Matthews beat Logan Couture to the rebound of a point shot from Nikita Zaitsev and knocked it into the open net for his ninth goal.

San Jose tied it midway through the second when Pavelski deflected Heed's point shot past Andersen for his third goal.

Sharks defenseman Tim Heed figures there are at least a couple of reasons why he possesses such a blistering slap shot.

Heed spent countless hours practicing on a net at his home in his native Sweden since he was eight years old. But his dad, also had a terrific shot that helped him play professionally in the Swedish League from the mid-1980s until the late 1990s., Jonas

Since then he’s put up six points in nine games — accounting for the only two goals Sharks defensemen have scored this year — and has made a noticeable difference on the first power play unit.

His early third period goal Monday against Toronto — a patented ‘Heed Howitzer’ from above the circle — gave the Sharks a lead they wouldn’t relinquish as they went on to an impressive 3-2 win.

Heed, also assisted on Joe Pavelski’s second period goal and finished with a NHL career-high 21:06 of ice time., 26

aim better,“Mostly every day when I was younger after school I went out and shot pucks, get shots off quicker. It was a work in progress every day. Still working on it every day.”,” Heed said. “You always want to improve and get better
