I thought we had the jump on them right away and that was a big part of the win tonight.”Fleury, who improved to 5-0 in the playoffs, got his 13th career shutout in the playoffs – and second straight.

It has now outscored its opposition 14-3 in five games.”We got better in practice, we ramped it up, so we were excited to get going.” Neal said. ”We talked about having a good first shift and I thought every guy did that tonight. I thought we went to the net well. We did good things, for us I think we have to look at them, they’re going to be a hungry team, they’re going to be a lot better. They’ll be putting that one behind them pretty quick and looking to be a better hockey team so we gotta be ready.”San Jose, which swept Anaheim in the first round, looked out of sorts by the time Vegas put its first three in the net just 6:02 into the game, and the Sharks lost their cool early in the third period, when Evander Kane was ejected for cross-checking Pierre-Edouard Bellemare in the face after a whistle.Martin Jones, who stopped 128 of 132 shots in the first round against the Ducks Calvin Ridley Jersey Limited , was pulled a little more than three minutes into the second period after allowing five goals on 13 shots.
