Utah Hockey Club and San Jose Sharks head-to-head record
Utah beat the Sharks 3-1 in their most recent game, which happened on October 2, 2024. They fought well both offensively and defense. This result shows that Utah can successfully contain San Jose's offense, which has been having a tough season. Utah's Clayton Keller and Nick Schmaltz are scoring a lot of points, so they are ready to tear down San Jose's defense again. San Jose still hasn't won a game, and goalie Vitek Vanecek's 4.0 goals-against average and.869 save percentage make things even harder. There is a good chance that Utah will beat their rivals again if they can keep up the scoring pressure and keep San Jose's power play under control.
