This is the lone meeting between the teams. They last met on Dec. 2, 2008, when the Sharks cruised to a 5-2 victory at HP Pavilion. Joe Thornton had a goal and three assists.
San Jose continues to roll, as the Western Conference's top team enters Monday's action with wins in eight of its last 10 games. The Sharks increased their lead in the West to four points with a 4-3 win at Nashville on Saturday night. Dany Heatley scored twice for San Jose.
Not only did Toronto pull out the aforementioned emotional victory on Saturday, but it snapped the Senators' 11-game winning streak in the process. Phil Kessel and Luke Schenn each scored twice and added an assist in the victory, while Giguere, recently acquired from Anaheim, was perfect again in a 30-save effort.
