SAN JOSE Womens Kyle Palmieri Jersey , Calif. (AP) Joakim Ryan’s breakout game couldn’t have come at a better time for the San Jose Sharks.The 24-year-old rookie scored his first two NHL goals, including the tiebreaker with 2:27 left, and the San Jose Sharks rallied after giving up a three-goal lead to beat the Edmonton Oilers 6-4 Saturday night.Joe Pavelski also scored twice, and Tomas Hertl and Barclay Goodrow had the other goals for the Sharks, who snapped a two-game skid. Aaron Dell had 27 saves.”Forty-five games in you start to think about it a little – is it ever going to happen?” Ryan said. ”It’s definitely nice to get that first one, and getting that second was even better.”It was kind of crazy. My dad got sick before the game so he wasn’t able to make it to the game. But he’s going to meet us in Anaheim tomorrow if he feels better. But maybe he should stay home more often.”Sharks coach Pete DeBoer said the soft-spoken Ryan has shown maturity.”I was really happy for him, he shows up every day and doesn’t say much, just works hard,” DeBoer said. ”We’ve been asking our defenseman all year – all of them – to get up and play and create offense. Playing with (All-Star defenseman Brett Burns) it’s easy to just sit there and watch him go, it’s nice to see Yoke take advantage of that.”Zack Kassian had two goals, and Leon Draisaitl and Brandon Davidson also scored as Edmonton scored four consecutive goals to take a 4-3 lead early in the third period.

We’re not going to give up, but at the same time I’m not happy about clawing back and then watching the team fall back.”We were expecting to win this game. This is frustrating, it wears on you. Everyone is frustrated. We need to close games out and get those two points.”NOTES: Oilers F Blake Caggiula and D Andrej Sekera were scratches after taking pucks to the face in Friday’s game against Anaheim. … D Adam Larsson was out of Saturday’s lineup for personal reasons. .
