Defeats for Peterka and Sturm
The Buffalo Sabers are far from that with JJ Peterka. Despite the German national striker’s 20th goal of the season, the Sabers lost to the Winnipeg Jets 2:5 (1:1, 1:0, 0:4) and are well behind the coveted places.
Nico Sturm’s fifth goal wasn’t enough for the San Jose Sharks. The team from California lost 3:4 (0:0, 2:2, 1:2) to the Minnesota Wild despite a 2-0 lead and remains the second-worst NHL team with 15 wins from 60 games this season. Russian Kirill Kaprisow scored three times for the winners.
