Thornton's goal gives 3-2 Sharks win over Ducks

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) After their second game together, Joe Thornton, Dany Heatley and Patrick Marleau again raised the question why the San Jose Sharks' top three offensive threats weren't on the same line for the first 23 contests.

Heatley scored his NHL-leading 18th goal and set up Thornton's go-ahead tally in the third period, leading the Sharks to a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday night.

On Friday, Heatley recorded his second hat trick of the season and Thornton tied his franchise record with four assists in a 6-3 win over Philadelphia. (MORE)
