Dieter Kurtenbach: The Sharks’ latest playoff push is fantastic, but the real goal has already been achieved

On Saturday, the Nashville Predators defeated the San Jose Sharks 6-3 in a key playoff-race matchup, with Ryan O'Reilly breaking a tie midway through the third period.
Dating back to November 2019, the Predators have now won 15 consecutive games against the Sharks, marking Nashville's longest winning streak against any single opponent.
Filip Forsberg scored twice in the first period, and Steven Stamkos added his 620th career goal to build a 3-0 lead; Macklin Celebrini and Alex Wennberg rallied for San Jose before Erik Haula and Tyson Jost sealed the win.
The loss leaves the Sharks stuck on 79 points, two points behind the Predators and the Los Angeles Kings for the final wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
San Jose hosts the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday and the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday to conclude its homestand, while the Predators travel to face the Kings on Monday.
