Antti Niemi made 30 saves to win for the fifth time in eight starts against Chicago since leaving the Blackhawks for San Jose before last season.
The Sharks emerged with a 5-3 triumph and the Hawks dropped their seventh consecutive game. Niemi was the Hawks' goalie when they won the Stanley Cup in 2010 but he departed when the Hawks refused to pay him what he thought he deserved.
