EDGE Analysis

Nieto tallied at 12:52 of the first period, giving the Sharks a 2-1 lead. The 30-year-old winger has scored in back-to-back games after going seven outings without a point. He's at six points, 31 shots on net, 19 hits and a minus-9 rating through 19 contests overall. While his offense doesn't stand out, he's a solid defensive forward, though his presence on the second line speaks to the Sharks' lack of scoring wingers.
