EXPLAINED: Sharks fall to stars losing streak now the longest in over 16 years - The Real Truth

The Sharks probably deserved a better fate than the one they were dealt Saturday night against the Dallas Stars.

But despite creating a handful of quality scoring chances and playing an even game while 5-on-5, the Sharks once again couldn’t find the extra goal they needed in a 2-1 loss to the Stars at American Airlines Center.

Sharks winger Timo Meier scored his 33rd goal of the season at the 19:23 mark of the second period to cut the Dallas lead to 2-1. But the Sharks couldn’t overcome a first-period, even-strength goal by Tyler Seguin and a short-handed marker by Michael Raffl, as they lost their ninth straight game.
