St. Louis has gone 150:45 without scoring since Jori Lehtera’s second-period goal in Game 1 led to a 2-1 victory. Game 4 is Saturday in San Jose, where the Sharks have won six straight playoff games. That kind of goaltending and another dominant performance from Joe Thornton’s line was more than enough for San Jose. St. Louis coach Ken Hitchcock juggled his lineup after watching his team get outplayed the first two games. San Jose has controlled the play for much of this series, limiting St. Louis’ chances and taking advantage of miscues by the Blues to generate enough offence.
