Sharks edge past Canadiens in 2-1 winSAN JOSE, California -- San Jose extended its mastery of Montreal at home by beating the Canadiens 2-1 on Friday in a clash of NHL division leaders. The Canadiens failed to maintain pressure against Jones, who turned away several point-blank shots early and then was rarely tested. Andrew Lehkonen scored a power-play goal late in the third period but there was not time enough for the Canadiens to find a tying goal. In the day's other game, Sean Monahan scored the shootout winner in Calgary's 3-2 victory over Minnesota. Kris Versteeg and Mikael Backlund scored in regulation for the Flames, while the Wild's goals came from Chris Stewart and Mikko Koivu.
