San Jose looks to extend its winning streak to 3 games when they tangle with the 10-15-3 Thrashers Tuesday at HP Pavilion.

Sporting a 10-12-4 overall record and a 3-1-2 mark within the division, the Sharks aim to knock the Thrashers (7-3-2 in the division) for a loss.

The Sharks are favored, opening as 195 chalk, with an opening total of 6.5. They are 10-12-4 this season and 9-15-2 OU. The Thrashers are 10-15-3 and are 13-11-4 OU.

Bob Hartley's team was busy last game losing to the Coyotes 5-2 as 175 underdogs. The 7 goals sent that game as a push against the total of 7.

San Jose won at Toronto last game as a 210 underdog against the Maple Leafs, winning 5-4. The total sailed over.
