Overview
- San Jose signed 24-year-old UNH goaltender Kyle Chauvette to an amateur tryout to serve as an emergency backup in Boston after starter Yaroslav Askarov was ruled out.
- Chauvette dressed at TD Garden but did not enter the game, fulfilling the rare emergency backup role the night after his NCAA season ended.
- Alex Nedeljkovic started for the Sharks, stopping 38 of 40 shots in a 4-2 victory that ended the Bruins' 13-game winning streak.
- With his college eligibility complete, Chauvette is now free to pursue a professional contract after a four-year NCAA career that included five shutouts this season for UNH.
- The Sharks recalled Laurent Brossoit from AHL San Jose to restore two healthy goalies on the active roster as Askarov remains out with an undisclosed issue.
