DENVER \u2014 Joe Pavelski and Brent Burns each had a goal and three assists, Martin Jones made 31 saves and the San Jose Sharks held off the slumping Colorado Avalanche 5-4 on Wednesday night. <\/p>\n

Evander Kane, Joonas Donskoi and Lukas Radil also scored for the Sharks, who extended Colorado’s recent slide after a 9-0-2 stretch lifted the Avalanche into first place in the Central Division in early December. <\/p>\n

Tyson Jost had two goals and Matt Calvert and Tyson Barrie both scored for Colorado, which is 3-8-3 since Dec. 4. The Avalanche have dropped six in a row, two in overtime. <\/p>\n

But the Sharks didn’t need extra time to win their third in four games. <\/p>\n

San Jose led 2-1 after the first period on power-play goals by Pavelski and Burns. <\/p>\n

Burns’ goal on a 5-on-3 advantage gave the Sharks a lead they quickly expanded in the second. <\/p>\n

Kane scored his 12th of the season 4:15 into the period when he stole the puck from Barrie and beat goalie Philipp Grubauer high. Donskoi made it 4-1 when he stuffed the puck inside the post on a wraparound 2:15 after Kane’s goal. <\/p>\n

Pavel Francouz took over for Grubauer, who finished with 10 saves. Francouz made 12. Radil scored on Francouz to make it 5-1 at 16:33 of the second. Jost answered 16 seconds later to get Colorado back within three. Barrie made it a two-goal game with his fifth at 12:12 of the third, and Jost’s redirect at 16:36 got the Avalanche within a goal. <\/p>\n

Colorado pulled Francouz for an extra skater at 18:16 but couldn’t get one past Jones. <\/p>\n

NOTES: Avalanche G Semyon Varlamov was out with a lower-body injury. … Barrie’s goal was the 275th point of his career, tying John-Michael Liles for most by an Avalanche defenseman. … San Jose D Justin Braun played just one shift after the first period due to an undisclosed injury. … The Sharks had three players selected All-Stars earlier in the day: Pavelski, Burns and defenseman Erik Karlsson. Colorado RW Mikko Rantanen also was honored. … Kane has three goals in his last three games against Grubauer. <\/p>\n
