NHL Highlights | Kings vs. Sharks – November 20, 2025

Sharks in the month of November. He has been dominant. Opening faceoff won by the Kings and slammed into the zone by Brandt Clark for LA. He’s been a true professional in every regard. Not only an opportunity for him as Brand Clark who has a big opportunity turns the puck over. Here come the Sharks. Ty Landry hits the trailer. Score. Adam get it. One- nothing Sharks. [Music] [Applause] [Music] And turnover at the blue line for the Kings. It just jumps over the stick of Brent Clark. He’s trying to bring it to the middle of the ice. He gets back, but that turnover just creates a threeon two. The rest of the Kings unable to get back. And what a shot by Godette. He’s allowed to get to the middle of the ice. That’s why the penalty was called. Faceoff win. Here’s Ken Bay. goes to Kusmeco in this top power play unit. Five forwards for LA. A save by Oscar. Steam behind that one. Here’s Lefer missing the top corner with a wrist shot out of the box. Here comes the Sharks on man rush. Back the other way. Ryan Reeds. Saved by Forsber. But CC recovers for the Kings. Edmonson fakes it out of the zone. Ahead for Warren Fogle. Streaks in. Fogle. Save. Ascarov. And he covers in the top of the blue paint. And then it gets kicked out and picked up by San Jose. I think everyone in the building thought Ascarov had it. It looked like it was under his glove. Found a way as the Kings recognized him. Were able to get another opportunity. Here come the Sharks and Celebrating into the zone. Celebrating wrist shot in the post. Dear shot that goes high and wide. Here is Tyler to Foley former King. William Ecklan across top of the circle. Loose in his slot. Covered by Forsber and a whistle even though it was knocked free. The Kings can change their penalty killers. Long stretch pass for Celbrini. Cuts into the zone. Waits for Clingberg. Pass broken up. Short-handed. Arma. Back the other way for LA. Ar. Second short-handed goal of the season for Joel Arma. And we are tied. Perfectly. A ton of pressure. And he keeps the pressure on first on Celibbrini who’s looking for Clingberg coming down the wall. But Arma reads this and he has Celabbrini pressuring him on the backside. Gets a quick shot off both blocker side on Ascarov upstairs. But he reads this perfectly. The little button hook up and he recognizes that Celibbrini is in trouble. A little lack of support of the Sharks bench. Shazora sends it ring wide. Graph into the zone for the Sharks. Graph walks in. Graph looking, circles the net. 10 seconds left in the paint and they score [Music] left in the first period. It’s 2-1 Sharks. Well, it close off the skate of Dandria, but the Kings are on a change and the Sharks do a good job in transition right up to Graph and he shows patience. He recognizes how much time he has left in this period and that he can hold this puck and actually make a play. And so he takes it from one side to the other and Delria does a nice job just holding his ground. And he recognized Fiala was off his left shoulder and he got there in a hurry. The Kings outshot San Jose in the first seven and a half minutes. 82. Lefarer cuts in and a save by Ascarov. Lefier with Deno and Fogle. You think about more two seasons ago, 31 goals, just three on this year. A ton of speed. He’s played good hockey, but I think if Jim Hiller can find a way to get him to explode offensively. Here comes Kopitar striking in a backhand score. Five hole in Ascarov to tie the game. and trying to build chemistry and it’s more with a beautiful feed to the neutral zone. He keeps his head up, recognizes he has time and takes it and finds the streaking Copitar with his fourth on the season. And man, does Ascarov stick just come up ever so slightly as he’s trying to block that five hole coming across. And Kopitar just finding that little space. That’s a big one for this line. tied up along the wall from the Sharks bench. Or into the zone, plays it to the wing. Gondet top of the circle. Dangles on a back hand and a save by Forsber. How about Pat Benitar, too? I mean, she was good. No, it was uh the SAP center was nice last night. Here’s a one timer and a save as who fought off another one. I think he’s helping out the young guys quite a bit. He’s uh it’s good to have him in the room for these guys. He’s got the guys tarps off now like you post game, you know, they got to do their interview. The guys are showing off a little bit, eh? Yeah. Ascarov bites the ends up. There was a goal coming. Just the wrong team. Hey, you can feel something coming. And the off wing is Fiala in ahead of the play. And here’s going to give us the best look. Does he break the plane of the blue line? Reviewing the play. It’s been turning the plane. Was offside. Therefore, Successful challenge for Ryan Warovski and the San Jose Sharks. Or on the headman pass. Gondad tries to stick handle and lost control. Here is Kurishv for San Jose. Saturday centering pass on the back door and Gondad is saved by Forsber and it gets to the Sharks and Reeds. Here’s Ferraro at the point. Ferraro through traffic and it missed the net. Dear from the boards, loses in the blue paint and the net comes off. Losing the stick in the process with Forsber. Trevor Moore scampers for the puck. The Sharks trying to get it back down low. Tipped over to Smith. Centers Kurt waits. Shore. [Music] [Applause] by the superstar Mlin Celibbrini just dumping the puck in recognizing he’s outnumbered on that far side and then it’s linemate Will Smith gets to work. Good support there by Kersev. They turn the puck over. Celibbrini comes high on the defensive side to help out. But watch the patience by Kerv when he gets this puck. Watch this. Forsber challenges him. He just waits him out. Makes a nice move on Kazenko. opens the five hole on Forsber and then watch this just but right now trailing 3-2 going to third. Well, the King the key will be for everyone to remain disciplined in this third period with such a close game. Power plays haven’t necessarily been a factor. San Jose getting an opportunity here. Smith to Celibbrini in the corner. Tries to center it for Smith. Pass intercepted by Edmonson. Sharks get it back. Centering pass. Smith dangles through the legs. Shot. Save Forsber. And the net comes off. Got to love it. But Will Smith. Come on. Wow. If that had gone in, the wizardry of the young Will Smith. One more look at it. Look how quick they are in transition off the turnover. And what a save by Forsber keeping his team in this game as the Kings find themselves down by one. 3-2 here in the third. again to Clark up high. Quick one-touch pass. Kopitar gets it back. Here’s Fial. Over to Clark. Top of the circle. One-time healed by Fion, but it’s picked up by Kopitar. Here’s Fiala again through traffic. Score. K back down low. We are tied in San Jose. The thing is here is Fiala. At first he does the big wind up to take the slap shot. It gets blocked from the San Jose Sharks. This time it’s just a quick little wister. Just get it to net. You know you’ve got Perry in front. You know you’ve got people there looking for the rebounds. And watch Kempe does a nice job of getting his stick free and not tied up by Vincent de Arne. And look at that. He’s loving it. Or holds it up and it appears we are headed to overtime. 33. Overtime at the Shark Tank. And winning possession in overtime is so key with so much space on the ice. [Applause] Here comes Celebrating. Back on the ice. Celebrating. Shot. Save. Centering pass broken up. A twoon one with time winding down. Ekan cuts in. Ekkan to the middle. Ekan trying to pass it to the back door. It’s broken up by a diving lefier. And we’re headed to a shootout. Philip Kurishv will lead it off in the shootout. Philip Kurishv Kurishv. A little bit of everything from this hockey game tonight. Watch a quick little stick handle and he waits till Foresberg just puts that left arm down. Here comes Perry and Sh in a shootout. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]

Philipp Kurashev scored in regulation, then delivered the lone goal in the shootout to lift the San Jose Sharks over the Los Angeles Kings, 4-3.

  1. The Hawks messed up bad with Philipp Kurashev. "In the 2025 offseason, Kurashev was released by the Blackhawks as a free agent after he was not tendered a qualifying offer. On 1 July, 2025, he was immediately signed to a one-year, $1.2 million contract by the San Jose Sharks for the 2025–26 season" He had a down year last year only because he was injured. For Mike Grier this was a low risk and high reward kind of move if he was healthy.

    The only downside to this move is Mike Grier needs to decide very soon to extend him or trade him. The Sharks could probably get a 2nd rounder for him.

  2. Last time the Kings visited the sharks played one of their better games and yet the Kings managed to steal one. This game was sort of a flipping of the script. Los Angeles was definitely the better team tonight. It looked like the sharks gameplan read "Yaroslav Askarov" for various stretches of regulation. This was one of Celebrini's lesser impressive games and yet he still managed to get on the scoresheet. Kurashev and Dellandrea were both great. I liked Graf's game. The penalty kill looked solid. In overtime it looked like the sharks were playing for the shootout and I don't think the Kings even had a shot on goal. Unfortunate that the two or fewer streak Askarov had going on had to come to an end but he still had a great game and was fantastic in the shootout, that stick check on Kempe was great. Onto the next
