EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) James Reimer made 31 saves in his first shutout of the season, Logan Couture scored twice and the San Jose Sharks beat the Edmonton Oilers 3-0 on Tuesday night.

Joe Pavelski also scored for the Sharks, who won their second in a row. They've now won five of their last six and have gone 19-5-4 since Jan. 9.

Cam Talbot stopped 19 shots for Edmonton, which had won four of its previous five games.

The Sharks started the scoring just 1:33 into the game when a puck bounced around before landing between the legs of Talbot, who spun around in vain trying to find it before Couture swatted it into the net.
