Vlasic was a late scratch (injury or illness — read between the lines).
Sharks did miss Pickles. But after giving up a goal in the first, two more in the second, they came back to tie the game early in the third. But they could only match one of the two more the Canes scored.
Couture notched his first against the Hurricanes. Hertl notched two.
