Sharks' Martin Jones: Stops 24 to propel Sharks to Stanley Cup Finals

Jones saved 24 of 26 Blues shots to propel the Sharks to the Stanley Cup Finals with a 5-2 victory over the Blues on Wednesday.

Analysis:

The Sharks attempted just one more shot on goal, yet were in control throughout the contest thanks to Jones' superior performance in net. He didn't concede a goal until San Jose held a 4-0 third period lead, and has to rate among the top reasons for the team advancing considering he recorded back-to-back shutouts in Games 2 and 3. St. Louis often found it difficult to generate shots in this series, but the winner of Thursday's Game 7 in Pittsburgh will be unlikely to have that problem.
