William Eklund and Tyler Toffoli each had a goal and two assists as the visiting San Jose Sharks snapped Detroit’s seven-game winning streak with a 6-3 victory over the Red Wings on Tuesday.

Nico Sturm, Jan Rutta, Mikael Granlund and Mario Ferraro had the other goals for San Jose, which snapped a three-game losing streak. The Sharks won for just the fourth time in the last 18 games. Alexandar Georgiev made 25 saves.

Vladimir Tarasenko, who had gone without a goal since Dec. 1, scored twice for Detroit. Lucas Raymond had the other goal, and netminder Ville Husso made 18 saves.

Detroit had a 12-6 shot advantage in the first period but wound up facing a two-goal deficit.

San Jose grabbed the early lead at 1:45. Rutta scored his second goal of the season, beating Husso with a wrister on the stick side off a feed from Will Smith.

With a penalty against Ferraro close to expiring, the Sharks notched a shorthanded goal to make it 2-0 with 2:19 left in the period. A nifty pass from Eklund set up Sturm’s breakaway goal.

Tarasenko ended an 18-game goalless drought by scoring at 1:28 of the second period. Simon Edvinsson tossed the puck toward the Sharks net, and it deflected off the goalpost and onto Tarasenko’s stick. Tarasenko’s shot beat Georgiev on the glove side.

The Sharks pushed the lead to two goals again 26 seconds into the third. Macklin Celebrini passed the puck from behind the Wings’ net to a cutting Eklund, who slipped behind Detroit’s defense.

The Red Wings made it a one-goal game at 6:05 of the third. Erik Gustafsson intentionally shot the puck from the point off the boards, and Tarasenko fired in the rebound.

Granlund made it 4-2 during San Jose’s first power play at 7:43. He scored in front with a top-shelf backhander.

Raymond pulled Detroit within a goal again midway through the period after Dylan Larkin won a faceoff.

A minute later, Toffoli scored in front to nudge San Jose’s advantage to two goals again.
