San Diego, Calif. \u2014 The San Jose Barracuda<\/a> (39-19-11-1) earned a 3\u20132 shootout victory over the San Diego Gulls<\/a> (14-9-6-2) on Wednesday night at Pechanga Arena San Diego.<\/p>\n

Colin White<\/a> led the way with two goals in regulation and later scored in the shootout, while Cam Lund<\/a> netted the decisive tally to secure the extra point for San Jose. Goaltender Jakub Skarek<\/a> was sharp, stopping 26 of 28 shots through 65 minutes and several more in the shootout.<\/p>\n

The Barracuda opened the scoring at 4:54 of the first period when White (7) finished a feed from Filip Bystedt<\/a>. San Jose carried a 1\u20130 lead into the first intermission after matching San Diego with 10 shots apiece.<\/p>\n

The Gulls answered early in the second period, tying the game at 4:08 when Yegor Sidorov<\/a> (7) beat Skarek stick side after the puck popped free to him along the left side. Despite several power-play opportunities on both sides, the score remained knotted at 1\u20131 heading into the third.<\/p>\n

In the third, the Gulls drew a five-minute major when Jake Furlong<\/a> was assessed a spearing penalty against Sasha Pastujov<\/a> at 2:21, but San Diego managed just one shot on the advantage. Back at full strength, White (8) struck again at 14:53 of the final frame, banging in a rebound to give the Barracuda a 2\u20131 lead. San Diego pulled even late, however, as Matthew Phillips<\/a> (8) scored at 19:05 with the net empty to force overtime.<\/p>\n

Despite outshooting the Gulls 5\u20131 in the extra session and having an abbreviated power play, the Barracuda could not solve Calle Clang<\/a> in overtime. After a back-and-forth series of shootout attempts, Lund buried the game-winner in the seventh round, and Skarek shut the door on San Diego\u2019s final chance to seal the 3\u20132 victory.<\/p>\n

San Jose outshot the Gulls 31\u201328 and went 1-for-2 on the power play, while San Diego finished 0-for-3.<\/p>\n

The Barracuda return home on Saturday, Jan. 10 for Throwback Night<\/a> which will feature a pregame Roy Sommer<\/a> banner raising ceremony at 5:15 p.m. and a replica banner giveaway for the first 2,500.
