Martin Jones shining brightest after playoff losses

Martin Jones isn't playing like a rookie. And he isn't letting the gravity of the Stanley Cup Playoffs affect him.

The San Jose Sharks' No. 1 goalie turned in another stellar performance Tuesday, stopping all 26 shots he faced in Game 2 against the St. Louis Blues, a 4-0 win. It was his ninth victory of the spring, and his second shutout.

Jones has been nothing short of incredible coming off a loss in the postseason. Considering the hole the Sharks would have been in had they fallen behind 2-0 to the Blues, losing two straight on the road, his play is all the more impressive.

Martin Jones is now 3-1 (two shutouts) with 113 saves on 119 shots faced (.950 SV%) following a loss this postseason. That'll do. #SJSharks

His other shutout came in Game 7 against the Nashville Predators in the second round. No big deal.
