Evgeni Nabokov had the best viewpoint in the building for the fisticuffs, shoving matches and spearing penalties of the San Jose Sharks' latest fracas with their unfriendly rivals from Anaheim.

Nabokov loved the point driven home by the point of Rob Blake's stick: Although the Sharks play some of the NHL's prettiest hockey, they can also get plenty rough when necessary.

Nabokov made 31 saves in his first shutout of the season, and captain Patrick Marleau had a goal and an assist in the Sharks' 10 th win in 11 games, 2-0 over the Ducks on Thursday night.
