Sam Lafferty scored two short-handed goals 2:08 apart and added an assist as the visiting Chicago Blackhawks rallied to earn their first victory of the season, beating the winless San Jose Sharks 5-2 Saturday.

Down 2-0 in the second, the Blackhawks potted three goals in a span of 3:14 to complete the comeback and move ahead. Their first triumph featured five unanswered tallies.

In his Chicago debut, Jason Dickinson fired in a goal and handed out two assists, Taylor Raddysh found the net and had an assist and Jonathan Toews scored. Tyler Johnson had two helpers, and Petr Mrazek stopped 24 of 26 shots.

San Jose's Erik Karlsson notched a goal and an assist, and Nico Sturm netted his first marker for his new team. In his second start like Mrazek, Kaapo Kahkonen yielded five goals on 25 shots.

After honoring former San Jose captain and general manager Doug Wilson in a pregame ceremony with a banner to the rafters, the Pacific Division club scored off Karlsson's feed on a cross-ice pass to Sturm, who netted his first marker as a Shark at 13:58.

Good pressure from the home side inside the period's last minute led to a 2-0 lead at the break, when Karlsson sent a long shot from the blue line wide of Mrazek.

In the decisive second period, Johnson managed to keep a puck in the offensive zone and fired a lateral pass to Toews. The captain skated in on Kahkonen and beat the Finnish goalie with a backhander at 7:21 for his second goal.

The visitors took their first lead with a pair of short-handed goals that shocked the Sharks.

On the penalty kill just 66 seconds after Toews' tally, Lafferty put in a rebound of Dickinson's shot for his first goal. Lafferty added another shorty a little more than two minutes later for a 3-2 advantage at 10:35.

In the third, a blocked shot by Johnson led to a breakaway that Raddysh finished for his first goal at 5:08 for a 4-2 lead. Dickinson's first marker at 9:37 rounded out the scoring.
