The Sharks have saved themselves from being down 3-0 when they beat the Penguins 3-2 in overtime in their first Stanley Cup Finals home game and their first win in the series. The Penguins struck first when Ben Lovejoy got the puck and slapped it from the point while the puck was on edge so it was dipping while it was in the air. The Sharks tied it up when Justin Braun used his amazing wrist shot from the point and it went in without Matt Murray even seeing it. Braun at this point continues to be the only offense for the Sharks. Patric Hornqvist gave the Penguins the lead when Ben Lovejoy shot in from the point and he tipped it in. Joel Ward tied it about halfway through the third period when he slapped it from the point on a 3 on 2 rush. Towards the end both teams came really close to getting the lead, but it went to over time instead. Joonas Donskoi won it with 7:42 left in the third when he got the puck behind the net and skated it to the bottom of the left circle and turned around and shot it top shelf. The Sharks were once again outshot badly, but this time it was 42-26, but Martin Jones continues to play amazingly and the Sharks this game finally supported him with offence. Game 4 is on June 6th at 8 PM ET which could be the biggest game of the series since the Penguins can take a 3-1 series lead or the Sharks can tie the series at 2. The game will be played at San Jose. Will the Sharks continue to get this offence? Can Martin Jones continue to play well? Who will take game 4? stay tuned....

I don't think Joe Ward would like the comment of someone else being the only offense for the Sharks.....
ReplyDeleteI said "at this point" meaning at that part of the game it was basically him doing all of the offense for the Sharks
