Couture playing through pain, giving Sharks emotional lift

The Oilers tied up the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs as the Sharks were shut out 2-0 in a Game 2 loss.

EDMONTON – There are always doctors and dentists on duty at NHL games. These days, they are likely paying a little more attention to one player than any other.

Logan Couture revealed after Tuesday’s 7-0 Sharks in in Game 4 that after getting hit up high by Edmonton’s Connor McDavid, he had to get a little procedure done between periods.

“They just had to put some numbing into my face,” he said.
