After falling behind 2-0 to the Los Angeles Kings, the San Jose Sharks climbed out of the two-goal deficit, but it was the Kings who came away with a 3-2 win in overtime.
Don’t let the record fool you; the Kings came onto the ice ready to play as they generated 15 shots in all situations during the opening period. One of these shots would beat Martin Jones as Ilya Kovalchuk scored on a one-timer in his return from injury. Nonetheless, despite being out shot 15 to 8 by the Kings, the Sharks were able to generate 12 scoring chances, but Jonathan Quick shut the door on each one.
