NEW YORK — Brady Skjei used overtime to atone for an earlier mistake and give Rangers coach David Quinn his first NHL victory.
Skjei buried a wrist shot 37 seconds into overtime to lift New York over the Sharks 3-2 on Thursday night.

“With three-on-three and his skating he’s going to be a threat,” Quinn said of Skjei. “It was a heck of a goal, that’s for sure.”
Marcus Sorensen beat Skjei on his way to a short-handed goal for San Jose in the first period. Sorenson worked around Skjei with a nifty move and snapped a shot past Henrik Lundqvist’s glove at 4:31.
