"Macklin Celebrini scored at the 2:52 mark of overtime to complete his third career hat trick to give the San Jose Sharks a 3-2 win over the Utah Mammoth on Tuesday at SAP Center. Handling the puck near the blue line and with the Sharks on a power play, Celebrini fired the puck past Utah goalie Vitek Vanecek for his 13th goal of the season."
"Askarov had 14 saves in the first two periods and 10 more in the third, but a shot by Peterka from 40 feet away got between the goalie's upper body and left arm to tie the game 2-2. Coming into Tuesday, Askarov has been the NHL's best goalie over the past two weeks with a .965 save percentage and a 4-1-0 record in his last five games."
"After Peterka scored at the 9:25 mark of the third period to cut the Sharks' lead to 2-1, the Mammoth thought they had tied the game with 6:22 left in regulation. But it was ruled on the ice that the Mammoth had interfered with Askarov, a call that was upheld after a coach's challenge by Utah. The Sharks were coming off a 1-2-0 road trip that finished with losses to the Calgary Flames and Seattle Kraken, and they didn't score a 5-on-5 goal in any of the three games."
Macklin Celebrini scored at 2:52 of overtime for his third career hat trick, giving the San Jose Sharks a 3-2 win over the Utah Mammoth. Celebrini had even-strength goals at 1:47 and 5:58 of the first period for his 11th and 12th goals, then finished the power-play winner for his 13th. The Sharks led by two before JJ Peterka scored twice in the third, including the tying goal with 2:51 left. Goalie Kaapo Askarov made 34 saves and posted a .965 save percentage over five games without a shutout. A potential Mammoth tying goal with 6:22 remaining was overturned after an interference call on Askarov was upheld on challenge.
