"Shakir Mukhamadullin scored the go-ahead goal at the 9:27 mark of the third period to help lift the San Jose Sharks to a badly needed and entertaining 5-4 win over the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday before a sold-out crowd of 17,435 at SAP Center. Trailing a rush up the ice, Mukhamadullin took a pass from William Eklund and fired a wrist shot past Oilers goalie Connor Ingram for his fourth goal of the season."
"The Sharks led 3-1 after a fast-paced and loosely played first period. Celebrini and Misa scored goals 3:33 apart, with Misa's goal, his third of the season, giving the Sharks a 2-0 lead at the 11:07 mark of the first period. The Oilers got one goal back with 5:09 left in the first period, as Leon Draisaitl, set up in the slot, one-timed a pass from Connor McDavid past Askarov."
"The Sharks led by two before allowing an Evan Bouchard goal with 4:11 left in the second period. With the Oilers pressing, the Sharks lost sight of Bouchard—the top-scoring defenseman in the NHL—as he took a return pass from Connor McDavid and scored on a nearly wide-open net for his 17th goal of the season."
