"Michael Misa scored at the 1:40 mark of overtime to lift the San Jose Sharks to a 2-1 win over the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday before a sellout crowd of 17,435 at SAP Center. On the goal, Misa took a drop pass from William Eklund, skated into the Jets' zone, fought off a check from defenseman Haydn Fleury, and beat goalie Connor Hellebuyck for his fourth goal of the season."
"The Sharks had trouble establishing any forecheck in the second period when they managed just five shots on net. The Jets did an effective job of taking away time and space in the neutral zone, and whenever they had breakdowns, Hellebuyck was there with 18 saves in the first 40 minutes."
"Graf took a long pass from Celebrini, carried the puck toward the Jets' net on a Sharks 2-on-1 with Smith, and fired a shot that was stopped by Hellebuyck. The rebound, though, came right to Smith, who directed it into the Jets' net to tie the game 1-1 with 18:13 left in regulation time."
