EDMONTON\u2013 Zach Hyman scored the game-winning goal in overtime with 3:54 left as the Edmonton Oilers came back to beat the San Jose Sharks 4-3.<\/p>\n

After a bad turnover in the neutral zone, the Oilers regained possession and scored in overtime.<\/p>\n

Collin Graf, Michael Misa, and Adam Gaudette also scored for the Sharks. Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith<\/a> each had an assist for the San Jose Sharks. Yaroslav Askarov was spectacular, making 28 saves.<\/p>\n

\u201cSix on five was obviously not good enough, and that\u2019s something we\u2019ll look at,\u201d Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky said. \u201cThere\u2019s moments in the third where we need to continue to make plays and push forward. We didn\u2019t do enough of that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Leon Draisaitl and Evan Bouchard each had a goal and two assists. Connor McDavid<\/a> had a goal and an assist for the Oilers, who came back to tie it in the third with three goals. After giving up a goal on the first two shots he faced, Connor Ingram made 17 saves.<\/p>\n

Edmonton has won three games in a row for the first time all season.<\/p>\n

Tonight was the first time<\/a> in the San Jose Sharks\u2019 franchise history that they scored three or more goals in the first period in three straight games.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought we got on pucks. Our forecheck, our pressure, something that I thought we did a pretty good job of,\u201d Warsofsky said. \u201cAgain, we control the game through the second period, even the first goal we gave up, [that shot is going wide, hits [Orlov]. So, bounces are gonna happen. We\u2019re gonna move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

Graf scored 26 seconds into the game. After he helped create a turnover at the blue line, Celebrini found Smith down low, who then fed an easy pass to Graf in front.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust surfed across. We were trying to have a strong F3 to try to limit their off the rush and good stick on puck turnover,\u201d Graf said. \u201cThen two elite plays from Mack and Smitty, and put it in an open net.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gaudette scored to make it 2-0 1:09 later. After a bad change by the Oilers, Gaudette raced in on a breakaway and went backhand on Ingram.<\/p>\n

Misa extended the Sharks\u2019 lead to 3-0. Timothy Liljegren<\/a> flipped the puck high into the neutral zone, and Misa raced in on a two-on-one. His shot rebounded right off Bouchard\u2019s skate and past Jarry.<\/p>\n

Draisaitl poked the puck in behind Askarov at 1:34 of the third period to make it a 3-1 game. Evan Bouchard\u2019s slap shot from the point was deflected and got under Askarov and behind him.<\/p>\n

With the net empty, McDavid scored at 16:54. After taking a pass in the left circle, McDavid\u2019s wrist shot beat Askarov over the blocker on the far side.<\/p>\n

Bouchard tied the game 3-3 at 19:01 with a slap shot from the point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EDMONTON\u2013 Zach Hyman scored the game-winning goal in overtime with 3:54 left as the Edmonton Oilers came back…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":156138,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[4214,3524,2070,70138,37614,1035,3259,88,90,89,98,755,76466],"class_list":{"0":"post-156137","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-jose","8":"tag-adam-gaudette","9":"tag-collin-graf","10":"tag-edmonton-oilers","11":"tag-evan-bouchard","12":"tag-leon-draisaitl","13":"tag-macklin-celebrini","14":"tag-michael-misa","15":"tag-san-jose","16":"tag-san-jose-headlines","17":"tag-san-jose-news","18":"tag-san-jose-sharks","19":"tag-sj-sharks","20":"tag-zach-hyman"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/156137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=156137"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/156137\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/156138"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=156137"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=156137"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=156137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
