Macklin Celebrini scored at the 3:47 mark of overtime to give the San Jose Sharks a thrilling 6-5 win over the Minnesota Wild on Sunday at Grand Casino Arena.
The Sharks held a 5-3 lead after a third-period goal by Tyler Toffoli at the 7:52 mark of the third period, but allowed goals to Zeev Buium and Joel Eriksson Ek as the Minnesota Wild forced overtime.
In overtime, the Sharks trio of William Eklund, Alexander Wennberg, and Timothy Liljegren could not get off the ice as the Wild controlled play and changed their skaters multiple times. But Eklund was able to get off, Celebrini came on, and beat Minnesota goalie Jesper Wallstedt for his sixth goal of the season.
Tyler Toffoli’s power play goal at the 7:52 mark gave the Sharks a two-goal lead.
With the Sharks leading 4-3, Celebrini took a pass from Eklund — before he skated behind the Wild net – and fed Toffoli in front for a one-timer that beat Wallstedt for his third goal of the season.
Eklund scored twice in the win for a three-point game, and Michael Misa and Ryan Reaves each added one as the Sharks won for the second time in three games and finished their road trip with a 2-2-0 record.
Misa’s goal, the first of his NHL career, came at the 13:35 mark of the first period, and Reaves scored his second of the year at the 11:34 mark of the second, just 19 seconds after Eklund’s goal gave the Sharks a 3-2 lead.
