Overtime goal sinks San Jose Sharks as homestand comes to an end

"Bo Horvat took a pass from Matthew Schaefer, sped past Sharks defenseman Sam Dickinson, and beat goalie Yaroslav Askarov for his 37th goal of the season. With the overtime loss, the Sharks finish their six-game homestand with a 3-1-2 record. They start a five-game road trip on Tuesday in Buffalo."

"Calum Ritchie carried the puck into the Sharks' zone, curled, and found a trailing Tony DeAngelo, who skated to his right and put a wrist shot on net that Askarov couldn't handle with his glove as the Islanders took a 1-0 lead."

"John Klingberg controlled a puck that had been sent around the boards and fed Will Smith near the goal line to the right of the Islanders' net. Celebrini, having created some time and space for himself, took a pass from Smith and fired a shot past Islanders goalie Ilya Sorokin for his 32nd goal of the season."
