Sharks edge Vegas in OT

In San Jose, Aaron Dell made 37 saves, none bigger than a save late in overtime to help the Sharks down the Vegas Golden Knights, 2-1.

Logan Couture took the puck after the save and scored the winner with 1:40 left in the extra session.

“Good save by [Dell],” Couture said. “[Vlasic] made a great play just bumping it up, had a breakaway, spent two seconds trying to settle the puck down and couldn’t get it settled. Shot it and was able to bang home the rebound that sat there.”

Brayden McNabb scored in the third period to push the game to extra time.

The Knights were screless in three power plays.

“We were a little too much on the outside there,” Golden Knights forward Paul Stastny said. “When you’re scoring sometimes and you get comfortable, you try to get cute. When we’re successful on the power play, we’re playing downhill. We get the puck, attack with it, put shots on net. They did a good job taking the lanes away, and that’s what we’re trying to find.”

Timo Meier gave the Sharks a 1-0 lead in regulation.

“We wanted to be better,” Couture said. “We didn’t have a good effort [against the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday]. We weren’t hard enough. We weren’t ourselves. Tonight we played a little bit more like our game.”

Marc-Andre Fleury made 27 saves in the loss.

“We played pretty good,” Fleury said. “We’re at home. We’re playing against them, too, so we always want to beat them, but at least we battled back to get that point.”
