It's time for the Sharks Instant Replay of an incredibly exciting victory for San Jose Sharks Hockey. The final score in this contest reads as follows. The San Jose Sharks 3 and the Nashville Predators 2.
1:00Biggest game of the year after that first period in which there was no scoring. And there were no penalties. The Sharks did get on the power play. When Steven Stamco's heavily boarded Shakir Mukum Abdulman headfirst into the boards. Fortunately, he was all right as he picked up and got together one of his best games of the year. That was at 754 of the second period. The Sharks came into this game, one for their three previous 13 on the power play. But they would convert in this one opportunity they would get at 953. Here comes Eclan across the line, passes block, trailing the play. Sherwood guns it around, Mises got it, feeds behind the net, time winding down on the penalty. As Sherwood goes back to the point, Orlock slides it over to the far side. Turner Sharks actually called for that, got it back to Orlock, who shoots block, Eclan, now the shot by Turner Sharks. And somehow it goes in, they score. Chertishop was falling down, and it slips by Adam and the Sharks, leaded one nothing. Wow, what a play that was. Chertishop had a remarkable game
2:01with Set-Abrini in Smith today, picked up his eighth gold of a season from Eclan and Mises. That went a power play gold at 953 of the second frame, and the Sharks had the one nothing lead, and that's how the second period ended. But the Predators would come back, and they would get on the board a little bit later, yet the Sharks would take the two nothing lead at 304 of the third period on a play, scored by McLean Set-Abrini. Off the face-off, Set-Abrini couldn't get it. Howler wins the draw, but Smith steals the puck away and pokes it ahead. Moving in, Chertishop, two on one, Set-Abrini shoots, he scores! McLean Set-Abrini, from Egor Chertishop, and Will Smith, and the Sharks are up to nothing, what a go. That was a spectacular play by Will Smith to get that started, and he had the presence of mine to slide the puck over to Egor Chertishop, and this guy's got ice in his veins when he's got the puck on his stick, made the right play to Set-Abrini, and he buried it. Yeah, a real heads-up play all around, the tracking by Will Smith, stealing the puck, and then a real clever saucer,
3:01backhand saucer to Chertishop, and that Chertishop does the rest. He opens up, looks like he's going to shoot it, freezes the goal tender, and then slides it over to McLean, all he has to do is wire it to the far side for a huge goal at that moment. It was two nothing sharks, in the third period, and you knew the predators were going to push as hard as they could, time of that goal, 304, Set-Abrini's 43rd of the season from Chertishop and Smith. But then Mario Ferraro got a penalty that he did not like, in a play against Steven Stamcoes in the corner, Ferraro drew a holding call much to his chagrin. He thought that Stamcoes sold it and sold it way at 351. Right there was where the predators could get right back into the game, but right there, is where Alex Nidelkovich came up big. March is so, exchanging passes, cuts across the line, dishes to Forrestburg, turns off a check, nice pass back to Yosey, behind the back pass to Forrestburg, walks down to the right circle, feeds in the front, there's O'Reilly turning, shooting, saved by Nidelkovich. O'Reilly was inside the circle, heading to the front of an edit,
4:01the edge of the crease, and Nidelkovich held his ground. Alex Nidelkovich had to make some pretty big saves tonight, and that was one of them, and it kept the score two nothing, San Jose. Nashville would finally break the seal late in the third period, as a young Luke Evangelista, at 1538, would get credit for his eleventh of the season. Oh, here's a headman team Evangelista behind the defense shoots and scores. Sharks get caught on that plane, Evangelista, coming down the right wing side, cuts into the shark zone, and puts it up top off the barn into the net, to put the predators on the board, with 421 to play, and Nashville making a statement that this game is not over. That's for sure. Perbix, who fed the puck up, got the number one assist, Ryan Uffko, the other defenseman assisted, on Luke Evangelista's eleventh of the season, to make it two to one. Then the net got pulled, and it was on the predator's bench, and the San Jose Sharks would take a three-to-one lead, with Matthon Setabrini finally
5:02getting the puck, and depositing it into the empty goal. O'Reilly, great effort, he's won into now by the check from Ferraro, Pope to the slot, knocked away by Deharnet, coming out of his own, it's Wendberg, empty net, three on one, lead pass, setabrini let it go, gets it back, shoot star! Matthon Setabrini gets it from Cowdengrap and finishes it off, and empty net goal for Setabrini to make a three-one shark's for Setabrini, his 44th goal of the season, and his 112th point of the year. He's only two points behind Joel Thornton's all-time San Jose Sharks record for most points in a season, Matthon Setabrini getting that empty netter, and San Jose thought that they would be able to cruise to victory, but maybe they didn't think too long, because the predators are as desperate as any team in the NHL, and they would get a second goal in the game, with the extra attack around there. Evangelista, bodied up by Orblanc, but the puck skips free, far side play, put to the point. Now it's off-code, that has it. Carries down the wing, shoots toward the net, save a star!
6:03Up-code sent that to the goal, and Evangelista's in front of a net, causing traffic might have chipped that, and all of a sudden it's 3-2, and that goal by Matthon Setabrini looks mighty important right now. Well, that was quite a goal, Luke Evangelista's second of the game, 12th of the season, from Ryan Ofco and Roman Yosey to make it 3-2, with the extra skate around for Nashville at 1850 of the third. Nashville would push as hard as they could, but this time, the sharks were kept saying no, and they kept posing the door, and the final call certainly showed that. 20 seconds left. Predators get it out to the point. Shot to the net, stick save made by the Delkovich. Rebound, Deharnay lifting the stick, but oh, why they gets it back. Far set of the ice, centering play, Setabrini broke it up, could be trouble here, kept in by Nashville, a bouncer goes to the corner. Five seconds left of the game, a centering attempt by Nashville, blocked there by Ferrero, sends it up the boards to grab its out of the zone, and a final sound
7:03of the horn goes off as the sharks have hung on to win it. Three-two over the Nashville Predators in the biggest game of the year. What a moment for the sharks. They win in regulation. Three-two over the Nashville Predators, and a 15-game winless streak in the series. The longest such streak in the active range in the NHL is over. In fact, the Predators were 17-0 and 1 in their last 18 games against the sharks, because that one win 16 games ago was a shootout. This one was regulation all the way, and so the longest active win and point streaks against the opponent came to an end for Nashville, and not a moment too soon for Sharks Hockey. Final score, San Jose 3 and Nashville 2. While we're hearing some rumblings down in the shark's dressing room and a man who made a wonderful play and picked up a very important assist on the second goal, Will Smith is going to join us, and he is with Jamal. What was the heck of an effort by you guys? It seemed like right from the beginning, you guys were ready to play a desperate type of game and lay it all on the
8:03line. Yeah, it was a good w. You know, we needed that, and they got us a couple of times during the year, so we want to make sure we had an answer. And what can you say about the Delkovic and the effort that he put forward? Yeah, he was unbelievable for us. He's been great all year, and he had a great game there. And a nice play by you, obviously, the second goal, a massive goal where you steal the puck at the blue line, and it was difficult because he had little space to play with, so you had to loft it to create that space to, so it wasn't offside, you know, talk about that play there and how you guys were able to capitalize again. Yeah, it was a good play. I'm start just getting back on defense, and then a little strip of the puck, and I saw a journey kind of driving through, and they did the rest. And what can you say about Luca Kenyoni's coming in, and in a difficult environment, and the young guy played extremely well, would you think of his game? Yeah, we knew he would be great. We've seen him before, so we're not shocked, and yeah, he's great for us. I'll congrats on the huge win. Thanks. That is our
9:03Shark's instant replay. This has been a presentation of the San Jose Shark's Audio Network.
