The Sharks and Golden Knights saved their most entertaining bout for Game 7 in San Jose Tuesday night. The game featured some controversy, an insane comeback, and overtime.
San Jose was down 3-1 in the series and forced a Game 7. In the final game of the series, they were down 3-0 in the 3rd, but scored 4 goals on a 5-minutes power play to take the lead. Vegas tied it with under a minute to go and San Jose won it in the extra frame.
That description of the game truly doesn't do justice to how crazy a comeback it was for the Sharks, but this win probability chart might just do the trick. The power play was the turning point for the Sharks and while it was incredibly controversial, San Jose never gave up and neither did Vegas. Both teams had their chances to end it, but the Sharks ultimately got the job done and are moving on to face the Avalanche in the second round. (H/T: /r/hockey)
