Sharks got goals from Desjardins, Vlasic and Burns to beat the Blues in OT 3-2. Sharks took no penalties, and got the game winner on the PP.
With an assist tonight, Thornton now tied at 22nd with Phil Esposito for career assists.
First period was a bit of a cagey testing the opposition (it was more than a YEAR between games). Sharks scored first, then the Blues came back to take the lead. But the Sharks notched a last minute goal to tie it, and another last minute goal to win in OT.
Two more meetings against the Blues this season.
