The intense action had already started in the first period, as in the 16th minute, Sharks forward Oskar Lindblom scored the first goal of the match. But the equalizer was scored by the Hurricanes’ Calvin de Haan just two minutes after the first goal. The first period ended 1-1, and the score remained the same until the end of the second period as both goaltenders were just too good for the wingers.

The third period started with Sebastian Aho’s goal in the 41st minute of the game. This goal was enough to trigger the Sharks, as they went on to score after that. Sharks’ center Nick Bonino scored an equalizer for his team in the 47th minute. The third goal for the Sharks was scored by Michael Eyssimont, and in the heat, he also assisted Mario Ferraro, who scored the fourth goal for the Sharks in the 59th minute. The pressure rose for the Hurricanes as they were losing 2-4, and there was just a minute left until the referee’s signal.

In the 59th minute, both Sebastian Aho and Martin Necas scored, proving how intense an NHL game can get. The game went to overtime, and Necas scored again in the 61st minute. The score settled at 5-4, and the Hurricanes won the match in style.
