[Applause] opening face off just moments away the Flames get off to a good start as they win the opening face off and they send it right back to him there's the whistle we've got it offside lots of time left in this period we've still got zeros on the board and with the two centers tangled up the Winger skates away with it slides it over to sany and we'll get a face off after the offside call [Applause] gadr won the draw center Shot San Jose's got control of it now from their own end the Sharks move the puck in the defensive Zone shot denies up on the play here in the corner he grabs the puck and the puck skips out of the Zone they'll be forced to tag up Tak it along the wall by Neer Meer moves it quickly over to goodro fires it and that goes off a stick somewhere in traffic grabs the puck in the defensive zone now a quick pass to goodro San Jose's got the puck along the wall and that's knocked away and now they look to make something happen from the neutral zone cuts to the front oh and somehow he gets a sliver of it and keeps him up G slop shot from the point we got a whistle penalty coming up Dad's called for tripping he's off to the Box San Jose's man Advantage unit will take to the ice for the first time tonight an opportunity here to go up by one on the power play you know they've worked on this in practice it's something you do your repetitions this is what prepares you to be big in these moments grabs control of it at the point BS looks around slides the puck down low takes the feet at the back end and he takes the dish and that one's turned aside they're like a swarm of bees out here with this pressure oh safe along the wall another feed shot stor well putting the special in special teams it's a power play tally well it's all about specialty teams and it often makes a difference and right now there was pass execution and they found a way to attack the net San Jose's drawn First Blood here in this one by getting on the board first well that's exactly what you want to do you want to play with the lead not behind it James and now it's what they do next they've created some energy for themselves now it's about continuing to attack and find the back of the net again he grabs the puck here at the point can't get it to go looks like we got a penalty coming up here quick whistle stops the play well this is a critical juncture of the game you've got the one goal lead and now you take a penalty the PK unit has to be the task and kill this off a chance to capitalize here on the power play well a timely power play at this juncture of the game James to even it up this is huge for this power play your big stars they need to shine the Sharks will play it in their own end trying to clear off his teammate and that stays in at the line that's flaring miscommunication right there he thought he had an open Lane and at score they tied it up opportunity knocking and they take advantage on the power play well you spend so much time in practice working on it because you want to have different layers to throw off the PK units and I thought they did a real effective job reading what they were giving and then they were able to bury it still Lots the time left here in this Frame the next goal could be a big one as we are tied Calgary is going to start off with the puck here in the neutral zone after winning that faceof San Jose's got a hold of the puck now Calgary is looking to break out of their own end some good stick work to force that turnover takes the puck into the corner of the offensive in Puck grabbed by [Applause] sanski moves round along the half wall Wicked blast oh and he stops that one that was oh he put it just slide as it hits the outside of the post what a stop right there they are swarming around like bees here in the ozone makes the save they are really putting on the heat of the ozone and there's a little physicality there's a hit on the plan and they finally clear the zone and here they go the other way and he gets a piece of that one and denies it San Jose's got a hold of it against the wall good heads up play in the defensive Zone and the deadlock is broken as they take the lead well that's a huge shift and you can see everyone standing up on the bench they know how much it means but it's the next shift that matters most now James you want to kind of push and put pressure on your opponent when they're down the shark sees the moment and grabed that all important go-ahead goal up by one here in the back half of the first well this is an earned lead James is that they've been first on the puck they've been quick to it they dominated in terms of shots on that oh there's a stoage that painted glass got cracked after that heavy heavy shot it's all about safety first here James and they're going to make sure that they replace that pain you know if it's sped if it's cracked and another shot comes or a big hit that'll send it through to the fans here's a shot oh tremendous stop on the play [Applause] here in the late going of the frame San Jose's got the momentum with a one-goal lead they'd love to add to that goodro gained possession and his great work inside the faceoff Circle pays off again from the point looks to make something happen who's the puck and that slides right out to set pokes the puck away nice Zone entry from the middle takes the puck at the point lets it go great defensive effort to step in and block it San Jose's got it in the neutral zone here's a shot too much congestion in front on the attack along the boards oh love the defensive stick work there to poke that one away San Jose's got a hold of the puck and we got it offside with a face off looming the Sharks wanted to put a lot of pucks on Ned going into this one and they have delivered on that leading late in the first oh and he takes possession of the puck from off the wing with the centers all locked up there off the draw slides the puck across tudo P it on first 20 minutes of play is in the books both teams get a chance to refresh and reset and we'll be back with second period action in no time [Applause] well let's see what period two has in store for us as they are about to drop the puck the second stanza is underway as the puck is dropped let's go well we've seen a pretty good sample size already played thus far Cheryl your assessment Calgary's had a slow start to this game James they're going to have to pick it up in terms of possession time for giving their opponent way too many opportunities and a lot of time with the pocket here's a chance makes a stop with the blocker Calgary's got a hold of it along the wall packed at he's got it in the corner the flanks playing along the Blue Line grabs the puck and the play continues the shark scoop it up along the boards and he coughs it up with the pass Calgary's working hard in all areas of the ice defense is structured it needs to happen in all three zones when you're talking about stick is in doing a great job of taking away passes and it's broken up by a nice defensive use of the stick beautiful read in the defensive and by good R carrying the puck deep inside his own end takes the feed and down he goes as the puck goes free steps inside here's the pass hammmer the shot scores and we are tied new game here pounder oh yeah it's a new game James but I really like the push back to get the equalizer and now it's what they do with that momentum this next shift it's critical getting closer to the halfway point of this Frame we are all tied up in this one they take possession as he locks him up off the face off hre's playing it from the side oh and he missfires on that San Jose's got the puck through the neutrals all end to the offensive end can't keep a hold of it as he's jostled off the puck and now he passes up to pack daddy here's a race for the loose Puck the sharks have it now score let's go [Music] Calgary's gone up by one here in the second period And I like that jump in their step we're starting to see here now really seen an uptick in their momentum in the last few shifts and they're rewarded with that goal James they've got to continue to attack the net ski downhill and not be afraid to get to the paint big stop by the goenda right in front this is the fantastic save James he's all over it what I mean by that is he knows exactly where it is and where it's moving a reason why he can get square to it and make the save SL the puck over to control moves it to the middle Calgary's looking to break out centering in front and that's deflected off someone in [Applause] front past the Midway Mark in this period Calgary's got a one-goal lead San Jose's won the defensive Zone draw pack atad he's on the attack in the offensive zone here's a shot and that goes off a stick quick feed down low back to the Blue Line quick shot there's a shot and he takes that one right in the midsection San has put up a lot of shots and so far plenty of scoring chances and yet they still Trail here in the second Calgary's won the draw inside the offensive zone now let's see what they can do with it and we'll get the whistle after the golender hangs on teams are ready to go and we're about moments away from puck drop goodr won the draw there on the attack good rose got the puck in his own Zone return pass quick shot blocked in traffic quick pass over to pack daddy scor that's three in a row oh it's so much easier when you're running in the game and your opponent is chasing and that's exactly what's happening right now although this is unlucky bounce for the golender James it's one want fact these are the types of goals that can be deflating for a team it's a scramble in front golender can't find and guess what it's in the back of the cage Calgary's won the draw in the neutral zone turns the puck over great read defensively there there's a great save on an excellent chance there moves it ahead from off the wall poked away in the neutral zone San Jose's got the puck in their own end the Sharks played along the wing and that's a great heads up play by goodro oh we got a piece of it to keep it out San Jose's got it near the point the Sharks play it along the boards a game of inches and he puts it off the outside of the post San Jose has been working hard all game a reason why they're still in it and they had an opportunity to cut the deficit but goes off the pipe and out the sharks have had their chances but they still Trail late in the second Puck has dropped and we are back underway broken up with the stick in the defensive end that one's tipped and he gets his glow on the changing shot here's the chance does it again with the stop he's out battling his opponent right now he is so dialed in he's tracking the puck theyve got a two on one dishes It Off and that brings the second period to an end both teams will go back to their rooms and get a quick breather while man there's a lot of fans looking forward to this intermission action coming up here fun entertainment in store and we've got the third period coming up in moments and we are just moments away from the start of the third period and this one's underway here in the third cherl 40 minutes in the books now played how do you view this one the Flames are heading this game in the third period James but the question is for how long I mean the transition and the Counterattack happens so fast Benders are left hung out to dry this game is all about offense looks like there's a delayed penalty being called here by the officials the flanks have been handed to for [Music] interference I love the 131 set on the power play unit they used earlier listen they had success they scored but there's so many variations off of it I love the bumper position that can act as a decoy allow the puck to get through to create those seams and open up those shot attack Lans denied that one that's a great save as he drops into the butterfly you want to make sure that you take away the top of the net but you know you got the lower net covered and the agility to be able to move across the crease is an example right there and he's going to cover up the puck and get a whistle that's a great read by the go tender to hold on James they were under siege in their own zone now they have an opportunity to reset refocus and get back on their horse good R gliding in for the face off as this penalty kill will continue slides in off the wing after the centerman tied him up oh and what a save as he gets that one too I'm not sure where the defense is but I'll tell you what the goenda made a flurry of saves to keep his team in this one the cing feam oh scores and the power play comes up piging in I love the various options that they have on their power play James once the PK adjusts to one they hit the other San Jose's trailing early in this third period despite leading in the shot department now they got a finish good rose won the draw here in the open ice and they cough it up at Setter HP knock loose after that hit Calgary's gain possession and he was locked in on that save as play continues that's a fantastic save by the golender but his team has to do a better job of protecting the middle of the ice those High danger scoring chances eventually go in here's a short pass scores and that's three it's a hattick here on the road well old hat for him in a way because it's a businesslike approach as he's on the road he just says yeah just bring it I mean gets a hatti to boot the flanks take control of the face off along the half wall with the puck and he slides it quickly to datsu and that cars off a body in traffic and now he moves it quickly to Pac daddy close save and he handles it with [Applause] ease nearing the Midway Mark of the period you can feel the energy In This Crowd it's a tie game locks them up on the draw as they take possession San Jose got the puck in the defensive end and that's knocked Away cadro St in the line and on the attack how did he stopped that one there's the whistle as the puck is frozen up centers glide into the dot as a face operator to resume play Calgary's got it in the offensive zone here's a sharp angle shot and a solid save there as we play on moves the puck over to Neer me and he slides it quickly to Betts great reach with the boat check Quick Pass to BS knocks the puck away in the open ice and now it's grabbed by goodro oh those boards rattled after that hit wow and he's rattl as well James I mean we knew that hit was coming and then all a sudden boom and he's down for the count and there we go icing is the call past the halfway mark of this period we got a tie game nice job tying up his opponent with the blast can't get it to go that's off a stick San Jose's got it in the her own Zone to his [Music] teammate you can feel the energy in the building right now in this tight game the pressure is on you have to find a way to embrace it at this moment picked up along the wall by
