Sharks Vs. Canucks, Game 5: First Overtime Isn’t Enough To Decide Game

The Canucks and Sharks are making the most of the only overtime game thus far in this series as the first overtime period wasn't enough to decide the game.

The Canucks started the period trying to end it quickly, getting a couple solid chances within the first couple of minutes but couldn't solve Antti Niemi. The Sharks then controlled most of the rest of the first overtime period as they outshot the Canucks 16-9 in the first overtime.

Roberto Luongo has been the star of the game thus far as he has made 50 saves thus far in this game. Besides his guffaw that led to the Sharks getting a lead in the third period, Luongo has kept the Canucks in this game. Antti Niemi has 27 saves at the opposite end of the rink.

There is only one Sharks player that doesn't have a shot on goal and that is Jamie McGinn. Joe Thornton and Dany Heatley leads all Sharks players with six shots on goal each while Daniel Sedin has five shots on goal for the Vancouver Canucks.

This game has to have a winner, the question is whether that could happen by noon tomorrow.
