SAN JOSE Cheap Christian McCaffrey Jersey , Calif. (AP) William Karlsson and the expansion Vegas Golden Knights proved they can handle some adversity just as well as they can thrive as front-runners like they did most of their inaugural season.The Golden Knights bounced back after allowing a late tying goal in regulation when Karlsson scored 8:17 into overtime to lead Vegas to a 4-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Monday night and a 2-1 series lead.”I think it’s good for the morale,” Karlsson said. ”We showed great attitude. Again, they came back. It was tough, too, but we gave someone a chance to be an overtime hero.”Karlsson was that hero – just as he has been so much this season. He scored 43 goals in the regular season and has added three more this series, but none was bigger than the wrist shot in transition that beat Martin Jones high to the stick side, sending the Golden Knights into a wild celebration around the player knows as Wild Bill.It was an impressive bounce back from their first loss of the playoffs in double overtime at home in Game 2 and wouldn’t have been possible without Marc-Andre Fleury, who made 39 saves to hold off an early push by the Sharks and then robbed Logan Couture with a glove save in overtime.”I was looking at the guy with puck. I just tried to follow the pass and get out there a bit and I had a little time to react on it,” Fleury said. ”It was a good feeling.”The Sharks rallied to tie the game and force a second straight overtime with two goals in the third period. Evander Kane scored just seconds after the end of a power play midway through the third to set the stage for Hertl.Hertl drove to the net with a strong power move. With the Sharks swarming in front of Fleury, Hertl whacked at a loose puck and knocked it in for the equalizer with 1:57 to go, sending the towel-waving crowd into a frenzy.”I believe our game’s there and I think everyone in here would tell you that,” captain Joe Pavelski said. ”We got caught on the wrong end of it tonight. We had a big one the other night.”Colin Miller, Jonathan Marchessault and Reilly Smith scored in a span of less than five minutes in the second period to put the Golden Knights in control, but they couldn’t hold onto the lead.Timo Meier opened the scoring with a power-play goal for the Sharks, but undisciplined play in the second period helped erase that lead and put San Jose in a hole.Brenden Dillon held David Perron to give Vegas a power play less than a minute after Meier’s one-timer off a perfect cross-ice pass from Chris Tierney gave the Sharks the lead.San Jose had an 11-1 edge in shots on goal in the period at that point as the Sharks were controlling the play. But that quickly turned as James Neal held the puck below the goal line and fed Miller with a pass that Marc-Edouard Vlasic nearly broke up for a tap-in that tied the game.About three minutes later Authentic Christian McCaffrey Jersey , Hertl was called for roughing Neal well behind the play, giving the Golden Knights another chance with the man advantage.They converted again when Marchessault one-timed a cross-ice pass from Alex Tuch past Jones to give Vegas the lead.Smith then capped the three goals in 4:46 when Marchessault fed Karlsson, who was left alone at the side of the net. He deftly sent a blind, backhand pass through the crease to Smith, who tapped it in for the 3-1 lead.”He’s got eyes in the back of his head sometimes,” Smith said. ”He’s a great player and he makes great plays.”The Sharks came out energized by a raucous crowd and the presence of celebrity door opener and San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo in their first home game of the series.San Jose got 16 shots on goal in the first period, but were unable to get anything past Fleury, who rebounded well from his first loss of the postseason.”To come out of that first period 0-0, we need to find a way to get the lead,” coach Peter DeBoer said. ”We’re chasing the game the whole series here. Even when we have a quick start like tonight, Fleury is shutting the door and finding the way to let them hang around until they can get something going, which is what happened.”NOTES: Sharks F Joonas Donskoi (lower body) sat out.

He took the place of Ryan Carpenter.— GLENDALE, Ariz. — Some NHL teams wait weeks for a newly acquired player to produce. Some wait months. Some wait forever as the production never comes.The Arizona Coyotes needed to wait mere hours for forward Nick Schmaltz to start delivering a payback for the two players who were traded for him on Monday.Schmaltz will make his home-ice debut Saturday night when the Coyotes play the St. Louis Blues, who were 3-2 overtime winners at Colorado on Friday. Article continues below ...Coyotes goaltender Adin Hill, coming off his first NHL career shutout http://www.pantherscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-christian-mccaffrey-jersey , also is expected to make his first start at home this season.The Coyotes were coming off a pair of dreadful home-ice losses, 6-1 to the Calgary Flames on Sunday and 5-1 to the Colorado Avalanche on Nov. 23, when general manager John Chayka acquired Schmaltz from the Chicago Blackhawks for former first-round draft picks Brendan Perlini and Dylan Strome.Schmaltz didn’t get on the scoresheet but made a tangible difference with his speed and playmaking skills the Tuesday as the Coyotes rallied from a two-goal deficit to beat the Minnesota Wild 4-3 on the road.On Thursday, Schmaltz shifted to center — his preferred position — with Alex Galchenyuk and Clayton Keller as his linemates and produced a goal and an assist in a 3-0 road shutout of the Nashville Predators. Hill made 29 saves in his first start of the season and only the fifth of his career.“That’s why we got Nick,” Arizona coach Rick Tocchet said. “It was nice to get production, basically, from all the lines.”Schmaltz set up Keller’s goal 1:40 into the second period, then scored himself on the power play in the final 21 seconds of the period to make it 2-0.“We knew it was going to come at some point, and we just kept working and got rewarded,” Schmaltz said. “Those are two guys (his linemates) who see the game at a similar level and we like to make plays and find each other and support each other. I think the chemistry is going to keep getting better and growing each and every night.”It was quite the turnaround for the Coyotes, who went from two of the worst losses — both aesthetically and score-wise — of Tocchet’s two-season tenure to two of their more impressive road wins.Hill was the big surprise; he was playing at Tucson (AHL) before being called up last weekend when No. 1 goaltender Antti Raanta and No. 2 Darcy Kuemper both sustained lower-body injuries at about the same time.“Two games ago we were the worst team in the league, now I’m sure people are going to say we’re great again,” Tocchet said. “I’m not a roller-coaster guy, it’s (stay) even keel. Keep doing the right things, hopefully. You’re going to go through some lulls Baker Mayfield Jersey Elite , you manage those and you manage wins, and highs. I think that’s important for any team. Young kids are learning, too, to manage your emotions after wins and losses.”The Coyotes were 1-3-1 on a five-game homestand that preceded the two road wins, but they won four of five on home ice before that.The Blues are a team acquainted with roller-coaster rides, too. They won four of five from Oct. 27-Nov. 9 but had lost seven of nine before beating the Avalanche on defenseman Colton Parayko’s goal at 1:34 of overtime. Jake Allen made 27 saves, including a succession of difficult stops.St. Louis came into the game with the fewest wins (8) in the league, and this was their first one-goal victory all season.“Obviously, there’s a point (of the season) where we want to turn it around, and I think this was a huge win for us,” Parayko said. “It was a team win that started in the back with Jake and went all the way through the lineup. I thought we had a solid effort, and we want to continue with it.”The Coyotes were 2-0-1 against the Blues last season. Schmaltz’s older brother, Jordan, is a Blues defenseman.
