"The San Jose Sharks rallied for an improbable win Saturday, scoring four times in the third period before defenseman John Klingberg scored at the 2:57 mark of overtime in a 6-5 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins at PPG Paints Arena. With the Sharks trailing 5-1, John Klingberg and William Eklund scored just under seven minutes apart before Macklin Celebrini and Tyler Toffoli both added goals in the final three minutes of the third period with the extra attacker to tie the game 5-5."
"Smith was hurt with 16:30 left in the third period, as he was hit into the boards by Pittsburgh defenseman Parker Wotherspoon in the Penguins' zone. Smith immediately began to skate off the ice and threw off one of his gloves as he clutched his right arm before he reached the bench. Right after the hit, Sharks center Macklin Celebrini went after Wotherspoon, with both players falling to the ice to start a brief melee."
