Through games one and two, the third period would drastically tilt in favor of the Vancouver Canucks. However, even upon two quick goals in the third (credit to a five-minute power play off a game misconduct penalty to Jamie McGinn), the San Jose Sharks showed enough to hold off a rally, winning 4-3 and now only trailing Vancouver 2-1 in the best-of-seven series.
The power play really was a strong point for the Sharks, accounting for three of the four goals. Patrick Marleau scored twice on the evening, including a spectacular breakaway play to get the puck past Canucks' goaltender Roberto Luongo. Could this be a turning point?
