Boyle scores OT goal to complete awesome comeback!

Defenseman Dan Boyle scored his first goal with the Sharks in the overtime period to give the Sharks an improbably 5-4 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers and improve their 1st place record to 5-1.

The Sharks trailed 3-1 in the final period, but were able to tie the game and force overtime. 1:25 into the overtime, Boyle scored on an assist from Joe Thorton and that was all she wrote.

Boyle was brought in via trade with the Tampa Bay Lighting in the offseason for his ability to jump start the offense and he has delivered with a goal and 4 assists through the first 6 games.

The Sharks outshot the Flyers 45-17!

The Sharks travel to Philadelphia for a rematch with the Flyers on Wednesday.
