Sharks 9 Game Winning Streak Snapped

Sharks 9 game streak snapped by overtime lose to Oilers 3-2. The San Jose Sharks were on a 9 game winning streak until they met Dwayne Roloson. Roloson is one of 2 star goalies for Edmonton. 79% of people thought Mathieu Garon, the other goalie who had goalied them to a 5-4 shoout win last game, should get to play the game. The Sharks outshot the Oilers 43-16, but (my god!) Roloson stopped 41 shots, many of them being breakaways and consectutive rebound shots. After making a tough save, Roloson was hauled over by the Oilers very own Rob Shremp. Roloson dropped his stick in the mess and got up to jump down again to make a save. He made the save without letting a rebound. That was one of 2 saves Roloson made without a stick. Roloson also made a save while his helmet had been knocked off. Roloson recieved first star that game. Ales Hemsky scored his 9th and Dustin Penner his 7th. Dustin Penner deflected Sheldon Souray's shot. Kyle Brodziak scored an awkward goal to end the game in favor of the Oilers in overtime. Brodziak's 5th goal wasn't actually an attempt to score. Brodziak was passed the puck in front of the net and tried to pass it to the other side when it deflected off Ehrhoff's stick and into the net. Dwayne Roloson later was interviewed, answering the question "Do you like lots of shots?". Roloson answered "Yeah, I mean, it keeps me on my toes.".
