SAN JOSE — Brent Burns scored 19 seconds into overtime, as the Sharks ended their five game homestand with a 2-1 win over the Coyotes, their first win against Arizona this season.
A minute in, Patrick Marleau roofed a rolling backhander past Coyotes goaltender Mike Smith, and appeared to give the Sharks a 1-0 lead. Arizona head coach Dave Tippet had other ideas, and challenged the goal on the notion that Brenden Dillon was offside on the play. Replays confirmed that he entered the zone before Joe Thornton, who had the puck, and the call was overturned.
After the disallowed goal, both teams were slow to generate any chances, and combined for just one shot on goal (excluding the disallowed goal) in the first seven-and-a-half minutes of the period.
