Unless it's taking someone's head off, you DON'T call anything in overtime!). The Sharks did nothing to make me think they still won't choke. Losing Game 1 at home, and barely winning Game 2 doesn't bode well for them having to now face Colorado on their home ice. I feel that Colorado will win in 6(maybe 5) games.
I also think that Greiss will start in net for Game 3 for the Sharks.

I totally disagree. Nabby was porous and there were a few mistakes (like Murray trying his hand at offense, leading to a 2-1 break).
The story is that the Sharks come from behind FIVE TIMES to win this game. The Sharks dominated throughout.
Sharks put 52(!) shots on net, with the Avs blocking 32(!) shots and 16 misses. Sharks out-hit, won more faceoffs, and were more disciplined. They totally out-worked the Avs everywhere.
Sharks had two goals waived off in the third, and scored the tying goal with 32 seconds left. You might recall the Avs scoring with 50 seconds to win game 1. Hah!
The penalty on Foote in OT was for slamming Jet Ortmeyer's head into the net so hard the net came off and they had to blow the play dead. 5-5 the Sharks were swarming, you couldn't possibly believe that this penalty was the deciding factor in this game? Anderson literally saw the puck 100 times man! The Sharks totally out worked the Avs. They deserved to win, and that's why they won.
Also, the Sharks WILL stick with Nabby.
