Martin Havlat Gives St. Louis the Blues

I won't speak for all Sharks fans, but I was frustrated with Martin Havlat all season. Havlat was traded to the Sharks for Danny Heatley and he was basically hurt the entire year. I stopped checking after a while seeing if or when he would return. Havlat eventually returned and I'm thankful he's on the Sharks after last night's game.

Havlat scored a power-play goal in the 2nd period to put the first goal on the board. St. Louis would score two more goals but Andrew Desjardins would score in the 3rd period to tie the game and send it to overtime. Niemi was spectacular in the first overtime sending the game to a second overtime.

In the 2nd overtime, Havlat would save the Sharks bacon.



Nice win for the Sharks (their first of the year against the Blues), but I still think St. Louis will win this series in 6 games. The Sharks have been inconsistent all year.

PS: Sorry for the headline but it had to be made.
