Cody Ceci's late goal propelled the San Jose Sharks to a thrilling 3-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Saturday. With just 25 seconds remaining in the game, Ceci unleashed a powerful slap shot that found its way past Devils goaltender Jacob Markstrom, securing the win for the Sharks.
The match showcased a back-and-forth battle, with the Sharks taking a brief lead in the third period thanks to Macklin Celebrini's wrist shot. However, the Devils responded with Paul Cotter's equalizer. Nikolai Kovalenko also made an impact, scoring his first goal for San Jose after a recent trade.
In addition to Ceci's heroics, Yaroslav Askarov delivered a strong performance in goal for the Sharks, stopping 28 shots. The victory marked the Sharks' second consecutive win against a playoff contender, following a previous triumph over the Tampa Bay Lightning.
