San Jose Sharks earned their second win of the season thanks to a Macklin Celebrini OT game-winner, while the Mammoth continue to roll as they win their seventh straight during Sunday's slate of games!

Sharks 6-5 Wild 

In a battle of exchanged goals, the Sharks came out on top thanks to Celebrini's OT game-winner. 

The 19-year-old now has six goals and nine assists (15 points) in juts nine games this season. 

After going down 4-2 entering the third period, the Wild scored three of the game's next four goals to send it into OT, where the Sharks emerged victorious. 

Minnesota fell to 3-5-2 on the season while the Sharks improved to 2-5-2. 

Devils 4-3 Avalanche 

After going down 2-0 in the first period thanks to a pair of goals from New Jersey's Arseny Gritsyuk (2) and Jack Hughes (7), the Avs evened things up later in the first courtesy of goals from Valeri Nichushkin (5) and Nathan MacKinnon (7).

New Jersey would go up 3-2 thanks to a Connor Brown (5) goal, but the Avs responded again with a Brock Nelson (2) goal that eventually sent it into OT. 

Hughes (8) would score his second goal of the game to keep the Devils' league-leading eight-game win streak alive as they improve to 8-1-0. 

Colorado have now lost four games in overtime already to start the year as they fell to 5-1-4. 

Mammoth 3-2 Jets

The Mammoth won their seventh straight game thanks to a late third-period goal from Dylan Guenther (5). 

Dylan DeMelo scored his first goal of the season to put the Jets up 1-0. But Mikhail Sergachev's (2) power play goal and Michael Carcone's (2) goal just a minute later put the Mammoth ahead. 

But Winnipeg's Mark Scheifele (8) took advantage and tied it up in the third period on a power play to send it to OT. 

From there, Guenther took care of the rest as Utah sits atop the Western Conference with a 8-2-0 record - undefeated since revealing their new mascot Tusky. 

Jets fell to 6-3-0. 

Lightning 2-1 Golden Knights

The Lightning joined in on the overtime wins on Sunday thanks to Nikita Kucherov (3) sending one home just 33 seconds into OT. 

Brandon Hagel, who was second on the Lightning in goals last year with 35, finally scored his first of the new season to give Tampa Bay the early 1-0 in the first. 

Later in the same period, William Karlsson (4) responded for the Golden Knights to tie it all up 1-1, leaving neither team to score again for the second and third. 

Then Hagel wracked up an assist on Kucherov's goal as the Lightning improved to 3-4-2. 

Vegas fell to 5-1-3. 

Kings 3-1 Blackhawks 

Connor Bedard (3) got the Blackhawks started with the first goal of the game. But the Kings followed up with three unanswered of their own from Alex Laferriere (2), Kevin Fiala (5), and Joel Armia (2) - who scored the final one on a short-handed empty netter.

LA goaltender Anton Forsberg put on his best performance, saving 20 of 21 shots (.957%).

Kings improved to 4-3-3, while the Blackhawks fell to 4-3-2. 

Stars 3-2 Predators

After a Jonathan Marchessault (3) power play goal to start and Spencer Stastney's first goal of the year, Dallas responded with three straight goals to complete the comeback. 

Two-year man Oskar Back scored his first goal of the year before Wyatt Johnston (6) scored the team's second goal in the second period. 

Mikko Rantanen (4) would be the one to send home the game-winner late in the third period. 

Dallas improved to 5-3-1 on the year after winning their second in a row, Predators fell to 4-4-2.

Flames 5-1 Rangers

Calgary broke out of their eight-game slump after handing the Rangers their sixth loss in the past seven games. 

Nazem Kadri (2) and Kevin Bahl (1) got things started for the Flames to take an early 2-0 lead. Then Rangers' Noah Laba scored his first on the season with his lone goal being just one of five shots on net the Rangers had in the first period.

Yegor Sharangovich also scored his first of the season to extend the Flames' lead before Blake Coleman (5) would score a pair to make a comeback, hopefully for New York. 

Calgary improved to 2-7-1, New York fell to an Eastern Conference worst 3-5-2.

Canucks 4-3 Oilers (OT)

Kiefer Sherwood scored twice, including the overtime winner, as Vancouver edged visiting Edmonton. As a result, the Canucks improved to 2-2-0 on home ice this season.
