SAN JOSE -- Tanner Pearson scored 58 seconds into overtime to give the Los Angeles Kings a 2-1 victory against the San Jose Sharks at SAP Center on Tuesday.
After a turnover by Sharks rookie forward Kevin Labanc in the Kings zone, Pearson took a pass from Jeff Carter on a 2-on-1 rush and beat goalie Martin Jones with a shot from the left faceoff circle for his 10th goal.
"I just kind of hung out by the blue line until Carter crossed the blue line and went down on a 2-on-1 and finished it off," Pearson said.
