Eerie NHL Playoff Goal Similarities

Video clips of Sergei Samsonov and Pavel Datsyuk's goals in 2006 and 2007, respectively.

Samsonov's goal tied up Game 4 of a series in which the Sharks had a 2-0 grasp on. The Oilers won Game 3 and Samsonov's goal paved the way for a win in Game 4. The Oilers won the series and went on to go to the Finals.

Datsyuk's goal in Game 5 took place after the Sharks took an early 1-0 lead. Zetterberg scored to tie the game up and Datsyuk's won the game so the Wings could take a 3-2 series lead.

Yes, Yes, Yes!

I dont know how you can say they choked. San Jose would have been dominated this past year and swept out of the first round if it werent for Nabokovs play. The same for the year before hand.

The similarity

1- The goals

2- The score before these goals (sharks had a lead and had a chance to win a 3 game)

3- The final score (sharks lost both games by 3 goals)

4- The end of both series (sharks lost both series 4-2)

I have to agree with dstcoyote22, the sharks goalies choke everytime in the playoffs.
