nhl roundup Wednesday’s games
Sharks 5, Flyers 4, SO
PHILADELPHIA
Logan Couture and Ryan Clowe scored shootout goals and the Sharks overcame a three-goal, third-period deficit and an apparent Philadelphia goal in the final second of overtime. The Flyers appeared to win it in overtime, but Mike Richards’ goal was waved off after a reply showed time expired an instant before the puck crossed the line. In the second period, the Sharks had a goal waved off when officials determined the puck was kicked in by John McCarthy. The Sharks won for the first time this season when trailing after two periods, while the Flyers lost for the time when leading after two.
Predators 3, Red Wings 2
DETROIT
Colin Wilson, Martin Erat and J.P. Dumont scored and Anders Lindback made 35 saves to help the Predators. Pavel Datsyuk had a goal and an assist and Johan Franzen also scored for Detroit, which lost its third straight and second in a row in regulation. Jimmy Howard stopped 21 saves. Dumont gave Nashville a 3-1 lead with 5:23 left on a wrist shot from the right circle on a 2-on-1. Franzen cut it to a goal with 1:33 remaining.
