San Jose Sharks captain Joe Pavelski's incredible postseason continued Saturday night and he has the team's former captain to thank.
Joe Thornton found Pavelski alone in the slot with a perfect, no-look pass from the sideboards, and Pavelski made no mistake beating Pekka Rinne to give the Sharks a 2-1 lead in the first period of Game 5 against the Nashville Predators.
The goal was Pavelski's team-leading seventh of the postseason.
