Boyle's Own Goal, Steve Smith still lives

Obviously, you do not expect your own teammates to put shots on your net but Nabokov was asleep in that situation.

And everyone laughed at me when I said I would rather have Anderson than Osgood&Howard...

To me it kind of looked like it hit the Avs player's stick. Hard to tell though.

Still, what an awful way to lose. Sharks still finding a way to not look like a Cup contender.

Even if it did hit the Avs stick, why was Boyle aiming the shot towards his net?

I really hope the Sharks make it out of the first round. I want to play them (assuming the Wings can make it out of the first round themselves). It's just ironic that Nabokov played amazingly all game until one of his teammates shot the puck at him.

That's sort of my point. I don't think he was. The Avs player got his stick in there, and Boyle was backhanding it behind his own net. It wouldn't surprise me if it was deflected and went on net.

When I heard it was an own goal, that's nowhere near where I would've expected him to be on the ice. You really have to miss badly to put a backhand on net from there. It could be what happened, but I'd bet it deflected off the Avs player's stick and went on net.

I kind of feel bad for Boyle, but at the same time it's still pretty friggin funny.

Well..... Danny look on the bright side... it was a pretty nice shot. Most players go their entire careers without putting a back-hand in at that kind of angle.

You're unappreciated in your own time Mindfly. Later generations will come to love you.

Again, Nabby should have had that one!

It deflected of O'reily's stick before it went in, they must just expect bad luck.
