A little over a minute into last night's Canucks-Sharks game, the puck bounced off the boards on a Joe Thornton dump, rolled up the net, and knocked off Roberto Luongo's shoulder for a goal.

Officials Completely Miss Game-Winning Goal
The Sabres are very, very bad. The Sharks are very, very good. So for Buffalo to even take San Jose to overtime and gain a point was a moral victory.
