Sharks Rally In Third Period, Push Series Lead To 2-0 On Red Wings

With a gold medal, a Hart Trophy and a load of other accolades, Joe Thornton has never been the other Joe on the San Jose Sharks until this year's playoffs.

Everyone on San Jose is taking a back seat to Joe Pavelski this postseason.

That's five wins in a row in this postseason for the Sharks, who are actually starting to look like the team everyone thinks it should be.

After Pavelski tied it early in the third period with his second goal, Thornton ended his playoff drought by knocking in a rebound with 7:23 left that gave the Sharks a 4-3 victory against the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday night to take a 2-0 lead in the second-round series.
