Patrick Sharp netted the game-winning goal on Sunday, just a few hours after bringing his newborn baby girl home.
Sharp and his wife celebrated the birth of their first child on Friday. "It was tough to focus on hockey when so much is going on back home," Sharp admitted. "We have a great locker room so it's easy to kind of turn things off when you come to the rink. I was a space cadet for the whole game (Sunday) and then I was able to bounce one in there for the winner." Sharp has been amazing lately, scoring nine goals and 12 points in his last eight games. He's in a three-way tie for fifth in the NHL with 16 goals.
