The Anaheim Ducks visited the San Jose Sharks last night, and the two California rivals combined for a back-and-forth, high-scoring affair.
The Ducks would end up winning the game 6-5 in a shootout, and forward Jakob Silfverberg is probably very relieved after the brutal mistake he made in the second period. After Ryan Strome put the Ducks up 4-3, Silfverberg gifted the Sharks the tying goal just 21 seconds later with one of the most brutal ''own goals'' you'll ever see.
For reference, below is a montage of some of the worst own-goals scored in the NHL. Where does Silfverberg's gaffe from Tuesday night rank among them? (Not sure many will top the Devils scoring three own-goals in one game! See below):
