After Game 3: It took 42 minutes 24 seconds of overtime play, but the Oilers in Edmonton hosted and defeated the San Jose Sharks 3-goals-2 to reduce the San Jose best-of-7 MLB/NBA/NHL playoff series 967 lead to 2-games-1.

The team to start the fifteen-series winning streak: The San Jose Sharks, with a series 678 defeat of the Calgary Flames in the 1995 NHL Preliminary round.
