Bad things happen to good players

Replay of the Day: Dallas Stars “scorer” Steve Ott owes San Jose Sharks defenceman Dan Boyle a pat on the back.

Watch as a back-checking Boyle races into his own zone and absolutely snipes one past his own goaltender, Thomas Greiss, padding Ott’s stats in the process. Boyle hangs his head in shame.

Luckily for Boyle, who undoubtedly received some good-natured ribbing from his teammates, the Sharks came back from that early deficit to win the game 5-2.

Unluckily for Boyle, this has happened to him before. In the 2010 playoffs, Boyle beat the Sharks' Evgeni Nabokov in overtime, giving the Colorado Avalanche a 2-1 series lead.

Boyle's own goal on Thursday ended the Sharks' franchise-record 200-plus-minutes streak without allowing a goal.
