Nashville 1, San Jose 1 (OT)

NASHVILLE, Dec. 23 (UPI) -- Petr Tenkrat scored with 35 seconds left in regulation Sunday as the Nashville Predators extended their team-record home unbeaten streak to 11 games with a thrilling 1-1 tie with the San Jose Sharks.

Nashville was killing a penalty in the final minute and pulled goaltender Mike Dunham just to square things at five on five.

Andy Delmore stripped the puck from fellow defenseman Mike Rathje in the left corner and threw it across the ice. Tenkrat whipped a shot from the outside edge of the right faceoff circle that tipped off Sharks defenseman Gary Suter and eluded goalie Evgeni Nabokov.

Both teams threatened during a wide-open overtime. Dunham got his left shoulder on Vincent Damphousse's blast from the left circle with 2:35 remaining and denied Suter twice from the bottom of the circle moments later.

The rest of the extra period belonged to the Predators, who peppered Nabokov over the final two minutes. Greg Classen was stopped off a turnover with 1:54 to play and Nabokov got his blocker on Bill Houlder's point-blank wrist shot after the former Sharks defenseman cut in off the right side.

With 13 seconds left, Greg Johnson was able to walk in alone off a faceoff in the right circle, but Nabokov poked the puck off his stick.

Dunham stopped 23 shots for Nashville, which is 8

Owen Nolan scored the lone goal for the Sharks, who are 12-1-2 when leading after two periods. They are 0-1-1 in the last two games following a club-record 10-game unbeaten streak.
