SAN JOSE, Calif.
Nolan Ryan Angels Jersey . -- David Legwand and Pekka Rinne were good all night long for Nashville and that was enough to give the Predators another impressive victory. Legwand scored his second goal of the game 2:53 into overtime to lift the Predators to a 4-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Saturday night. Rinne, who signed a US$49-million, seven-year deal on Thursday, made several key saves down the stretch for the Predators, who overcame a two-goal deficit in the third period. He finished with 35 saves. The two were able to celebrate together with their traditional victory song: Lionel Ritchies "All Night Long." "I dont think they know who Lionel Ritchie is," Nashville coach Barry Trotz said. "Thats my genre." Ryan Suter and Patric Hornqvist also scored for the Predators, who are 4-0-1 in their past five games. "It was a big comeback," Trotz said. "They put a lot of pucks on the net in the first period but we stayed resilient, and Leggy -- deservedly so -- gets the winner." Joe Pavelski, Martin Havlat and Logan Couture scored for the Sharks, who lost for the second time in three games following a five-game winning streak. "We scored early in the third period, and you cant sit back," Pavelski said. "They were pressing a little but we expected that, and theres no reason we shouldnt handle it." Rinne gave Nashville a big lift early, stopping all 19 shots he faced in the first period. "Hes a great goalie. Hes tough to beat," Couture said. "He plays well every time." Rinne made a tremendous save during a Sharks power play during the final minute of regulation. "They made a nice play to Pavelski," Rinne said. "Luckily, I was able to make that save. It was obviously pretty big at the time; just 20 or 30 seconds left in the third." Legwand gave the Predators a 1-0 lead just over a minute into the second period when he slapped in a rebound of a shot by Hornqvist. The puck glanced off Sharks defender Torey Mitchell and into the net. "The first one was just a puck thrown at the net and a lucky bounce off their pads," Legwand said. "We just kept battling, and to come up with the penalty kill in overtime and the final minute of the third period." The Sharks scored the next three goals. Pavelski started the spurt by turning a nice backhanded pass from Couture into a goal just under five minutes into the period. Havlats power-play goal was the result of persistence. Couture and Ryane Clowe both had shots that bounced off Rinnes pads, and Havlat poked at the puck twice before wristing a shot into the top left corner. Couture gave the Sharks a 3-1 advantage in the first minute of the third period. Hornqvist got the Predators within 3-2 when he knocked in a loose puck from the crease. Suter tied it with a power-play goal a few minutes later. NOTES: San Jose C Joe Thornton had two assists, giving him 703 and tying him with Jeremy Roenick for 49th place on the career list. ... Legwand has points in four straight games. ... Pavelski has scored a goal in six of his last eight games. ... Hornqvist has a career-best, five-game scoring streak. ...

LONG POND, Pa. -- Denny Hamlin said hell use this weeks suspension of his crew chief as motivation to prove his car can go fast "no matter what." Joe Gibbs Racing crew chief Darian Grubb and car Wesley Sherrill were both suspended through the Sept. 6 race at Richmond. Grubb, the crew chief, was also fined $125,000. Team engineer Mike Wheeler will fill in as the crew chief. It strips Hamlin of two vital crew members during the stretch of the season he would be putting the finishing touches on preparations for NASCARs title-deciding, 10-race Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. Hamlin said the punishment could be a positive because Grubb can spend more time at the shop working on cars. Hamlins car failed post-race inspection Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway because NASCAR said it found issues with several of the covers in the rear firewall of the driver compartment. Loose or missing covers could vent the driver compartment and create more downforce for the car. Grubb and Sherrill, who also each received six months probation, are not eligible to return until the Chase opener on Sept. 14 at Chicago. "Well, you use sttuff like this as motivation to go out there and prove that you can run fast no matter what and you can run well," Hamlin said Friday.

He also has confidence in longtime JGR employee Wheeler calling the shots for Sundays race at Pocono Raceway. "Im with the guy that Ive been with for 10 years. Ive been with Mike Wheeler longer than Ive been with anyone in the Cup series," Hamlin said. "We worked together a lot and pretty confident in the job that hes going to do, but on top of that then I get a guy who was my car chief for 10 years, get him back to the race track." Hamlin and team owner Joe Gibbs were docked 75 points apiece in the driver and owner standings. It dropped Hamlin from 11th to 21st in the Sprint Cup standings. But, as a race winner already this season, Hamlin is likely guaranteed a spot in the 16-driver Chase field. "Were pretty confident that well get through it and by Chase time well be a contender," Hamlin said.
