The San Jose Sharks ended two weeks of frustration with a 6-5 win over the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden.
Macklin Celebrini recorded his second career NHL hat trick and matched a career-high with five points, including a key assist on Will Smith's overtime winner.
"I just wanted to stay on the puck," Celebrini said.
The Sharks (1-4-2) will continue their road trip on Friday against the New Jersey Devils.
