Watch: Sabres' Kane pots OT winner, crashes headfirst into boards

Fair to assume this was a bittersweet victory for Evander Kane, to say the least.

The Buffalo Sabres sniper came up with one of his finest performances of the season Tuesday night, scoring the overtime winner - his second goal of the game - to cap a wild late-game comeback over the San Jose Sharks.

Kane was tripped up by netminder Martin Jones during the one-time goal, launching him headfirst into the boards as his teammates celebrated. He was able to get to his feet and leave the ice without assistance.
