Vegas Golden Knights forward Cody Eakin earned a five-minute major and a game misconduct for crosschecking Joe Pavelski in the third period of Wednesday's Game 7, and the San Jose Sharks made him pay, scoring four power-play goals to erase a three-goal, third-period deficit.
Here's a look at the play that got Eakin ejected:
