THE FIRST GOAL<br />
The 2001-02 season was a memorable one for Evgeni Nabokov in many ways. But one feat will stand out<br />
forever.<br />
On March 10, 2002, “Nabby” became the first goaltender in <strong>Sharks</strong> history and the seventh in <strong>NHL</strong> history<br />
to score a goal in a regular season game. Nabokov’s goal came on an empty net at 19:12 of the third period<br />
in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Jose</strong>’s 7-4 win in Vancouver.<br />
Two more facts add to the significance of Nabokov’s goal. It was the first ever scored by a European-born<br />
goaltender and the first scored by a goaltender on the power play.<br />
