Good memory.

Ron Wilson knows Teemu Selanne quite well, having coached him in San Jose and Anaheim. He's also been around the NHL long enough to recognize an illegal stick when he sees one.

So the Sharks coach bided his time until the right opportunity presented itself to catch the Ducks' all-time leading goal scorer red-handed.

An illegal stick penalty on Selanne negated an Anaheim power-play at the start of overtime, and the Sharks went on to beat the Ducks 3-2 in a shootout on Wednesday night.

"I wasn't very happy about what happened," Selanne said. "Obviously, I didn't expect that call. Whether it was classy or not, it was Ron Wilson's decision. He's not my favorite coach anymore."

Selanne used poor ice surfaces as an excuse for altering his sticks.
