WOW

After the game 4 loss, I was starting to get very worried. We were not playing well and it did not seem as if we had any answers.

Then came game 5 at home...

We started out skating well, making good decisions and passing and moving the puck. For the majority of the game, we forced the rangers to play our style of hockey. Apparently Lindy was able to get the guys motivated to play.

Even though we were forcing out style, we could just NOT find the net. In fact the post made a number of spectacular saves. Then the Rangers got a great shot on net that snuck by the screened Miller. Next thing we knew, there was 15 seconds left and we were still down by 1. Drury takes the face off, wins the puck from the corner, passes to Connolly who takes a shot, then who else but Drury was there to shove in the rebound to tie the game with 7.7 seconds left! Fast forward to 5 min in OT, where Max rips a shot from the point on the power play and it goes right through the 5 hole for the win!

All I have to say is WOW! And boy did Max earn his spot on the line up again!

WOW!!
