Raise your hand if you thought the Bruins game would end the way it did. I certainly didn't, but I'm sure as hell glad it happened. For those who missed the glorious moment, in the winding moments of overtime, Marc Savard, with his only shot of the game (his first one in 2 months by the way), led the Bruins to a 5-4 win over the Philladelphia Flyers. And thus starts celebration and numberous happy dances. And a couple of tears.Even though it was only game one of the series, it was by far the most memorable of any moment in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The game has a whole was well played, with both teams going to the net, and both goalies coming up with major saves.
There was lots of action. I would have traded in the little catch-up the Philly had. But that means I would also have to trade in arguably the best ending to a game, and I wouldn't do that for the world. So till the next epic win, keep dancing Savvy.
Very, very happy for you Bruins fans to hear of this win. Was Savard the one who got hurt a while ago?
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean that Bruins playoff games may interrupt Red Sox games on NESN again?
