Didn't I just watch this game, only it was game 1, not game 2.
Again Brodeur and Quick were...I'll say great. And I really think Brodeur not only held the Devils in their in the 3rd period, but also in overtime.
But the problem again for New Jersey is those missed plays. There were several times in overtime where they had control of the puck in overtime and it seemed like just a matter of time until they scored.
But they didn't, and that opened the door for LA.
And just like in game 1, LA pounced on the opportunity.
This overtime goal by Jeff Carter wasn't quite like Kopitar. But that was some determination on him circling the goal and snapping it home! Got it through all five Devils plus Brodeur somehow!
This time it was the Devils who needed the game more than LA. Now it's gonna be an uphill climb for New Jersey, who need to win the next three games.
1993
Los Angeles looked to go up 2-0 vs Montreal on the road. But Marty McSorley got caught with an illegal stick...
1995
New Jersey trailed 2-1 going into the third. But a goal by Scott Niedemayer tied the game. Then the Devils won the game on a Jim Dowd goal and a Stephane Richer empty netter
Attitudes In The Dressing Room At This Point:
Los Angeles: Too bad we're going home...
New Jersey: Thannk god they are only 4-2 at home
2 Jeff Carter
9. Another OT that lasted longer and some great saves. Great goaltending duel.
