Bruins Game 2

I tuned in when the Caps scored.(Maybe I shouldn't have tuned in.) Fight at the end of the 2nd period was awesome. I believed Boston could still pull this off. However, Tim Thomas's playoff streak was snapped by the Cap's goal. The 3rd period began and Bruin's looked sloppy; shooting wide. There was 10:22 left, puck was deflected out of play. 8:49 to go, no more goals by either team. Bruin's fans (such as myself) tensed and feeling grim. Then, out of the safe of miracles BRUINS GOAL by Ben POULIOT w/7:47 to go. The game is now tied 1-1. All Cap's fans get sweaty. Tim Thomas deflects a puck out of play. Bruin's are offside w/5:55 left. What's going to happen?! 2:26 to go, Backstrom gets taken down, from behind, in front of the net.The siren sounds, signaling the end of the 3rd period. Caps and my Boston are now in overtime. Tim Thomas goes into overtime w/28 saves.Caps and Bruins both are shooting wide.4:58 into overtime and still no change. 12:33 to go and Boston has had 2 shots in overtime. Come on! Come on! 9:20 to go in overtime and still no change. What is Boston doing?! 6:42 to go and there's a save by Thomas. 5:29 to go 37 shots by the Bruins, approximately and score is still 1-1. 1:00 minute to go and shot deflected. Thought Bruin's had that one. The siren sounds, 41 shots by the Bruins and no change in score. It's the end of the 1st overtime. The Caps scored a goal in the 2nd overtime and won game 2. 2-1 Washington. Sad.
