Game #4- New York Islanders vs. Boston

After the 6-1 butt kickin we got Thursday night against Anaheim, I was looking forward to the game tonight against the Islanders for two reasons. #1, I get to so John Tavares play in a Islanders jersey for the 1st time and #2, Tuukka Rask was starting for the Bruins. When you get a PP chance in the first 12 seconds, I'm like saying here we go right off the bat. Can't say we didn't have our chances just Dwayne Roloson shut the door on that. After the cheap shot Sean Bergenheim had on Marc Savard (non-call), Andrew Ference stuck up for Savard but Ference was the only one that got anything. If that was bad enough, 21 seconds later Blake Wheeler took a 4-minute hi-sticking call. We killed it all off, thank god. The 2nd period was all Islanders. Goals from Jon Sim, Radek Martinek and John Tavares made it 3-0 Isles after 2. It wasn't looking good for the BOYS. After I yelled at the TV for the first 11:58 of the 3rd, somebody fliped the switch to on for the Bruins. Marc Savard finally broke thru Roloson at 11:59, good still need two more. 15:35, Bitz scores, 3-2. Ok, we now a miracle. less than 5 minutes left and it's 3-2 Islanders, somebody had to step up plate and tie this game. Somebody stepped up alright, Hunny struck. Matt Hunwick scored at 17:26 to tie the game. Boston had all momentum after that. It went to overtime, nothing happened but both teams had there chances. Shootout time. Blake Wheeler scored first and then the Isanders tied it, grrr. After both teams missed shots in the 2nd round. Here come the 3rd round and here comes Marc Savard. Yup, goal. Come on Rask, stop Kyle Okposo. Rask stopped him, Bruins win 4-3 in the shootout. Final shots on goal, 38-30 for the Islanders. Next game is Monday afternoon at 2pm vs. my old team Colorado. That should be interesting
