Playoffs Day 32

The Penguins tied up the series even though Anton Stralman returned to the Lightning from injury. Andrei Vasilevskiy did play for the Lightning as well making 38 saves. Matt Cullen scored the first goal when he got a rebound on Eric Fehr's shot. Phil Kessel got the next one when he got a weird pass from Bonino who was falling down in front of the net so he put it in to make it 2-0. Anton Stralman cut the lead in half in his return when he got a pass across from Jonathan Machessault and put in in over Murray's glove. Jonathan Drouin tied up the game when he was skating in the zone and had a nice wrist shot that when through Murray. Nothing else really happened in the second and third period, but in overtime Sidney Crosby got his first career playoff overtime goal. Bryan Rust passed it to Crosby who was on the top of the circle, and he one timed it and it went in. The series is now tied at one and will be going to Tampa Bay tied. The Blues and Sharks play game 2 tonight. Will the Lightning get Stamkos back? Can the Penguins continue this offense? Who will take game 3? stay tuned....
