Stanley Cup Playoffs, Night 23

It was another night with just a single game. And it spelled very bad news for the New York Rangers. And while it wasn't quite as bad as what happened to the Canucks last night — it wasn't that much better. Hockey happened and I missed all of it.

Sabres 2, Rangers 1, 1OT
Sabres lead series 3-2
Versus had the game, but I unfortunately was unable to watch. So far the home team has won every game in this series. Nothing new tonight. The Rangers thought they had an early goal to get the first lead but it was nixed when a penalty for goalie interference was called. Instead, no scoring happened until the last five minutes of the third period. New York got on the board first and this time it counted. It looked like they had this game in the bag. And then with 7.2 seconds to go, Chris Drury showed why he is captain with a spectacular ditch-effort goal. Buffalo forced overtime and it only required about five minutes for the Sabres to take a 3-2 series lead. One more win and they're off the Eastern Finals. I imagine Sabres fans are pretty stoked.
