TWO OVERTIME PERIODS...
The First Period looked like Thursday night. Bad blood, dirty hits, no scoring. We scored first in the 2nd, but Philly scored 10 minutes later. Then, in the 3rd, the whole tempo changed. We stayed in their zone, we pressured them the entire time. I started feeling better about our chances. Then came the overtime... and it was much of the same. Hardly any penalties at all, the time flew. We outshot them 14 to 2, keeping up the pressure. Then came the 2nd overtime, and we lost 3:50 into the period.
Now we're down 0-2 going to Philadelphia.
I have this bad, sinking feeling that we've seen the last of hockey this season.

Carol & I skipped the Sox-Cleveland game this afternoon to go to my cousin Kathy's for a family party to celebrate some summer birthdays and Alex's graduation from grammer school. We had a torrential thunderstom before we left. When we got there, everybody was still inside, but the sun came out and eventually we all spilled outside to enjoy some decent weather.
Unfortunately, we left after 6 o'clock to go the Wolves game - I mean it is the finals for the Calder Cup...
