00:08St. Petersburg's holding down bragging rights, having won the last two in this series.
00:14Lozon's physicality forced a number of turnovers the last time he played them.
00:18Meyers' physical play was the story the last time he played them, but he also scored.
00:22Two great stars, two teams that just don't like each other.
00:26All that is magic on the ice.
00:28Next.
00:30Well, we've been waiting for this one all day long, and here we go.
00:38We are underway here, and let the game begin.
00:42Well, the left side goes to the middle of the ice.
00:45Moose into Pahal.
00:47And that skips away on a nice defensive deflection.
00:52Looks to set up at the point now.
00:55New Jersey's got the puck inside the defensive zone.
00:58Moves it to bits.
01:00Here's a short pass to O'Brien.
01:04Takes the shot.
01:05What the stop?
01:07Guys, a rookie, all you want to do is get that first one and get on the board.
01:12And he passes it up ahead to Draft.
01:15Oh, and some smooth skating to lose the defender there.
01:18Big save.
01:20Whether you're a player or goaltender, so much of the training is about reaction, and you
01:24can certainly tell that it has come in handy for him because he makes an incredible save
01:28just by seeing Stinks alone.
01:30And a great save.
01:32Oh, and there's a big time hit.
01:35That's a massive and timely hit there, James.
01:38Stalls the opponent with the head down, lined up perfectly, and through.
01:42I just love the physicality and the intensity of this play.
01:45Stoles him in front.
01:46I would have lost the puck two times by the time that I've been handled like that by the
01:50coverage.
01:51I mean, but he does it.
01:52He just knows how to move and maneuver his body around the puck.
01:55He can shield it, and he maintains possession for a great shot on net.
02:01Looks to set up along the puck.
02:05I don't think anybody was hanging on to the puck after that hit.
02:09The Devils have it now.
02:11New Jersey's in on the offensive attack now.
02:15St. Petersburg's got a hold of it along the wall.
02:20Slides it across.
02:22Oh, he got all that.
02:23What a save by Markstrom.
02:27Great defensive effort with the stick.
02:30St. Petersburg's going to play the puck from behind the cage.
02:36The Devils gain possession along the wall.
02:39Lures the puck over to Siegenthaler.
02:42Wants to pass it to Huescher.
02:45And he takes the pass.
02:47Here's a shot!
02:48Stopped by the goaltender.
02:50We know the goaltender was set to this position, square to the shooter, to be able to make that
02:54club save.
02:55A mind of the team store, always accessible to you online.
02:5824-7, 365 online.
03:01But don't forget, you can also visit their location in person at the arena.
03:05Open seven days a week.
03:07Checking out some very cool stuff to get your hands on.
03:11Takes the pass.
03:13Passes it in front.
03:14And his shot's down.
03:16A great scoring chance there.
03:18Breaking up that center.
03:20But it looks off.
03:21St. Petersburg's got the puck against the half wall.
03:25Here's a chance.
03:26Sends it in front.
03:27Great defensive play to pick off the pass.
03:30Fires it on it.
03:32And that's blocked from someone in front.
03:35Tops it up and centers.
03:37The doubles tickle on the wall.
03:39Loses the coverage layer.
03:41Oh!
03:42On the inside of the post.
03:44A huge opportunity to go ahead in this game, James.
03:47But it hits the pipe and out.
03:49Now they're chasing.
03:53Pusses it over.
03:55Dishes it off.
03:57With possession along the wall.
03:59He scores!
04:01Lights the loop on the one-timer!
04:09Paul James, you knew his teammates were looking to feed him.
04:12He was set up.
04:13He was chomping at the pit.
04:14Well, he got the delivery and he converted on it.
04:35Well, it's hard not to think that the peaking should continue as he picks up an assist,
04:39extending his point streak in this rivalry series.
04:42Well, he's certainly earned the right to choke right now, hasn't he?
04:44Yeah, look at the stats sheet, James.
04:46And every time he plays this team, he's just on another level.
04:48There's a rhythm to his game.
04:50And I think he's ready right from pop-top each and every time.
04:54St. Petersburg's looking to break out of the road in.
04:58New Jersey's got a hold of it against the wall.
05:01And that's broken up by Zamola.
05:05Sets a pass in front.
05:07And he'll hang on to a tree group here for a moment.
05:11Clothes the puck.
05:19And that shot came quick and it was right out front.
05:22He had to be sharp.
05:23He'd be right on it and show his brilliant reflexes.
05:26Moves it quickly over to Skinner.
05:29Here they come on the attack.
05:32Quick pass to Pahal.
05:34Takes the feed.
05:38Pichner's stick-handling in his own zone.
05:42Tried to make a move in the top possible lane.
05:46Feeds it on over to Kapanen.
05:49Feeds it over.
05:50New Jersey's got the puck.
05:53Through the open ice, they're picking up steam.
05:58St. Petersburg's got possession of the puck.
06:02Nice zone entry from the left.
06:05The Devils get a hold of the puck in their own end.
06:08Right up the gut into the attacking zone.
06:12St. Petersburg's got control of the puck.
06:16The Devils take possession of the neutral zone.
06:19New Jersey's on the attack.
06:22Deflected away.
06:23Nice defensive use of the stick there.
06:26St. Petersburg's looking to break out.
06:30Slides it across.
06:33Pucks scooped up by Perron.
06:36The Devils game the zone.
06:39Sends it across.
06:41Ref blows the whistle as the puck's covered up.
06:44Fabry's been getting some good looks,
06:46but unable to convert here.
06:48And really tough when you're in a pointless streak
06:50and you're trying to get yourself going.
06:52You want to cash in on a few of those opportunities
06:54just to make yourself feel like you're contributing.
06:56St. Petersburg's got the win off that draw.
07:00Gets the puck over to Perthier.
07:03And that pass attempt is deflected.
07:05Slides the puck to Hughes.
07:09Smart defensive play here in the open ice.
07:12Oh, did he drop a thunderous hit there?
07:15Bins carries the puck in his own zone.
07:18Can't maintain possession after that hit.
07:21Pass to Perthier.
07:24New Jersey's got the puck in their own end.
07:27A chance in front.
07:28Oh, big time save by Markstrom.
07:32And they'll cover it up, forcing a stoppage in play.
07:37Let's have a look at that last hit.
07:38I mean, that was absolutely huge change.
07:41You know, but this is a momentum change.
07:42You can see the bench erupt with that one.
07:51Passed the halfway mark of this period.
07:541-0 to score.
08:03The Devils win the draw.
08:05Slides the pass in to Pesci.
08:07Shakes off the coverage.
08:09Picked off the line on the boards by Nielsen.
08:12Pires it.
08:14Stops it.
08:15Scores!
08:15He gobbles up the rebound and tucks it home.
08:25Sometimes when you're an on-man rush, you can overthink it, James.
08:28You can overpass.
08:30Not here.
08:30They execute perfectly with precision passing.
08:33And you can tell there was no hesitation.
08:35They were driving and they capitalized.
08:54New Jersey's even things up here in the back half of the first.
08:57But, yeah, they're more connected right now, James.
08:59I felt like they started the period.
09:00They were back on their heels.
09:01And they couldn't get out of their zone with any type of continuity.
09:04Well, now they're kind of right at the ship right now.
09:06They're in your rhythm.
09:07And they've got back to reach the score.
09:09Knocks the puck loose.
09:14Scooped up along the wall by Fabry.
09:19Oh, we'll get some tired defenders.
09:21As icing is the call.
09:26Here in the late goings of the period,
09:28we are all tied up in this one.
09:35New Jersey's got it in the offensive side.
09:38Center rings that one clean.
09:39Everyone's ready for the puck.
09:40They know they're attacking now with a tired boot
09:43that they're playing against.
09:44There's the whistle as the puck is frozen out.
09:50Officials getting ready to drop the puck.
09:52Puck possession so key in today's game.
10:00Play resumes here as he wins the drop inside the offensive zone.
10:04Slides the puck across to Obey Pavel.
10:08Passes it over.
10:11Pahal's going to play it against the half wall.
10:16Takes the beat.
10:18Can't get it to go.
10:19Quick feed to Henrik.
10:23St. Petersburg's got the puck.
10:28Henrik's carrying it ahead.
10:31Throws one up to Palat.
10:33Feeds the puck over to Kapanen.
10:36Looking to make something happen in the offensive zone.
10:39Dishes it all.
10:40And he puts that one aside with ease.
10:44St. Petersburg's got the puck along the boards.
10:54Quick pass across to Hughes.
10:58Shakes off of a cover with some nifty moves.
11:02Up along the wall on the right side and into the attacking area.
11:06The Devils gain control of the puck.
11:10Gets control of the puck here in his own end.
11:12Picked off.
11:14Moves it to Pearls.
11:16Scott Brown works.
11:18A timely finish and they've taken the lead.
11:21Sometimes you can feel momentum swing, James.
11:23You can tell that they're playing with more confidence.
11:26And as a result, they get a little puck puck and they put it in.
11:30Well, he fought for position to find this puck on his backhand, James.
11:33He's running out of real estate, but he was able to put it through and find the netting.
11:51And with the goal, he continues to extend that point-per-game streak against his rivals.
11:56Yeah, and he loves to see the reaction of his rivals.
11:58I think that's maybe why he enjoys doing it so much.
12:00There's a confidence, there's an air of both these games, and it's an underlying emotion.
12:05Everyone can feel it.
12:06And they're picked off in the neutral zone by Dedano.
12:09The Bears have it from their own end.
12:13Here they are on the attack.
12:15Here's the pass.
12:18Receives the pass.
12:21Through the neutral zone, moving the puck along the side.
12:23And they'll go the other way with a great play by Skrubel.
12:33First 20 minutes of play is in the box.
12:36Both teams get a chance to refresh and reset.

24:39oh the officials were all over that trip
24:41quick whistle stops the play
24:45Zavola's going to the box for tripping.
24:47Once the stick engages at the lower half of the leg or within the skates,
24:51you know it's going to be a tripping call.
25:03This power play is ranked top ten in the league, guys.
25:06They are extremely dangerous here.
25:08And with the first one of the night, let's see what happens.
25:12St. Petersburg's got possession here in their own end.
25:16Pucked away.
25:17Here's a chance to clear the puck from his own end.
25:20And he gets the job done.
25:22Big thumbs up clearing that one.
25:28The Paris gained possession of the defensive zone.
25:31Long lead pass to Glenn Denning.
25:38Tries to feed it across.
25:40Moves it on over to Brock.
25:43And now he tries to get it across to Meyer.
25:46That's the play across.
25:48Oh, he has the answer there with a fantastic stop.
25:52Hughes is back on the ice after some time off with his injury.
25:55And he gets right back to form there with a dangerous scoring chance right off the block.
25:59The Bears will try to shave a few seconds off this penalty now.
26:03Nice to play into that play.
26:08St. Petersburg's got possession of the puck.
26:11Great save by the Tindy and the Wraparound.
26:14Well, that's a strong push if you want to be able to do it first to both, kids.
26:17And that's exactly what he does to make the save.
26:20And a great save.
26:22Oh, how did he get it?
26:24Come on, man.
26:24What a stop by Mrazek.
26:26What a sequence.
26:27I mean, he has been outstanding making consecutive saves.
26:30I mean, his defense, they got to start playing.
26:34Losing it in front.
26:36And he demise that great opportunity there.
26:42Gets a stick on it.
26:43Oh, he kicked it out with the pad off that deflection.
26:47Can't hang on after that hit.
26:51Here's a chance.
26:52Oh, what a club saved by Mrazek.
27:17O'Brien's recognizing they're still shorthanded here as they get ready for the face-off.
27:26He sure's won the face-off here in the offensive zone.
27:29And gets in front of that one.
27:31Now, I didn't feel him go there.
27:32And if you want to be on a pique, you've got to make sure that you get to those shooting
27:35lengths hard and fast.
27:37Deflected away.
27:38Nice defensive use of the stick there.
27:41Mrazek's moving it ahead.
27:43From the right wing, he moves it to the middle.
27:46Mrazek's tied the slap shot.
27:49Makes the motor stop.
27:51Mrazek's been dialed in right from Peptalk, James.
27:54I mean, he's made the key saves that he's needed to make.
27:56And he's all about, for a tender, managing the momentum swings of the game.
27:59And the timeliness of the saves have really given his team an opportunity.
28:03Just here in the late stages of this frame, the next goal could be a big one as we are
28:08tied.
28:11The Devils will start off on the attack after winning the draw.
28:16They get it out of the defensive end.
28:18Slides it quickly to Mercer.
28:22St. Petersburg's got the puck.
28:25Moves it quickly over to Pahal.
28:28The Bears take it across the blue line.
28:35Slides the puck over.
28:36Game time stop.
28:38Does a great job with some great pushes to get to the top of his face and make the save
28:42from a high danger area.
28:44Shots are dead with the Pahal.
28:46What a stop.
28:47Well, the shooter's in a coveted spot on the ice right in the middle of it with a good look.
28:51And he makes an incredible save by getting square to the puck and turning it aside.
28:58Picked up along the way by Dastien.
29:01Oh, he steps up, but I'd love to stop that one.
29:07Berazic found his rhythm here as we look at that last save.
29:10I mean, he has to be so on the mark right now.
29:13Too positioned to be able to make it.
29:15His read is perfect.
29:16He's tracking well.
29:17We have to be quick and athletic to make that one.
29:25Puck possession so critical in today's game.
29:28And the official ready to drop the puck right here.
29:35Robertson's won the draw.
29:37Tape to tape feed on the blue line.
29:40Takes possession.
29:41Oh, and he whacks it away with the stick.
29:44Well, this is an incredible save, James.
29:46It's anticipation as well.
29:48Recognize that the shooter is in the low slot.
29:50Getting in front of it and making the save.
29:53Passes ahead from the right side.
29:55Here's the pass down low.
29:58Unable to reach that one.
30:00Angles it over to Pratt.
30:02The Devils are on the attack.
30:05Oh, had a chance to make a nice move, and the puck disagreed with him.
30:09Sometimes when you lose the puck, it's a product of trying to do too much.
30:13Sometimes you think it's time taking away.
30:15He comes up big.
30:18There's the buzzer.
30:19Two periods down.
30:20One more to go.
30:21They always say three is the magic number.
30:24And we've got period number three next.
30:36Four points for 10 to 19.
30:39Okay.
31:20All right.
31:47All right.
32:11All right.
32:41All right.
33:18All right.
33:19All right.
33:23All right.
33:29All right.
33:56All right.
34:54All right.
35:22All right.
35:25All right.
35:54And now he passes up to Vitz.
35:56Here's the chance on the attack.
35:59The Devils take possession in the defensive end.
36:03And he dodges the poke check there.
36:06Oh, excellent use of the stick.
36:08Oh, excellent use of the stick as he knocks that one away.
36:10Too easy with the glove.
36:13He's the puck.
36:14All right.
36:42And he can't play.
36:44Score!
36:44And we take a drive to Clutch City as they take the lead.
36:49Well, the lead is in their hands,
36:51and now it's about building off of that good shift management,
36:55dictating pace, controlling the offensive zone.
36:58Everything now is on the line.
37:01Well, this is an unlucky bounce, James.
37:03I mean, when you're a goaltender, you play your angles,
37:05you know your set positions, but you can't get set to scramble like this,
37:08and it winds up in the back of the net.
37:20St. Petersburg's got the lead here in period number three.
37:23So, Cheryl, do you protect or do you keep on pushing now?
37:26I think there's a fine balance here.
37:27I mean, you don't just want to play to hold on.
37:30You want to attack for the win, James,
37:31but you've got to recognize where you are on the ice,
37:33and you've got to trust who you put out there.
37:37Mercer's loving the puck.
37:39Slides it diagonally to Heischer.
37:42Puck dragged by Hamilton.
37:45Makes some space.
37:46What a stop.
37:48St. Petersburg's got a hold of it along the wall.
37:51The Devil's ready to go on the attack.
37:54First save, and the play continues.
37:57Denies it again.
37:59St. Petersburg's got a hold of the puck.
38:03Obey Cabell's got it in the offensive zone.
38:07Marstrom's got the puck, and he's going to hang on.
38:14The Devils have had more chances offensively,
38:17but they have not been able to convert trailing here in this third.
38:24St. Petersburg's won the drive, they'll go to work.
38:28Burroughs plays it against the boards.
38:31Sends it down low.
38:35The Devils have it now.
38:37Puck scooped up by Nosen.
38:40Sends it deep inside the offensive zone.
38:44St. Petersburg's regained possession of the puck.
38:52He takes it from the other side of the ball ride.
38:55Scores!
38:56And he hits the right track, and let those bats fly.
39:00Let him fly first time this season.
39:02James, he gets the trio in all different ways.
39:04Pretty unbelievable to fill the net three times.
39:08Wynn does a great job of maneuvering his body to get available in tight to the goaltender.
39:13Any time you're net front, you want to find a way to get your stick on a puck, this one
39:16-timer that he's able to get off,
39:18we can goaltender clean.
39:37Any time you're playing an arch-rival, you know that it's going to be a duel.
39:41A duel of the coaches and a duel of the team, and they lost the game last time.
39:44They're trailing in this one.
39:45And the coach now frustrated behind the bench.
39:48He knows this is war, and he wants to win it.
39:51Still lots of time left in the period.
39:54St. Petersburg's got a two-goal lead.
39:55They'd love to build on it.
39:59And they take control of the puck here in the neutral zone.
40:02And now it's over to Meyer.
40:06Handles it along the blue line.
40:08And he had the answer on that one.
40:10And as play continues, listen to these fans.
40:14He's starting to get loud and recognizing what we saw not long ago in his show.
40:19Yeah James, I mean, they're continuing to acknowledge the save he made earlier because they know the temperature of this
40:24game.
40:24Hey, the fans are now in it.
40:26They're all on board.
40:27And guess what?
40:28The goaltender knows it.
40:29He's over!
40:30And that one's turned away!
40:37Well that was a ten-bell save.
40:39We're gonna get to watch it again here on the replay, James.
40:41But man oh man, when you find the puck like that, and you have the instincts and urgency, and the
40:46desperation to attack it, that is one heck of a save.
41:03New Jersey's gotta be frustrated with how things have played out tonight trailing in this third period.
41:13Hughes has won the face off.
41:15And the puck dies with the Trapper save.
41:19Goaltenders work so much on their reaction time, that man, this is just a clinic right now as he flashes
41:24the glove and makes the save.
41:30Handles the puck!
41:33The Bears look around near the point!
41:37St. Petersburg's got the puck against the Bulldogs!
41:40Big time stop there!
41:43Myers got it through the neutral zone!
41:46Lead pass ahead!
41:48Huge steal in his own end!
41:52Gains the zone through the middle!
41:54Rams controlling it at the point!
41:59Moves into the slot!
42:01Oh, a clutch save!
42:03Oh, and a big stop!
42:05Another save!
42:06We got a whistle as the puck's frozen.
42:12That's an absolutely massive hit, James.
42:14These are the types of hits that can change the landscape of the game.
42:17The power of the legs right through the body.
42:20Lack of awareness there on the puck here.
42:29They'll be looking to keep that momentum going here in the face-off.
42:32After that last shift, James, were they really impressed?
42:34They want to continue right there, get pucks to the net, because this goaltender will not want to battle net
42:39front.
42:39He's outworked already.
42:41He slides it across to Hughes!
42:43Moves the puck across to Mercer!
42:47Gets the puck in deep!
42:50St. Petersburg's gained possession along the boards!
42:55Along the right wing, they enter the attacking area!
43:04Gets it to the other point!
43:06Quick feed to Cartier!
43:10Perron's got the puck in his own zone!
43:15St. Petersburg's looking to break out at their own end!
43:21And he takes the dish!
43:25Fires it!
43:26And makes the save!
43:28Puck is frozen and will get a face-off.
43:33Past the midway mark in this period.
43:36St. Petersburg's doubled up on them.
43:38It's now 4-2.
43:39Henrique's quick stick off the draw wins possession.
43:43New Jersey's playing it through the neutral zone.
43:46Puck skips into the bench and will get a reset.
43:51Burrows has been in and around the net all night long.
43:54And when you've got it on your stick and it seems to be dropping,
43:56you continue to shoot the puck.
43:57And that's exactly what he's doing.
43:59He's got three goals in this game so far.
44:01And you can tell that his line mates are trying to find him
44:03wherever he is on the ice.
44:19Let's see if we can pick up some momentum again here as the face-off is ready to go.
44:25Game play resumes as the puck is dropped.
44:29Here we go on that rush here.
44:31And that's taken by the defense.
44:35St. Petersburg's got the puck here on the open ice.
44:37Pushes it across to Stedland.
44:43St. Petersburg's got it along the wall.
44:46Slips by the chip.
44:48And that's intercepted by Siegenthaler.
44:50And he loses both the puck and his balance after that hit.
44:55Threws center along the wing.
44:57Moves it to Skinner.
45:01And he takes the feed.
45:03Just enough to keep it out there.
45:06St. Petersburg's got it in their own zone.
45:12Shakes himself free.
45:14Good hit.
45:16New Jersey's got the puck in their own end.
45:19Here's a short pass to Siegenthaler.
45:23Picked up by Stedland.
45:25Slides it on over to Kapanen.
45:28Moves it up through the middle for the right.
45:30Takes a couple of knocks and loses control.
45:36St. Petersburg's got the puck along the wall.
45:40Marstrom's gonna hang on to the puck for a whistle.
45:47This is a face-off they'll definitely want to win here inside the offensive zone.
45:55The Devils come up with the defensive zone draw.
46:01The Bears have it in the offensive end.
46:03Moves it quickly over to Lozon.
46:06The Bears played along the boards.
46:09Oh!
46:10I thought he had the corner and just missed.
46:12Well, it looked like he did.
46:14You can just see that inside leg just bare down.
46:17The bottom hand as well.
46:18But he's unable to convert.
46:21Here in the late going into the frame.
46:23We've got ourselves a 4-2 hockey game.
46:30And they'll start with possession.
46:33Burrows plays the puck.
46:35And he slides it quickly to Lozon.
46:39Moves close to the point.
46:43Takes that pass back to the point.
46:45Nearing the point.
46:47And he takes the feed.
46:51Oh, here's the score.
46:54Spock the post-hand!
46:56Well, it's a real sneaky one that filled the goaltender, James.
46:59I had novice room available, but that wasn't perfectly executed.
47:03I can't believe the time he had to walk into that one, James.
47:06He just lets it rip.
47:08Slapshot.
47:08No stick side.
47:09Beats a bullet clean.
47:28St. Petersburg's performance tonight still showing no signs of let-up here in this third period.
47:33Well, they've had such a progressive performance, James.
47:35It's been dominant in all areas of the ice.
47:37And there's been no lag or no let-up.
47:39The message has been clear by the coaching staff as well as everyone on the bench.
47:43Keep pushing.
47:46Now over to Glass.
47:48And the shot dies in the traffic jam.
47:51They've got Rippers here.
47:53To his teammate.
47:55Comes up with a stop.
47:58Tries to feed it over to Glass.
48:02And he catches the pass.
48:04Heads a cross over.
48:06Oh, what a save in front.
48:08Brasic's dialed in and outstanding at anticipating the play here, James.
48:12He recognizes exactly where the greatest threat is on the ice.
48:16It's a slot area.
48:17He gets the position and makes the save.
48:20St. Petersburg's got it against the boards.
48:23And that's just out of reach.
48:25Bratz taking it from his own end.
48:28New Jersey's moving it up the ice.
48:32And he loses his check with a spectacular move.
48:35Turned that one aside.
48:37The key to being a great goaltender is not giving up second shot opportunities.
48:41And it's playing the rebounds to the corner.
48:43He does an excellent job here.
48:45Quick pass to Samoa.
48:48Under a minute to go here in regulation time.
48:52Gives him nothing in front.
48:54A player should never be left alone in the slot.
48:56But man, is the goaltender to task here.
48:58Oh, what a save in the play.
49:00What?
49:01Brasic does absolutely everything he can to keep his team in this game.
49:04James, an unbelievable save.
49:06From the court, looks like something happened.
49:09That opportunity is rejected.
49:12Desperately trying to get out of the road in.
49:18Puts it on that.
49:20Spectacular stop by the goaltender.
49:22How did he hang on to that?
49:25What's the saying these days?
49:27Real recognizes real.
49:29Hands on their feet here in the final seconds.
49:32To salute.
49:33An incredible performance by the home team.
49:37The Devils have been the more active team offensively tonight.
49:40With plenty of scoring chances.
49:42But they continue to trail because they haven't finished late in this third period.
49:48Clay resumes as they win the drop here inside.
49:51Scores!
49:53Rips it off the pipe and into the net!
49:56Wow!
49:56We almost needed a double take there.
49:58James, when you hear that sound, sometimes you think it's out.
50:01But this one goes in.
50:03I can't tell you how many times this has happened to me, James.
50:06As the puck is coming towards you, it winds up hitting you.
50:09And goes off, it goes the other way.
50:11Fools the goaltender who doesn't have a chance.
50:25Both teams are set, they're ready to drop the puck.
50:36And off the faceoff, they take possession.
50:39Hold on this!
50:41And this one comes to an end!
50:45Curls drops a Hattie on group to the rim.
50:47A Hattie it was!
50:49And I'm telling you what, the opponent had no answer for him in the offensive zone.
50:52He dashed, he dangled, and he scored.
50:56This has really become one of the real premier party destinations in the hockey landscape.
51:01And here's a reason why.
51:03Look at this celebration here, Cheryl.
51:04And you gotta love this.
51:05I mean, the fans are there for you while you're playing the game.
51:08And you come back out to say thank you to them.
51:10And that'll do it from this one here tonight for all of us at EA Sports.
51:14I'm James Stavalski. Good night.
51:18And I fell asleep.
51:19And that's the biggest challenge.
51:39And that's how you all have happened.
51:45And that's the biggest challenge going on in this second today today.
51:46So, let's do a lot of deployments at Santa Claus Dolores.
