After a dismal first period, it was the Captain that gave the Canes the needed shot in the arse. My man scored a beautiful goal in the 2nd that helped to wipe away Tampa's 3-0 lead.
Then Cully, who told Tripp he wanted to get "a real goal" in tonight's game, scored the next one, followed by Eric Staal.
Unfortunately Sergei Samsonov flipped the puck over the glass and went to the box for delay of game with less than 2 minutes in regulation. That their team went on the power play at the very end did nothing to rouse a lackluster crowd.
We went into overtime and Ray Whitney made a sweet pass to Staalsy, who buried it.
Un-freakin-believable. Staal, Whitney and Brind'amour each put up 2 points, and the d-men make a nice showing in the form of Pitkanen and Seidenberg. And my new fave Ruutu notched an assist as well.
Can't wait for Monday night. Hub and I get to see the new jerseys and the Red Wings in person! Wooot!

I will be there, too. Hope they don't go down by 3 to the Red Wings, though. It was a beautiful comeback Saturday, but would be much harder tonight. The crowd will be wild with the dark jerseys. GO CANES!!
