Published on by Sports Radio ServiceLeave a comment

On the NHL Stanley Cup Playoff podcast with Len:

#1 The Florida Panthers and Carolina Hurricanes battled to well past 2:00 AM ET this morning in Raleigh in the NHL’s sixth longest game as the Panthers Matthew Tkachuk scored the game winner in the fourth overtime at 12.7 seconds left for the 3-2 win. 139 minutes 47 seconds of hockey.

#2 Len you got a look at this one and the players were just exhausted after two overtimes.

#3 It had to be a tough ending for Hurricanes goaltender Frederik Anderson when Tkachuk beat him within the final seconds of the fourth and final overtime. Anderson stood on his head during the four overtime periods stopping 57 out of 60 shots by the Panthers.

#4 Florida goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 63 shots out of 65. Bobrovsky did just enough in seven periods to keep the Hurricanes at bay in their own rink.

#5 This turned out to be a tooth and nail battle neither side giving an inch and playin for their lives all game long do you see game 2 coming up pretty much being that kind of a war and possibly going overtime again?
