00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:12,000
The New York Islanders faced the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden for the 1975

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,300
NHL Playoffs. Game 3 of the preliminary rounds of the Stanley Cup Playoffs took place on

4
00:00:17,300 --> 00:00:22,800
April 11, 1975. The Islanders and Rangers finished evenly matched during the regular

5
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:28,160
season, finishing in second and third place in the Patrick Division. The Rangers had qualified

6
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:33,880
for the playoffs for several years, but rarely were able to get past the semifinals. 1975

7
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,600
was the first time the Islanders had entered the playoffs, having just entered into the

8
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:42,640
league as a new expansion team in 1972. The best of three series was tied at one game

9
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,680
a piece. This audio recording is from the radio broadcast featuring announcers Marv

10
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,680
Albert and Sal Massina.

11
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,960
In the second period, Chicago Blackhawks lead the Boston Bruins 3-0, that game being played

12
00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:01,840
up in Boston. The series is even at one victory a piece. Later tonight, and this game was

13
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:06,520
originally scheduled for Saturday, has been changed to tonight. That'll start, I guess,

14
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:11,420
11 o'clock New York time. It'll be Toronto Maple Leafs at the LA Kings. That series tied

15
00:01:11,420 --> 00:01:17,600
at one game a piece with LA and Toronto both winning overtime games. Last night, Pittsburgh

16
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:22,760
beating St. Louis 5-3 and they clinched that series two games to none. That about does

17
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:27,560

will be on ice in just a moment. We'll be back after this break.

26
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:18,640
The people of Eastern believe they're going to make your next Eastern flight a great flight.

27
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:22,240
We don't waste time on the ground, so you won't waste time getting in the air. When

28
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,760
you're bags are with me, you've got to believe they'll be okay. Part of my job at Eastern

29
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:31,640
is solving travel problems. If you've got one, call me. If there's a small piece of

30
00:02:31,640 --> 00:02:37,640
styrofoam, I'm going to find it and take it. You've got to believe. You've got to be ready

31
00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:45,560
to fly Eastern. If you're flying to Florida, Eastern can give you more than any other airline,

32
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,720
with the most daily non-stops to cities in Florida, including Miami, Fort Lauderdale,

33
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:55,280
Jacksonville, Tampa, St. Petersburg, West Palm Beach, Sarasota, and Orlando, home of

34
00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:00,280
Walt Disney World. Take a money-saving Eastern night coach to most cities in Florida and

35
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:06,200
save about 20% off the regular day coach airfare. For reservations to Florida, call the travel

36
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:15,400
agent or call Eastern the wings of man. The officials have hit the ice. The referee tonight

37
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:23,320
is Bruce Hood, and the linesmen are Neil Armstrong and Ray Schiapponello. The Niners and Allamers

38
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:31,800
leading in the final game of the 74-75 season for one of these clubs. The victor takes the

39
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:38,120
first round, two games to one of them, goes on to round number two and solve several possibilities

40
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:43,320
as to who the winner here tonight, the Rangers or the Allamers, would meet in round number

41
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,680
two. Here we go talking about possibilities again, Bob. And right now with Boston trailing

42
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:54,000
Chicago, if either LA or Boston lose, the Rangers or the winner of tonight's game will

43
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:00,640
play Montreal. If LA and Boston win, both teams win, the winner of this game will play

44
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,680
Montreal. And if both LA and Boston lose, the winner of this game will play Pittsburgh.

45
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:13,400
All games opening on Sunday. It's a wild situation. I really think the end result has paid off

46
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,080
for the national hockey league. The playoff structure has worked very well. The problem

47
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:23,000
is though that no one, absolutely no one understands the means to the end. And Bob, it's funny,

48
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,960
you have a scout in the past, you know you would play the winner of another series, you

49
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:32,840
just go scout that series. Here the NHL clubs have to scout every series. We'll talk to

50
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:37,600
Jack Riley, a Pittsburgh scout, between the second and third periods tonight. He's gone

51
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,160
to each series. He was at the Chicago Boston game last night, which he said was a great

52
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:46,880
game. Actually, the Toronto LA game last night, which he said was a great game. So very complicated

53
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:51,760
situation, but very interesting for all the fans. Particularly now with the Chicago Broncos

54
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:58,560
in a surprise, leading the Boston Bruins by the score of 3-0 in the second period. The

55
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,360
Blackhawks were felt at a round of it opening game, getting blasted by the score of 8-2.

56
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:08,760
They won it overtime last night. And I tell you, of course, Billy Ray has got to be doing

57
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,760
one of the great coaching jobs of the season. Bob, I thought they would be blown out of the

58
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:17,760
ice even in Chicago last night. They blew a 3-1 lead. So Boston tied it up and they went

59
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,760
into overtime and they won it. Esposito must be giving them the goaltending they needed.

60
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:27,760
I hear Gilles Gilbert, who's pretty shaky throughout the season, is having a shaky series

61
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:33,760
or had a shaky game last night. Rangers and other out-of-this have hit the ice. Joe Villamue

62
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,760
are leading the Rangers on and he will be in that tonight to find him a goal to our left.

63
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:42,760
And Al Arbor of the out-of-this coming back with goaltender Billy Smith for this third

64
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:48,760
and final game. And the Antilas in the first period will defend the goal to our right.

65
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:53,760
So the Rangers will skate left to right. And the Antilas from right to left. You're hearing

66
00:05:53,760 --> 00:06:01,760
it all right here on WNEW, Metromedia Radio in New York, 11.30 on the dial.

67
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:08,760
Tomorrow afternoon, the Knicks and the Rockets at Houston, third and final game of that series.

68
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:15,760
And you'll hear it right here, WNEW airtime at 20 minutes past 1 o'clock.

69
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:21,760
Right now the capacity crowd here at Madison Square Garden getting to its feet.

70
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:27,760
And we shall hear the playing and singing of our national anthem.

71
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:39,760
The home of the brave and the brave.

72
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:48,760
Oh, say can you see, by the dawn's early light,

73
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:56,760
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,

74
00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:04,760
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,

75
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:12,760
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming,

76
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:20,760
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

77
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:28,760
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

78
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:39,760
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,

79
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:56,760
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

80
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,760
Well, so the crowd is sky high once again tonight.

81
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,760
Well, it was sky high last night.

82
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,760
And Tuesday night we remarked on how we thought it was the loudest crowd

83
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,760
game here at the new Madison Square Garden.

84
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,760
Oh, it's a two-step run.

85
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,760
Rony Harris comes over and he's decked by Parisi.

86
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,760
Plunk is loose back behind that Ranger goal line.

87
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,760
Harris falls on top of it and players call.

88
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,760
Face off coming up now to the right of the Ranger net.

89
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,760
And Ronnie Harris playing in place of the injured Nick Beverly.

90
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,760
And last night a tremendous game for Ronnie Harris.

91
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,760
Scored the fourth Ranger goal, hitting all night long.

92
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,760
And Nick Beverly still has problems with his leg.

93
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,760
It only saw a couple of shifts last night.

94
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,760
And I see Harris playing tonight,

95
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,760
so it looks like Ronnie will be playing throughout the game.

96
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:18,760
Deep in range, Harris up with it up the near side, looks to clear it ahead, he does, rolls it out to center, taken by the backskating Lewis, ahead for Gruen, a lead for Westphalen across the Ranger line, the pass too deep, Vickers gets to it, rolls it around the board.

97
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:39,760
Parisi and Harris come together on the corner, smack back behind that Ranger goal, on Westphal takes, drives to center, intercepted by Vickers and he starts up with Rattell at Gilbert on his right, Vickers across the out of the line, shoots in, left side of Smith, Westphal chases it down, takes a bump from Gilbert and rolls it out of the zone, and center, Vickers pull the Rangers, cross-ice now for Gilbert.

98
00:09:39,760 --> 00:10:08,760
Gilbert makes the turn, loses control, Lewis backs it back to center, Parisi and Harris come together and neither can get to the park, Gilbert comes away with it, flips to the left defense to Park, Park ahead for Rattell, holds it away from the checky Marshall, leads Gilbert, it hits his skate, bounds all the way down across the out of the goal line, Lewis is back for it, Lewis moves to the near side, takes a check from Rattell, throws it ahead to Gruen, Gruen now a flip for Parisi, Parisi has difficulties, it's snapped away by Gilbert, Park still in the out of the ice, now the out of the line,

99
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:38,760
comes up with it and Marshall moves to center, a flip for the left defense for Lewis and Lewis loops it in, left side of Villamur allowing for an out of the line change, Vickers back forward, rolls it around now for Kachuk, cross-ice for Fairburn, kicks it ahead to himself and shoots in, it's slapped down by Dennis Puckman who sends to center, Sanderson there, loses on a stick check, the puck still loose, taken by Puckman, ahead it goes now to center-ice to Bourne, Bourne is checked by Marat, loses control and Kachuk takes, spins to his own goal,

100
00:10:38,760 --> 00:11:08,760
Kachuk around Bourne at center, now drops for Sanderson and he throws it in, right side of Smith, Smith looks it behind the net for Puckman, he comes off the board and it's picked up by Bourne, he's to center with Gillies right, across the range a lot of back pass for Gillies, knocked away now in front it goes, shot on goal from in close by Harris, is stopped by Villamur and Greshner comes up with it, Greshner spinning back behind as that bothered by the stick of Harris, now cuts to the near side, he's hit there by Gillies, Greshner and Gillies start to go at each other,

101
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:38,760
the play continues as Sanderson tries to leap back but it's knocked away, comes back to center and it's taken by Marat, Marat puts on the stick of Kachuk, Kachuk spinning, a drop for Marat still at center-ice and he shoots in, no score, we're 2.45 into this first period, now Jerry Hart takes it back behind the outer net, watch by Kachuk, shoots it on the right wing for Harris, Harris up to center, Harris looks to lead St. Laurent, knocked away, now he shoots in as he is hit hard by Marat and he ends up in the ranger bench,

102
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:55,760
Jerry Hart, by Harris, was really clobbered by Gill Marat and he ended up skates first, tumbling over the sideboard and into the ranger bench, over train of Frank Pace, Rangers and Outerless are laughing it up right now.

103
00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:06,760
Jerry Hart with a big smile on his face, actually he went in head first, Marvin skates up in the air and his skates came down on top of Frank Pace's head, I never saw Frank move so fast trying to get out of the way of that one.

104
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:23,760
Well there's a memorable moment in the career of Billy Harris, he's alright physically and that's where the glass cuts in, there's an angle there, just a little triangular corner where Harris went in, he didn't have the room of the full bench or a player to fall on.

105
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:53,760
Alright face off now at the ranger line controlled by Park, Park cross-eyes for Harris, Harris a lead for Stemkowski at center, sends to Butler, knocked away by Howard, Howard tries to clear, gets it off to the ranger line but Park there, a hit for Urban hits his skate, comes back forward, back pass for Harris, a return for Park at the far boards, a hit for Stemkowski and he shoots it in, right side of the island and that, Marshall and Urban come together, Marshall beats Urban to it, winds it around for Howard, Howard starts up for the islanders on the left wing, most of the time he's on the left wing,

106
00:12:53,760 --> 00:13:12,760
he's at the center, right wing, three nice from across the ranger line, fakes the slap on Parkman, loses control, Park is retrieved by Park at the far side, he overskates as he's hit by Nicegram, Park still loose at the far boards, a battle picked off by Marshall, he feeds in close, broken up beautifully by Butler knocking it away from St. Laurent who is stationed in the slot.

107
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:30,760
And now Park hit from behind by Howard able to unleash it to Harris and here's Harris out of the zone, three man rush for the Rangers, Harris shoots in, a chase for the Puck, Stemkowski after beating to it, Urban recovers the shot as a cut save and a beauty by Smith to hold on, that time a mix up by the islanders on the back line nearly cost them.

108
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:46,760
Burt Marshall sprawling, sprawl right by the Puck, Smith just had his glove there and Urban shot it right into it and he made that reaction but he made the save that's going to make him, give him that little bit of confidence, that's the first shot on goal the Rangers have had and we've played three minutes of 59 seconds.

109
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:54,760
Jerry Butler breaking up a play in front of the ranger end, that play developed because Butler was hanging out in center zone looking to break away on a Brad Park pass.

110
00:13:54,760 --> 00:14:08,760
Rattell and West ball on the space off, keeping out on the ice, loose up the circle now Rattell gets it to the point, a crash there, he shoots, sticked aside by Smith, Puck ends up in the corner, Rattell comes over, battles with Bruin and the islanders able to clear it out of the zone.

111
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:17,760
Marant is back four, Marant shoots it ahead, Rattell could not get to it and carries all the way down, left side of Smith, Park now takes back behind the islander net.

112
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:34,360
Watched by the forechecking Rattell, this Rattell, Gilbert, Vickers line had a tremendous night last night at the Coliseum. Here's Dennis Puckman out of the zone, a leap for Bruin at center, Bruin on the rush across the ranger line, a feed for Parisi, Parisi comes into the corner, now feeds it back, Dennis Puckman,

113
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:49,360
Bruin takes it away, out to the point to Hart, he slaps it, it's deflected short and Rattell takes, Parisi and Greshner getting involved in front of the ranger net and now Marant starts up in the loose part, here's Marant leading Gilbert at center, Gilbert gets it, boosts the lead number nine.

114
00:14:49,360 --> 00:15:08,360
A leap for Rattell, he comes in, he shoots, kicks it, by Billy Smith, that's a big save with Rattell stopped on a breakaway. Now here's Bruin to center, he's up to the ranger line, takes a hard check from Greshner, sends to the corner, it bounds behind the ranger goal line, Vickers there, swings it around the boards, intercepted by Westpaw, out it goes to Bruin, slaps stopped by Villamur.

115
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:27,360
Good save by the stick of Joe Villamur, Rangers can't clear, Bruin tries to keep it, it's knocked away by Greshner, it comes to center, as the out of this change on the fly, Bourne picks up the loose part, Bourne flies up across the ranger line, breaks for the far side, now holds up, cross-ice pass broken up by the stick of Rattell and taken by Greshner who comes in out of center.

116
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:39,360
Here's Rattell, Vickers left, Fabburn right, across the out of the line, a drop for Vickers, Vickers breaking wide on Hart, moves to the near side, now throws in front for Rattell, he turns, could not get the shuttle out the park, his shot rolls wide.

117
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:53,360
On the rebound, a chase by Gillies of the island, slaps it out of danger, out to center ice, Harris back forward, ball to the ranger, stick handles and Bourne, ahead it goes to Kachuk, Kachuk is up to the out of the line, Kachuk cuts in with Fabburn the prele, he and Hart bump as he moves to the near corner.

118
00:15:53,360 --> 00:16:04,360
Kachuk cuts for Havanet in front, Fabburn struck, it's stopped, rebound, Sanderson is blocked by Hart, ends up in the corner, Dennis Putnam there, flicks it along the boards and out of the zone he counts it after minutes, and into the line.

119
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:15,360
The out of is in front, a force to ice the puck, the touch made by Hart, and we'll get a whistle on the face off coming up now, deep and out of the ice, no score, first period, six minutes gone by, let's pause for this world.

120
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:31,360
Alka-Seltzer brings you a message from the old one too. Well, your first flat in 15 years, so you're holding up traffic for miles, and your wife is waiting with your favorite dinner, burnt lasagna. We'll be right there with the old one too.

121
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:46,360
Alka-Seltzer, let's get out of here. For aches and pains with upset stomach, try Alka-Seltzer with specially buffered aspirin plus antacids, use only as directed. It gives the old one too, the old one too.

122
00:16:46,360 --> 00:17:01,360
This is Marv Albert with Sal Masina for Madison Square Garden in New York, the season on the line for both the Rangers and the Outers right here, third and final game of the best two out of three, and we are scoreless with six minutes gone by, first period. Rangers have had the better of play thus far.

123
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:30,360
On the draw, sent back behind the out of the goal line, Lewis there, chased by Kacuk, loses control, loses to Kacuk, slides it to the slot to Faber and he's dumped down the play, cannot get to it, kept alive by the Rangers, then Gillies takes it away from Sanderson, sprints to center, he's up across the Ranger on a drive, six save made by Villanueva, lost it momentarily, and then he clears it into the corner, Harris there, for the Rangers, looks to make his move on forward and he does, goes along the board, throws it ahead now for Kacuk, he's to center, back pass for Harris, cuts him with a drive, whoops, save made by Villanueva.

124
00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:38,360
Save made by Smith, and he holds on, Billy Smith with a sweeping glove, did not expect Harris to shoot what he did.

125
00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:50,360
Rodney got that off quickly, a quick snapshot, low, Smith making a glove save in front of his pad and Ron Harris penetrating twice, that time he gave it to Kacuk and he ran it back and he used his strength to get through and take that shot.

126
00:17:50,360 --> 00:18:03,360
It's incredible how once again, Ron Harris, during the course of playoffs, is a different hockey player, of course he had all kinds of injuries this season, but he is a real money player.

127
00:18:03,360 --> 00:18:16,360
Chicago now leading Boston 5-3 at the end of 2, on the face, Rangers control, it's sent to the right point, Harris cannot handle it, bounce over a stick, Harris to center, chase for the puck, Harris beats Gillies to it, and Leesberger, Kacuk.

128
00:18:16,360 --> 00:18:28,360
Cross-ice off the boards now for Park, Park bothered by Marshall, stick checks it away, and Marshall shoots it in, left side of Villamur, Gill makes the stop behind the goal for Harris, and Lees for Kacuk.

129
00:18:28,360 --> 00:18:41,360
Now Kacuk tries a return pass that is knocked aside by Howitt, Harris recovers ball, the Rangers slides it out to center, and Marshall is there to flag it down, a hit for St. Laurent at the Ranger line, he's bottled up by Park, and the loose puck retrieved by Kacuk.

130
00:18:41,360 --> 00:18:54,360
A hit for Fairburn, checked off the play by Hart, good play by Hart, he's hacked that now by Fairburn, and knocks it away from Hart, Marshall takes, shoots it out to center to Nice, from Lees St. Laurent, and across the Ranger line, stick handles in, but the back end of it is wide.

131
00:18:54,360 --> 00:19:03,360
On the rebound, St. Laurent crushed against the boards by Greshner, Howitt comes over, along with Stankowski, they combine to freeze it, and play his call.

132
00:19:03,360 --> 00:19:18,360
Some words in the corner between Howitt, Greshner, and Stankowski, their developments further, then some articulation, and we'll get a face off now to the left side of Jules Villamur, 12 and a half remaining, first period, no score.

133
00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:31,360
And that's the first trace of any pushing and shoving by a player, we've had some good body checks, but no fighting as we did last night, and there were many fights last night, about five to my recollection.

134
00:19:31,360 --> 00:19:41,360
Now St. Laurent and Stankowski are in the play side, and St. Laurent jumps the gun, so Nice from steps in, that's the play of Greshner from Fairburn, as they cross-hike for the wrap.

135
00:19:41,360 --> 00:19:58,360
Shoots it ahead now to Stankowski, stunner, a right wing feed for Butler, he's in across the outer line, loses on a poke check, kept it off by Urban, he swings it over the corner, looks to Sonny, he's taken out of the play by Hart, and Urban throws the bat hard, with his hand, we get a whistle, and the opponent are coming.

136
00:19:58,360 --> 00:20:07,360
This would indicate that Urban took a punch at Howard, which was the case, and the Rangers will be down a man.

137
00:20:07,360 --> 00:20:22,360
Well, he is, Howard, looking to see what kind of a signal the hood is giving as far as the penalty, it could be a roughing call, but Teddy Urban going off, it's a roughing penalty, exactly for throwing that fist, as you mentioned.

138
00:20:22,360 --> 00:20:47,360
The Islanders will have the man advantage two minutes for roughing 746, the call on Ted Urban, face off coming up now outside the New York Islander blue line, St. Laurent at center, Howard, and Nice from out the wings, Dennis and John Putnam at the points, and a defense with the crowd here at the guard, Sanderson at number one, Park and Harris are back.

139
00:20:47,360 --> 00:21:17,360
On the face, Howard controls the center, eludes Harris, but loses on a stick check, sent back to center, St. Laurent up with a chutes in, knocked down by Villamur, and then he winds it around the boards, Howard and Harris come together, Park is loose on the corner, it still is out to the point, the puttman, his shot goes wide out of the flexion, on the rebound, Puttman looks to clear it, cannot, kept him out, Puttman, his shot is a kick save made by Villamur, just to get a piece of the skate, it's pulled around the boards, John Puttman takes, sent back to home, and after this, Villamur comes out, stick it aside, hits it out,

140
00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:34,360
puttman, he's back to the corner, Howard is there, he's checked by Harris, Howard turns, throws in the slot, intercepted by Park, he loses control, but it's recovered by Sanderson, he leaves Puttman, Puttman traces it down, and then Smith, Smith beats Puttman to it, Smith has a position, Smith shoots through the net, and it's left aside by the stick of Puttman.

141
00:21:34,360 --> 00:21:49,360
A nice between Butler and McColton, Smith, and Smith just did beat him, now here are the out of the back, St. Laurent from center shoots in left side of Villamur, played off the boards by Nicebrom, back pass to the board, John Puttman, a high drive, his deflected drive, on the rebound, it's Harris, for the Rangers, and he guns it all the way down.

142
00:21:49,360 --> 00:22:16,360
We have 50 seconds remaining on that Ranger penalty to Teter, and both of them make changes on the move, John Puttman back to the rebound, and his foul play, on the crisscross starts up with Gruen, now feeds Gruen at center, Gruen swings to his right side, a drop for Puttman, and he shoots in, left side of Villamur, he makes the stick stop, leaves for Greshner, banks it around the board, batted back in by Westphal, behind the Ranger goal line, Greshner there, swings it around for Sanderson, looks to clear, and he does.

143
00:22:16,360 --> 00:22:46,360
Puttman to center, here's a chase between Dennis Puttman and Billy Faber, Puttman beats Faber into it, cuts into the corner, now looks to move up by 6th century, pass Faber, he's to center, he stick him, he's up to the range line, a drop for Gruen at the right point, he goes into the crowd, it is Brad, right side of Villamur, bounds off the glass, ends up on the near side, Parisi keeps it in, he is bothered by Greshner, can't clear, comes to Puttman, it closed Gruen, knocked away, Bucke still is, Greshner bats it away from Parisi, Parisi back forward in the corner now, rules it out to the point, Dennis Puttman is shot, is blocked by Faber, taken off by Greshner,

144
00:22:46,360 --> 00:23:04,360
the Rangers break out a three-on-two led by Greshner, moves up to the out of the line, a back pass for Irvin, but a whistle for an offside, Irvin is back, and as he cut in across that item of low line, an offside whistle blown, and he'll bring a back face off coming up now, offside the item of blue man.

145
00:23:04,360 --> 00:23:08,360
Ten minutes nine seconds remaining in this first period with no score.

146
00:23:08,360 --> 00:23:25,360
Irani Greshner with some key defensive plays, one time Westfall had Villamur down, Greshner coming back to pick up Westfall's stick, ironic situation on that breakaway by Butler, or the race for the puck, had Butler touched the puck first, it would have been a face off in the Ranger end for a two line or an offside pass.

147
00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:55,360
Now Rattell is back with Vickers left, Joe Bear right, Ron Harris, Brad Park on the back line, the Islanders make a line change, Andres St. Laurent stepping on with Bob Nicebroom on the right, Gary Howard left, Burt Marshall, Dave Lewis are back on the face off controlled by the Islanders, Marshall ahead for St. Laurent, Park falls down, St. Laurent moves up to the Ranger line, but he's met there by Rattell who kicks it aside, and it ends up at center ice, picked off by St. Laurent across the ice now and across the Ranger line, back pass nicely,

148
00:23:55,360 --> 00:24:10,360
Nicebroom shot blocked by Park, good play by Brad as he starts up away from Nicebroom, moves to center, loses on a stick check however with Nicebroom coming back to break it up, and now a two line pass thrown by Lewis and cut it for the cutting, Howard, and we get a whistle for offside.

149
00:24:10,360 --> 00:24:24,360
John Rattell with a goal and three assists last night, that itself tells a story, but John is skating so strong, that time Brad Park falling down, Rattell going in to break up the play, here's something else this year, he's never been this strong so late in the hockey season.

150
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:39,360
Walter Kachruth also showing some signs of coming back strong because Walter really had his problems the last six, seven weeks of the regular season and he looks extremely strong right now, on the face off Vickers at the far side, can't control, it's slapped out of the zone,

151
00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:55,360
Gilbert back forward, circles at center, met by the checking Parisi hacking away as Gilbert backhands it in, it's behind the goal tender Smith, taken by Lewis, whips it around the boards for Drewan, cuts away from the checking Gilbert, rolls it across ice now to Marshall, he's checked by Gilbert,

152
00:24:55,360 --> 00:25:09,360
I don't know, it's in very deliberate fashion looking to get it out of the zone and finally they do, it's sent to center, wrist burn, it snaps it ahead, loses on a stick check now to Vickers, across the line with a pass for Rattell, he tries to back pass but it's intercepted by Drewan,

153
00:25:09,360 --> 00:25:38,360
Drewan over skates, he throws it away, he shoots save made, lost by Smith and the defenseman Lewis started to fall on it, now Smith does, our giveaway almost cost the out of this, Parisi giving it away and Vickers with the shot is a funny situation, all the Rangers sort of let up, the puck dropped behind Smith of course, Vickers the only Ranger in the zone as both Rattell and Gilbert trying to come back to back check and Lewis didn't want to fall on it, finally he said Smith fell on it,

154
00:25:38,360 --> 00:25:55,360
but not a Ranger within 15 feet of Smith running down, Rattell 58 remaining first period, no score, Parthorn and Walter Kachuk on this face right side of the outlander net and it's controlled by Gillies of the islanders to center with Harris right, up across the Ranger line breaks wide on Kreschner,

155
00:25:55,360 --> 00:26:17,360
an angle shot is stopped by the chest of Villamur and Kachuk on the rebound clears it out, Faber at center, Leeds Polis breaking it across the other end, he shoots, stick save made by Smith, a great save by Billy Smith and Drewan able to clear it out of the zone, Marat takes it at center, flicks in but the Rangers ahead of the play at offside, well it's a sharp night thus far for Islander goaltender Billy Smith.

156
00:26:17,360 --> 00:26:32,360
A lot of conjecture about who Al Alba was going to use in the nets tonight for the Islanders and he came up with Billy Smith and he's made the wise choice so far, Billy's super so far, good saves on Rattell, kind of good save on Polis and keeping the Islanders in a hockey game with some beauties.

157
00:26:32,360 --> 00:27:00,360
Kachuk the center, Polis left, Faber on right, Marat and Kreschner are back for the outlanders, Bourne at center, Billy Harris right, Gillies left, Dennis Pumpkin on the right defense and Hart on the left side and on the face off at center ice it is Harris and Kachuk, played by Hart back at the out of the line, watched by the forechecking Kachuk, slides it ahead and is sent to by Polis, Leeds Kreschner at the out of the line goes over the slab, whoops save made by Smith and he holds on.

158
00:27:00,360 --> 00:27:21,360

That's command credit from Manufacturers Hanover. It is banking the way you want it to be member FDIC equal opportunity lender. On the face high drive by Faber, knocked down by Smith and the out of the clear it out, Kreschner then shoots it right back in, right side of Smith, Dennis Pumpkin is back for it, rolls it around the board, Hart is there, heart check by Kachuk returns to Pumpkin, Pumpkin in traffic, comes ahead ends up at center and Kreschner takes there, Kreschner's passed battled away by Gillies recovered by Kreschner, back at center.

160
00:27:50,360 --> 00:28:02,360
Back at the range of eye, watched now by Bourne, shoots it ahead for Faber, leaf for Polis, he's to the out of the line, breaks in with a shot, back to flex short with Kachuk turned around and pooped by Gillies in a penalty up-gather.

161
00:28:02,360 --> 00:28:26,360
What Gillies, Hanover and out of Kachuk, and the Rangers for the first time tonight will have the man advantage. A fortunate penalty for Gillies to take, Polis saw that, got that puck at the blue line, when he gets that puck at the blue line he looks at nothing else but net. Kachuk had to step on Gillies and he was covering, Gillies covering Kachuk all the way in but a little too much with the arms and he threw out of Kachuk down.

162
00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:52,360
12-17, time of the penalty, they are calling it interference on Gillies. Well in contrast to last night's game as anticipated, this is a very cautious hockey game, so both teams playing it calm, they want to win the hockey game, fighting is out so far this evening and here's the first range of power play opportunity, let's see if they can make it pay off.

163
00:28:52,360 --> 00:29:21,360
On the face and in front Billy Smith winds it back behind the net, Lewis there, checked by Middleton, tries to clear Kanak, kept in by Park. Park pulls the string, turns on Henning, cuts to the left corner, Henning falls down, now Park leads Gilbert, Gilbert shoots it wide, on the rebound comes back to Park, he shoots, save made by Middleton in front, pushed aside by Lewis, Park sent to the corner, battle for a fair, Lewis tries to clear Kanak, never met Gilbert, sends it back to the court, delivered it by Lewis, who pulls it ahead for Westphal, the lead for Henning.

164
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:40,360
At center, Henning loses control and Gilbert takes it back, the Rangers will have to start the power play all over, another penny remaining on that Gillies penalty, Gilbert starts up, Rangers skate left to right ahead, Middleton breaking up center, back pass Ratel, he cuts in, feeds it from Pickens, save and a beauty by Smith, and he holds on.

165
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:57,360
He just camped himself in front of the cage, he anticipated beautifully, Ratel with a smooth backhand pass out to Pickens in front, Pickens had no place to put it but right into Billy Smith, and he has been sharp in his first period.

166
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:26,360
6.54 remaining first period, Rangers and Islanders are schoolless, a minute 11 remaining on the penalty for Clark Gillies, Ratel and Westphal will go on the space off now, left side of Billy Smith, on the draw, sent in front, Smith looks to clear and he does, Park might have batted down but could not, and it carries all the way down, Gilbert back forward now for the Rangers, Gilbert with a drop pass, dangerous pass, had Henning been another step behind,

167
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:41,360
he would have had an interception in front of Villamur, however the Rangers move back, Middleton cuts in, a lead for Ratel, knocked back the other way, Gilbert takes it on the boards, loses on a stick check and Henning able to slide it all the way down, 45 seconds remaining now on that Islander penalty.

168
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:56,360
Park is back forward, a lead now for Ratel, Ratel starts up with Gilbert back to Ratel, moving up center, over skates, has the puck knocked over by Westphal, recovered by Vickers, but a whistle for an offside as Vickers made the touch, he was ahead of the play at offside, but bring it back.

169
00:30:56,360 --> 00:31:00,360
Let's step out right here and pause for station identification.

170
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:10,360
Oh what a great, this is Gene Craven, this, this, folks it's so exciting, I don't mean WNEW New York where you're hearing the game, I mean my show every morning from 5.30 to 10, folks don't leave me.

171
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:19,360
Marv Albert, Sal Massina, Madison Square Garden in New York, 6 minutes 17 seconds left, first period, Rangers and Islanders no score.

172
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:37,360
On the face off, Rangers shoot in, they have the man advantage, Hart Christi, clear cannot, kept in by Middleton, gets off to Ratel, Ratel spins up an airboard, speaks with the goal line of Middleton, Middleton tries to center, Vickers could not control Westphal first, and he starts up, shoots it out to center, center forward, Henning is too deep and Gilbert is back forward.

173
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:59,360
Just 15 seconds down on that Gilly's penalty, here's Gilbert out of the zone as the Rangers change on the go, ahead it goes to Park, Park is up to the out of the line, Park around Westphal, back pass for Gilbert, Gilbert tries to return to Park, knocked away by Popman, looks to Finip, penalty has expired as Gilly's returns, the park is frozen at the far corner, and play is gone.

174
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:17,360
The Islanders did a very good job in killing off that penalty. And Lorne Henning and Eddie Westphal as they did here Tuesday night, keeping the Rangers bottled up, the one good opportunity the Rangers did get was on that break, with Ratel being set up by Middleton and then Ratel feeding Vickers in front, Gilly Smith was there.

175
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:37,360
Now the face off, right side of Smith, St. Laurent will go against Stemkowski, on the draw comes to Marotta for left, backs up and then shoots in back behind the Islander, Popman there now with Stemkowski, they turn each other around, Irvin comes over to try to dig it loose, but we got a whistle from Bruce Hootie lost sight of it.

176
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:50,360
And that means face off, deep in Islander ice, five and a half remaining, first period, no score, again St. Laurent against Stemkowski, someone jumped the gun and they'll do it again.

177
00:32:50,360 --> 00:33:06,360
The Natsman race, Stepanella sets them up once again on the draw, Stem in front, knocked aside by Smith, Dennis Popman rolls it around the board, Brechner able to keep it, sends the button, angle drive on the screen goes wide, flagged down by Nystrom at the far board, close to center, now up across the Ranger,

178
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:36,360
and I believe it flipped out of the post, shot really was not that close, it was off the outside of the post, the crowd roared, Millenville was surprised because he thought it went way wide, now here's Irvin to center, Irvin up to the out of the line, Irvin goes in and drive his line, on the rebound it comes back to the right point, Butler cannot get to it, Nystrom does, Nystrom moves it out of the zone, but it's recovered by Brechner at center, feeds cross-ice now to Marotta, head it goes to Irvin, Irvin lead for

179
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:53,360
Butler, takes it now over states and Satter out of the lab, and the out of the zone, McVilliman and Brechner come together at center, they both hit the ice, Hatt works it free, spins it as Irvin and shoots it out to the right wing, Nystrom, Nystrom up to the range of arm of the slap, save made off the right pans of Villamur, leaves for Sanderson,

180
00:33:53,360 --> 00:34:23,360
moves it around the boards to Faber, Faber starting up for the Rangers, met by Saint Laurent at center, his pass stolen by Lewis, Lewis back the other way, fans on the pass, take it away by Marotta, Marotta goes in with Faber, Faber across the out of the line with a slap and a slap by Gillies, and he clears it out of the zone, at center it's Sanderson and he dumps it right back in, left side of Billy Smith, Lewis and Faber in pursuit, heart check by Faber on Lewis, Puck ends up on the stick of Burt Marshall and he sends it ahead, here's Bourne out of the zone, Nystrom right and Gillies left, a leap for Gillies,

181
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:35,360
he cuts it, he fakes, shoots, scores! Clark Gillies beating Cheryl Villamur between his pads, between his legs and the Islanders lead it 1-0.

182
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:51,360
Rangers getting caught in deep, all three forwards going for the net, the play busted up by Burt Marshall, he got the puck out and the three on two developing, Gillies getting a shot from the angle, when you penetrate and all three forwards go in, that's what could happen, Sanderson, Faber,

183
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:56,360
Kachuk all getting caught on a play and a great goal by Clark Gillies, good set up by Bob Bourne.

184
00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:08,360
Mark Gillies who scored the game winner here Tuesday night on a breakaway, splitting through the defense, has rarely hurt the Rangers this season, and this rookie has come a long way the last few months.

185
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,360
Gillies has put the Islanders on top 1-0.

186
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:29,360
Time of the goal, 16 minute mark, on the face off, Marker rolls it in, right side of Villamur, chased down by Harris, he ranks it away and the Natives now for Kachuk, Kachuk the lead for Sanderson, Sanderson guns one in, it's blocked down low by Smith, Smith drops it back behind the net now for Lewis,

187
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:58,360
Lewis watched by the foretracking, Faber shoots it ahead, ends up at center, it's taken out by Harris, Harris spinning, dumps it back in across the out of the blue line, Lewis throws it out to center, Park takes it there, that goal by Gillies assisted by Bourne and Marshall at the 16 minute mark, now Reem Heels from the Rangers up to center, elite for Kachuk loses control, Gillies snaps it back out of the zone, Heels takes it center, waits for Sanderson to move onside, throws it ahead for Kachuk, stick handles in, back pass Faber out to the point, Park he shoots it in,

188
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:28,360
it's blocked by the skates of Marshall, taken by Billy Harris of the out of the news and he decides to ice it, fires it all the way down, across the Rangers goal line, the touch made by Ron Harris and we get a whistle for icing, Burt Marshall stopping that shot from Park, and the out of the defenseman has stopped many shots, last night the Rangers had six goals but he only had 13 shots on net, on goal time to Glenn Resch when he was removed, Burt Marshall, played a significant part Wednesday night on Major Pathways, he came up with at least three bites,

189
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:58,360
he's right in front of the goaltender, they're doing it again, Grandpa taking that shot, that was Tuesday night, Grandpa taking that shot and Marshall getting away from the shot from the point, all right Rotel is on with Vickers and Kilbagh, Greshner and Morata back, Westphalen and Rotel on the space off now, right side of Billy Smith and the story of this first period has been the great goaltending of Billy Smith of the New York Islanders, they lead it 1-0 on the face both Westphalen and Rotel jump the gun, and as has happened many times in the past, the great goalie

190
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:28,360
the goal tender makes many good saves for his team, his team comes back and scores the goal and they're up 1-0, again they'll face right side of Smith, both clubs lining up now again the Lionsman Scampanella will drop it he does, Vickers battles with Gruen from the loose Park, Westphal comes over he's crunched by Morata but he's able to clear it all the way down, it carries across the Ranger goal line, Greshner back makes the touch, and once again an icing and fraction against the Outer Thirts, and Morata is going to be a close tight shaking game,

191
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:36,360
that Islanders at their best this season have been in low scoring games when they can keep the opposition go ahead of the opposition and then check all night.

192
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:41,860
They have the players to check that a well disciplined hockey club with icing the last two times in 30 seconds.

193
00:37:41,860 --> 00:37:42,860
They're doing it tonight.

194
00:37:42,860 --> 00:37:48,460
I have the best controls at the third quarter and he shoots it as blocked by a heart.

195
00:37:48,460 --> 00:37:58,460
Take it off by Drew and up to center Westfall right up across the range of line. He slows it up now shoots it in front.

196
00:37:58,460 --> 00:38:03,460
The corner out of Drew and Drew and back out to Pottman. His drive goes wide on the rebound.

197
00:38:03,460 --> 00:38:10,460
Westball keeps it alive, spins to the corner in front to Drew and checked off the play by Greshner and Marat picks up the bouncing puck.

198
00:38:10,460 --> 00:38:19,460
Right wing Joe Bear, leaps with talent center. He's up across the island of the line and the slot he shoots a very rapid as Drew juggles it hard on by Goal Tender Billy Smith.

199
00:38:19,460 --> 00:38:28,460
So the face off coming up now to the right side of Smith. Two minutes twelve seconds remaining in this first period and the Islanders lead it one nothing.

200
00:38:28,460 --> 00:38:34,460
The goal by Gillies an angled drive from the right of Villamur and the beat up between his fans.

201
00:38:34,460 --> 00:38:47,460
They assist at the 16 minute mark again the island of the fans Garrett Jerry Hart making a good play in front of Billy Smith pulling a range of pulling the islanders out of trouble on the face off Marshall rolls it around.

202
00:38:47,460 --> 00:38:57,460
Lewis takes it the near side back pass now for Marshall Marshall spinning in his own and throws it ahead now for ice from his check by Irwin as he sends out of his own.

203
00:38:57,460 --> 00:39:07,460
The point takes Moses to St. Louis and across the range of on a flat ground is why the hard drive with Villamur coming out the front cut down the angle Lewis able to keep up a rebound moves around.

204
00:39:07,460 --> 00:39:10,460
Pack Moses can play a pack of the left post for it.

205
00:39:10,460 --> 00:39:13,460
Now Harris traces down up the near side and throws it ahead.

206
00:39:13,460 --> 00:39:14,460
Stankowski up to center.

207
00:39:14,460 --> 00:39:30,460
Never goes over the slap on his wide right side of Smith. Nice for the after the long with Irwin they come together on the corner Irwin.

208
00:39:30,460 --> 00:39:44,460
For the pros for the right wing nice from ice from the holes up with the power to move on side that shoots out as he's checked by Harris and some back behind that Ranger go back to his head.

209
00:39:44,460 --> 00:40:00,460
He puts it out of his own a chase for the pocket center ice Lewis after the long with Irwin Irwin bats it in across the end of the line back pass Stankowski his shot deflects why the partner at the right part and he did not see it and it slides out of his own.

210
00:40:00,460 --> 00:40:21,460
He's checked checked away by Marshall for the stick of heading east of the range of line left wing feed for Howard his drive ends up reflecting high on the crowd to the left of Villamur and play is called with 49 seconds remaining in this first period and after Billy Smith has come up with some fine say the others are starting to take the blade to the Rangers getting into some good shots.

211
00:40:21,460 --> 00:40:36,460
Well as you mentioned I'm excited for the opposite side with brotherly out he's playing on the left side. He's having some trouble clearing he fell down once on a good play by retail saving him retail back checking well born and could chew on the draw right side of the

212
00:40:36,460 --> 00:40:53,460
line heicia colors locks in I've always like my life is loose and across the nation for him he's back at home but not for him to pick your cups together.

213
00:40:54,720 --> 00:40:56,460
Police are coming up.

214
00:40:56,460 --> 00:41:00,460
They move outside the.

215
00:41:00,460 --> 00:41:02,460
Ranger Blue Line.

216
00:41:03,460 --> 00:41:05,460
Bob born taking the initiative in there.

217
00:41:05,460 --> 00:41:08,060
in the opposite zone, the Pepas after the O'Kill zone.

218
00:41:08,060 --> 00:41:11,180
Oh, and Kachouk on the face now, half-bent of remaining first for him.

219
00:41:11,180 --> 00:41:14,140
And Fowlbank-Resner moves to the left defense to Marotte.

220
00:41:14,140 --> 00:41:16,780
Now Marotte out of the ranger zone, up to center.

221
00:41:16,780 --> 00:41:20,020
He winds and fires, gloves saved to the left, made by Smith.

222
00:41:20,020 --> 00:41:21,940
Leaves it behind the net for Hart.

223
00:41:21,940 --> 00:41:24,740
Hart checked by Kachouk, bangs it off the board,

224
00:41:24,740 --> 00:41:27,220
near giveaway to Faber, and Gilley's able to beat Faber

225
00:41:27,220 --> 00:41:29,140
out of the pocket, shoots it all the way down.

226
00:41:29,140 --> 00:41:31,660
Marotte back forward, 15 seconds left in the play.

227
00:41:31,660 --> 00:41:33,220
Marotte speaks it around the board for the finish

228
00:41:33,220 --> 00:41:35,660
after by Billy Harris, out to the court, Dennis Popman.

229
00:41:35,660 --> 00:41:38,380
Popman cuts left, throws in right side of Villamure.

230
00:41:38,380 --> 00:41:40,700
Harris is back, feeds it to McVinnie,

231
00:41:40,700 --> 00:41:42,820
driven it by Gresher, shoots it out of the zone.

232
00:41:42,820 --> 00:41:44,980
Time running down now in this first period.

233
00:41:44,980 --> 00:41:48,100
Dennis Popman to the right, and that's the end

234
00:41:48,100 --> 00:41:50,580
of this first period of play with the score.

235
00:41:50,580 --> 00:41:54,860
The New York Islanders won, and the New York Rangers nothing.

236
00:41:54,860 --> 00:41:57,740
Alka Seltzer brings you a message from the old one too.

237
00:41:57,740 --> 00:42:03,460
So you're in the carpool, and daredevil cherries at the wheel.

238
00:42:03,460 --> 00:42:07,020
Just close your eyes, try to forget those lumpy pancakes

239
00:42:07,020 --> 00:42:08,020
in your stomach.

240
00:42:08,020 --> 00:42:10,500
We're going to deal with the old one too.

241
00:42:10,500 --> 00:42:16,740
Alka Seltzer, let's get out of here.

242
00:42:16,740 --> 00:42:18,380
For aches and pains with upset stomach,

243
00:42:18,380 --> 00:42:20,540
use Alka Seltzer with specially buffered aspirin

244
00:42:20,540 --> 00:42:21,540
plus hand acid.

245
00:42:21,540 --> 00:42:22,740
Use only the most directed.

246
00:42:22,740 --> 00:42:26,100
It gives the old one too, the old one too.

247
00:42:26,100 --> 00:42:28,820
Now over with Sal Masina from Madison Square Garden

248
00:42:28,820 --> 00:42:30,100
in New York.

249
00:42:30,100 --> 00:42:32,580
And at the end of one, the Islanders lead it,

250
00:42:32,580 --> 00:42:34,980
one nothing on the ground, but Clark Gillies

251
00:42:34,980 --> 00:42:39,060
is second of the series, assisted by Bourne and Marshall.

252
00:42:39,060 --> 00:42:41,300
At the 16 minute mark, just barely

253
00:42:41,300 --> 00:42:43,540
found by Bruce Hiddon, the first pair of two

254
00:42:43,540 --> 00:42:45,820
urban of the Rangers for a roughing.

255
00:42:45,820 --> 00:42:50,020
At 7.46, Clark Gillies of the Islanders for interference

256
00:42:50,020 --> 00:42:51,860
at pair of 17.

257
00:42:51,860 --> 00:42:53,780
And the shots on Jordan, the first,

258
00:42:53,780 --> 00:42:56,460
Rangers 15 Islanders 8.

259
00:42:56,460 --> 00:42:59,900
Tremendous goaltending by Gillies Smith

260
00:42:59,900 --> 00:43:01,540
in that first period.

261
00:43:01,540 --> 00:43:03,460
Kept the Islanders in it after the Rangers

262
00:43:03,460 --> 00:43:05,860
were stopped on some excellent opportunities.

263
00:43:05,860 --> 00:43:08,380
And then Gillies was able to put it past Rillemure,

264
00:43:08,380 --> 00:43:10,620
putting it through his pants with an angle shot

265
00:43:10,620 --> 00:43:13,620
from about 30, 35 feet up from the right side.

266
00:43:13,620 --> 00:43:15,860
So one complete.

267
00:43:15,860 --> 00:43:19,500
And the Islanders lead it by the score of one nothing.

268
00:43:19,500 --> 00:43:21,900
We'll be back after this from Schaeferbier.

269
00:43:21,900 --> 00:43:24,860
["SHAPEHER BIRD"]

270
00:43:24,860 --> 00:43:29,340
Schaefer is the one beer to have.

271
00:43:29,340 --> 00:43:32,260
Now here's a word from the number one beer in New York.

272
00:43:35,060 --> 00:43:40,060
Hey, Schaefer is the one beer to have when you're

273
00:43:40,060 --> 00:43:43,420
having more than one.

274
00:43:43,420 --> 00:43:45,260
New York is full of landmarks.

275
00:43:45,260 --> 00:43:48,380
The Battery, Washington Square, Shea Stadium,

276
00:43:48,380 --> 00:43:49,980
and over on Kent Avenue in Brooklyn,

277
00:43:49,980 --> 00:43:51,300
there's another landmark.

278
00:43:51,300 --> 00:43:52,740
The Schaefer Brewery.

279
00:43:52,740 --> 00:43:56,900
Since 1842, there's always been a Schaefer Brewery in New York.

280
00:43:56,900 --> 00:43:59,460
Because New York has always liked Schaefer's way

281
00:43:59,460 --> 00:44:04,060
of tasting first beer good, beer after beer, year after year.

282
00:44:04,060 --> 00:44:07,100
Schaefer's a beer born and brewed right here in New York.

283
00:44:07,100 --> 00:44:09,860
It's New York's number one beer.

284
00:44:09,860 --> 00:44:11,860
One more time.

285
00:44:11,860 --> 00:44:19,340
Schaefer is the one beer to have when you're having more

286
00:44:19,340 --> 00:44:22,300
than one.

287
00:44:22,300 --> 00:44:26,260
The F&M Schaefer Brewery Company, New York, New York.

288
00:44:26,260 --> 00:44:28,660
On the scoreboard in the third period.

289
00:44:28,660 --> 00:44:31,300
And that surprise up in Boston, the Blackhawks leading

290
00:44:31,300 --> 00:44:33,500
the Brohens 5-3.

291
00:44:33,500 --> 00:44:36,780
Chicago 5, Boston 3, in the third.

292
00:44:36,780 --> 00:44:38,340
Later tonight, the winner, Adderley.

293
00:44:38,340 --> 00:44:39,580
That series kind of won it.

294
00:44:39,580 --> 00:44:43,220
Well, they have exchanged some death over time victories there.

295
00:44:43,220 --> 00:44:45,340
Pittsburgh swept St. Louis two games to nothing.

296
00:44:45,340 --> 00:44:47,300
So they are now in a whole pattern.

297
00:44:47,300 --> 00:44:51,700
NBA playoffs resume tomorrow, the Knicks playing at Houston.

298
00:44:51,700 --> 00:44:53,660
And their third and final game, you'll

299
00:44:53,660 --> 00:44:57,140
hear it on WNEW airtime at 1.20.

300
00:44:57,140 --> 00:44:59,500
And the ABA playoffs, the Nets at St. Louis,

301
00:44:59,500 --> 00:45:01,460
Natsui's tied at 1.1.

302
00:45:01,460 --> 00:45:03,660
Kentucky at Memphis tonight, but the Colts

303
00:45:03,660 --> 00:45:06,380
are looking to make it a four-zip wrap-up.

304
00:45:06,380 --> 00:45:11,620
And Denver at Utah, Denver leading it two games to one.

305
00:45:11,620 --> 00:45:14,460
We're between periods one and two.

306
00:45:14,460 --> 00:45:18,260
And the Anabas leading the Rangers by the score of 1-0

307
00:45:18,260 --> 00:45:21,620
on the first play-off by Clark Gillies.

308
00:45:21,620 --> 00:45:25,220
And after lengthy negotiations, Sal Messina,

309
00:45:25,220 --> 00:45:29,540
after going almost the entire season without having

310
00:45:29,540 --> 00:45:33,340
to talk to Tim Ryan, has finally allowed

311
00:45:33,340 --> 00:45:34,780
Tim to make an appearance here.

312
00:45:34,780 --> 00:45:37,260
And I'm glad Tim's here, because I

313
00:45:37,260 --> 00:45:38,780
don't think Tim will be behind it to, again,

314
00:45:38,780 --> 00:45:43,340
expand the complexities of what might happen on Sunday,

315
00:45:43,340 --> 00:45:45,820
not only for NBC, but for the National Hockey League

316
00:45:45,820 --> 00:45:49,460
in general, with the many possibilities that can occur.

317
00:45:49,460 --> 00:45:50,380
Sal?

318
00:45:50,380 --> 00:45:51,140
Thank you, Ma.

319
00:45:51,140 --> 00:45:53,900
I'm glad you brought that up.

320
00:45:53,900 --> 00:45:55,380
I feel like I'm invaded by NBC.

321
00:45:55,380 --> 00:45:59,580
I have Ma Valdez to my right, Tim Ryan to my left.

322
00:45:59,580 --> 00:46:00,500
Tim?

323
00:46:00,500 --> 00:46:02,580
What's going on Sunday?

324
00:46:02,580 --> 00:46:05,020
I'm almost sure you asked that, but I can tell you this.

325
00:46:05,020 --> 00:46:06,540
We'll be in Buffalo.

326
00:46:06,540 --> 00:46:08,900
The exciting sabers, the French Connection Line,

327
00:46:08,900 --> 00:46:11,540
and all of that stuff, and really not just

328
00:46:11,540 --> 00:46:13,860
to promote our telecast, obviously the sabers

329
00:46:13,860 --> 00:46:15,500
have had a great year.

330
00:46:15,500 --> 00:46:19,220
I think it's a good place to start our Stanley Cup playoff

331
00:46:19,220 --> 00:46:19,740
coverage.

332
00:46:19,740 --> 00:46:22,340
We'll be on every Sunday through the entire Stanley Cup

333
00:46:22,340 --> 00:46:23,420
playoffs.

334
00:46:23,420 --> 00:46:26,820
Buffalo will be playing one of four teams.

335
00:46:26,820 --> 00:46:29,260
And that all depends on what happens tonight, of course.

336
00:46:29,260 --> 00:46:32,700
You've got the Rangers or the Islanders,

337
00:46:32,700 --> 00:46:36,980
and you've got the Chicago Blackhawks in the picture.

338
00:46:36,980 --> 00:46:40,380
It looks like, if you could project anything at the moment

339
00:46:40,380 --> 00:46:41,700
with Pittsburgh's win last night,

340
00:46:41,700 --> 00:46:43,660
that they would play Montreal.

341
00:46:43,660 --> 00:46:47,220
But Toronto and Los Angeles are making it sticky.

342
00:46:47,220 --> 00:46:50,220
So we really can't say who Buffalo

343
00:46:50,220 --> 00:46:51,620
will be playing on Sunday.

344
00:46:51,620 --> 00:46:53,460
But it's one of those four teams.

345
00:46:53,460 --> 00:46:56,340
And I really don't have a preference.

346
00:46:56,340 --> 00:46:58,940
Somebody said earlier today, who would you like it to be?

347
00:46:58,940 --> 00:47:01,420
Well, I really don't think it matters all that much,

348
00:47:01,420 --> 00:47:05,580
because Vancouver, Chicago, the Islanders, and the Rangers,

349
00:47:05,580 --> 00:47:07,700
I think it all would provide an exciting game

350
00:47:07,700 --> 00:47:09,260
against the Buffalo Sabers.

351
00:47:09,260 --> 00:47:13,540
And really, we don't care who wins.

352
00:47:13,540 --> 00:47:15,500
I think we'll have a good hockey game Sunday.

353
00:47:15,500 --> 00:47:16,900
I think if Chicago wins that game,

354
00:47:16,900 --> 00:47:18,540
Chicago ends up playing Montreal,

355
00:47:18,540 --> 00:47:20,460
or Chicago loses that game.

356
00:47:20,460 --> 00:47:23,340
Montreal would play Vancouver.

357
00:47:23,340 --> 00:47:25,380
It isn't out of these Vancouver winning divisions

358
00:47:25,380 --> 00:47:28,020
would be number eight in the pool,

359
00:47:28,020 --> 00:47:30,220
should Chicago lose, then Toronto lose.

360
00:47:30,220 --> 00:47:32,700
Sal, it's just too complicated to go

361
00:47:32,700 --> 00:47:34,100
into all of those possibilities.

362
00:47:34,100 --> 00:47:35,500
And I'm sure the fans are giving up.

363
00:47:35,500 --> 00:47:37,380
They're all happy to wait until tomorrow

364
00:47:37,380 --> 00:47:39,380
to find out who plays who next.

365
00:47:39,380 --> 00:47:40,340
Now, before we get into it, I want

366
00:47:40,340 --> 00:47:41,380
to talk about this game.

367
00:47:41,380 --> 00:47:43,380
Well, before we go into how much of the Buffalo Sabers

368
00:47:43,380 --> 00:47:45,220
and that French Connection line, I

369
00:47:45,220 --> 00:47:47,900
think you have to give that hockey club, Punch-Em,

370
00:47:47,900 --> 00:47:49,620
like a tremendous amount of credit

371
00:47:49,620 --> 00:47:52,740
for getting other players aside from the French Connection

372
00:47:52,740 --> 00:47:54,940
line that really made that team a hockey club, with Don

373
00:47:54,940 --> 00:47:58,900
Luce, Craig Ramsey, the guys who do the work defensively

374
00:47:58,900 --> 00:48:00,220
night in and night out.

375
00:48:00,220 --> 00:48:01,060
No doubt about that.

376
00:48:01,060 --> 00:48:03,540
I have great respect for Punch-Em Lack.

377
00:48:03,540 --> 00:48:06,780
It goes back many years in his days with the Toronto Maple

378
00:48:06,780 --> 00:48:07,280
Leafs.

379
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:08,820
And I always have believed him to be

380
00:48:08,820 --> 00:48:11,340
one of the brilliant hockey people in the game.

381
00:48:11,340 --> 00:48:13,420
And he said when he went to Buffalo

382
00:48:13,420 --> 00:48:16,300
that he'd be the first expansion team to win the Stanley Cup.

383
00:48:16,300 --> 00:48:18,380
And he included all of the teams that were already in.

384
00:48:18,380 --> 00:48:20,700
Well, he didn't quite make good on that promise.

385
00:48:20,700 --> 00:48:21,580
Philly beat him to it.

386
00:48:21,580 --> 00:48:23,460
But of course, the Sabers are younger.

387
00:48:23,460 --> 00:48:25,660
And they've got as good a shot at it.

388
00:48:25,660 --> 00:48:28,100
And they're going to get them in the NHL as this year.

389
00:48:28,100 --> 00:48:31,300
And it is because he has found those kinds of players

390
00:48:31,300 --> 00:48:32,740
you just described.

391
00:48:32,740 --> 00:48:35,340
They've got a rookie of the year candidate, Danny Gere.

392
00:48:35,340 --> 00:48:38,500
But it's the other guys you mentioned, like Ramsey and Luce.

393
00:48:38,500 --> 00:48:41,500
And look at that young defense that he's put together.

394
00:48:41,500 --> 00:48:43,980
People were concerned about the goal-tenning of Buffalo,

395
00:48:43,980 --> 00:48:45,300
including Punch-Em Lack.

396
00:48:45,300 --> 00:48:46,780
And yet he got through the season

397
00:48:46,780 --> 00:48:48,580
with a couple of goalies who were better than anybody

398
00:48:48,580 --> 00:48:49,300
expected.

399
00:48:49,300 --> 00:48:51,620
But they got great defensive help in those forwards

400
00:48:51,620 --> 00:48:53,300
come back and play both ends of the ice.

401
00:48:53,300 --> 00:48:55,820
And that's why they finished where they did.

402
00:48:55,820 --> 00:48:57,860
And you've got guys like Perot, Martin, and Robert

403
00:48:57,860 --> 00:49:00,460
who could give you that lead and then have these guys check

404
00:49:00,460 --> 00:49:02,460
for the rest of the hockey game when they were out

405
00:49:02,460 --> 00:49:04,260
or check the best line of the other team.

406
00:49:04,260 --> 00:49:06,700
So it's a great balance team, in my opinion.

407
00:49:06,700 --> 00:49:08,140
It's a great balance team.

408
00:49:08,140 --> 00:49:12,540
I do think that a series that certainly is possible

409
00:49:12,540 --> 00:49:15,220
is Buffalo against Montreal somewhere along the line,

410
00:49:15,220 --> 00:49:16,740
semifinals probably.

411
00:49:16,740 --> 00:49:18,820
And I would think that that has got

412
00:49:18,820 --> 00:49:21,180
to be one of the most exciting matchups that you could

413
00:49:21,180 --> 00:49:23,060
possibly put together in Stanley Cup play.

414
00:49:23,060 --> 00:49:24,180
I'm looking forward to it.

415
00:49:24,180 --> 00:49:24,900
It may not happen.

416
00:49:24,900 --> 00:49:25,740
Anything can happen.

417
00:49:25,740 --> 00:49:28,620
But I think that that would be an exciting series.

418
00:49:28,620 --> 00:49:30,300
You know, and oddity about that, Buffalo

419
00:49:30,300 --> 00:49:32,820
has taken nine of 10 points from Montreal this year

420
00:49:32,820 --> 00:49:33,900
in this season's series.

421
00:49:33,900 --> 00:49:36,500
So everybody was thinking the Canadians had their worst

422
00:49:36,500 --> 00:49:37,980
problems with New York teams.

423
00:49:37,980 --> 00:49:40,100
Actually, the Islanders, not counting the Rangers.

424
00:49:40,100 --> 00:49:42,420
I don't think the Rangers beat Montreal this year.

425
00:49:42,420 --> 00:49:45,260
But with the Islanders and Buffalo,

426
00:49:45,260 --> 00:49:46,980
and both of them play opposite to Buffalo.

427
00:49:46,980 --> 00:49:48,340
Where's the wide open team?

428
00:49:48,340 --> 00:49:49,900
I'd show them against the Rangers.

429
00:49:49,900 --> 00:49:52,140
The football scores or industrial league

430
00:49:52,140 --> 00:49:53,420
scores against the Rangers.

431
00:49:53,420 --> 00:49:54,460
Well, that's right.

432
00:49:54,460 --> 00:49:56,420
You know, unfortunately, it's cliche,

433
00:49:56,420 --> 00:49:58,620
but it is true because you look back at the records

434
00:49:58,620 --> 00:49:59,900
and you find it's true.

435
00:49:59,900 --> 00:50:01,940
Let the playoffs begin at the whole new season.

436
00:50:01,940 --> 00:50:04,700
And so I don't think that record the Sabres have against Montreal

437
00:50:04,700 --> 00:50:06,260
really matter very much.

438
00:50:06,260 --> 00:50:08,420
It could indicate only one thing, that they

439
00:50:08,420 --> 00:50:09,980
would build up a confidence that they

440
00:50:09,980 --> 00:50:12,940
could take into the playoffs to play their own game.

441
00:50:12,940 --> 00:50:14,780
In other words, without going in and trying

442
00:50:14,780 --> 00:50:16,780
to be cautious if they had split the series

443
00:50:16,780 --> 00:50:18,700
and gone over the bottom side of the series,

444
00:50:18,700 --> 00:50:21,420
they might go in and play a more cautious style

445
00:50:21,420 --> 00:50:22,740
than they normally play.

446
00:50:22,740 --> 00:50:25,460
I think the fact that they had that record against Montreal

447
00:50:25,460 --> 00:50:27,500
would send them in there with a feeling

448
00:50:27,500 --> 00:50:29,820
that let's just go with the same kind of thing

449
00:50:29,820 --> 00:50:31,020
that we did during the season.

450
00:50:31,020 --> 00:50:32,940
I don't want to tout that matchup,

451
00:50:32,940 --> 00:50:34,420
but it just strikes me as one that's

452
00:50:34,420 --> 00:50:37,460
possible in this very interesting Stanley Cup series

453
00:50:37,460 --> 00:50:40,780
and one that if it happens, I think it'll be very exciting.

454
00:50:40,780 --> 00:50:43,240
Going on tonight's game, there was a lot of speculation

455
00:50:43,240 --> 00:50:45,780
as to who the goaltender would be for the Islanders.

456
00:50:45,780 --> 00:50:48,500
I spoke with Don Wilson, a goaltender prior to the game,

457
00:50:48,500 --> 00:50:51,580
and he said he didn't think it was the goaltending that

458
00:50:51,580 --> 00:50:53,220
lost the game for the Islanders last run.

459
00:50:53,220 --> 00:50:54,220
I have to agree with him.

460
00:50:54,220 --> 00:50:58,700
I think it was the combination of the Rangers successfully

461
00:50:58,700 --> 00:51:00,780
scoring on their power plays and then playing so well

462
00:51:00,780 --> 00:51:02,300
defensively and checking the Islanders.

463
00:51:02,300 --> 00:51:05,260
But we were quite surprised.

464
00:51:05,260 --> 00:51:06,540
I don't know how else.

465
00:51:06,540 --> 00:51:09,500
I'm really surprised that Billy Smith started tonight.

466
00:51:09,500 --> 00:51:10,860
How about yourself, Tim?

467
00:51:10,860 --> 00:51:12,620
Well, I was surprised.

468
00:51:12,620 --> 00:51:15,300
I asked Al Abba right after the game in a press conference

469
00:51:15,300 --> 00:51:19,500
situation, which is not the best place to ask a coach,

470
00:51:19,500 --> 00:51:21,460
a losing coach, those kinds of questions.

471
00:51:21,460 --> 00:51:23,540
He was very emotionally overwrought about the way

472
00:51:23,540 --> 00:51:24,620
the game went last night.

473
00:51:24,620 --> 00:51:27,260
And he said, well, I won't decide until tomorrow morning.

474
00:51:27,260 --> 00:51:28,660
In other words, he played it safe.

475
00:51:28,660 --> 00:51:29,820
He may have already made up his mind.

476
00:51:29,820 --> 00:51:30,340
He may not.

477
00:51:30,340 --> 00:51:31,740
We'll never know.

478
00:51:31,740 --> 00:51:34,460
But I would have guessed that he would have settled on Resch

479
00:51:34,460 --> 00:51:38,100
again because Resch played so well here Tuesday night.

480
00:51:38,100 --> 00:51:41,340
And last night, I thought Resch played badly last night

481
00:51:41,340 --> 00:51:43,420
despite all of the other elements in the game.

482
00:51:43,420 --> 00:51:46,180
I thought he did not play well.

483
00:51:46,180 --> 00:51:48,700
But he is a very cool kind of personality.

484
00:51:48,700 --> 00:51:49,700
I saw him after the game.

485
00:51:49,700 --> 00:51:51,420
He kind of shrugged it off.

486
00:51:51,420 --> 00:51:53,700
And I would think it'd be funny to play tonight

487
00:51:53,700 --> 00:51:56,180
with Phil Smith as a much more emotionally involved kind

488
00:51:56,180 --> 00:51:59,500
of personality who took the defeat very hard.

489
00:51:59,500 --> 00:52:01,380
And while he wasn't responsible for it,

490
00:52:01,380 --> 00:52:02,780
the game was already lost.

491
00:52:02,780 --> 00:52:06,660
It was as though he somehow had been the reason they lost.

492
00:52:06,660 --> 00:52:08,700
And so I thought that Al would probably

493
00:52:08,700 --> 00:52:11,580
go with the more cool hand who had shown what he could do.

494
00:52:11,580 --> 00:52:13,220
So yes, I was surprised.

495
00:52:13,220 --> 00:52:14,740
But I'm not the coach.

496
00:52:14,740 --> 00:52:17,500
Al Arbor is a candidate for Coach of the Year honors.

497
00:52:17,500 --> 00:52:20,420
He's already won the Hockey News award for that category.

498
00:52:20,420 --> 00:52:22,140
And I guess that's why he's a coach.

499
00:52:22,140 --> 00:52:24,220
He made the right decision, at least from what we've seen

500
00:52:24,220 --> 00:52:26,700
so far, because Smith was the buddy in the first period.

501
00:52:26,700 --> 00:52:28,380
I think without Billy Smith, if Smith

502
00:52:28,380 --> 00:52:30,060
were having one of his games or if he

503
00:52:30,060 --> 00:52:33,140
was lacking the confidence, he made those two key saves early

504
00:52:33,140 --> 00:52:34,340
in a hockey game.

505
00:52:34,340 --> 00:52:35,220
Yes, he did.

506
00:52:35,220 --> 00:52:36,820
I think the best thing that can happen

507
00:52:36,820 --> 00:52:39,380
to a player like Billy Smith, and I think

508
00:52:39,380 --> 00:52:40,820
it's true of Eddie Jockman as well,

509
00:52:40,820 --> 00:52:42,980
is that they get a lot of pressure early.

510
00:52:42,980 --> 00:52:45,180
That they have tough chances, not just shots,

511
00:52:45,180 --> 00:52:47,300
but tough chances that challenge them

512
00:52:47,300 --> 00:52:48,900
in the first few minutes of the game.

513
00:52:48,900 --> 00:52:52,020
And if they make the save, they seem to rise,

514
00:52:52,020 --> 00:52:54,460
and they respond to it, and they play very sharply

515
00:52:54,460 --> 00:52:56,020
the rest of the game.

516
00:52:56,020 --> 00:52:58,060
Jim, have you seen this series so far?

517
00:52:58,060 --> 00:52:59,980
I know you've been out of all the poke games

518
00:52:59,980 --> 00:53:01,180
prior to tonight's game.

519
00:53:01,180 --> 00:53:02,580
What are your opinions on it?

520
00:53:02,580 --> 00:53:04,580
Well, I thought after the Islanders beat the Rangers

521
00:53:04,580 --> 00:53:05,940
in here on Tuesday that they would

522
00:53:05,940 --> 00:53:07,660
win the series last night.

523
00:53:07,660 --> 00:53:09,020
Not because they're a better team.

524
00:53:09,020 --> 00:53:10,780
I think the Rangers are a better team.

525
00:53:10,780 --> 00:53:12,980
But the fact that they got the win in here

526
00:53:12,980 --> 00:53:16,180
and were going home and had the confidence build up,

527
00:53:16,180 --> 00:53:18,460
the youngsters on that team knowing that they are now

528
00:53:18,460 --> 00:53:20,740
beating the Rangers twice in the garden, which I think

529
00:53:20,740 --> 00:53:23,380
they had had stage fright in here prior to those two wins.

530
00:53:23,380 --> 00:53:25,980
They came in here and just really kind of fell apart

531
00:53:25,980 --> 00:53:27,580
when they got on the ice.

532
00:53:27,580 --> 00:53:29,500
Those two wins would boost their confidence

533
00:53:29,500 --> 00:53:31,780
and playing at home where they had been tough all year

534
00:53:31,780 --> 00:53:34,060
against everybody, that they would win.

535
00:53:34,060 --> 00:53:36,700
After their loss last night, I had the feeling,

536
00:53:36,700 --> 00:53:39,540
and I still do, that the Rangers would win here tonight.

537
00:53:39,540 --> 00:53:42,340
I just thought that the more experienced team playing

538
00:53:42,340 --> 00:53:47,060
at home should win the third game in a best of three series.

539
00:53:47,060 --> 00:53:48,620
It's one-nothing for the Islanders,

540
00:53:48,620 --> 00:53:51,340
who played extremely well in the first period, I thought.

541
00:53:51,340 --> 00:53:53,180
But I thought both teams played well.

542
00:53:53,180 --> 00:53:56,100
And if I were to make a prediction right now,

543
00:53:56,100 --> 00:53:57,980
I still think the Rangers will win.

544
00:53:57,980 --> 00:53:59,940
But I think the Islanders' chances are better

545
00:53:59,940 --> 00:54:01,940
than I expected when the game started.

546
00:54:01,940 --> 00:54:04,060
That they are, and of course, Billy Smith

547
00:54:04,060 --> 00:54:05,660
rang with the confidence.

548
00:54:05,660 --> 00:54:07,180
But he made some good saves.

549
00:54:07,180 --> 00:54:09,260
The one save on the return on the breakaway

550
00:54:09,260 --> 00:54:12,420
was a super one, though, it was right there.

551
00:54:12,420 --> 00:54:17,140
Last night, a game that was filled with a lot of fighting.

552
00:54:17,140 --> 00:54:19,340
Reminded me of a Philadelphia Flyer game, especially

553
00:54:19,340 --> 00:54:21,540
a Philadelphia Flyer-New York Ranger game.

554
00:54:21,540 --> 00:54:23,740
But because we see the Philadelphia Flyer-New York

555
00:54:23,740 --> 00:54:26,900
Ranger games more often than others, tonight,

556
00:54:26,900 --> 00:54:28,380
nobody's actually thrown a punch.

557
00:54:28,380 --> 00:54:30,300
Teddy Irvin picked up a roughing penalty

558
00:54:30,300 --> 00:54:31,740
for just swinging his arm.

559
00:54:31,740 --> 00:54:34,060
Well, I think there are two reasons for that.

560
00:54:34,060 --> 00:54:36,740
One is that usually after a game which

561
00:54:36,740 --> 00:54:39,620
is ball-filled between two teams, which are not basically

562
00:54:39,620 --> 00:54:41,740
fighting teams, and both of these teams

563
00:54:41,740 --> 00:54:45,020
qualify as non-fighting teams overall,

564
00:54:45,020 --> 00:54:47,100
usually you get that out of the way,

565
00:54:47,100 --> 00:54:48,980
and you play hockey the next game.

566
00:54:48,980 --> 00:54:52,460
Even if it's not a series deciding game, which this is,

567
00:54:52,460 --> 00:54:54,180
that just adds another element to it.

568
00:54:54,180 --> 00:54:57,260
Secondly, I think that the refereeing tonight

569
00:54:57,260 --> 00:54:59,180
is better than it was last night.

570
00:54:59,180 --> 00:55:02,700
And Ron Wicks has refereed a lot of good games,

571
00:55:02,700 --> 00:55:04,220
and I don't want to single them out.

572
00:55:04,220 --> 00:55:06,380
There have been other referees who've had bad nights.

573
00:55:06,380 --> 00:55:08,580
They average about like the players and the teams do.

574
00:55:08,580 --> 00:55:11,100
But I thought that, unfortunately, he

575
00:55:11,100 --> 00:55:14,620
took command early last night in a way that was not

576
00:55:14,620 --> 00:55:17,820
conducive to a good playoff game between two teams like these.

577
00:55:17,820 --> 00:55:19,860
Tonight, Bruce Hood, I think, has handled it well.

578
00:55:19,860 --> 00:55:21,940
There were a couple of calls that he might have made,

579
00:55:21,940 --> 00:55:24,700
but he chose to let them go in the interest of the game,

580
00:55:24,700 --> 00:55:26,260
and they were not flagrant penalties.

581
00:55:26,260 --> 00:55:28,580
And I think he exercised good judgment.

582
00:55:28,580 --> 00:55:31,300
Consequently, both teams responded to the tone

583
00:55:31,300 --> 00:55:33,900
that he set, and we saw good, hard skating,

584
00:55:33,900 --> 00:55:36,740
hard checking hockey, and an exciting period of play.

585
00:55:36,740 --> 00:55:39,220
Tim Ryan, NBC Sportscaster, thanks very much

586
00:55:39,220 --> 00:55:40,220
for coming on, Tim.

587
00:55:40,220 --> 00:55:41,780
Sal, pleasure to be here.

588
00:55:41,780 --> 00:55:42,620
Wallace?

589
00:55:42,620 --> 00:55:43,140
OK.

590
00:55:43,140 --> 00:55:44,220
How does that feel?

591
00:55:44,220 --> 00:55:46,060
Hey, he sounds like he knows what he's doing.

592
00:55:46,060 --> 00:55:49,660
He should be doing hockey, so.

593
00:55:49,660 --> 00:55:53,380
For Tim, we have a Sony AM FM Digimatic Clock radio.

594
00:55:53,380 --> 00:55:55,860
You know, Frank Field, incidentally, is here.

595
00:55:55,860 --> 00:55:57,100
No kidding.

596
00:55:57,100 --> 00:55:58,900
Sir, have you got to take care of this?

597
00:55:58,900 --> 00:55:59,460
He's not with us.

598
00:55:59,460 --> 00:56:02,580
He actually purchased seats.

599
00:56:02,580 --> 00:56:03,500
It was given seats.

600
00:56:03,500 --> 00:56:04,140
Impossible.

601
00:56:04,140 --> 00:56:04,660
Was he?

602
00:56:04,660 --> 00:56:05,980
He must have been given seats.

603
00:56:05,980 --> 00:56:08,620
But they are in the mezzanine section.

604
00:56:08,620 --> 00:56:11,620
He didn't realize that the color of the seats

605
00:56:11,620 --> 00:56:12,860
determines where you sit.

606
00:56:12,860 --> 00:56:16,420
They are not one of the better garden locations.

607
00:56:16,420 --> 00:56:17,180
He likes blue.

608
00:56:17,180 --> 00:56:19,020
And he wants to be in the clouds, Marv.

609
00:56:19,020 --> 00:56:20,060
He's checking the weather.

610
00:56:20,060 --> 00:56:21,300
Good to him.

611
00:56:21,300 --> 00:56:23,580
And he asked me if they're good seats.

612
00:56:23,580 --> 00:56:25,820
And I said, sir.

613
00:56:25,820 --> 00:56:27,260
And I said, yes, sir.

614
00:56:27,260 --> 00:56:28,180
They're great seats.

615
00:56:28,180 --> 00:56:29,580
He doesn't realize it.

616
00:56:29,580 --> 00:56:31,340
I said, yeah, we have to have a bench.

617
00:56:31,340 --> 00:56:32,980
But he is upstairs somewhere.

618
00:56:32,980 --> 00:56:34,420
He does not realize that.

619
00:56:34,420 --> 00:56:37,220
At any rate, great, Marv.

620
00:56:37,220 --> 00:56:40,460
For Tim, we have a Sony AM FM Digimatic Clock radio

621
00:56:40,460 --> 00:56:42,700
with touch-back controls, automatic sleep time.

622
00:56:42,700 --> 00:56:45,900
And the Sony also has illuminated easy-to-read clock

623
00:56:45,900 --> 00:56:48,580
numerals and a big three-inch speaker.

624
00:56:48,580 --> 00:56:50,420
It's not just a radio.

625
00:56:50,420 --> 00:56:51,220
It's a Sony.

626
00:56:51,220 --> 00:56:53,980
We'll be back with period number two.

627
00:56:53,980 --> 00:56:56,500
After this, we'll manufacture a sound over truss.

628
00:56:56,500 --> 00:56:59,500
One of life's embarrassing events can happen anywhere,

629
00:56:59,500 --> 00:57:01,060
even at the corner of Butcher Street.

630
00:57:01,060 --> 00:57:02,340
All right, who's next?

631
00:57:02,340 --> 00:57:04,020
That last steak.

632
00:57:04,020 --> 00:57:05,100
Go ahead, Harriet.

633
00:57:05,100 --> 00:57:06,220
Yes, Mrs. Lane.

634
00:57:06,220 --> 00:57:08,620
That last steak, Henry, was a little rubbery.

635
00:57:08,620 --> 00:57:10,820
Yeah, well, so was your check.

636
00:57:10,820 --> 00:57:11,860
It bounced.

637
00:57:11,860 --> 00:57:14,220
Oh, I must have figured wrong in my checkbook.

638
00:57:14,220 --> 00:57:15,260
What's wrong, Harriet?

639
00:57:15,260 --> 00:57:16,860
Is Brett out of work or something?

640
00:57:16,860 --> 00:57:18,380
Marty and I have always learned here.

641
00:57:18,380 --> 00:57:19,380
This is terrible.

642
00:57:19,380 --> 00:57:20,380
Beth, we have a kid.

643
00:57:20,380 --> 00:57:23,260
Manufacturers' handover can take one of life's embarrassing

644
00:57:23,260 --> 00:57:27,620
moments out of your life with worry-free overgraph checking.

645
00:57:27,620 --> 00:57:28,700
You've probably done it.

646
00:57:28,700 --> 00:57:29,780
We all have.

647
00:57:29,780 --> 00:57:31,620
You make a small error in your checkbook,

648
00:57:31,620 --> 00:57:35,220
and the next thing you know, your paper check is to me a rubber.

649
00:57:35,220 --> 00:57:37,180
But with this system, you can write checks bigger

650
00:57:37,180 --> 00:57:39,620
than your balance, and they won't bounce.

651
00:57:39,620 --> 00:57:41,500
You can make your checking account worry-free

652
00:57:41,500 --> 00:57:43,540
by applying for command credit.

653
00:57:43,540 --> 00:57:46,780
You can get something else, too, an easy checking guide.

654
00:57:46,780 --> 00:57:49,220
It lets you cash your manufacturer's handover personal

655
00:57:49,220 --> 00:57:51,820
check at over 170 branches.

656
00:57:51,820 --> 00:57:53,420
Manufacturers' handover.

657
00:57:53,420 --> 00:57:55,780
It's banking the way you want it to be.

658
00:57:55,780 --> 00:57:58,700
Remember FDIC.

659
00:57:58,700 --> 00:58:01,300
We're set for the face-off.

660
00:58:01,300 --> 00:58:03,460
To get things going here in the second period,

661
00:58:03,460 --> 00:58:04,420
it is Joe Villamire.

662
00:58:04,420 --> 00:58:06,580
QR right, Billy Smith QR left.

663
00:58:06,580 --> 00:58:07,940
Rangers cramming the anode.

664
00:58:07,940 --> 00:58:09,740
There's one nothing on the face.

665
00:58:09,740 --> 00:58:10,860
Rangers control.

666
00:58:10,860 --> 00:58:15,580
Ron Harris checked by Drew Curran, and Curran takes it away.

667
00:58:15,580 --> 00:58:17,860
A hit for West Ball, he's to the range of line.

668
00:58:17,860 --> 00:58:19,060
Cross-ice Parisi.

669
00:58:19,060 --> 00:58:20,580
Back pass now for Lewis.

670
00:58:20,580 --> 00:58:22,020
A shot served, made.

671
00:58:22,020 --> 00:58:22,660
It was loose.

672
00:58:22,660 --> 00:58:25,460
Backhand about Parisi is blocked.

673
00:58:25,460 --> 00:58:29,940
Buck ends up at the near corner in his pin with Hood.

674
00:58:29,940 --> 00:58:34,260
And Harris coming to here, and Lewis sent down the floor.

675
00:58:34,260 --> 00:58:35,780
What a weird play that was, too.

676
00:58:35,780 --> 00:58:37,460
The puck was loose.

677
00:58:37,460 --> 00:58:40,260
JP Parisi had a backhand shot and had the entire net hit.

678
00:58:40,260 --> 00:58:44,580
Villamire in the arm, and Ron Harris is skating by the net.

679
00:58:44,580 --> 00:58:46,540
Checked Bruce Hood into the boards.

680
00:58:46,540 --> 00:58:48,060
Mountain amended up in the corner,

681
00:58:48,060 --> 00:58:50,820
and the puck just wound around underneath the two of them.

682
00:58:50,820 --> 00:58:52,380
Bruce Hood had him blow the whistle.

683
00:58:52,380 --> 00:58:55,820
He's sitting there with his back up against the boards.

684
00:58:55,820 --> 00:59:01,060
And the left-behind Villamire was also knocked off its hinges.

685
00:59:01,060 --> 00:59:03,580
Wild sequence, and it results in a face-off

686
00:59:03,580 --> 00:59:06,340
to the right of the ranger net controlled by the Rangers.

687
00:59:06,340 --> 00:59:08,700
Joe Vast starts up, has Vickers left,

688
00:59:08,700 --> 00:59:11,300
Rattelle right, a leap for Rattelle across the out of the line.

689
00:59:11,300 --> 00:59:13,100
Takes a stiff check from Lewis.

690
00:59:13,100 --> 00:59:14,740
Lewis comes up with a loose puck,

691
00:59:14,740 --> 00:59:17,940
bothered from behind by Joe Vast, loses to Joe Vast.

692
00:59:17,940 --> 00:59:20,420
He banks at the board.

693
00:59:20,420 --> 00:59:23,300
Puck is knocked around by Drew and a clear down of his arm.

694
00:59:23,300 --> 00:59:26,220
Taken by Parisi at center and across the ranger line.

695
00:59:26,220 --> 00:59:29,220
Back pass now for Drew, and Drew in circles to the corner.

696
00:59:29,220 --> 00:59:31,980
Goes in with an angle shot that is blocked by Vickers.

697
00:59:31,980 --> 00:59:34,460
Vickers up to center with Joe Vast at ground.

698
00:59:34,460 --> 00:59:35,820
Stick handles to the out of the line,

699
00:59:35,820 --> 00:59:38,460
but Joe Vast ahead of the plate.

700
00:59:38,460 --> 00:59:39,980
And offside will bring it back.

701
00:59:39,980 --> 00:59:41,820
Face-off coming up back.

702
00:59:41,820 --> 00:59:43,740
That's the Islander through-ramp.

703
00:59:43,740 --> 00:59:46,060
Perfect minimum play, second period,

704
00:59:46,060 --> 00:59:49,740
and the Islanders lead one more thing on the goal by Gillies

705
00:59:49,740 --> 00:59:53,060
from Bourne and Marshall at the 16-minute mark.

706
00:59:53,060 --> 00:59:54,500
And Robert, the score, 1-0.

707
00:59:54,500 --> 00:59:56,540
The next goal, you always say the next goal,

708
00:59:56,540 --> 00:59:58,340
the Islanders let down 2-0.

709
00:59:58,340 --> 01:00:00,900
The next goal in that game on Tuesday night was important.

710
01:00:00,900 --> 01:00:02,860
The Islanders got it, and they won the hockey game.

711
01:00:02,860 --> 01:00:04,420
Could be the same tonight.

712
01:00:04,420 --> 01:00:06,820
Off the face-off, Islanders control.

713
01:00:06,820 --> 01:00:10,100
Bourne back pass for Dennis Poppins, shoots it ahead.

714
01:00:10,100 --> 01:00:12,940
A battle at the near side, Sanderson works it free.

715
01:00:12,940 --> 01:00:16,260
Muscles is gray across the end of the line, but loses control.

716
01:00:16,260 --> 01:00:17,380
Billy Harris takes it back.

717
01:00:17,380 --> 01:00:19,100
Check for the hop on the ramp, but he's emmettably Bourne

718
01:00:19,100 --> 01:00:20,180
in across the range of line.

719
01:00:20,180 --> 01:00:22,100
Cross-ice now back out of that Gillies.

720
01:00:22,100 --> 01:00:22,860
Booze, bad.

721
01:00:22,860 --> 01:00:23,780
Center back, born.

722
01:00:23,780 --> 01:00:25,140
His shot was off the mark.

723
01:00:25,140 --> 01:00:26,740
Couture takes the rebound.

724
01:00:26,740 --> 01:00:28,380
Can't clear, Harris keeps up.

725
01:00:28,380 --> 01:00:30,300
Booze it off the Bulls at the near side.

726
01:00:30,300 --> 01:00:32,620
Dennis Poppins loses a stick as Sanderson

727
01:00:32,620 --> 01:00:33,940
shuts it out of the zone.

728
01:00:33,940 --> 01:00:36,340
Picked up that center though by Billy Harris.

729
01:00:36,340 --> 01:00:38,340
Breaks around the ramp at the range of line.

730
01:00:38,340 --> 01:00:40,340
Comes it in, left side of Villamur.

731
01:00:40,340 --> 01:00:42,020
Harris hit from behind by Couture.

732
01:00:42,020 --> 01:00:43,140
They come together.

733
01:00:43,140 --> 01:00:45,260
The puck is loose at the ranger goal line.

734
01:00:45,260 --> 01:00:47,900
Backboard, Cresner loses on a stick shot.

735
01:00:47,900 --> 01:00:49,900
Harris takes, he loses control.

736
01:00:49,900 --> 01:00:51,700
Then regains, doing a run-of-digging.

737
01:00:51,700 --> 01:00:53,820
He's knocked down the play by Cresner.

738
01:00:53,820 --> 01:00:55,860
Islanders looking for a penalty, nothing called.

739
01:00:55,860 --> 01:00:58,100
Puck still loose behind that ranger goal line,

740
01:00:58,100 --> 01:01:00,260
and it's finally picked up by Couture.

741
01:01:00,260 --> 01:01:01,780
Couture got on the ranger's end.

742
01:01:01,780 --> 01:01:02,620
It's the center.

743
01:01:02,620 --> 01:01:04,380
Puts on the breaks, throws it off the boards,

744
01:01:04,380 --> 01:01:07,420
but it's behind Sanderson, and Dennis Poppins retrieves.

745
01:01:07,420 --> 01:01:09,660
A link for Saint-Laurent across the ranger line.

746
01:01:09,660 --> 01:01:10,980
Breaks for the corner of the line.

747
01:01:10,980 --> 01:01:12,580
They're rosing off the side of the net.

748
01:01:12,580 --> 01:01:14,980
Chased down behind that ground back Cresner.

749
01:01:14,980 --> 01:01:16,100
Whips it around the board.

750
01:01:16,100 --> 01:01:17,740
Tenet to Febber, knocked away by Hart.

751
01:01:17,740 --> 01:01:19,860
Slaps it right back behind the ranger goal line.

752
01:01:19,860 --> 01:01:21,740
Cresner winds it around again.

753
01:01:21,740 --> 01:01:24,260
It is picked up now by Couture at center.

754
01:01:24,260 --> 01:01:25,860
Couture across the red line.

755
01:01:25,860 --> 01:01:27,020
He loots Nicebrook.

756
01:01:27,020 --> 01:01:29,020
He's up across the end of the blue line.

757
01:01:29,020 --> 01:01:30,300
Back past Sanderson.

758
01:01:30,300 --> 01:01:31,300
Roles it in front of the net.

759
01:01:31,300 --> 01:01:34,460
Scooped up by the goaltender, Smith, and he holds on.

760
01:01:34,460 --> 01:01:37,900
Let's pause right here for a station identification.

761
01:01:37,900 --> 01:01:39,580
This is WNEW, New York.

762
01:01:39,580 --> 01:01:41,700
My name is Ted Brown, a ranger fan,

763
01:01:41,700 --> 01:01:44,060
and I'm on every afternoon at 4 p.m.

764
01:01:44,060 --> 01:01:44,900
Join me.

765
01:01:44,900 --> 01:01:47,220
We'll crease your blue line good.

766
01:01:47,220 --> 01:01:48,740
Two and a half minutes gone by.

767
01:01:48,740 --> 01:01:50,020
Second period.

768
01:01:50,020 --> 01:01:52,980
Third and finale of this best two out of three

769
01:01:52,980 --> 01:01:54,220
with the Rangers and the Anadilists

770
01:01:54,220 --> 01:01:55,540
nodded at one and one.

771
01:01:55,540 --> 01:01:58,260
Anadilists coming here Tuesday night, three-two.

772
01:01:58,260 --> 01:02:02,100
Now the Rangers, winning last night at the Coliseum,

773
01:02:02,100 --> 01:02:03,620
eight to three.

774
01:02:03,620 --> 01:02:05,100
Surrey's even at one and one.

775
01:02:05,100 --> 01:02:07,620
A Stankowski goes against St. Laurent.

776
01:02:07,620 --> 01:02:09,900
Faisal, left side, and Billy Smith.

777
01:02:11,140 --> 01:02:13,620
And Armstrong drops it and sent back to the point.

778
01:02:13,620 --> 01:02:15,820
Butler shoots ahead, deflects wide.

779
01:02:15,820 --> 01:02:18,500
On the rebound, chase by on behalf of Edmai Lewis,

780
01:02:18,500 --> 01:02:19,620
winds it around the board.

781
01:02:19,620 --> 01:02:22,580
Nicebrook and Park come together and divide to freeze.

782
01:02:22,580 --> 01:02:24,820
Safreya's fault, and again a face-off.

783
01:02:24,820 --> 01:02:26,340
Deep in islander S.

784
01:02:26,340 --> 01:02:29,380
Brad Parr coming in to keep the puck in the zone.

785
01:02:29,380 --> 01:02:32,340
Jerry Hart doing the same thing in the Ranger end.

786
01:02:32,340 --> 01:02:34,060
And when your wingers are coming back,

787
01:02:34,060 --> 01:02:35,740
what's Stankowski and Butler backing up

788
01:02:35,740 --> 01:02:36,740
on the other side of the ice?

789
01:02:36,740 --> 01:02:38,380
The defenseman is able to do that.

790
01:02:38,380 --> 01:02:41,140
On the face, controlled by Burt Marshall of the Islanders,

791
01:02:41,140 --> 01:02:42,540
moves back behind that ring.

792
01:02:42,540 --> 01:02:44,620
The Anadilist, loses control.

793
01:02:44,620 --> 01:02:46,140
Irvin takes it away.

794
01:02:46,140 --> 01:02:47,180
It's hit off the board.

795
01:02:47,180 --> 01:02:48,100
It's intended for Park.

796
01:02:48,100 --> 01:02:49,980
Knocked away and picked off by St. Laurent.

797
01:02:49,980 --> 01:02:51,060
Two on one, Howard left.

798
01:02:51,060 --> 01:02:52,140
They break in on Howard's cross.

799
01:02:52,140 --> 01:02:53,500
Break them out by St. Laurent.

800
01:02:53,500 --> 01:02:54,540
He hit the post.

801
01:02:54,540 --> 01:02:55,780
He hit the right post.

802
01:02:55,780 --> 01:02:57,780
Butler now, there's an out of the zone.

803
01:02:57,780 --> 01:02:59,300
Irvin takes it at center.

804
01:02:59,300 --> 01:03:01,660
Returns to Butler, breaks it across the Anadil line.

805
01:03:01,660 --> 01:03:03,260
It's trickles it in front for Stankowski.

806
01:03:03,260 --> 01:03:04,980
Beaten to it by Meisbrim.

807
01:03:04,980 --> 01:03:06,380
And Meisbrim breaks up ice.

808
01:03:06,380 --> 01:03:08,140
Meisbrim to center, shoots in.

809
01:03:08,140 --> 01:03:10,580
Left side of Villeneuve, sticks it away from Howard,

810
01:03:10,580 --> 01:03:12,180
cutting in from the near boards.

811
01:03:12,180 --> 01:03:13,900
And it's taken by Stankowski.

812
01:03:13,900 --> 01:03:15,060
A hit for Irvin and center.

813
01:03:15,060 --> 01:03:17,140
As Butler right flies to the end of the line.

814
01:03:17,140 --> 01:03:18,580
Back past Butler, he's out deep.

815
01:03:18,580 --> 01:03:19,740
He winds, he fires.

816
01:03:19,740 --> 01:03:22,060
Sticks save and a puny made by Smith.

817
01:03:22,060 --> 01:03:25,140
And a hard drive right on by Jerry Butler.

818
01:03:25,140 --> 01:03:26,100
Meisbrim right back.

819
01:03:26,100 --> 01:03:27,100
He's to the Ranger line.

820
01:03:27,100 --> 01:03:27,940
Back past Booner.

821
01:03:27,940 --> 01:03:28,780
Third for Meisbrim.

822
01:03:28,780 --> 01:03:29,780
Sends in front for Howard.

823
01:03:29,780 --> 01:03:31,060
Knocked aside by Harris.

824
01:03:31,060 --> 01:03:33,300
Hooked loose behind the Ranger goal line.

825
01:03:33,300 --> 01:03:35,020
Howard and Harris stick forward.

826
01:03:35,020 --> 01:03:37,580
Howard jumps hard for the penalty upcoming.

827
01:03:37,580 --> 01:03:39,340
Penalty against Howard.

828
01:03:39,340 --> 01:03:41,140
A hold is called.

829
01:03:41,140 --> 01:03:43,580
And the Rangers will have the man advantage.

830
01:03:43,580 --> 01:03:46,140
Rangers very fortunate just a moment ago.

831
01:03:46,140 --> 01:03:49,420
And that two on one side with St. Laurent.

832
01:03:49,420 --> 01:03:50,940
And Howard can again.

833
01:03:50,940 --> 01:03:52,700
St. Laurent beat Villeneuve,

834
01:03:52,700 --> 01:03:55,020
but he hit the right post square on.

835
01:03:55,020 --> 01:03:57,580
Just commented on how the defensemen were coming up.

836
01:03:57,580 --> 01:03:59,300
But that time on that play,

837
01:03:59,300 --> 01:04:02,660
Brad Poff made the move in the offensive zone

838
01:04:02,660 --> 01:04:05,860
and was trapped when the Allarders came in two on one.

839
01:04:05,860 --> 01:04:08,700
A bad penalty for Jerry Howard to take right now.

840
01:04:08,700 --> 01:04:10,860
The Rangers were getting careless in their end.

841
01:04:10,860 --> 01:04:12,460
Were not making good plays.

842
01:04:12,460 --> 01:04:14,820
And he a foolish penalty in the offensive zone

843
01:04:14,820 --> 01:04:16,740
as Harris is breaking out on the track.

844
01:04:16,740 --> 01:04:19,340
A hold on Howard at three, three, six.

845
01:04:19,340 --> 01:04:22,340
Rangers down one nothing on the first period goal

846
01:04:22,340 --> 01:04:26,660
by Clark Gillies, assisted by Bob Thorn and Burt Marshall.

847
01:04:26,660 --> 01:04:29,620
Rangers have the man advantage for the second time

848
01:04:29,620 --> 01:04:30,460
this evening.

849
01:04:30,460 --> 01:04:33,260
Ratel up front with Faburn, right pickers left.

850
01:04:33,260 --> 01:04:36,300
Joubert and Clark are at the points.

851
01:04:36,300 --> 01:04:38,420
West ball and Ratel on the space off.

852
01:04:38,420 --> 01:04:40,180
Controlled by the Rangers in the road end.

853
01:04:40,180 --> 01:04:43,420
Joubert watched by Henning, slides it ahead for Ratel.

854
01:04:43,420 --> 01:04:44,380
Ratel up to center.

855
01:04:44,380 --> 01:04:46,820
Right wing feet, Faburn across the out of the line.

856
01:04:46,820 --> 01:04:48,420
Hit from behind, gets it off to Ratel,

857
01:04:48,420 --> 01:04:49,660
crickles it in front.

858
01:04:49,660 --> 01:04:52,260
Pickers back off the play as West ball breaks it up.

859
01:04:52,260 --> 01:04:53,860
West ball now shoots it to center.

860
01:04:53,860 --> 01:04:55,180
Faburn takes there.

861
01:04:55,180 --> 01:04:58,060
Back pass to Joubert, he's at the Ranger line.

862
01:04:58,060 --> 01:04:59,940
Back the other way it goes to Park.

863
01:04:59,940 --> 01:05:01,780
Park flips it ahead for Vickers.

864
01:05:01,780 --> 01:05:04,100
Now Vickers up to the red line ahead with Talon

865
01:05:04,100 --> 01:05:05,740
across the out of the blue line.

866
01:05:05,740 --> 01:05:07,420
A lead for Faburn on the right forward.

867
01:05:07,420 --> 01:05:09,780
Moves into the slap, it is blocked by Hart.

868
01:05:09,780 --> 01:05:11,820
Faburn comes up with a buck once again.

869
01:05:11,820 --> 01:05:13,940
Cross-ice to Park, he lines it up, he shoots.

870
01:05:13,940 --> 01:05:16,260
Reflects wide, Vickers able to come up with it.

871
01:05:16,260 --> 01:05:17,900
In the corner, Vickers sets up.

872
01:05:17,900 --> 01:05:19,500
Little one, it goes to Park.

873
01:05:19,500 --> 01:05:21,220
Park back to Vickers in the corner.

874
01:05:21,220 --> 01:05:22,220
Vickers in front.

875
01:05:22,220 --> 01:05:25,300
And it will tell, he shoots, save it, a beauty by Smith.

876
01:05:25,300 --> 01:05:28,140
On the rebound, Faburn looks to keep in, cannot.

877
01:05:28,140 --> 01:05:29,500
Knocked away by West ball.

878
01:05:29,500 --> 01:05:31,540
West ball to center, puts on the brakes,

879
01:05:31,540 --> 01:05:33,140
throws it back the other way to Hart,

880
01:05:33,140 --> 01:05:34,300
at the out of the line.

881
01:05:34,300 --> 01:05:35,900
Cross-ice for Dennis Paffman at the out of the line,

882
01:05:35,900 --> 01:05:36,940
he's not killing the catch,

883
01:05:36,940 --> 01:05:39,180
Paffman shoots it ahead to center to West ball.

884
01:05:39,180 --> 01:05:41,540
He sends for the Ranger line, Park back forward now.

885
01:05:41,540 --> 01:05:43,580
55 seconds remaining, and an out of the penalty

886
01:05:43,580 --> 01:05:44,820
as the Rangers regroup the ball,

887
01:05:44,820 --> 01:05:46,940
Blake Joubert or a kill, at the out of the line.

888
01:05:46,940 --> 01:05:49,860
Back pass Vickers, not expecting, Park takes it instead.

889
01:05:49,860 --> 01:05:51,820
Off it goes to the far corner to Faburn.

890
01:05:51,820 --> 01:05:53,500
Back it goes for the right back, but Joubert,

891
01:05:53,500 --> 01:05:55,300
cross-ice, Park has the wide open shot,

892
01:05:55,300 --> 01:05:57,220
makes it in, close and stuff to Vickers.

893
01:05:57,220 --> 01:05:59,780
He's battled up, swings it off the boards at the far side.

894
01:05:59,780 --> 01:06:02,500
Faburn comes together with Penny, West ball breaks it up,

895
01:06:02,500 --> 01:06:04,060
takes it loose, tries to clear, cannot,

896
01:06:04,060 --> 01:06:05,300
kept a bunch of it at the point.

897
01:06:05,300 --> 01:06:07,540
Cross-ice, Park lines it up, throws it close to Vickers,

898
01:06:07,540 --> 01:06:09,460
off the escape, shot on goal for the Coastal,

899
01:06:09,460 --> 01:06:11,660
another fan after him, bad as heck.

900
01:06:11,660 --> 01:06:13,740
Vickers and Hart having words now,

901
01:06:13,740 --> 01:06:17,100
something you never see John Witton doing in hard,

902
01:06:17,100 --> 01:06:20,860
as he was clobbered in front of it by Jerry Hart,

903
01:06:20,860 --> 01:06:25,420
but Vickers tried to race to his rescue along with Faburn,

904
01:06:25,420 --> 01:06:29,940
but I've been snapped in, and now things have settled down.

905
01:06:31,060 --> 01:06:32,740
The Retelleges gave Hart another shot,

906
01:06:32,740 --> 01:06:34,700
Hart thought it was Joubert, he turned around

907
01:06:34,700 --> 01:06:37,140
and pushed Joubert on the play.

908
01:06:37,140 --> 01:06:39,060
Jerry Hart coming in with a stick raise

909
01:06:39,060 --> 01:06:40,980
to clear the front of the net.

910
01:06:40,980 --> 01:06:43,700
Mark Reutter to that, Billy Smith made a super save,

911
01:06:43,700 --> 01:06:47,140
a pass from Park to Vickers, to the tail in front,

912
01:06:47,140 --> 01:06:50,260
and Billy Smith somehow got his pad on it,

913
01:06:50,260 --> 01:06:53,140
a drop underneath him and he was able to cover that,

914
01:06:53,140 --> 01:06:56,420
and Hart making the good play by clearing the front of the net,

915
01:06:56,420 --> 01:06:58,540
preventing the Rangers from picking up that loose puck

916
01:06:58,540 --> 01:07:00,500
that was laying in the grease.

917
01:07:00,500 --> 01:07:03,340
Our first serious clear-up of the evening,

918
01:07:03,340 --> 01:07:07,420
following last night's record of 50 penalties called,

919
01:07:07,420 --> 01:07:10,540
establishing a new national hockey league record

920
01:07:10,540 --> 01:07:14,340
for most penalties for both teams in a Stanley Cup game.

921
01:07:14,340 --> 01:07:16,620
Previous record of 43-7 last season's

922
01:07:16,620 --> 01:07:19,980
title round series between the Flyers and the Bruins,

923
01:07:19,980 --> 01:07:22,980
no penalties being called right here, yes they are.

924
01:07:24,380 --> 01:07:25,980
Now the penalties are being called,

925
01:07:25,980 --> 01:07:29,420
Billy Faber is setting off,

926
01:07:32,620 --> 01:07:36,020
and Dennis Putman is hit with a charm.

927
01:07:36,020 --> 01:07:40,260
Well, the principals are nothing in the penalties.

928
01:07:43,380 --> 01:07:48,380
And Faber, also hit with a primitive penalty

929
01:07:48,380 --> 01:07:50,140
managing a foul away from Hart,

930
01:07:50,140 --> 01:07:53,140
Lieutenant Joubert, who are actually in Peru,

931
01:07:53,140 --> 01:07:55,980
remain on ice.

932
01:07:55,980 --> 01:07:58,740
Ratel stays out there, now Hart goes back to the bench,

933
01:07:59,740 --> 01:08:01,180
and we got a face-off coming up,

934
01:08:01,180 --> 01:08:04,780
it's a four on three, Rangers are skating advantage right now.

935
01:08:04,780 --> 01:08:07,020
Rangers down, one nothing, they control the face,

936
01:08:07,020 --> 01:08:09,620
Park at the right part, Park comes in,

937
01:08:09,620 --> 01:08:11,980
clicks over to Joubert at the far side,

938
01:08:11,980 --> 01:08:14,300
backs up, throws in post for the 10 of a track,

939
01:08:14,300 --> 01:08:16,980
but Joubert lights it up, he's shot, blocked by Lewis,

940
01:08:16,980 --> 01:08:18,380
and it's cleared out of the way down,

941
01:08:18,380 --> 01:08:20,980
golf coming from the ice by Westboro.

942
01:08:22,100 --> 01:08:23,860
10 seconds remaining to that Ranger,

943
01:08:23,860 --> 01:08:26,500
four on three as Park goes to center.

944
01:08:26,500 --> 01:08:28,180
Park slides it ahead for Joubert

945
01:08:28,180 --> 01:08:29,260
at the outer of the blue line,

946
01:08:29,260 --> 01:08:32,300
Joubert cuts to the far side, now looks to set up,

947
01:08:32,300 --> 01:08:34,580
throws in for a pick as a shot wide,

948
01:08:34,580 --> 01:08:36,900
now here is Howard back on, I feel it,

949
01:08:36,900 --> 01:08:38,860
and Joubert comes together at the far side,

950
01:08:38,860 --> 01:08:40,780
and Lewis having to clear it out of his own.

951
01:08:40,780 --> 01:08:42,620
So now both clubs down a man,

952
01:08:42,620 --> 01:08:45,460
with a minute 20 remaining on the penalties

953
01:08:45,460 --> 01:08:47,100
to Dennis Puffman and Billy Fairburn,

954
01:08:47,100 --> 01:08:49,220
and with both clubs even,

955
01:08:49,220 --> 01:08:51,260
the Islanders are called for icing the puck

956
01:08:51,260 --> 01:08:52,940
as they start up the length of the ice.

957
01:08:52,940 --> 01:08:54,460
So they bring it back for a face off

958
01:08:54,460 --> 01:08:56,620
to the left side of Billy Smith.

959
01:08:56,620 --> 01:08:59,220
Again, the Island defenseman coming up with a big save

960
01:08:59,220 --> 01:09:02,420
on Joubert's shot, Dave Lewis just sprawling

961
01:09:02,420 --> 01:09:03,780
and made an excellent save,

962
01:09:03,780 --> 01:09:05,660
preventing the puck from going in,

963
01:09:05,660 --> 01:09:07,500
Joubert off on the open point,

964
01:09:07,500 --> 01:09:09,020
decided to try and drive it through

965
01:09:09,020 --> 01:09:11,820
with Rattelle breaking from the right in on Smith,

966
01:09:11,820 --> 01:09:16,060
and Vickers in his usual spot on the left side.

967
01:09:16,060 --> 01:09:19,900
Rangers now go with Sanderson and Rueber for a punt for one,

968
01:09:19,900 --> 01:09:21,940
and Greshner are back,

969
01:09:21,940 --> 01:09:24,820
Bourne and Billy Harris up front for the Islanders,

970
01:09:24,820 --> 01:09:28,540
Marshall and Lewis on the back line.

971
01:09:28,540 --> 01:09:31,540
It'll be Sanderson against Bourne on this draw,

972
01:09:31,540 --> 01:09:35,820
14.08 left, second period, Rangers trail one nothing,

973
01:09:35,820 --> 01:09:38,100
and the face off, Lewis sends in for Lewis,

974
01:09:38,100 --> 01:09:40,100
intercepts ahead for Harris,

975
01:09:40,100 --> 01:09:42,180
Billy Harris to the Islanders, circles it as all that,

976
01:09:42,180 --> 01:09:43,460
gives off to Marshall,

977
01:09:43,460 --> 01:09:46,140
and then a return to Harris who breaks to center.

978
01:09:46,140 --> 01:09:48,780
Stopped by Sanderson as Smith checks it away,

979
01:09:48,780 --> 01:09:50,580
now Derrick pulls the string on Bourne,

980
01:09:50,580 --> 01:09:52,100
a back pass for Greshner.

981
01:09:52,100 --> 01:09:53,580
Greshner up to the out of the line,

982
01:09:53,580 --> 01:09:56,460
he stick handles in, he cuts to his left side,

983
01:09:56,460 --> 01:09:58,660
Master Roller cross ice knocked away

984
01:09:58,660 --> 01:09:59,980
by the stick of Marshall.

985
01:09:59,980 --> 01:10:02,740
Greshner tangled up, Marshall knocks it out to center,

986
01:10:02,740 --> 01:10:04,420
pick up by Harris, leading up two on one

987
01:10:04,420 --> 01:10:06,260
across the range of Albert Bourne,

988
01:10:06,260 --> 01:10:08,780
pass to Flickett in front, but it's broken up by Marrung,

989
01:10:08,780 --> 01:10:12,500
now penalty is called, a penalty upcoming on the Rangers.

990
01:10:13,380 --> 01:10:17,460
A tripping penalty indicated on one Greshner.

991
01:10:18,580 --> 01:10:20,380
Greshner got himself in difficulty,

992
01:10:20,380 --> 01:10:23,260
back up the Ranger blue line,

993
01:10:23,260 --> 01:10:25,820
and now the Islanders will have the man advantage,

994
01:10:25,820 --> 01:10:29,380
it'll be a four on three skating advantage for 38 seconds.

995
01:10:29,380 --> 01:10:31,460
Billy Harris morphing the play,

996
01:10:31,460 --> 01:10:33,860
he's prevented Greshner from making that play

997
01:10:33,860 --> 01:10:37,060
in the Islander zone, kept pushing the pump towards him,

998
01:10:37,060 --> 01:10:39,300
by Greshner, Greshner pulled him down,

999
01:10:39,300 --> 01:10:40,980
but Harris was able to get up again

1000
01:10:40,980 --> 01:10:42,340
and skate in for the two on one,

1001
01:10:42,340 --> 01:10:44,100
and what a play Gilles Marotte made,

1002
01:10:44,100 --> 01:10:45,900
with Grewin grouping down to center.

1003
01:10:46,900 --> 01:10:50,300
Tripping on Greshner at 6-3-0,

1004
01:10:50,300 --> 01:10:53,340
face off coming up left side of the Ranger up.

1005
01:10:55,100 --> 01:10:58,660
Rangers now go with Sanderson, Marrung, and Harris.

1006
01:11:02,180 --> 01:11:05,300
Greshner and Bourne in the penalty box,

1007
01:11:05,300 --> 01:11:07,780
and the Islanders go to Grewin,

1008
01:11:07,780 --> 01:11:12,780
but we see Billy Harris, and Pippen stepping on,

1009
01:11:12,900 --> 01:11:15,140
and Bob, the power play opportunities,

1010
01:11:15,140 --> 01:11:17,540
the Rangers, unsuccessful in two,

1011
01:11:17,540 --> 01:11:20,180
this is the Islander's second attempt.

1012
01:11:20,180 --> 01:11:22,140
Here's the face now, left side of the Ranger,

1013
01:11:22,140 --> 01:11:24,380
that controlled by the Islanders, Harris to the point,

1014
01:11:24,380 --> 01:11:26,060
but it's intercepted by Sanderson,

1015
01:11:26,060 --> 01:11:27,860
post to center with a drop for Harris,

1016
01:11:27,860 --> 01:11:29,820
Harris breaks in across the end of the line,

1017
01:11:29,820 --> 01:11:31,900
a pass for Sanderson, broken up by Harris,

1018
01:11:31,900 --> 01:11:34,540
leads it two on one, Harris around Marrung,

1019
01:11:34,540 --> 01:11:36,140
and we got a whistle for an offside,

1020
01:11:36,140 --> 01:11:39,020
with Parisi just in ahead of the play.

1021
01:11:39,020 --> 01:11:41,860
Derek Sanderson making the behind the back pass,

1022
01:11:41,860 --> 01:11:44,540
it didn't pay off, Ronnie Harris is a little bit

1023
01:11:44,540 --> 01:11:47,100
further away than Sanderson anticipated,

1024
01:11:47,100 --> 01:11:48,860
and the Islanders going in on that play,

1025
01:11:48,860 --> 01:11:51,060
Parisi going offside, but Gilles Marotte

1026
01:11:51,060 --> 01:11:53,660
forcing Harris to slow up as he hit the blue line,

1027
01:11:53,660 --> 01:11:55,980
by just sprawling in Harris' way.

1028
01:11:55,980 --> 01:11:59,980
A minute 46 remaining to that Islander advantage,

1029
01:11:59,980 --> 01:12:03,540
24 seconds to a three-way advantage,

1030
01:12:03,540 --> 01:12:06,940
because when Faber and Dennis Popman return,

1031
01:12:06,940 --> 01:12:09,220
it'll be a five on four skating advantage

1032
01:12:09,220 --> 01:12:11,060
for the Islanders, face off now between

1033
01:12:11,060 --> 01:12:13,180
Willie Harris and Derek Sanderson at the Ranger line,

1034
01:12:13,180 --> 01:12:14,620
it's sent to the far boards of Ranger,

1035
01:12:14,620 --> 01:12:16,300
Parisi chasing it all up hard,

1036
01:12:16,300 --> 01:12:18,100
Mark has the back pass behind his goal line,

1037
01:12:18,100 --> 01:12:20,300
Marotte there, comes together with Harris,

1038
01:12:20,300 --> 01:12:21,460
all right able to wind it around,

1039
01:12:21,460 --> 01:12:24,220
pass to Drew at the point, and all the way down.

1040
01:12:24,220 --> 01:12:26,300
Willie Smith stops it up the side of the net,

1041
01:12:26,300 --> 01:12:29,220
and leads for John Popman, now Popman starts up,

1042
01:12:29,220 --> 01:12:31,620
Popman out of the zone, east to center,

1043
01:12:31,620 --> 01:12:34,340
he's up across the Ranger line, a drop on Parisi,

1044
01:12:34,340 --> 01:12:36,340
back for Popman at the point, he lights it up,

1045
01:12:36,340 --> 01:12:38,100
cross-sides Drew, and he lights it up,

1046
01:12:38,100 --> 01:12:40,300
a slap shot is deflected high in the air,

1047
01:12:40,300 --> 01:12:42,420
and up into the crowd to the right side,

1048
01:12:42,420 --> 01:12:43,660
how about the Ranger now?

1049
01:12:43,660 --> 01:12:47,500
All right now, Villamur complaining to Bruce Hood,

1050
01:12:47,500 --> 01:12:49,900
Billy Harris deflected the puck into the crowd,

1051
01:12:49,900 --> 01:12:51,340
he's making sure Hood did not know

1052
01:12:51,340 --> 01:12:52,940
who deflected into the crowd,

1053
01:12:52,940 --> 01:12:54,300
Villamur talking to Hood about it,

1054
01:12:54,300 --> 01:12:55,820
Hood consults his linesman,

1055
01:12:55,820 --> 01:12:58,420
and the face off's coming up, and that was it.

1056
01:12:58,420 --> 01:13:02,980
And now the clock, I believe, did not start right at the whistle,

1057
01:13:02,980 --> 01:13:04,700
and they're adjusting it right now,

1058
01:13:04,700 --> 01:13:07,900
Villamur was slamming a sniper, a play was going on,

1059
01:13:07,900 --> 01:13:09,500
and that's exactly what happened,

1060
01:13:09,500 --> 01:13:11,380
they're adjusting that clock now,

1061
01:13:11,380 --> 01:13:13,500
to read down the seconds that they lost,

1062
01:13:13,500 --> 01:13:16,420
they do not only use the clock that's up on the board,

1063
01:13:16,420 --> 01:13:19,140
the timekeeper also keeps a stopwatch,

1064
01:13:19,140 --> 01:13:21,540
we have Philadelphia timekeepers here tonight,

1065
01:13:21,540 --> 01:13:22,780
Philadelphia minor officials,

1066
01:13:22,780 --> 01:13:25,700
so they know what to drop the time down to,

1067
01:13:25,700 --> 01:13:27,980
and they're dropping it down to 12.51 remaining,

1068
01:13:27,980 --> 01:13:32,980
and a minute and 21 remaining on Ron Greshner's penalty,

1069
01:13:32,980 --> 01:13:34,780
that was about 10 seconds that had elapsed

1070
01:13:34,780 --> 01:13:36,220
before the clock was started.

1071
01:13:37,340 --> 01:13:40,140
In other words, they keep a stopwatch as a spam,

1072
01:13:40,140 --> 01:13:42,060
in case something like that should happen,

1073
01:13:42,060 --> 01:13:44,340
and that's how they knew where to go,

1074
01:13:44,340 --> 01:13:46,940
to what point on the clock to go to

1075
01:13:46,940 --> 01:13:49,300
during this timeout right now.

1076
01:13:49,300 --> 01:13:51,860
You work as a minor official over the years, right,

1077
01:13:51,860 --> 01:13:52,980
or you handle the clock, don't you?

1078
01:13:52,980 --> 01:13:54,780
I handle it on occasion,

1079
01:13:54,780 --> 01:13:57,420
I would use mostly as a penalty timekeeper, a statistician.

1080
01:13:57,420 --> 01:13:59,300
All right, here's the face outside the ranger line,

1081
01:13:59,300 --> 01:14:01,660
Bruin and Sanderson on the draw,

1082
01:14:01,660 --> 01:14:04,620
the penalties on Fairburn and Dennis Potman have expired,

1083
01:14:04,620 --> 01:14:06,420
a minute and 20 remaining on that Greshner penalty,

1084
01:14:06,420 --> 01:14:08,900
Rangers have the man down,

1085
01:14:08,900 --> 01:14:10,660
on the face off, Potman shoots in,

1086
01:14:10,660 --> 01:14:12,700
that's Dennis flipping right side of the,

1087
01:14:12,700 --> 01:14:13,540
good with your clock out,

1088
01:14:13,540 --> 01:14:14,380
good roll with Parisi,

1089
01:14:14,380 --> 01:14:15,620
pass, slides it around the board,

1090
01:14:15,620 --> 01:14:18,220
but Dennis, Dennis Harris cuts it off at the near side,

1091
01:14:18,220 --> 01:14:20,980
Harris circles, now cuts to the near corner,

1092
01:14:20,980 --> 01:14:23,940
back pass for Parisi at the ranger goal line,

1093
01:14:23,940 --> 01:14:25,100
he looks to set up,

1094
01:14:25,100 --> 01:14:26,940
throws it to the side of the net for Harris,

1095
01:14:26,940 --> 01:14:28,660
Harris back out to John Potman,

1096
01:14:28,660 --> 01:14:30,060
watched by Sanderson,

1097
01:14:30,060 --> 01:14:32,020
rolls it cross-ice to Dennis Potman,

1098
01:14:32,020 --> 01:14:33,660
shoots it in the corner to Bruin,

1099
01:14:33,660 --> 01:14:34,740
Bruin looking to set up,

1100
01:14:34,740 --> 01:14:36,260
very carefully back to the court,

1101
01:14:36,260 --> 01:14:37,260
to Dennis Potman,

1102
01:14:37,260 --> 01:14:38,140
throws to the side of the net,

1103
01:14:38,140 --> 01:14:39,860
and Parisi back out for Bruin,

1104
01:14:39,860 --> 01:14:41,260
he shoots at it wide,

1105
01:14:41,260 --> 01:14:43,100
it rolls around the boards for John Potman

1106
01:14:43,100 --> 01:14:43,980
at the right point,

1107
01:14:43,980 --> 01:14:45,020
watched by Sanderson,

1108
01:14:45,020 --> 01:14:45,860
out of the setting up,

1109
01:14:45,860 --> 01:14:47,140
a very deliberate fashion setting up,

1110
01:14:47,140 --> 01:14:48,700
well cross-ice Dennis Potman,

1111
01:14:48,700 --> 01:14:51,020
shot blocked, and it's rolled out of the zone.

1112
01:14:51,020 --> 01:14:52,260
Potman chases it down,

1113
01:14:52,260 --> 01:14:54,460
half minute remaining on that ranger penalty,

1114
01:14:54,460 --> 01:14:55,740
a pass ahead for Billy Harris,

1115
01:14:55,740 --> 01:14:58,220
makes a shove from Faber when he slammed to the board,

1116
01:14:58,220 --> 01:15:00,420
John Potman retreats and sends in,

1117
01:15:00,420 --> 01:15:02,460
right side of Villamur makes the stick stop,

1118
01:15:02,460 --> 01:15:04,420
steers it onto the stick of Sanderson,

1119
01:15:04,420 --> 01:15:05,940
tries to flick it around the boards,

1120
01:15:05,940 --> 01:15:09,420
but it ends up deflecting to the crowd at the near side,

1121
01:15:09,420 --> 01:15:10,460
and players call,

1122
01:15:10,460 --> 01:15:13,180
20 seconds remaining on that Greshner penalty,

1123
01:15:13,180 --> 01:15:14,540
rangers down 1-0,

1124
01:15:14,540 --> 01:15:16,300
the islander goal in the first,

1125
01:15:16,300 --> 01:15:17,780
at the 16 minute mark,

1126
01:15:17,780 --> 01:15:20,540
scored by Clark Gillies from Bob Bourne,

1127
01:15:20,540 --> 01:15:21,780
and Bert Marko,

1128
01:15:21,780 --> 01:15:24,540
a jump from the angle from 30-35 feet out

1129
01:15:24,540 --> 01:15:25,780
for the right side of Villamur,

1130
01:15:25,780 --> 01:15:27,260
that beat him between his legs,

1131
01:15:27,260 --> 01:15:28,460
beat him between the fans,

1132
01:15:28,460 --> 01:15:29,980
face off coming up now,

1133
01:15:29,980 --> 01:15:31,580
left side of Villamur,

1134
01:15:31,580 --> 01:15:33,660
that'll be Sanderson on this face off,

1135
01:15:33,660 --> 01:15:35,660
against Saint Laurent,

1136
01:15:35,660 --> 01:15:36,860
11-5,

1137
01:15:36,860 --> 01:15:38,460
remaining in the second period.

1138
01:15:40,300 --> 01:15:41,060
Now the linesman,

1139
01:15:41,060 --> 01:15:42,220
Schaffer, another leans in,

1140
01:15:42,220 --> 01:15:44,060
gets up to drop that puck,

1141
01:15:44,060 --> 01:15:46,380
with Saint Laurent leading in now,

1142
01:15:47,500 --> 01:15:49,140
now it's dropped, sent to the near corner,

1143
01:15:49,140 --> 01:15:49,980
and Ranger Rice,

1144
01:15:49,980 --> 01:15:51,700
parked there, he's hemmed in,

1145
01:15:51,700 --> 01:15:52,740
loses control,

1146
01:15:52,740 --> 01:15:54,140
Nicecomb stick kicks it away,

1147
01:15:54,140 --> 01:15:56,060
Villamur comes out to wind it around,

1148
01:15:56,060 --> 01:15:58,380
Faber looks to face down on Potman,

1149
01:15:58,380 --> 01:15:59,220
they both over-scape,

1150
01:15:59,220 --> 01:16:00,660
and Potman recovers out for the slot,

1151
01:16:00,660 --> 01:16:01,660
Nicecomb to the right point,

1152
01:16:01,660 --> 01:16:02,660
John Potman, he lines it up,

1153
01:16:02,660 --> 01:16:04,180
he shoots, scores!

1154
01:16:04,180 --> 01:16:06,100
It is deflected in,

1155
01:16:06,100 --> 01:16:07,500
from in front of the net,

1156
01:16:07,500 --> 01:16:09,180
by Dennis Potman,

1157
01:16:09,180 --> 01:16:10,340
and the islanders,

1158
01:16:10,340 --> 01:16:11,980
with the power play goal,

1159
01:16:11,980 --> 01:16:13,340
have jumped in front,

1160
01:16:13,340 --> 01:16:15,060
by the score of 2-0,

1161
01:16:15,060 --> 01:16:17,300
there are only four seconds remaining,

1162
01:16:17,300 --> 01:16:18,860
on that Greshner penalty.

1163
01:16:18,860 --> 01:16:20,340
Dennis Potman doing the job,

1164
01:16:20,340 --> 01:16:21,740
setting up the play,

1165
01:16:21,740 --> 01:16:22,780
going in front of the net,

1166
01:16:22,780 --> 01:16:24,660
deflect the shot in by,

1167
01:16:24,660 --> 01:16:27,300
from, from brother John Potman,

1168
01:16:27,300 --> 01:16:28,420
Potman shot low,

1169
01:16:28,420 --> 01:16:29,820
right in on the center of the net,

1170
01:16:29,820 --> 01:16:30,660
and deflected it,

1171
01:16:30,660 --> 01:16:32,620
Potman eluding both Billy Faber,

1172
01:16:32,620 --> 01:16:33,460
both the other one,

1173
01:16:33,460 --> 01:16:34,460
eluding both Billy Faber,

1174
01:16:34,460 --> 01:16:36,260
and Ron Harris on the far board.

1175
01:16:36,260 --> 01:16:37,660
Here's the face off at center,

1176
01:16:37,660 --> 01:16:39,420
Baratt takes Smith to Ranger Line,

1177
01:16:39,420 --> 01:16:40,780
crosses Pichter,

1178
01:16:40,780 --> 01:16:41,940
and leads for Butler,

1179
01:16:41,940 --> 01:16:42,780
over-scapes,

1180
01:16:42,780 --> 01:16:43,780
Howard knocks it back,

1181
01:16:43,780 --> 01:16:44,620
the other one,

1182
01:16:44,620 --> 01:16:45,460
Stankowski keeps in,

1183
01:16:45,460 --> 01:16:46,980
drops it left side of Smith,

1184
01:16:46,980 --> 01:16:48,740
Lewis winds it around the board,

1185
01:16:48,740 --> 01:16:50,100
Nicecomb takes there,

1186
01:16:50,100 --> 01:16:51,980
looks to move around Urban and Dug,

1187
01:16:51,980 --> 01:16:52,900
shoots it out to center,

1188
01:16:52,900 --> 01:16:53,940
plays his own pass,

1189
01:16:53,940 --> 01:16:55,500
he's up to the Ranger Line,

1190
01:16:55,500 --> 01:16:56,460
breaks to his right,

1191
01:16:56,460 --> 01:16:57,500
loses control,

1192
01:16:57,500 --> 01:16:58,660
Baratt whips it around,

1193
01:16:58,660 --> 01:16:59,500
Whitmore and Horne,

1194
01:16:59,500 --> 01:17:01,380
come together at the far side,

1195
01:17:01,380 --> 01:17:03,900
a check by Stankowski on Howard knocked away,

1196
01:17:03,900 --> 01:17:05,260
it is picked up by Urban,

1197
01:17:05,260 --> 01:17:06,100
he loses control,

1198
01:17:06,100 --> 01:17:06,940
comes to the board,

1199
01:17:06,940 --> 01:17:08,180
shift that beast to his right,

1200
01:17:08,180 --> 01:17:09,260
on the rebound,

1201
01:17:09,260 --> 01:17:10,420
Rangers fail to clear the,

1202
01:17:10,420 --> 01:17:11,540
Baratt gets to it,

1203
01:17:11,540 --> 01:17:12,980
and shoots it out of the zone.

1204
01:17:12,980 --> 01:17:14,460
Urban in pursuit along with Lewis,

1205
01:17:14,460 --> 01:17:15,300
and the others,

1206
01:17:15,300 --> 01:17:16,140
Lewis gets to it,

1207
01:17:16,140 --> 01:17:16,980
a hit to Nicecomb,

1208
01:17:16,980 --> 01:17:18,340
Nicecomb over across the Ranger Line,

1209
01:17:18,340 --> 01:17:19,180
here's his shot,

1210
01:17:19,180 --> 01:17:20,020
went by Baratt,

1211
01:17:20,020 --> 01:17:21,500
and he holds on.

1212
01:17:21,500 --> 01:17:22,340
Play is called,

1213
01:17:22,340 --> 01:17:23,460
we're gonna face off now,

1214
01:17:23,460 --> 01:17:25,260
deep in Ranger ice,

1215
01:17:25,260 --> 01:17:26,460
and right now,

1216
01:17:26,460 --> 01:17:28,180
with 10 minutes and 50 seconds

1217
01:17:28,180 --> 01:17:29,940
remaining on the second period,

1218
01:17:29,940 --> 01:17:31,380
the Islanders cloud 2-0,

1219
01:17:31,380 --> 01:17:32,820
the goal by Dennis Potvin,

1220
01:17:32,820 --> 01:17:34,540
from other town,

1221
01:17:34,540 --> 01:17:35,380
Potvin,

1222
01:17:35,380 --> 01:17:36,220
who took the shot,

1223
01:17:36,220 --> 01:17:37,460
and Brad Nicecomb,

1224
01:17:37,460 --> 01:17:38,540
at 8.26,

1225
01:17:38,540 --> 01:17:40,500
and right now the Rangers are playing

1226
01:17:40,500 --> 01:17:43,420
for their 1974-75,

1227
01:17:43,420 --> 01:17:45,540
Lions trailing 2-0.

1228
01:17:45,540 --> 01:17:46,860
And it's gonna be a long road,

1229
01:17:46,860 --> 01:17:48,140
Billy Smith has been playing

1230
01:17:48,140 --> 01:17:51,100
super and paid 40 New York Islanders,

1231
01:17:51,100 --> 01:17:52,700
and the Islanders are

1232
01:17:52,700 --> 01:17:53,940
the inspired hockey club,

1233
01:17:53,940 --> 01:17:55,140
they have the 2-0 lead,

1234
01:17:55,140 --> 01:17:56,060
they've beaten the Rangers

1235
01:17:56,060 --> 01:17:57,420
the last two times,

1236
01:17:57,420 --> 01:17:58,540
here at the Garden,

1237
01:17:58,540 --> 01:18:00,020
a tough checking team,

1238
01:18:00,020 --> 01:18:01,460
and they're gonna be checking

1239
01:18:01,460 --> 01:18:03,660
real strong for the rest of this hockey game.

1240
01:18:03,660 --> 01:18:05,020
Face off coming up now,

1241
01:18:05,020 --> 01:18:05,940
in Ranger ice,

1242
01:18:05,940 --> 01:18:07,420
and Bruin and Rotel,

1243
01:18:07,420 --> 01:18:08,300
on the draw,

1244
01:18:08,300 --> 01:18:09,260
puck is dropped,

1245
01:18:09,260 --> 01:18:10,100
puck is loose,

1246
01:18:10,100 --> 01:18:10,940
comes to the point,

1247
01:18:10,940 --> 01:18:11,780
Marshall to drive,

1248
01:18:11,780 --> 01:18:13,180
it is deflected short,

1249
01:18:13,180 --> 01:18:14,740
stick to side by Billamur,

1250
01:18:14,740 --> 01:18:16,540
chase by Park in the corner,

1251
01:18:16,540 --> 01:18:18,700
now Park makes his move on Bruin,

1252
01:18:18,700 --> 01:18:19,620
Park's stickhandle,

1253
01:18:19,620 --> 01:18:21,180
the stick is in the corner,

1254
01:18:21,180 --> 01:18:22,020
it's all over,

1255
01:18:22,020 --> 01:18:23,500
Park up to center now,

1256
01:18:23,500 --> 01:18:24,700
Bruin continues to do

1257
01:18:24,700 --> 01:18:26,540
a tremendous checking to it,

1258
01:18:26,540 --> 01:18:28,660
he ties Park up at the far side,

1259
01:18:28,660 --> 01:18:29,940
Park kicks it aside,

1260
01:18:29,940 --> 01:18:31,020
off to Gilbert,

1261
01:18:31,020 --> 01:18:32,740
leads Rotel at the out of the line,

1262
01:18:32,740 --> 01:18:33,820
goes into the backhand of it,

1263
01:18:33,820 --> 01:18:34,660
it's blocked,

1264
01:18:34,660 --> 01:18:36,140
it trickles behind the net,

1265
01:18:36,140 --> 01:18:37,580
a battle for it there,

1266
01:18:37,580 --> 01:18:38,620
it is still loose,

1267
01:18:38,620 --> 01:18:40,580
Marisi and Gilbert digging behind

1268
01:18:40,580 --> 01:18:41,460
that out of the net,

1269
01:18:41,460 --> 01:18:43,100
Rickers races for it,

1270
01:18:43,100 --> 01:18:44,380
picks it up behind the goal,

1271
01:18:44,380 --> 01:18:45,220
looks to get it out,

1272
01:18:45,220 --> 01:18:46,180
he does the house,

1273
01:18:46,180 --> 01:18:47,020
he lines it up,

1274
01:18:47,020 --> 01:18:47,860
he shoots,

1275
01:18:47,860 --> 01:18:49,260
they've made a pop tie in the air,

1276
01:18:49,260 --> 01:18:50,100
behind the net,

1277
01:18:50,100 --> 01:18:51,020
landed down by Vickers,

1278
01:18:51,020 --> 01:18:52,220
Vickers puts it in front,

1279
01:18:52,220 --> 01:18:53,060
knocked away,

1280
01:18:53,060 --> 01:18:53,900
puts it in front against Gilbert,

1281
01:18:53,900 --> 01:18:54,740
he shoots,

1282
01:18:54,740 --> 01:18:56,140
and it's stopped by the defender,

1283
01:18:56,140 --> 01:18:57,380
comes to Harris at the point,

1284
01:18:57,380 --> 01:18:58,220
throws it in,

1285
01:18:58,220 --> 01:18:59,660
Vickers cases down in the corner,

1286
01:18:59,660 --> 01:19:01,180
Vickers looks to get it out to Park,

1287
01:19:01,180 --> 01:19:02,420
broken up by Westfall,

1288
01:19:02,420 --> 01:19:03,940
and he shoots it out of the zone.

1289
01:19:03,940 --> 01:19:05,700
Ron Harris back for it now,

1290
01:19:05,700 --> 01:19:07,740
Harris holds it away from Marisi,

1291
01:19:07,740 --> 01:19:09,140
cross-hides pass for Gilbert,

1292
01:19:09,140 --> 01:19:10,380
leads Rotel at center,

1293
01:19:10,380 --> 01:19:12,140
Rotel in across the outer line,

1294
01:19:12,140 --> 01:19:13,100
drop pass for Vickers,

1295
01:19:13,100 --> 01:19:14,340
who's out deep back for Rotel,

1296
01:19:14,340 --> 01:19:15,340
and close he goes into the shot,

1297
01:19:15,340 --> 01:19:17,380
save made off the right pass of Smith,

1298
01:19:17,380 --> 01:19:19,420
loose behind the goal on the rebound,

1299
01:19:19,420 --> 01:19:21,980
Lewis and Gilbert combined to freeze it,

1300
01:19:21,980 --> 01:19:23,380
and play a spell.

1301
01:19:23,380 --> 01:19:25,020
What a game from Billy Smith.

1302
01:19:25,940 --> 01:19:26,780
Soap for Soap,

1303
01:19:26,780 --> 01:19:27,620
a save, a run,

1304
01:19:27,620 --> 01:19:29,540
and it's a puck hitting him in the arm,

1305
01:19:29,540 --> 01:19:31,060
bouncing way up in the air,

1306
01:19:31,060 --> 01:19:32,060
behind the cage,

1307
01:19:32,060 --> 01:19:34,140
Vickers throwing it back out to Rotel,

1308
01:19:34,140 --> 01:19:36,020
Rotel shooting and

1309
01:19:36,020 --> 01:19:37,860
going to the other side off Smith's pad,

1310
01:19:37,860 --> 01:19:39,460
and Smith just slid across

1311
01:19:39,460 --> 01:19:40,900
to stop a shot by Gilbert,

1312
01:19:40,900 --> 01:19:42,340
the Rangers come right back,

1313
01:19:42,340 --> 01:19:44,020
Rotel a close in shot,

1314
01:19:44,020 --> 01:19:44,900
Smith is there,

1315
01:19:44,900 --> 01:19:46,020
what a game.

1316
01:19:46,020 --> 01:19:47,580
9.37,

1317
01:19:47,580 --> 01:19:48,940
remaining second period,

1318
01:19:48,940 --> 01:19:50,420
Islanders two,

1319
01:19:50,420 --> 01:19:51,980
Rangers nothing.

1320
01:19:51,980 --> 01:19:53,540
It's the third and final game

1321
01:19:53,540 --> 01:19:55,460
of this past two and three,

1322
01:19:55,460 --> 01:19:57,660
and this Ranger crowd here at the guard

1323
01:19:57,660 --> 01:19:58,860
now coming alive,

1324
01:19:58,860 --> 01:20:01,060
looking to urge the Rangers on.

1325
01:20:02,060 --> 01:20:04,380
Kukuk steps on with Polis left,

1326
01:20:04,380 --> 01:20:05,420
Fabon right,

1327
01:20:05,420 --> 01:20:06,380
a run,

1328
01:20:06,380 --> 01:20:07,740
and Brechner are back,

1329
01:20:07,740 --> 01:20:09,980
born and Kukuk on this face off.

1330
01:20:11,300 --> 01:20:13,740
It's to the right side of Billy Smith,

1331
01:20:13,740 --> 01:20:15,060
they both jump the gun,

1332
01:20:15,060 --> 01:20:16,780
and Ray Schepanetto says,

1333
01:20:16,780 --> 01:20:18,700
let's get someone else.

1334
01:20:18,700 --> 01:20:20,980
Apparently he's satisfied with the two,

1335
01:20:20,980 --> 01:20:21,660
no he's not,

1336
01:20:21,660 --> 01:20:23,820
he wants a two new face off man,

1337
01:20:23,820 --> 01:20:25,860
and Polis and Billy Harris step in now,

1338
01:20:25,860 --> 01:20:26,900
punch drop,

1339
01:20:26,900 --> 01:20:27,940
and we,

1340
01:20:27,940 --> 01:20:29,300
and a whistle once again.

1341
01:20:30,500 --> 01:20:32,700
They're getting a little

1342
01:20:32,700 --> 01:20:34,140
overly concerned I think about

1343
01:20:34,140 --> 01:20:35,460
face offs here, sir.

1344
01:20:35,460 --> 01:20:36,940
I think somebody else jumped the gun,

1345
01:20:36,940 --> 01:20:38,060
not the centers this time,

1346
01:20:38,060 --> 01:20:40,740
they're keeping Harris and Polis in,

1347
01:20:40,740 --> 01:20:42,460
both Walter Kachuk and Bob Bourne,

1348
01:20:42,460 --> 01:20:44,260
who had thrown out his face off,

1349
01:20:44,260 --> 01:20:45,860
and then were on the board,

1350
01:20:45,860 --> 01:20:46,820
they jumped into that circle

1351
01:20:46,820 --> 01:20:47,860
before the puck was dropped,

1352
01:20:47,860 --> 01:20:49,340
one of the other officials blew the whistle.

1353
01:20:49,340 --> 01:20:50,260
Now they try it again,

1354
01:20:50,260 --> 01:20:51,860
of this time we got a clean face off,

1355
01:20:51,860 --> 01:20:52,740
it's sent to the next corner,

1356
01:20:52,740 --> 01:20:53,860
Dennis Wampen rolls it around,

1357
01:20:53,860 --> 01:20:55,340
back behind is not for Hart,

1358
01:20:55,340 --> 01:20:56,540
Hart checked by Fabron,

1359
01:20:56,540 --> 01:20:57,460
shoots it out of the zone,

1360
01:20:57,460 --> 01:20:58,300
a chase board,

1361
01:20:58,300 --> 01:20:59,140
born up with it,

1362
01:20:59,140 --> 01:21:00,020
he's in across the range alive,

1363
01:21:00,020 --> 01:21:00,860
makes the move,

1364
01:21:00,860 --> 01:21:01,700
back pass,

1365
01:21:01,700 --> 01:21:02,540
Harris shoots at it,

1366
01:21:02,540 --> 01:21:03,380
goes wide,

1367
01:21:03,380 --> 01:21:04,700
on the rebound is Wayfod Kachuk,

1368
01:21:04,700 --> 01:21:05,740
a hit for Brechner,

1369
01:21:05,740 --> 01:21:06,820
Brechner to center,

1370
01:21:06,820 --> 01:21:08,900
a lead that is overthrown,

1371
01:21:08,900 --> 01:21:10,060
Hart is back for it now,

1372
01:21:10,060 --> 01:21:11,500
back behind the outer net,

1373
01:21:11,500 --> 01:21:12,860
whips it around the board,

1374
01:21:12,860 --> 01:21:14,260
Wayfod Kachuk,

1375
01:21:14,260 --> 01:21:15,780
and he shoots it out of the zone,

1376
01:21:15,780 --> 01:21:17,220
Marant flags it down at center,

1377
01:21:17,220 --> 01:21:18,540
back pass for Greshner,

1378
01:21:18,540 --> 01:21:20,380
back the other way it goes to Marant,

1379
01:21:20,380 --> 01:21:22,060
Marant moves up to the red line

1380
01:21:22,060 --> 01:21:23,100
and then puts it in,

1381
01:21:23,100 --> 01:21:25,220
it's to the left side of the goalcenter,

1382
01:21:25,220 --> 01:21:26,060
Billy Smith,

1383
01:21:26,060 --> 01:21:26,900
wound around the board,

1384
01:21:26,900 --> 01:21:28,020
Poulos able to cut it off,

1385
01:21:28,020 --> 01:21:29,620
he's checked in the corner by Kachuk,

1386
01:21:29,620 --> 01:21:30,980
Poulos tries to get out to the board,

1387
01:21:30,980 --> 01:21:31,900
knocked away,

1388
01:21:31,900 --> 01:21:33,220
and it ends up at center,

1389
01:21:33,220 --> 01:21:34,500
born and Kachuk come together,

1390
01:21:34,500 --> 01:21:35,340
Bob Bourne,

1391
01:21:35,340 --> 01:21:36,180
Bourne takes it away,

1392
01:21:36,180 --> 01:21:37,020
Bourne loose on a thick check,

1393
01:21:37,020 --> 01:21:37,860
Fabron,

1394
01:21:37,860 --> 01:21:38,700
Fabron to the far corner,

1395
01:21:38,700 --> 01:21:41,140
Fabron is hit by Hart in the corner,

1396
01:21:41,140 --> 01:21:42,580
Fabron looks to get it out to the corner,

1397
01:21:42,580 --> 01:21:43,660
it goes to Greshner,

1398
01:21:43,660 --> 01:21:44,500
Greshner back to Fabron,

1399
01:21:44,500 --> 01:21:46,500
and the full game is started by Hart,

1400
01:21:46,500 --> 01:21:47,620
back pass Greshner,

1401
01:21:47,620 --> 01:21:48,460
a late for Kachuk,

1402
01:21:48,460 --> 01:21:49,300
between his legs,

1403
01:21:49,300 --> 01:21:50,540
Fabron comes away with it,

1404
01:21:50,540 --> 01:21:51,660
makes his move on Hart,

1405
01:21:51,660 --> 01:21:52,660
throws it across the panel,

1406
01:21:52,660 --> 01:21:53,500
keeps the weight,

1407
01:21:53,500 --> 01:21:54,340
Fabron is there,

1408
01:21:54,340 --> 01:21:55,820
Fabron is spun around by Hart,

1409
01:21:55,820 --> 01:21:57,300
Fabron is held,

1410
01:21:57,300 --> 01:21:58,620
and a penalty upcoming,

1411
01:21:59,740 --> 01:22:02,860
penalty upcoming against the New York Outers,

1412
01:22:02,860 --> 01:22:05,140
Jerry Hart is headed off for two minutes,

1413
01:22:05,140 --> 01:22:07,540
you know most men's hairsprays look fine,

1414
01:22:07,540 --> 01:22:08,900
but how do they feel?

1415
01:22:08,900 --> 01:22:10,860
Well, you'll find that most of them

1416
01:22:10,860 --> 01:22:13,820
make your hair feel wet when you spray them on,

1417
01:22:13,820 --> 01:22:16,500
but Vitalis Dry 3 is different,

1418
01:22:16,500 --> 01:22:19,780
it's the only leading hairspray that goes on almost dry,

1419
01:22:19,780 --> 01:22:21,220
and when they do dry,

1420
01:22:21,220 --> 01:22:24,220
most hairsprays make your hair feel stiff,

1421
01:22:24,220 --> 01:22:26,220
but with Vitalis Dry 3,

1422
01:22:26,220 --> 01:22:27,900
your hair feels softer,

1423
01:22:27,900 --> 01:22:29,380
not nearly as stiff,

1424
01:22:29,380 --> 01:22:31,060
Vitalis Dry 3,

1425
01:22:31,060 --> 01:22:34,780
it's the hairspray that feels as good as it looks,

1426
01:22:34,780 --> 01:22:37,500
it is a hold on Hart at 11.32,

1427
01:22:37,500 --> 01:22:40,820
and the Rangers of 12.2 nothing now have the man advantage,

1428
01:22:40,820 --> 01:22:42,300
and the face off coming up,

1429
01:22:42,300 --> 01:22:44,420
left side of the out of their goal,

1430
01:22:44,420 --> 01:22:46,460
Rachel Bickles and Mabon up front,

1431
01:22:46,460 --> 01:22:49,300
Gilbert and Park are at the point.

1432
01:22:49,300 --> 01:22:53,180
Billy Fabron with some great persistence in that,

1433
01:22:53,180 --> 01:22:55,580
right boards all the way back up and down,

1434
01:22:55,580 --> 01:22:56,460
giving it to Greshner,

1435
01:22:56,460 --> 01:22:57,620
taking it back himself,

1436
01:22:57,620 --> 01:22:59,780
and no wonder Hart had a full of penalties.

1437
01:22:59,780 --> 01:23:01,020
On the face comes in front,

1438
01:23:01,020 --> 01:23:02,060
Smith looks to clear out,

1439
01:23:02,060 --> 01:23:03,140
come off, Park keeps in,

1440
01:23:03,140 --> 01:23:04,900
dumps it back behind the out of the net,

1441
01:23:04,900 --> 01:23:06,180
Lewis rolls it around the board,

1442
01:23:06,180 --> 01:23:07,900
Gilbert flags it down off the right board,

1443
01:23:07,900 --> 01:23:09,500
he's countered by Whiskball,

1444
01:23:09,500 --> 01:23:11,100
Park is sent to the far boards,

1445
01:23:11,100 --> 01:23:13,180
Ratel takes, he goes cross-sides,

1446
01:23:13,180 --> 01:23:14,180
back pass for Park,

1447
01:23:14,180 --> 01:23:15,020
goes into the shot,

1448
01:23:15,020 --> 01:23:15,860
that is blocked,

1449
01:23:15,860 --> 01:23:18,060
a sliding block and a great one by Headey,

1450
01:23:18,060 --> 01:23:19,500
and it comes all the way down.

1451
01:23:19,500 --> 01:23:20,460
Nice.

1452
01:23:20,460 --> 01:23:22,900
Villamur out to stop and he leaves the park,

1453
01:23:22,900 --> 01:23:25,020
the minute minute of him remaining on the Hart penalty,

1454
01:23:25,020 --> 01:23:26,420
Rangers trail, 2-0,

1455
01:23:26,420 --> 01:23:27,620
Ratel to center,

1456
01:23:27,620 --> 01:23:28,940
Ratel leaves Fabron,

1457
01:23:28,940 --> 01:23:29,780
knocked away,

1458
01:23:29,780 --> 01:23:30,620
Ratel recovers,

1459
01:23:30,620 --> 01:23:31,620
sends to Fabron of the corner,

1460
01:23:31,620 --> 01:23:32,700
in front for Vickers,

1461
01:23:32,700 --> 01:23:34,180
knocked aside by the defense,

1462
01:23:34,180 --> 01:23:35,300
kept in though by Park,

1463
01:23:35,300 --> 01:23:37,140
right point feed for Gilbert,

1464
01:23:37,140 --> 01:23:37,980
throws it ahead,

1465
01:23:37,980 --> 01:23:39,580
broken up again by Whiskball,

1466
01:23:39,580 --> 01:23:41,300
and it clears all the way down,

1467
01:23:41,300 --> 01:23:43,020
left side of Villamur,

1468
01:23:43,020 --> 01:23:44,700
back board is Park,

1469
01:23:44,700 --> 01:23:45,700
a minute 10 remaining,

1470
01:23:45,700 --> 01:23:46,540
there you are,

1471
01:23:46,540 --> 01:23:47,460
that out of the penalty,

1472
01:23:47,460 --> 01:23:48,620
as Park starts up,

1473
01:23:48,620 --> 01:23:49,860
Rangers go right to left,

1474
01:23:49,860 --> 01:23:51,500
the feed for Ratel at center,

1475
01:23:51,500 --> 01:23:52,340
he shoots ahead,

1476
01:23:52,340 --> 01:23:53,180
now for Butler,

1477
01:23:53,180 --> 01:23:54,020
it's off his gate,

1478
01:23:54,020 --> 01:23:54,860
Smith comes out,

1479
01:23:54,860 --> 01:23:55,700
looks to clear,

1480
01:23:55,700 --> 01:23:56,620
cannot, kept in by Park,

1481
01:23:56,620 --> 01:23:57,460
he shoots,

1482
01:23:57,460 --> 01:23:58,300
hit goes wide,

1483
01:23:58,300 --> 01:23:59,140
out of the flexion,

1484
01:23:59,140 --> 01:24:00,380
Park with the rebound of the corner,

1485
01:24:00,380 --> 01:24:01,300
Park spinning,

1486
01:24:01,300 --> 01:24:02,140
looks to set up,

1487
01:24:02,140 --> 01:24:03,620
Vickers goes back to the point now,

1488
01:24:03,620 --> 01:24:04,460
Park goes into the right,

1489
01:24:04,460 --> 01:24:05,660
put down a joke there,

1490
01:24:05,660 --> 01:24:07,260
swings it on the left point for Vickers,

1491
01:24:07,260 --> 01:24:08,540
he shoots, hit a clock,

1492
01:24:08,540 --> 01:24:09,580
hits Wilson,

1493
01:24:09,580 --> 01:24:10,820
Smith can't find it,

1494
01:24:10,820 --> 01:24:11,660
Butler does,

1495
01:24:11,660 --> 01:24:13,700
and Dave Lewis goes right at you,

1496
01:24:13,700 --> 01:24:15,300
and Vickers starts pounding away,

1497
01:24:15,300 --> 01:24:17,020
Butler ends up in the course,

1498
01:24:17,020 --> 01:24:18,780
and is really crunching up,

1499
01:24:18,780 --> 01:24:21,220
Butler ending up on top of Dave Lewis,

1500
01:24:21,220 --> 01:24:22,900
landing some lifts and rights,

1501
01:24:22,900 --> 01:24:25,220
with Lewis completely out of position,

1502
01:24:25,220 --> 01:24:26,900
that puck was loose,

1503
01:24:26,900 --> 01:24:28,140
near the skates of the goal,

1504
01:24:28,140 --> 01:24:29,060
kind of Billy Smith,

1505
01:24:29,060 --> 01:24:30,020
meanwhile Brad Park,

1506
01:24:30,020 --> 01:24:31,620
here the way for Marko,

1507
01:24:31,620 --> 01:24:33,500
just to keep him aside,

1508
01:24:33,500 --> 01:24:35,260
and with that loose park,

1509
01:24:35,260 --> 01:24:37,620
Butler in on the play,

1510
01:24:37,620 --> 01:24:39,020
was not stopped by Lewis,

1511
01:24:39,020 --> 01:24:40,940
it was actually put.

1512
01:24:40,940 --> 01:24:42,180
Lewis just kept punching it,

1513
01:24:42,180 --> 01:24:44,380
Butler was down on his knees,

1514
01:24:44,380 --> 01:24:46,180
and then Butler somehow got up,

1515
01:24:46,180 --> 01:24:47,300
mom I don't know how he did it,

1516
01:24:47,300 --> 01:24:49,100
with Lewis just flailing away,

1517
01:24:49,100 --> 01:24:50,740
the shot by Park,

1518
01:24:50,740 --> 01:24:52,180
put somebody in front of the net,

1519
01:24:52,180 --> 01:24:54,740
and dropped at Billy Smith's feet,

1520
01:24:54,740 --> 01:24:56,060
and he was looking straight ahead,

1521
01:24:56,060 --> 01:24:57,820
didn't even know the puck was at his feet,

1522
01:24:57,820 --> 01:25:00,380
the Rangers were unable to put the puck in the net.

1523
01:25:01,700 --> 01:25:05,140
Jerry Butler's entrance onto this line,

1524
01:25:05,140 --> 01:25:06,900
really sparked them,

1525
01:25:06,900 --> 01:25:10,340
for the 20, 30 seconds that he was set on the ice,

1526
01:25:10,340 --> 01:25:12,620
and off Butler is set on that line,

1527
01:25:12,620 --> 01:25:14,180
with Lewis.

1528
01:25:14,180 --> 01:25:16,180
Billy Fairburn had started on the line,

1529
01:25:16,180 --> 01:25:17,420
on the power play,

1530
01:25:17,420 --> 01:25:19,300
however he was on the ice,

1531
01:25:19,300 --> 01:25:21,340
when the Rangers, Jerry Hart drew the penalty,

1532
01:25:21,340 --> 01:25:22,860
and right before he drew the penalty,

1533
01:25:22,860 --> 01:25:23,700
as we mentioned,

1534
01:25:23,700 --> 01:25:25,580
Fairburn was digging up and down the board,

1535
01:25:25,580 --> 01:25:27,820
for about 30 seconds without stopping,

1536
01:25:27,820 --> 01:25:29,860
and I'm sure he was replaced by Butler,

1537
01:25:29,860 --> 01:25:31,300
because he was tired,

1538
01:25:31,300 --> 01:25:33,260
Butler using his power to break through,

1539
01:25:33,260 --> 01:25:34,260
on one opportunity,

1540
01:25:34,260 --> 01:25:35,780
and almost checked Smith on the play,

1541
01:25:35,780 --> 01:25:37,700
Smith was able to poke the puck out,

1542
01:25:37,700 --> 01:25:39,220
and Park stopped it,

1543
01:25:39,220 --> 01:25:41,740
just as it was on the blue line,

1544
01:25:41,740 --> 01:25:44,540
and took that shot that just lay at Billy Smith's feet.

1545
01:25:46,580 --> 01:25:49,140
We have 48 seconds remaining,

1546
01:25:50,100 --> 01:25:51,940
on the Jerry Hart penalty,

1547
01:25:51,940 --> 01:25:54,220
and now, referee Bruce Hood,

1548
01:25:55,860 --> 01:25:56,940
has handled out,

1549
01:26:00,620 --> 01:26:01,460
let's see,

1550
01:26:01,460 --> 01:26:02,460
five minutes apiece,

1551
01:26:02,460 --> 01:26:04,980
for fighting on both,

1552
01:26:04,980 --> 01:26:06,340
and tributaries of peace,

1553
01:26:06,340 --> 01:26:09,420
for roughing to both Butler and Lewis,

1554
01:26:09,420 --> 01:26:10,260
at 12.44.

1555
01:26:12,060 --> 01:26:14,260
So both of these players will be off seven minutes,

1556
01:26:14,260 --> 01:26:16,580
and will not affect,

1557
01:26:16,580 --> 01:26:18,260
player personnel out on the ice,

1558
01:26:18,260 --> 01:26:19,180
the Rangers right now,

1559
01:26:19,180 --> 01:26:21,340
will have a four on three advantage,

1560
01:26:21,340 --> 01:26:22,620
for 48 seconds,

1561
01:26:22,620 --> 01:26:25,740
and then as Hart's penalty expires,

1562
01:26:25,740 --> 01:26:28,180
teams will be playing at full strength at five apiece,

1563
01:26:28,180 --> 01:26:29,340
and those seven minutes,

1564
01:26:29,340 --> 01:26:31,300
those players will not be allowed out on the ice,

1565
01:26:31,300 --> 01:26:32,700
for the next seven minutes.

1566
01:26:33,660 --> 01:26:35,100
Mays off, coming up,

1567
01:26:35,100 --> 01:26:36,700
to the left side,

1568
01:26:36,700 --> 01:26:38,020
of the island of that,

1569
01:26:38,020 --> 01:26:38,860
with Terrell,

1570
01:26:38,860 --> 01:26:39,700
looks to get it out,

1571
01:26:39,700 --> 01:26:41,100
but a finish up by Heading,

1572
01:26:41,100 --> 01:26:41,940
Heading to center,

1573
01:26:41,940 --> 01:26:42,780
two on one,

1574
01:26:42,780 --> 01:26:43,620
Pondford left,

1575
01:26:43,620 --> 01:26:44,460
we pop it across the ranger,

1576
01:26:44,460 --> 01:26:45,280
down to the drive,

1577
01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:46,120
score!

1578
01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:50,620
It is a shorthanded goal,

1579
01:26:50,620 --> 01:26:52,140
for Dennis Pondford,

1580
01:26:52,140 --> 01:26:53,900
of the New York Islanders,

1581
01:26:53,900 --> 01:26:55,540
and they now leave the Rangers,

1582
01:26:55,540 --> 01:26:56,780
for the score,

1583
01:26:56,780 --> 01:26:58,260
of three nothing.

1584
01:26:58,260 --> 01:26:59,340
Dennis Pondford,

1585
01:26:59,340 --> 01:27:00,340
taking his time,

1586
01:27:00,340 --> 01:27:02,660
setting up to bat the long man back,

1587
01:27:02,660 --> 01:27:04,540
put it through Villamire's leg,

1588
01:27:04,540 --> 01:27:07,420
and the Islanders doing what the Rangers did last night,

1589
01:27:07,420 --> 01:27:09,700
the Rangers did it all in the first period,

1590
01:27:09,700 --> 01:27:10,540
two goals,

1591
01:27:10,540 --> 01:27:11,900
they're gonna hit two nothing,

1592
01:27:11,900 --> 01:27:13,340
and then score a shorthanded goal,

1593
01:27:13,340 --> 01:27:15,020
they're gonna have three two,

1594
01:27:15,020 --> 01:27:15,840
I made a mistake,

1595
01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:17,620
I'm on a five on four situation,

1596
01:27:17,620 --> 01:27:19,620
not a four on three.

1597
01:27:19,620 --> 01:27:21,740
With those penalties on Butler,

1598
01:27:22,620 --> 01:27:23,460
and Lewis,

1599
01:27:23,460 --> 01:27:26,060
only affecting Butler and Lewis,

1600
01:27:26,060 --> 01:27:28,980
so they'll both be gone for seven minutes straight.

1601
01:27:28,980 --> 01:27:30,220
On the faceoff at center,

1602
01:27:30,220 --> 01:27:32,540
Rangers still have the man in bed at Joe Bergen,

1603
01:27:32,540 --> 01:27:34,980
and he's up across the out of the line,

1604
01:27:34,980 --> 01:27:36,660
he over skates at the far side,

1605
01:27:36,660 --> 01:27:38,300
Westball takes it away,

1606
01:27:38,300 --> 01:27:40,580
and Westball shoots it all the way down,

1607
01:27:40,580 --> 01:27:42,180
Mark is back forward now,

1608
01:27:42,180 --> 01:27:43,500
rushed by heading,

1609
01:27:43,500 --> 01:27:45,340
Mark circles in his own end,

1610
01:27:45,340 --> 01:27:47,100
ahead it goes to Middleton,

1611
01:27:47,100 --> 01:27:48,740
and Irvin cuts back the other way,

1612
01:27:48,740 --> 01:27:49,980
sends to Irvin,

1613
01:27:49,980 --> 01:27:51,260
Irvin leads for Tell,

1614
01:27:51,260 --> 01:27:53,300
Retell is up to the out of the line,

1615
01:27:53,300 --> 01:27:54,140
looks to split the line,

1616
01:27:54,140 --> 01:27:56,500
and Marshall Stick checks it away,

1617
01:27:56,500 --> 01:27:58,100
Marshall looks to wind it around,

1618
01:27:58,100 --> 01:27:59,340
it's locked aside,

1619
01:27:59,340 --> 01:28:00,180
Irvin with Irvin,

1620
01:28:00,180 --> 01:28:02,620
he loses on a poke check to Dennis Putman,

1621
01:28:02,620 --> 01:28:04,340
and Putman clears it all the way down,

1622
01:28:04,340 --> 01:28:07,260
Dennis Putman has really taken over this game,

1623
01:28:07,260 --> 01:28:08,380
a goal by Putman,

1624
01:28:08,380 --> 01:28:10,420
shorthanded from heading at 12.51,

1625
01:28:10,420 --> 01:28:11,940
he's stood the last two,

1626
01:28:11,940 --> 01:28:12,860
and the out of the line is down,

1627
01:28:12,860 --> 01:28:13,940
it's three to nothing,

1628
01:28:13,940 --> 01:28:16,260
and the Rangers are a rattled hockey club right now,

1629
01:28:16,260 --> 01:28:17,340
Irvin to center,

1630
01:28:17,340 --> 01:28:19,420
that penalty on Hart has expired,

1631
01:28:19,420 --> 01:28:21,100
a pass has been for Stumkowski,

1632
01:28:21,100 --> 01:28:21,940
then a return,

1633
01:28:21,940 --> 01:28:22,780
Irvin to the end of the game,

1634
01:28:22,780 --> 01:28:23,620
and he's lost,

1635
01:28:23,620 --> 01:28:25,500
leads a three on one now to the drive,

1636
01:28:25,500 --> 01:28:28,700
the save may be made for Villamur,

1637
01:28:28,700 --> 01:28:31,460
but his loose attack has parked on Southerland,

1638
01:28:31,460 --> 01:28:34,020
Joe Villamur is a rattled goaltender,

1639
01:28:34,020 --> 01:28:35,580
he has not been shot,

1640
01:28:35,580 --> 01:28:37,700
now the puck sent to the far left,

1641
01:28:37,700 --> 01:28:39,140
the play before St. Louis,

1642
01:28:39,140 --> 01:28:40,860
and Park combined to phrase it,

1643
01:28:40,860 --> 01:28:41,700
play his goal.

1644
01:28:41,700 --> 01:28:43,060
And he's acting as though he's injured,

1645
01:28:43,060 --> 01:28:44,900
he did hurt his right knee,

1646
01:28:44,900 --> 01:28:46,260
he got shaken up on that one,

1647
01:28:46,260 --> 01:28:47,340
making the first save,

1648
01:28:47,340 --> 01:28:49,060
unable to control the rebound,

1649
01:28:49,060 --> 01:28:51,660
Pickle, Kenny, Jackman over the board,

1650
01:28:51,660 --> 01:28:53,180
he is going in to play goal

1651
01:28:53,180 --> 01:28:54,660
for the remainder of the hockey game,

1652
01:28:54,660 --> 01:28:56,060
Villamur, as I mentioned,

1653
01:28:56,060 --> 01:28:57,300
hurt his knee last night,

1654
01:28:57,300 --> 01:28:58,580
on his last collision,

1655
01:28:58,580 --> 01:28:59,780
not quiet to it,

1656
01:28:59,780 --> 01:29:01,540
on the last collision,

1657
01:29:01,540 --> 01:29:03,540
Villamur got up very slowly,

1658
01:29:03,540 --> 01:29:05,140
and here comes Villamur to the bench,

1659
01:29:05,140 --> 01:29:06,540
Jackman going into the net.

1660
01:29:08,020 --> 01:29:10,500
That's Eddie, Eddie,

1661
01:29:10,500 --> 01:29:12,220
from the third round,

1662
01:29:12,220 --> 01:29:14,140
Rankin's on the long way to come

1663
01:29:14,140 --> 01:29:15,700
to get back in the soccer game,

1664
01:29:15,700 --> 01:29:17,660
and that's the Jackman,

1665
01:29:17,660 --> 01:29:19,060
jumped off the boards here,

1666
01:29:19,060 --> 01:29:20,820
a South URF,

1667
01:29:20,820 --> 01:29:23,020
as he passed the Rankin's on the bench,

1668
01:29:23,020 --> 01:29:25,020
he was screaming at them,

1669
01:29:25,020 --> 01:29:28,500
and from what I could pick up on the repeat,

1670
01:29:28,500 --> 01:29:30,700
it was not over.

1671
01:29:30,700 --> 01:29:31,460
That's right, Bob,

1672
01:29:31,460 --> 01:29:33,820
it is a three-goal lead, of course,

1673
01:29:33,820 --> 01:29:35,460
pretty tough to come back from,

1674
01:29:35,460 --> 01:29:36,540
but a playoff game,

1675
01:29:36,540 --> 01:29:37,380
you get one goal,

1676
01:29:37,380 --> 01:29:39,300
and the other team starts thinking,

1677
01:29:39,300 --> 01:29:41,700
three goals is not a big lead,

1678
01:29:41,700 --> 01:29:43,660
in a Stanley Cup playoff game,

1679
01:29:43,660 --> 01:29:45,180
although sometimes they stay checking

1680
01:29:45,180 --> 01:29:47,300
in Stanley Cup, not so.

1681
01:29:47,300 --> 01:29:50,260
Well, the Rangers have to break the stand open,

1682
01:29:50,260 --> 01:29:51,660
they have to play right off and right,

1683
01:29:51,660 --> 01:29:53,540
they're trailing three-nothing on the face,

1684
01:29:53,540 --> 01:29:55,300
Kinkowski rolls it down,

1685
01:29:55,300 --> 01:29:58,140
it's that left side of the ground on the net,

1686
01:29:58,140 --> 01:29:59,500
penalty upcoming now,

1687
01:29:59,500 --> 01:30:03,620
the Rangers are battling for the puck at the far side,

1688
01:30:03,620 --> 01:30:06,860
and Ron Harris is gonna be called for a slap.

1689
01:30:06,860 --> 01:30:08,820
Harris lost his temper,

1690
01:30:08,820 --> 01:30:11,460
could not get to that lead pass from Kinkowski,

1691
01:30:11,460 --> 01:30:12,860
and I saw him string his stick,

1692
01:30:12,860 --> 01:30:14,460
and he's gonna, for two minutes,

1693
01:30:14,460 --> 01:30:17,660
flip-break right here for station identification.

1694
01:30:17,660 --> 01:30:20,260
Hi folks, I'm Gene Claven on WNEW,

1695
01:30:20,260 --> 01:30:21,340
and you're hearing this game,

1696
01:30:21,340 --> 01:30:23,620
I'm on every morning from 5.30 to 10.

1697
01:30:23,620 --> 01:30:25,860
Now I'll tell you what's wrong with the game today.

1698
01:30:25,860 --> 01:30:29,780
There's a, Gene is always so helpful.

1699
01:30:31,780 --> 01:30:33,300
And I think a lot of people can suggest

1700
01:30:33,300 --> 01:30:34,500
what is wrong with the game today

1701
01:30:34,500 --> 01:30:35,900
from the Razor front of you.

1702
01:30:35,900 --> 01:30:38,820
Ron Harris off, slashing at 14-20,

1703
01:30:38,820 --> 01:30:40,700
Rangers are down three-nothing,

1704
01:30:40,700 --> 01:30:43,580
and they filled even a bigger hole right here,

1705
01:30:43,580 --> 01:30:45,260
because the out of those,

1706
01:30:45,260 --> 01:30:46,740
well they're half the man advantage,

1707
01:30:46,740 --> 01:30:50,060
face off coming up outside the Islander blue line.

1708
01:30:50,060 --> 01:30:51,940
A lot of pressure right now on Eddie Johnston,

1709
01:30:51,940 --> 01:30:54,020
and another goal here could really

1710
01:30:54,020 --> 01:30:55,660
break it open for the Islander.

1711
01:30:55,660 --> 01:30:57,660
He hasn't had a shot on goal yet,

1712
01:30:57,660 --> 01:30:59,460
and he has to face the power play.

1713
01:31:00,420 --> 01:31:04,460
Kachuk and Faber up front, Marat and Park are back.

1714
01:31:04,460 --> 01:31:06,660
On the face-off, picked up by Billy Harris,

1715
01:31:06,660 --> 01:31:08,180
loses out of poke check to pass,

1716
01:31:08,180 --> 01:31:10,740
ahead for Faber and Faber and out of Kachuk.

1717
01:31:10,740 --> 01:31:12,420
Kachuk to the out of the blue line,

1718
01:31:12,420 --> 01:31:15,260
Kachuk swinging in, looks the split through,

1719
01:31:15,260 --> 01:31:17,620
loses on a stick check, then his puntman takes it away.

1720
01:31:17,620 --> 01:31:19,620
He's to center, he's to the Ranger line.

1721
01:31:19,620 --> 01:31:21,700
Back past the born, a drive goes wide.

1722
01:31:21,700 --> 01:31:24,500
On the rebound, a picked off by Harris at the near boards.

1723
01:31:24,500 --> 01:31:27,340
Headbakes, cuts to the corner, he's checked by Marat.

1724
01:31:27,340 --> 01:31:28,940
He's hit against the born by Marat,

1725
01:31:28,940 --> 01:31:31,340
but he's able to get it up to John Farnham at the right part.

1726
01:31:31,340 --> 01:31:33,300
Hustles his way along the boards against Kachuk,

1727
01:31:33,300 --> 01:31:36,180
Marat comes away and is able to work it free

1728
01:31:36,180 --> 01:31:37,260
and shoot it all the way down.

1729
01:31:37,260 --> 01:31:41,180
A minute 20 remaining on that Ranger penalty to Rob Harris.

1730
01:31:41,180 --> 01:31:43,540
Back behind the net, picked up by born,

1731
01:31:43,540 --> 01:31:46,300
time starts up, the Islanders have the man advantage.

1732
01:31:46,300 --> 01:31:48,260
A lead on the right, Pat Mendes is John

1733
01:31:48,260 --> 01:31:50,300
popping up to center down the center slot.

1734
01:31:50,300 --> 01:31:51,780
Back to born at the Ranger line,

1735
01:31:51,780 --> 01:31:53,740
he flicks in right side of Chalkamon,

1736
01:31:53,740 --> 01:31:55,380
and he bangs it off the board.

1737
01:31:55,380 --> 01:31:57,340
Picked off by punt at the far side,

1738
01:31:57,340 --> 01:31:58,660
he's chopped up by Gillies,

1739
01:31:58,660 --> 01:32:00,660
loses on the stick check, the born,

1740
01:32:00,660 --> 01:32:02,620
throws it in, Gillies into the suit.

1741
01:32:02,620 --> 01:32:04,900
Along with Marat, Gillies gets to it out to the point,

1742
01:32:04,900 --> 01:32:06,580
John Pumphin sends it at the middle,

1743
01:32:06,580 --> 01:32:08,780
Harris has bumped him behind on the run,

1744
01:32:08,780 --> 01:32:12,020
and Faber takes the nose puck and guns it all the way down.

1745
01:32:12,020 --> 01:32:14,500
50 seconds remaining on the Ranger penalty,

1746
01:32:14,500 --> 01:32:17,860
Sanderson steps on there, the Rangers change off the fly.

1747
01:32:17,860 --> 01:32:20,100
Dennis Poppin after it, back behind his net,

1748
01:32:20,100 --> 01:32:22,620
checked by Sanderson, winds it around now for Howard,

1749
01:32:22,620 --> 01:32:24,060
skating at center on the left wing,

1750
01:32:24,060 --> 01:32:25,380
goes into the same move on it.

1751
01:32:25,380 --> 01:32:27,700
Poppin into the left wing, the middle drive,

1752
01:32:27,700 --> 01:32:30,300
sends it in front, Nicebroom did not get the shot off,

1753
01:32:30,300 --> 01:32:31,740
he was checked from behind,

1754
01:32:31,740 --> 01:32:33,060
puck is rolled around the board,

1755
01:32:33,060 --> 01:32:34,820
kept in by Saint-Laurent, his pass,

1756
01:32:34,820 --> 01:32:36,300
intercepted by Greshner.

1757
01:32:36,300 --> 01:32:38,780
Now Greshner cuts to his left, looks to kill McClark,

1758
01:32:38,780 --> 01:32:40,700
25 seconds on the Ranger penalty,

1759
01:32:40,700 --> 01:32:42,300
now Greshner comes spinning out of his zone

1760
01:32:42,300 --> 01:32:43,820
around Saint-Laurent at center,

1761
01:32:43,820 --> 01:32:46,020
muscles away, it's past the out of the blue line,

1762
01:32:46,020 --> 01:32:48,340
cuts to the far side, a cut to the center of the net,

1763
01:32:48,340 --> 01:32:50,860
pass to center, but he's turned around back behind

1764
01:32:50,860 --> 01:32:53,460
but that Faber and Rietrieves moves to the corner

1765
01:32:53,460 --> 01:32:55,940
in honor of the ice, he is checked on the play,

1766
01:32:55,940 --> 01:32:58,060
puck is loose, work free now by Nicebroom,

1767
01:32:58,060 --> 01:32:59,820
Nicebroom to center, Paul Deonaldis,

1768
01:32:59,820 --> 01:33:01,500
Nicebroom up for the Ranger line,

1769
01:33:01,500 --> 01:33:02,940
Nicebroom breaks for the near corner,

1770
01:33:02,940 --> 01:33:05,100
back past Poppin, John Poppin with a shot,

1771
01:33:05,100 --> 01:33:06,420
and it's blocked by Greshner,

1772
01:33:06,420 --> 01:33:08,500
kicks it out to center, skips by Stupkowski,

1773
01:33:08,500 --> 01:33:11,220
there's all the way down, as Brown Harris returns,

1774
01:33:11,220 --> 01:33:12,820
Burt Marshall up with it, Paul Deonaldis,

1775
01:33:12,820 --> 01:33:15,380
Steven Ozonat springs it around the boards now for Howard,

1776
01:33:15,380 --> 01:33:16,620
hit it goes to Saint-Laurent,

1777
01:33:16,620 --> 01:33:17,900
that's by the bridge, Brown Harris,

1778
01:33:17,900 --> 01:33:18,940
Bumper on the play,

1779
01:33:18,940 --> 01:33:20,700
no one comes over to pick up the loose puck,

1780
01:33:20,700 --> 01:33:21,940
he's checked by Marat,

1781
01:33:21,940 --> 01:33:23,540
puck picked up now by Stupkowski,

1782
01:33:23,540 --> 01:33:24,740
Marat goes to the ice,

1783
01:33:24,740 --> 01:33:26,500
and Stupkowski moves to center,

1784
01:33:26,500 --> 01:33:28,300
Stummer is up across the out of the line,

1785
01:33:28,300 --> 01:33:29,740
Stummer cuts in, here's the shot,

1786
01:33:29,740 --> 01:33:31,580
it is blocked by John Poppin,

1787
01:33:31,580 --> 01:33:32,980
and the out of the break up by,

1788
01:33:32,980 --> 01:33:35,060
led by Poppin, he's up to the Ranger line,

1789
01:33:35,060 --> 01:33:36,100
breaks wide on Marat,

1790
01:33:36,100 --> 01:33:37,860
now a back pass for Nicebroom,

1791
01:33:37,860 --> 01:33:39,180
Stumper falls short,

1792
01:33:39,180 --> 01:33:40,780
stick to side by Chalkin,

1793
01:33:40,780 --> 01:33:42,140
out in front for Drew and Nuck the way,

1794
01:33:42,140 --> 01:33:43,340
comes to the point now to Marshall,

1795
01:33:43,340 --> 01:33:46,300
his drive is a beautiful kick save on the rebound,

1796
01:33:46,300 --> 01:33:47,820
Howard gets it on to the right point,

1797
01:33:47,820 --> 01:33:49,940
to John Poppin, a cross-side fade,

1798
01:33:49,940 --> 01:33:52,300
taken by Ratel with no islander in sight,

1799
01:33:52,300 --> 01:33:53,740
and Ratel moves to center,

1800
01:33:53,740 --> 01:33:55,540
Ratel stick handles that on the out of the line,

1801
01:33:55,540 --> 01:33:56,820
a bump for Stupkowski,

1802
01:33:56,820 --> 01:33:58,100
back pass for Irvin,

1803
01:33:58,100 --> 01:33:59,140
slapped to side,

1804
01:33:59,140 --> 01:34:00,740
kept alive by Riano,

1805
01:34:00,740 --> 01:34:02,580
this Nicebroom shoots it out to center,

1806
01:34:02,580 --> 01:34:04,140
nice jump after his own pass,

1807
01:34:04,140 --> 01:34:05,660
most pass question of the corner,

1808
01:34:05,660 --> 01:34:06,860
tries to flick it in front,

1809
01:34:06,860 --> 01:34:07,780
now he does for Howard,

1810
01:34:07,780 --> 01:34:09,300
he shoots, same thing by Chalkin,

1811
01:34:09,300 --> 01:34:10,580
but it looks very sharp,

1812
01:34:10,580 --> 01:34:12,380
Stupkowski ahead now for Ratel,

1813
01:34:12,380 --> 01:34:13,660
Ratel is up to center,

1814
01:34:13,660 --> 01:34:15,620
Leib-Berberly makes his first touch now,

1815
01:34:15,620 --> 01:34:17,060
a pass for Irvin on the left wing,

1816
01:34:17,060 --> 01:34:19,460
Pemberley is coming against the islander,

1817
01:34:19,460 --> 01:34:20,300
wait a second,

1818
01:34:20,300 --> 01:34:22,900
Chalkin and Howard go out at each other,

1819
01:34:22,900 --> 01:34:25,380
and they get entangled,

1820
01:34:25,380 --> 01:34:27,900
Howard did not want to get it, no!

1821
01:34:27,900 --> 01:34:30,460
Merritt did not look to go back at Chalkin,

1822
01:34:30,460 --> 01:34:32,100
and I was not looking that way,

1823
01:34:32,100 --> 01:34:33,860
with play developing,

1824
01:34:33,860 --> 01:34:34,820
two on left,

1825
01:34:34,820 --> 01:34:36,580
and Chalkin and Howard

1826
01:34:36,580 --> 01:34:38,260
started to turn each other around,

1827
01:34:38,260 --> 01:34:39,660
Chalkin and Trotting

1828
01:34:39,660 --> 01:34:40,940
get off a punch on Howard,

1829
01:34:40,940 --> 01:34:43,260
and Howard was not looking

1830
01:34:43,260 --> 01:34:44,820
to get entangled at all.

1831
01:34:44,820 --> 01:34:47,460
I don't know who made first contact either,

1832
01:34:47,460 --> 01:34:49,780
we were watching the line rush up ice,

1833
01:34:49,780 --> 01:34:51,340
but from the indications,

1834
01:34:51,340 --> 01:34:52,900
Hood did not blow his whistle

1835
01:34:52,900 --> 01:34:55,100
when the islanders had possession of the puck,

1836
01:34:55,100 --> 01:34:56,260
the whistle was not blown

1837
01:34:56,260 --> 01:34:58,340
until the islanders went into the ranger zone,

1838
01:34:58,340 --> 01:34:59,740
where Howard and Chalkin were,

1839
01:34:59,740 --> 01:35:01,460
so there could not be an offside call,

1840
01:35:01,460 --> 01:35:03,380
I mean, there had to be an offside call

1841
01:35:03,380 --> 01:35:05,660
even though Chalkin had left the net,

1842
01:35:05,660 --> 01:35:07,060
so I don't know if Hood,

1843
01:35:08,100 --> 01:35:10,380
the crowd reacted very, very violently,

1844
01:35:10,380 --> 01:35:11,940
I don't know who made first contact,

1845
01:35:11,940 --> 01:35:14,180
we'll have to see from how Bruce Hood

1846
01:35:14,180 --> 01:35:16,500
took the bat in the penalty.

1847
01:35:18,100 --> 01:35:19,900
It was an unusual situation,

1848
01:35:19,900 --> 01:35:22,540
because Gary Howard

1849
01:35:23,580 --> 01:35:26,900
never want to keep away

1850
01:35:26,900 --> 01:35:28,900
from a fisticuff situation,

1851
01:35:30,100 --> 01:35:34,620
did not look to go back at any Chalkin,

1852
01:35:34,620 --> 01:35:36,500
Chalkin had his mask on,

1853
01:35:36,500 --> 01:35:38,020
you punch a guy with that mask on,

1854
01:35:38,020 --> 01:35:39,700
and that hand's gonna hurt.

1855
01:35:39,700 --> 01:35:41,140
I know Gary Howard is playing

1856
01:35:41,140 --> 01:35:43,340
with a full tendon in his left hand,

1857
01:35:43,340 --> 01:35:45,220
and prior to the Stanley Cup series,

1858
01:35:45,220 --> 01:35:47,620
he had his glove glued and taped on,

1859
01:35:47,620 --> 01:35:49,900
not one hand, and that could be one reason.

1860
01:35:49,900 --> 01:35:52,660
Peter Stemkowski coming off the ice,

1861
01:35:52,660 --> 01:35:55,980
he could have been hit with a third bat in penalty,

1862
01:35:55,980 --> 01:35:59,300
we don't know, we'll have to wait until Bruce Hood

1863
01:35:59,300 --> 01:36:00,980
makes the call on the play.

1864
01:36:02,380 --> 01:36:03,980
Well, 2.26,

1865
01:36:05,540 --> 01:36:06,740
the second period,

1866
01:36:06,740 --> 01:36:09,100
and suddenly things are breaking out,

1867
01:36:09,100 --> 01:36:12,820
what started out as a cautious style hockey game

1868
01:36:12,820 --> 01:36:14,220
has now erupted,

1869
01:36:14,220 --> 01:36:15,660
particularly with the Islanders

1870
01:36:15,660 --> 01:36:18,460
in part by the score of three nothing.

1871
01:36:18,460 --> 01:36:21,020
Right here, let's pause for this word.

1872
01:36:21,020 --> 01:36:22,740
We're the old one, too.

1873
01:36:23,780 --> 01:36:25,860
I get you in the head,

1874
01:36:25,860 --> 01:36:27,980
and I get you in the stomach.

1875
01:36:27,980 --> 01:36:29,580
So enjoy your party.

1876
01:36:29,580 --> 01:36:32,340
Eat, drink, dance until dawn,

1877
01:36:32,340 --> 01:36:33,940
so you can late for work.

1878
01:36:33,940 --> 01:36:35,540
We'll see you in the morning,

1879
01:36:35,540 --> 01:36:40,540
with the old one, too.

1880
01:36:40,540 --> 01:36:43,020
Alka-Seltzer, let's get out of here!

1881
01:36:43,020 --> 01:36:44,780
For aches and pains with upset stomach,

1882
01:36:44,780 --> 01:36:46,980
try Alka-Seltzer with specially buffered aspirin,

1883
01:36:46,980 --> 01:36:47,940
plots and acids,

1884
01:36:47,940 --> 01:36:49,220
who's only as directed.

1885
01:36:49,220 --> 01:36:50,620
It gives the old one, too,

1886
01:36:50,620 --> 01:36:51,620
pure one, too.

1887
01:36:56,140 --> 01:36:56,980
Here they,

1888
01:36:57,820 --> 01:36:59,300
here they come out,

1889
01:37:00,460 --> 01:37:02,740
Stemkowski, as you said, Sal,

1890
01:37:02,740 --> 01:37:03,980
is through,

1891
01:37:03,980 --> 01:37:05,220
through the evening.

1892
01:37:05,220 --> 01:37:08,260
Game misconduct for being third man in.

1893
01:37:08,260 --> 01:37:11,580
Gary Howitt, two minutes for ruffling.

1894
01:37:11,580 --> 01:37:13,820
And Ranger Goaltender, Ed Jockeman,

1895
01:37:13,820 --> 01:37:15,420
two minutes for ruffing,

1896
01:37:15,420 --> 01:37:17,380
two minutes for napshaki.

1897
01:37:17,380 --> 01:37:19,780
So apparently, that fight was precipitated

1898
01:37:19,780 --> 01:37:20,900
by Jockeman, at least.

1899
01:37:22,820 --> 01:37:24,220
That is where Bruce Hood picked it up,

1900
01:37:24,220 --> 01:37:26,460
because he was not looking in that direction,

1901
01:37:26,460 --> 01:37:28,100
like no one was with play developing

1902
01:37:28,100 --> 01:37:29,980
a huff ice in the Outer.

1903
01:37:29,980 --> 01:37:31,700
So in fact, if Bruce would have peered,

1904
01:37:31,700 --> 01:37:33,060
and the Outer's thought,

1905
01:37:33,060 --> 01:37:34,980
that there was a penalty upcoming,

1906
01:37:34,980 --> 01:37:35,820
against them,

1907
01:37:35,820 --> 01:37:38,500
because they did not see the Jockeman,

1908
01:37:38,500 --> 01:37:41,460
Howitt situation develop.

1909
01:37:41,460 --> 01:37:43,780
So the Rangers lose out on this one all around,

1910
01:37:43,780 --> 01:37:46,460
at 17-34, the top of the panel.

1911
01:37:46,460 --> 01:37:47,300
As you said, Mom,

1912
01:37:47,300 --> 01:37:48,540
when Jockeman came into the game,

1913
01:37:48,540 --> 01:37:49,740
he was yelling at his players,

1914
01:37:49,740 --> 01:37:51,020
as he skated past the bench.

1915
01:37:51,020 --> 01:37:52,900
He, of course, coming from the far end,

1916
01:37:52,900 --> 01:37:55,700
and had a skate right by the entire Ranger bench.

1917
01:37:55,700 --> 01:37:57,420
He made two beautiful saves,

1918
01:37:57,420 --> 01:37:58,860
one on a shot from the point,

1919
01:37:58,860 --> 01:38:00,140
and another with Bobby Nystrom,

1920
01:38:00,140 --> 01:38:02,500
in all alone on Jockeman.

1921
01:38:02,500 --> 01:38:03,740
And he last year,

1922
01:38:03,740 --> 01:38:05,700
sort of sparked the team against Montreal,

1923
01:38:05,700 --> 01:38:06,540
and Philadelphia,

1924
01:38:06,540 --> 01:38:08,060
even though they lost a series of,

1925
01:38:08,060 --> 01:38:09,300
in seven games,

1926
01:38:09,300 --> 01:38:10,140
through the Flyers,

1927
01:38:10,140 --> 01:38:11,380
down in Philadelphia.

1928
01:38:11,380 --> 01:38:14,500
And then he tried to light some sort of a fuse for them,

1929
01:38:14,500 --> 01:38:16,100
or some sort of a fire for the Rangers,

1930
01:38:16,100 --> 01:38:18,220
to spark them to come from behind in this.

1931
01:38:18,220 --> 01:38:20,220
Huff and a half, three nothing,

1932
01:38:20,220 --> 01:38:23,140
two more, 26 seconds left in the second period.

1933
01:38:23,140 --> 01:38:24,780
And now they have to kill off a penalty.

1934
01:38:24,780 --> 01:38:27,620
So, big opportunity right now,

1935
01:38:28,540 --> 01:38:31,060
for the Rangers, Roger Bear and Jean Ratel,

1936
01:38:31,060 --> 01:38:32,420
out on the ice.

1937
01:38:32,420 --> 01:38:34,380
The Islanders, right now,

1938
01:38:34,380 --> 01:38:36,180
they will not kill off the penalty right away.

1939
01:38:36,180 --> 01:38:38,300
That penalty will not start,

1940
01:38:38,300 --> 01:38:40,340
until there are 26 seconds left in this period.

1941
01:38:40,340 --> 01:38:41,380
They'll play four on four,

1942
01:38:41,380 --> 01:38:43,380
until the penalty to Howlett expires,

1943
01:38:43,380 --> 01:38:44,700
and Howlett can return to the ice.

1944
01:38:44,700 --> 01:38:46,260
The Islanders will be up a man.

1945
01:38:47,220 --> 01:38:50,100
Nick Febuey serving those Jockeman penalties.

1946
01:38:50,100 --> 01:38:51,460
Face off coming up now,

1947
01:38:51,460 --> 01:38:53,980
outside the Ranger, Lula,

1948
01:38:53,980 --> 01:38:56,500
on the face, Park controls.

1949
01:38:56,500 --> 01:38:58,540
Now Park flicks off to Harris.

1950
01:38:58,540 --> 01:39:00,100
Harris up to center.

1951
01:39:00,100 --> 01:39:01,500
Harris with return on the left,

1952
01:39:01,500 --> 01:39:03,060
across the Island alarm,

1953
01:39:03,060 --> 01:39:04,540
but a whistle forward and offside,

1954
01:39:04,540 --> 01:39:06,980
with Ratel in ahead of the play.

1955
01:39:06,980 --> 01:39:10,020
Right now, folks, tubs are down a man.

1956
01:39:11,220 --> 01:39:13,060
And when Howlett returns,

1957
01:39:13,060 --> 01:39:15,580
following his two minute penalty for roughing,

1958
01:39:15,580 --> 01:39:18,140
the Islanders will have the man advantage.

1959
01:39:18,140 --> 01:39:19,540
We have two 15 left,

1960
01:39:21,220 --> 01:39:22,060
in the second period,

1961
01:39:22,060 --> 01:39:24,100
and the Rangers trailing the Islanders,

1962
01:39:24,100 --> 01:39:26,940
three nothing, Gillies and Dennis Putman twice.

1963
01:39:26,940 --> 01:39:28,900
Putman's goals coming here on the second one,

1964
01:39:28,900 --> 01:39:30,580
on the power play, one short handed.

1965
01:39:30,580 --> 01:39:32,100
John Putman takes the face.

1966
01:39:32,100 --> 01:39:34,620
He cross-bites Demarschal with a turn for Putman.

1967
01:39:34,620 --> 01:39:35,780
Up to center, leap and draw,

1968
01:39:35,780 --> 01:39:36,900
and it's too deep.

1969
01:39:36,900 --> 01:39:37,820
He carries all the way down,

1970
01:39:37,820 --> 01:39:39,300
across the Ranger goal line.

1971
01:39:39,300 --> 01:39:41,300
Ron Harris is back forward now.

1972
01:39:41,300 --> 01:39:42,940
Harris moves to the near corner,

1973
01:39:42,940 --> 01:39:43,780
ahead for Ratel.

1974
01:39:43,780 --> 01:39:45,140
He's bothered by Parisi.

1975
01:39:45,140 --> 01:39:47,860
Tremendous checking game for JP Parisi.

1976
01:39:47,860 --> 01:39:49,380
Now here's Park to center.

1977
01:39:49,380 --> 01:39:51,940
Park stick handles and across the Islander blue line.

1978
01:39:51,940 --> 01:39:53,540
Now Park puts on the brakes.

1979
01:39:53,540 --> 01:39:55,140
Park cuts to his rep.

1980
01:39:55,140 --> 01:39:56,660
Park circles out to the point.

1981
01:39:56,660 --> 01:39:59,020
Harris wide open shot, shoots wide.

1982
01:39:59,020 --> 01:40:01,260
On the rebound, it carries around the boards

1983
01:40:01,260 --> 01:40:03,860
and all the way down ice.

1984
01:40:03,860 --> 01:40:06,460
Across the Ranger blue line, Park is back forward.

1985
01:40:06,460 --> 01:40:08,500
A minute and a half remaining in the second period.

1986
01:40:08,500 --> 01:40:09,820
Park a lead for Ratel.

1987
01:40:09,820 --> 01:40:10,660
It's too deep.

1988
01:40:10,660 --> 01:40:12,540
Ratel cannot get to it.

1989
01:40:12,540 --> 01:40:13,940
Comes deep and out of the ice,

1990
01:40:13,940 --> 01:40:15,860
picked off by Burt Marshall.

1991
01:40:15,860 --> 01:40:17,380
Standing back behind his own net,

1992
01:40:17,380 --> 01:40:19,500
watched by the fore-checking Ratel.

1993
01:40:19,500 --> 01:40:21,900
Marshall flips it off the boards for Drowan.

1994
01:40:21,900 --> 01:40:23,540
Going into center now for the Islanders.

1995
01:40:23,540 --> 01:40:24,660
That's Parisi left.

1996
01:40:24,660 --> 01:40:27,260
For the Ranger line, cuts to the far boards,

1997
01:40:27,260 --> 01:40:30,660
goes to the far corner, around Harris who falls down.

1998
01:40:30,660 --> 01:40:33,780
That loses back the rebound and Park comes in with it.

1999
01:40:33,780 --> 01:40:36,220
A minute remaining now, another second minute.

2000
01:40:36,220 --> 01:40:38,620
Park a back pass but a stop by Chalkiman.

2001
01:40:38,620 --> 01:40:40,380
Leaves for Rod Harris.

2002
01:40:40,380 --> 01:40:41,860
Harris cuts down the line.

2003
01:40:41,860 --> 01:40:43,540
Moves it ahead now to Ratel.

2004
01:40:43,540 --> 01:40:46,500
Ratel cross-ice intercepted by Westphal.

2005
01:40:46,500 --> 01:40:49,700
Westphal loses control and Ratel takes it back.

2006
01:40:49,700 --> 01:40:51,700
Ratel back pass for Park.

2007
01:40:51,700 --> 01:40:53,020
Park up to center.

2008
01:40:53,020 --> 01:40:55,780
Now Park up to the end of the line.

2009
01:40:55,780 --> 01:40:57,820
Park cuts right, a drop for Harris.

2010
01:40:57,820 --> 01:41:00,420
Into the slot, Kachuk shoots, stick save made.

2011
01:41:00,420 --> 01:41:02,340
Rebound clear, comes to Kachuk.

2012
01:41:02,340 --> 01:41:05,020
He is up top of the play and Dennis Parkman

2013
01:41:05,020 --> 01:41:05,980
shoots it up center.

2014
01:41:05,980 --> 01:41:07,900
Gillies leads a two-on-one across the Ranger line.

2015
01:41:07,900 --> 01:41:09,180
Brad, stick save made, rebound.

2016
01:41:09,180 --> 01:41:11,540
Westphal is off the glass back behind the net.

2017
01:41:11,540 --> 01:41:13,700
Gillies able to race down the rebound,

2018
01:41:13,700 --> 01:41:15,620
puts on the stick of Harbin.

2019
01:41:15,620 --> 01:41:17,180
He is knocked off the play.

2020
01:41:17,180 --> 01:41:19,220
Kachuk having a turn all the way down.

2021
01:41:19,220 --> 01:41:21,020
Down the out of the side by the man at advantage.

2022
01:41:21,020 --> 01:41:23,740
Westphal up to the Ranger line, cross-ice Gillies.

2023
01:41:23,740 --> 01:41:26,300
He shoots, stick save made by Jockerman.

2024
01:41:26,300 --> 01:41:28,940
Huck is still loose, comes out for the point to Marshall.

2025
01:41:28,940 --> 01:41:31,020
Marshall on the drive, stopped by Kachuk.

2026
01:41:31,020 --> 01:41:33,500
Westphal keeps it alive but time runs out.

2027
01:41:33,500 --> 01:41:35,540
In the second period of play.

2028
01:41:35,540 --> 01:41:38,060
That's the end of the second period.

2029
01:41:38,060 --> 01:41:42,660
With the New York Islanders leading the New York Rangers

2030
01:41:42,660 --> 01:41:45,500
by the score of three nothing.

2031
01:41:45,500 --> 01:41:47,500
We'll be back in a minute.

2032
01:41:47,500 --> 01:41:54,500
We've got the Racer, we've got the Racer, we've got the Racer G.

2033
01:41:54,500 --> 01:41:57,500
A and C.

2034
01:41:57,500 --> 01:42:03,500
See the car, new wax can be.

2035
01:42:03,500 --> 01:42:09,500
Drive the Pacer and G.

2036
01:42:09,500 --> 01:42:14,500
Piper's old car is here.

2037
01:42:14,500 --> 01:42:19,500
Pacer is a whole new kind of car and it's at your AMC dealers now.

2038
01:42:19,500 --> 01:42:24,500
With Pacer you get the ride, the room, the comfort of a much bigger car.

2039
01:42:24,500 --> 01:42:28,500
Plus it's so smooth and stable you've got to drive it to the lake.

2040
01:42:28,500 --> 01:42:33,500
And Pacer gives you the wide, wide coverage of the AMC Fire Protection Plan.

2041
01:42:33,500 --> 01:42:35,500
See the new Pacer today.

2042
01:42:35,500 --> 01:42:47,500
We've got the Pacer, we've got the Pacer, we've got the Pacer.

2043
01:42:47,500 --> 01:42:49,500
Shots are drawn in the second period.

2044
01:42:49,500 --> 01:42:53,500
Islanders 13, Rangers 11 overall after two.

2045
01:42:53,500 --> 01:43:00,500
Rangers 26 shots at Billy Smith who has been back in goal for the New York Islanders.

2046
01:43:00,500 --> 01:43:07,500
Now the Islanders with 21 against the combination of Villamur and Chamberlain Chacaman are coming in at the 14 minute mark of the second period.

2047
01:43:07,500 --> 01:43:14,500
In the first period it was Gillies with his second goal of the playoffs from Bourne and Markle at the 16 minute mark.

2048
01:43:14,500 --> 01:43:19,500
And then Dennis Peppin in the halfway deflecting in a shot taken from the Parkour brother John.

2049
01:43:19,500 --> 01:43:27,500
John Peppin and Bob Maistrom picking up the assist at 8.26 and then Dennis Peppin on a short-handed four-ringer.

2050
01:43:27,500 --> 01:43:33,500
Second of the second period was hitting assisting at 12.51.

2051
01:43:33,500 --> 01:43:38,500
Medleys in the second, Howlett for a hold, 3.36.

2052
01:43:38,500 --> 01:43:42,500
Fairburn and Dennis Popman together for charging 5.08.

2053
01:43:42,500 --> 01:43:46,500
Greschner for a grip, 6.30. Mark for holding, 11.32.

2054
01:43:46,500 --> 01:43:53,500
Popman and Lewis together, two minutes apiece for roughing, five minutes apiece for fighting at 12.44.

2055
01:43:53,500 --> 01:44:04,500
Harris for a slash at the 15.20 and then Howlett together with Chacaman at 17.34 as they got involved in front of the Ranger that.

2056
01:44:04,500 --> 01:44:09,500
Two minutes on Howlett for roughing, Chacaman received two for cross-check, two for roughing.

2057
01:44:09,500 --> 01:44:18,500
And that finally served by Nick Bebely and then Stankowski got the game miscovered putting third man in at 17.34.

2058
01:44:18,500 --> 01:44:30,500
So the Rangers are now very much with their backs to the wall as the third period upcoming in about 15 minutes from now

2059
01:44:30,500 --> 01:44:40,500
represents what could be the final period of hockey for the 74-75 Rangers unless there is an incredible turnabout very, very shortly.

2060
01:44:40,500 --> 01:44:45,500
Three-nothing to score, the Idol is on top after two periods.

2061
01:44:45,500 --> 01:44:51,500
And the final moment, Sal, we'll be talking with Pittsburgh Penguin Scout Jack Riley.

2062
01:44:51,500 --> 01:44:57,500
Final score, the Chicago Blackhawks have defeated the Boston Brawns 6-4.

2063
01:44:57,500 --> 01:45:08,500
That is a final and so in an upset, the Blackhawks have taken the series from Boston two games to one.

2064
01:45:08,500 --> 01:45:10,500
Bob Boston had the first game in that series.

2065
01:45:10,500 --> 01:45:13,500
I've been told that the shot's on goal in that game.

2066
01:45:13,500 --> 01:45:18,500
Now this is not official, it's not official statistic, well 51 to 18.

2067
01:45:18,500 --> 01:45:28,500
Boston taking 51 shots to Tony Esposito, Chicago scoring six goals on 18 shots on Boston goal-tenders, whoever it may have been.

2068
01:45:28,500 --> 01:45:30,500
That's incredible. We'll have to check that out.

2069
01:45:30,500 --> 01:45:36,500
Yeah, we will. It's Jack Riley that just came down from the press box, relayed that information to us.

2070
01:45:36,500 --> 01:45:41,500
Okay, now the Braves are breaking the action right here between periods two and three.

2071
01:45:41,500 --> 01:45:45,500
It's about time to remind you about new Ultrabahn Super Dry anti-fusbra.

2072
01:45:45,500 --> 01:45:52,500
Ultrabahn Super Dry not only sprays on really dry, it is also more effective in helping stop wetness.

2073
01:45:52,500 --> 01:45:57,500
That's right, tests have shown that Ultrabahn Super Dry will help stop wetness better than White Guard.

2074
01:45:57,500 --> 01:46:01,500
They're extra dry, soft and dry, and dry. They're all good.

2075
01:46:01,500 --> 01:46:05,500
But tests have shown new Ultrabahn Super Dry is better.

2076
01:46:05,500 --> 01:46:09,500
So why not try an anti-fusbra that is more effective in helping you stay dry.

2077
01:46:09,500 --> 01:46:12,500
That is new Ultrabahn Super Dry.

2078
01:46:12,500 --> 01:46:18,500
Between periods two and three, Islanders lead the Rangers by the score of 3-0 and here's Sal.

2079
01:46:18,500 --> 01:46:24,500
Thank you, Marv. And my guest in between the second and third period is Jack Riley, who's scouting for the Pittsburgh Tanguines.

2080
01:46:24,500 --> 01:46:27,500
Jack, this is a tremendous hockey game.

2081
01:46:27,500 --> 01:46:37,500
My opinion, that first period, the goaltenders for the Islanders, there's been some talk about them lately, but Billy Smith, he's a turning point in this hockey game.

2082
01:46:37,500 --> 01:46:43,500
Well, I think you're absolutely right, Sal. The first period I counted probably seven key saves that he made.

2083
01:46:43,500 --> 01:46:47,500
It's sort of been actually five or six goals for the Rangers, but he came up real big.

2084
01:46:47,500 --> 01:46:52,500
And apparently, this isn't what happened last night. Their goalkeeping wasn't that great, I understand.

2085
01:46:52,500 --> 01:47:01,500
But Billy Smith has certainly come on. Islanders have played well, they've got a couple of breaks, they've capitalized, they've scored three goals every way.

2086
01:47:01,500 --> 01:47:04,500
One shorthanded, one with the power play, and one at even strength.

2087
01:47:04,500 --> 01:47:12,500
And I believe now that they're not going to become involved in any fisticuffs or any rough stuff. They're going to try and stay on the ice.

2088
01:47:12,500 --> 01:47:17,500
However, that period, they didn't lay back. They went in a four-check, they didn't sit on their lead.

2089
01:47:17,500 --> 01:47:26,500
And the Rangers are really going to have to come up with something here if they're going to come out of it and go on to the next round, because the Islanders right now are controlling the game.

2090
01:47:26,500 --> 01:47:35,500
And as the Rangers open up, Sal, I think you can notice that there are so many two-and-three-on-one breaks against them, which happens. The Rangers have to take their chances.

2091
01:47:35,500 --> 01:47:48,500
And the Islanders are alert enough to come up with these. And the goalkeeping hitting the post and maybe a little over-anxiousness have prevented them from maybe having a goal or two more.

2092
01:47:48,500 --> 01:47:56,500
The Rangers have fallen into that pattern, losing to Minnesota here at the Guardians for about a week and a half remaining in the season.

2093
01:47:56,500 --> 01:48:01,500
They were beaten here by Fern Rivard, who played exceptional in the first period, and that sort of took the play away.

2094
01:48:01,500 --> 01:48:07,500
And Minnesota came up with a couple of goals, and that was it. The Rangers had a tough time fighting from behind.

2095
01:48:07,500 --> 01:48:13,500
That's a pattern, I think. A goaltender being strong in the beginning of a hockey game is so important.

2096
01:48:13,500 --> 01:48:19,500
Well, that's right. I feel sorry sometimes to hear the people criticize the Rangers because of not winning.

2097
01:48:19,500 --> 01:48:24,500
But sometimes you do run up against not goalkeeping, and that makes a big difference.

2098
01:48:24,500 --> 01:48:32,500
Last night I was in Toronto, and I saw the Los Angeles Kings and the Toronto Maple Leafs play, and as everybody knows, the Leafs won in overtime.

2099
01:48:32,500 --> 01:48:40,500
But in the first period, Vashon was called upon to make all seven or eight big saves, just like Billy Smith has done here tonight.

2100
01:48:40,500 --> 01:48:46,500
And he made them all except one, and instead of skating off the ice down four or five to nothing, they were only down one to nothing.

2101
01:48:46,500 --> 01:48:51,500
They managed to come back and go ahead two-one. The Leafs tied it and eventually won it.

2102
01:48:51,500 --> 01:48:59,500
And as I was saying before the game, I think Leafs might be a little fresher out there because they charted out last night after the game,

2103
01:48:59,500 --> 01:49:06,500
whereas Los Angeles went this morning. And I know players don't get much sleep after a tough game. Your nerves are on edge.

2104
01:49:06,500 --> 01:49:13,500
It was apparently 2 o'clock in the morning before the Los Angeles Kings could get to bed, and they have that long trip out there.

2105
01:49:13,500 --> 01:49:21,500
However, they do have one thing going for them. Mr. Vashon is a great goalkeeper, and I'm not taking anything away from the Cray and the Leafs net,

2106
01:49:21,500 --> 01:49:28,500
but he wasn't really tested, and if he comes up bad, LA could win it.

2107
01:49:28,500 --> 01:49:34,500
It's a hard series to decide. It's a close one. They've both gone into overtime to win.

2108
01:49:34,500 --> 01:49:40,500
The best is this series right now, but it ends this way. No team has taken advantage of their home ice.

2109
01:49:40,500 --> 01:49:46,500
And I usually keep statistics during the season, and the team that is playing at home wins 62% of the time,

2110
01:49:46,500 --> 01:49:50,500
and the team that scores the first goal wins 66% of the time.

2111
01:49:50,500 --> 01:49:56,500
So if you're playing on your home ice and you shouldn't come up with the first goal, your chances are something like 85%.

2112
01:49:56,500 --> 01:50:02,500
However, statistics are for the birds, I suppose, when the playoffs come along, and you're into a new series.

2113
01:50:02,500 --> 01:50:07,500
That's a great one. You also made a statement. In fact, you made it twice.

2114
01:50:07,500 --> 01:50:11,500
You talked about Vashon making the key saves for LA, although Toronto did end up winning the game.

2115
01:50:11,500 --> 01:50:15,500
You talked about Smith making five or six tough saves.

2116
01:50:15,500 --> 01:50:20,500
When you're scanning a game, are you looking at that? Are there no goals? Are there no count shots on goal?

2117
01:50:20,500 --> 01:50:25,500
You have to look at the big saves, I think, are more important than all of the shots.

2118
01:50:25,500 --> 01:50:29,500
You have a lot of shots from the blue line. Occasionally one does go in.

2119
01:50:29,500 --> 01:50:34,500
Is that something you yourself look for as to see how well a goaltender is playing rather than the total shot?

2120
01:50:34,500 --> 01:50:39,500
I don't think the total shots on goal mean too much. I think, as you pointed out, the key ones.

2121
01:50:39,500 --> 01:50:44,500
I don't usually keep them, but I've been intending to keep key saves, and I did it the first period.

2122
01:50:44,500 --> 01:50:48,500
I made it a point to every tough chance the goalkeeper had to handle.

2123
01:50:48,500 --> 01:50:52,500
Billy Smith had seven tough ones, and I think Villamere had three.

2124
01:50:52,500 --> 01:50:56,500
They are the big things to look for.

2125
01:50:56,500 --> 01:50:59,500
It's surprising what a lift it gives a team.

2126
01:50:59,500 --> 01:51:03,500
Here's a team like the Islanders who were a little disorganized in the first period.

2127
01:51:03,500 --> 01:51:07,500
We have to be honest about that. There were some plays originating from the boards.

2128
01:51:07,500 --> 01:51:11,500
One I can think of, I think, was Jude Drew, and threw it out to Rattelle right in the slot.

2129
01:51:11,500 --> 01:51:15,500
The Islanders don't usually do this. They're well-disciplined hockey clubs coming out of their own end.

2130
01:51:15,500 --> 01:51:20,500
They come up their sides. They don't usually come up the middle where you can get into some real problems.

2131
01:51:20,500 --> 01:51:26,500
The Rangers didn't score. The Islanders can thank Billy Smith.

2132
01:51:26,500 --> 01:51:30,500
He had held them in there long enough where they've been able to capitalize.

2133
01:51:30,500 --> 01:51:36,500
I figure in the course of a season, good goalkeeping will steal five or six games a year you don't deserve to win.

2134
01:51:36,500 --> 01:51:38,500
I'm not taking anything away from the Islanders.

2135
01:51:38,500 --> 01:51:41,500
They didn't have the greatest first period, but they played well that second.

2136
01:51:41,500 --> 01:51:45,500
They deserve to be ahead in the game, whether it's three to nothing or not.

2137
01:51:45,500 --> 01:51:49,500
I wouldn't say they deserve to be ahead that much. I think it's a fairly even hockey game.

2138
01:51:49,500 --> 01:51:51,500
But Smith has been the difference.

2139
01:51:51,500 --> 01:51:56,500
Jack, you talked about the LA-Toronto series, the game in which you saw last night.

2140
01:51:56,500 --> 01:51:59,500
That has to be a big series as far as the Pittsburgh Penguins are concerned.

2141
01:51:59,500 --> 01:52:03,500
Well, it is now, Sal, especially since Boston were big.

2142
01:52:03,500 --> 01:52:08,500
Boston were the fifth seed, Pittsburgh the sixth seed, and LA the fourth seed.

2143
01:52:08,500 --> 01:52:14,500
So if LA gets knocked out as the fourth seed, and Boston has been knocked out as the fifth seed,

2144
01:52:14,500 --> 01:52:19,500
then it moves Pittsburgh from sixth to fourth and gives them the advantage of home ice opening up on Sunday,

2145
01:52:19,500 --> 01:52:24,500
which they never dreamed of, I don't think, that Boston and LA are knocked out.

2146
01:52:24,500 --> 01:52:30,500
If they were knocked out, then Pittsburgh would meet the winner of this game here in Pittsburgh on Sunday, if LA loses.

2147
01:52:30,500 --> 01:52:35,500
Talking about the Pittsburgh Penguins, they've had an outstanding season, especially at home.

2148
01:52:35,500 --> 01:52:42,500
They've had a tremendous record at home. They've only lost five games there, and I think they were 35-5, I believe.

2149
01:52:42,500 --> 01:52:47,500
I know the last 31 games they only lost one. They've had a lot of balance on the hockey club.

2150
01:52:47,500 --> 01:52:53,500
They have nine fellows who scored over 20 goals, and the lines are evenly balanced.

2151
01:52:53,500 --> 01:53:00,500
The so-called third line of LaRouche and Bob Kelly and Arnest, and I don't call it that, but I read about it as being called that,

2152
01:53:00,500 --> 01:53:07,500
scored all the goals in the game on Tuesday night with LaRouche getting the winner.

2153
01:53:07,500 --> 01:53:13,500
It's a great thing for a rookie to come into the league and score a winning goal in his first playoff game ever.

2154
01:53:13,500 --> 01:53:18,500
It reminds me of Michel Brouillère, who some people may remember, played for Pittsburgh about four years ago,

2155
01:53:18,500 --> 01:53:23,500
had one great rookie season, lost his life in a car accident in the offseason.

2156
01:53:23,500 --> 01:53:28,500
He actually lingered on for nine months, but he lost his life, and he came up with a big goal.

2157
01:53:28,500 --> 01:53:31,500
I remember we finished second that year, and we met Oakland, who finished fourth,

2158
01:53:31,500 --> 01:53:36,500
and he came up with a winning goal in overtime out there when we eliminated Oakland to go on and beat St. Louis.

2159
01:53:36,500 --> 01:53:42,500
It reminds me of him in that they come up with a big play in a big game, which is a sign of a champion.

2160
01:53:42,500 --> 01:53:46,500
I also think you improved your goal-tending. You had some problems earlier.

2161
01:53:46,500 --> 01:53:51,500
Oh, I don't know if you had problems, but Gary Innis has played well, and then you made a trade with Dennis Herndt,

2162
01:53:51,500 --> 01:53:57,500
which sent over to Kansas City for Michel Plot, and the only time we saw Plot, he played against the Rangers out in Kansas City,

2163
01:53:57,500 --> 01:54:05,500
and looked very shaky. Well, Plot has played well, but I think he needed a lot of work, and unfortunately,

2164
01:54:05,500 --> 01:54:09,500
I think Mark Puello was going to use him quite extensively down the stretch,

2165
01:54:09,500 --> 01:54:12,500
and he came up with an ankle injury and re-injured it the other night.

2166
01:54:12,500 --> 01:54:16,500
So Gary Innis has had a lot of pressure on him this year, being a rookie.

2167
01:54:16,500 --> 01:54:21,500
Most people have played very well, and he did a good job at both the opening games against St. Louis.

2168
01:54:21,500 --> 01:54:31,500
I think he's come of age. I think he can do the job, and he feels that he's in a tough spot.

2169
01:54:31,500 --> 01:54:37,500
I know that, speaking to him, that he feels it, but he's overcome it, and I think he can do the job for the Penguins,

2170
01:54:37,500 --> 01:54:43,500
and they have a good defense. They check well in front, and I think they could be a real surprise in the playoffs.

2171
01:54:43,500 --> 01:54:48,500
Oh, if they're meeting the Rangers and Islanders, it'll be, or Islanders will be quite a series.

2172
01:54:48,500 --> 01:54:52,500
Jack, what do you look for the rest of this game? I know you have to open up them.

2173
01:54:52,500 --> 01:54:57,500
Sure, the Rangers have to open up, but right now they're going to have to fight and kill off a power play opportunity.

2174
01:54:57,500 --> 01:55:01,500
I think there's about a minute and 30 seconds left on a penalty to Jocomar.

2175
01:55:01,500 --> 01:55:06,500
Well, there's no doubt about it. I think Emil realizes, and all the Rangers do, that they have to pull all out the stops.

2176
01:55:06,500 --> 01:55:12,500
They've got to give it the best 20 minutes of the entire season now, and they have to put it in.

2177
01:55:12,500 --> 01:55:19,500
I think if they're having trouble making plays going in, they'll get over the red line and fire it in with two guys in on the puck,

2178
01:55:19,500 --> 01:55:24,500
hopefully the first guy to take the man and the second one take the puck and give it to the opening guy.

2179
01:55:24,500 --> 01:55:29,500
The Islanders know this. The Islanders will be coming back and they will be trying to get that puck first.

2180
01:55:29,500 --> 01:55:35,500
But I don't think you'll look for the Islanders taking any penalties if they can possibly help it.

2181
01:55:35,500 --> 01:55:39,500
The Rangers are going to come out fighting. They know that this is a big 20 minutes,

2182
01:55:39,500 --> 01:55:43,500
and Billy Smith continues to play the way he has. It'll be tough.

2183
01:55:43,500 --> 01:55:49,500
But a hockey game is made up of 60 minutes, and 40 minutes doesn't necessarily mean the game.

2184
01:55:49,500 --> 01:55:53,500
Maybe it will be this way at the end of 60, but we don't know. It's up to the guys on the ice now.

2185
01:55:53,500 --> 01:55:58,500
Jack Riley, the Pittsburgh Penguins, thanks for coming on, and good luck to the Pittsburgh and the rest of the playoffs.

2186
01:55:58,500 --> 01:55:59,500
Thank you very much.

2187
01:55:59,500 --> 01:56:04,500
Mark, okay, so right here before the two teams come out for the start of play of the third period,

2188
01:56:04,500 --> 01:56:10,500
let's send it to Bob Higgins at the WNAW newsroom. We'll be back after this word.

2189
01:56:10,500 --> 01:56:13,500
Thank you, Mark. A special report from the WNAW newsroom.

2190
01:56:13,500 --> 01:56:18,500
The fall of Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, to insurgent Khmer Rouge forces is imminent.

2191
01:56:18,500 --> 01:56:23,500
U.S. Embassy in Phnom Penh has been ordered to pull out the North American officials evacuated from the capital,

2192
01:56:23,500 --> 01:56:26,500
signaling the abandonment of the nation by the U.S.

2193
01:56:26,500 --> 01:56:33,500
A statement issued by the State Department says this evacuation is taking place in an effort to ensure the safety of U.S. citizens in Cambodia.

2194
01:56:33,500 --> 01:56:41,500
The evacuation being carried out by U.S. military helicopters with tactical aircraft in the vicinity in the event they are needed.

2195
01:56:41,500 --> 01:56:47,500
The total number of Americans being airlifted out is around 150, including about 25 newsmen.

2196
01:56:47,500 --> 01:56:50,500
I'm Bob Hagan, WNAW News. Now back to Sal Massina and Mark Albert.

2197
01:56:50,500 --> 01:56:53,500
Period three of tonight's Rangers game.

2198
01:56:53,500 --> 01:56:56,500
Thank you, Bob. Rangers are back on now. They will be from the Gulf.

2199
01:56:56,500 --> 01:57:02,500
You are left in this third and what they hope will not be their final period of 74 and 75.

2200
01:57:02,500 --> 01:57:07,500
The New York Islanders will be on in just a moment. We'll be back after this from Safer.

2201
01:57:07,500 --> 01:57:19,500
Music

2202
01:57:19,500 --> 01:57:23,500
Listen to the smooth sliding sound of a country steel guitar.

2203
01:57:23,500 --> 01:57:27,500
See yourself on a fine summer evening doing what you please.

2204
01:57:27,500 --> 01:57:31,500
Pleasing yourself with the mellow flavor of some fine cold beer.

2205
01:57:31,500 --> 01:57:34,500
Not just any beer, Schaefer beer.

2206
01:57:34,500 --> 01:57:39,500
Because Schaefer is the one beer that goes all evening, still tasting like the night is young.

2207
01:57:39,500 --> 01:57:44,500
The one beer with flavor that never creates glass after frosty glass.

2208
01:57:44,500 --> 01:57:51,500
Schaefer stays so smooth, so first beer fine that every Schaefer plays like music to your thirst.

2209
01:57:51,500 --> 01:57:56,500
Schaefer, it's the one beer to have, to having more than one.

2210
01:57:56,500 --> 01:58:05,500
Music

2211
01:58:05,500 --> 01:58:08,500
The F&M Schaefer Brewing Company, New York, New York.

2212
01:58:08,500 --> 01:58:15,500
All our Between Periods guests receive a Sony AM-FM Digimatic Clock Radio with push-button controls.

2213
01:58:15,500 --> 01:58:22,500
Automatic sleep timer. The Sony also has illuminated easy-to-read clock numerals in that big three-inch speaker.

2214
01:58:22,500 --> 01:58:27,500
It's not just the radio, it's a Sony. And as we get underway here in the third period,

2215
01:58:27,500 --> 01:58:33,500
a minute thirty-four remaining on that Ranger penalty against Ed Jockinam that is being served by Nick Bemily.

2216
01:58:33,500 --> 01:58:36,500
Rangers defend to our left with Jockinam.

2217
01:58:36,500 --> 01:58:40,500
And this to our right with Billy Smith, who has been spectacular.

2218
01:58:40,500 --> 01:58:43,500
Idle most rated by the storm, three-nil thing on the faceoff.

2219
01:58:43,500 --> 01:58:48,500
Ed Westphal steps on, let's see if they call a too-many-minute on ice penalty.

2220
01:58:48,500 --> 01:58:54,500
Hood tapped the puck, and Al Arbor had changed his mind, and let's see what happens right here.

2221
01:58:54,500 --> 01:59:00,500
Westphal come out as the puck was dropped to talk to Bruce Hood about something.

2222
01:59:00,500 --> 01:59:05,500
He is the captain of the team, and it's something the Lions have blew the whistle.

2223
01:59:05,500 --> 01:59:09,500
As Westphal opened the door and made the step out on the ice, Hood had his back to the play.

2224
01:59:09,500 --> 01:59:13,500
When the Lions would have to look for things like that, blew the whistle, canceling the faceoff.

2225
01:59:13,500 --> 01:59:18,500
All right, so they dropped the puck once again, and on the drop, sent all the way down and out of the ice.

2226
01:59:18,500 --> 01:59:19,500
Park back forward now.

2227
01:59:19,500 --> 01:59:22,500
Islanders move right to left, Rangers left to right.

2228
01:59:22,500 --> 01:59:25,500
Hard ahead now for Bourne, moves to center, and shoots in.

2229
01:59:25,500 --> 01:59:29,500
A bounce to the right side of Jockinam, and he holds it away from Bourne, dumps it around the board.

2230
01:59:29,500 --> 01:59:31,500
Fabulous after it looks to clear and does.

2231
01:59:31,500 --> 01:59:35,500
Shoots it the length of the ice, stopped by the goaltender, Smith.

2232
01:59:35,500 --> 01:59:37,500
A minute ten remaining on that Ranger penalty.

2233
01:59:37,500 --> 01:59:39,500
Dennis Putnam is back forward.

2234
01:59:39,500 --> 01:59:43,500
Down the island of it, now Putnam starts up, swings it on the near boards for Bourne.

2235
01:59:43,500 --> 01:59:44,500
Bourne is up to center.

2236
01:59:44,500 --> 01:59:46,500
A back pass for Putnam.

2237
01:59:46,500 --> 01:59:49,500
Putnam down to center slot, feeds on the right to Bourne, breaks around,

2238
01:59:49,500 --> 01:59:53,500
Kachuk to the far corner, now looks to center, he does, but Kachuk intercepts.

2239
01:59:53,500 --> 01:59:55,500
Ahead for Faber at center, moving on.

2240
01:59:55,500 --> 01:59:59,500
Gillies turned around by Gillies, and then Faber loses on a poke check.

2241
01:59:59,500 --> 02:00:01,500
Penalty Harris takes it away.

2242
02:00:01,500 --> 02:00:04,500
Forty seconds out, the Ranger penalty, Harris to center.

2243
02:00:04,500 --> 02:00:06,500
Stick handles, then he's submarine by Park.

2244
02:00:06,500 --> 02:00:10,500
He goes flying, Putt comes out in front of it, and that shock him and puts on the stick of Kachuk.

2245
02:00:10,500 --> 02:00:15,500
Kachuk out of the Ranger zone, battles his way to center past St. Laurent,

2246
02:00:15,500 --> 02:00:17,500
and then holds a back pass for Putt.

2247
02:00:17,500 --> 02:00:19,500
Smith is in his own hand.

2248
02:00:19,500 --> 02:00:22,500
Twenty-five seconds now on that Ranger penalty.

2249
02:00:22,500 --> 02:00:26,500
Now Putt in his own hand, watched by Howard, throws it ahead for Marot.

2250
02:00:26,500 --> 02:00:28,500
Marot guns it all the way down.

2251
02:00:28,500 --> 02:00:31,500
Smith has to make a reeling save.

2252
02:00:31,500 --> 02:00:36,500
Woods it and grabs it for Hart. Hart back behind his net, chased by Sanderson.

2253
02:00:36,500 --> 02:00:40,500
Rangers trailing badly here, three-nuffing as Hart sends ahead for Howard.

2254
02:00:40,500 --> 02:00:44,500
He's hit high and hard by Butler, the pass to St. Laurent at center.

2255
02:00:44,500 --> 02:00:48,500
He's in across the Ranger line, loses on a stick check, and Greshner comes up with it.

2256
02:00:48,500 --> 02:00:52,500
Greshner is sent flying to the ice, and a penalty called against the Islanders.

2257
02:00:52,500 --> 02:00:55,500
A tripping penalty is called.

2258
02:00:55,500 --> 02:01:01,500
Just as Beverly made his return, the Islanders are hit with a penalty right here.

2259
02:01:01,500 --> 02:01:04,500
And so the Rangers will have the man advantage.

2260
02:01:04,500 --> 02:01:08,500
Maybe your hands can tell you what to use with your hair.

2261
02:01:08,500 --> 02:01:12,500
Spray a little of that hairspray that says it looks dry on one side of your hair,

2262
02:01:12,500 --> 02:01:15,500
a little by Thomas, dry three on the other.

2263
02:01:15,500 --> 02:01:20,500
Now, feel with your hands, the Viterbas Dry Three side feels practically dry.

2264
02:01:20,500 --> 02:01:23,500
That other hairspray makes your hair feel wet,

2265
02:01:23,500 --> 02:01:26,500
and when it does dry, it makes your hair feel stiff.

2266
02:01:26,500 --> 02:01:30,500
The Viterbas Dry Three side feels softer, not nearly as stiff.

2267
02:01:30,500 --> 02:01:35,500
Viterbas Dry Three, the hairspray that feels as good as it looks.

2268
02:01:35,500 --> 02:01:42,500
It is two minutes for tripping, assessed on Gary Howard at one-three-nuff.

2269
02:01:42,500 --> 02:01:45,500
And the Rangers needed an early goal to pull up their confidence.

2270
02:01:45,500 --> 02:01:47,500
They have to beat Smith early in this period.

2271
02:01:47,500 --> 02:01:50,500
Now they have the man advantage to try to do that.

2272
02:01:50,500 --> 02:01:53,500
A little return on the faceoff at center, taken by Park.

2273
02:01:53,500 --> 02:01:55,500
Park cuts back to his blue line.

2274
02:01:55,500 --> 02:01:57,500
Ben goes cross-sides to Gilbert.

2275
02:01:57,500 --> 02:01:58,500
Park rolls off his stick.

2276
02:01:58,500 --> 02:02:00,500
He recovers and makes the move to center.

2277
02:02:00,500 --> 02:02:02,500
Back the other way for Park.

2278
02:02:02,500 --> 02:02:04,500
Park up to the out of the line, loses control.

2279
02:02:04,500 --> 02:02:06,500
Vickers comes back for him.

2280
02:02:06,500 --> 02:02:08,500
Now Vickers leads retail.

2281
02:02:08,500 --> 02:02:09,500
It's all pissed at.

2282
02:02:09,500 --> 02:02:11,500
He chases it down, loses control.

2283
02:02:11,500 --> 02:02:12,500
Out of the sky, clear.

2284
02:02:12,500 --> 02:02:13,500
Park keeps in.

2285
02:02:13,500 --> 02:02:15,500
Out to Gilbert at the right point.

2286
02:02:15,500 --> 02:02:16,500
A return for Park at the left point.

2287
02:02:16,500 --> 02:02:17,500
He shoots.

2288
02:02:17,500 --> 02:02:18,500
Save, man!

2289
02:02:18,500 --> 02:02:19,500
Beautiful.

2290
02:02:19,500 --> 02:02:22,500
And he holds on with Fiddleton kept in front of the net.

2291
02:02:22,500 --> 02:02:25,500
Billy Smith with that butterfly save and the glove up in the air.

2292
02:02:25,500 --> 02:02:27,500
The puck got through.

2293
02:02:27,500 --> 02:02:29,500
Burt Marshall in front, did not stop it.

2294
02:02:29,500 --> 02:02:31,500
Smith saw it all the way.

2295
02:02:31,500 --> 02:02:32,500
He kept his blood there.

2296
02:02:32,500 --> 02:02:33,500
Good save.

2297
02:02:33,500 --> 02:02:36,500
Faceoff right side now at that island of the net.

2298
02:02:36,500 --> 02:02:39,500
A minute and a half remaining on the island of penalty to Howard.

2299
02:02:39,500 --> 02:02:42,500
On the drop, sent to the right side of the goal.

2300
02:02:42,500 --> 02:02:46,500
Now Marshall swings it around the boards and all the way down.

2301
02:02:46,500 --> 02:02:49,500
Jockeman stops it behind the net, leaves for Gilbert.

2302
02:02:49,500 --> 02:02:51,500
And Gilbert starts up.

2303
02:02:51,500 --> 02:02:52,500
Rangers skate left to right.

2304
02:02:52,500 --> 02:02:54,500
Here's Gilbert up to center.

2305
02:02:54,500 --> 02:02:58,500
A lead for Rattelle that humps over his stick and rolls to the stick of Lewis of the island of the net.

2306
02:02:58,500 --> 02:03:00,500
And he clears all the way down.

2307
02:03:00,500 --> 02:03:01,500
Stopped by Jockeman.

2308
02:03:01,500 --> 02:03:03,500
He springs it ahead for Gilbert.

2309
02:03:03,500 --> 02:03:06,500
Gilbert cuts back at his own head and now starts up.

2310
02:03:06,500 --> 02:03:08,500
Accelerates to center.

2311
02:03:08,500 --> 02:03:10,500
Leads Middleton in across the out of the line.

2312
02:03:10,500 --> 02:03:11,500
He cuts in front.

2313
02:03:11,500 --> 02:03:12,500
Back pass, McCuttle, shot.

2314
02:03:12,500 --> 02:03:13,500
Save, man!

2315
02:03:13,500 --> 02:03:16,500
Rattelle rolls it out to the point for Park.

2316
02:03:16,500 --> 02:03:18,500
Park back the other way for Joe Baer.

2317
02:03:18,500 --> 02:03:19,500
To the far corner, Vickers.

2318
02:03:19,500 --> 02:03:21,500
Vickers sends it for Middleton.

2319
02:03:21,500 --> 02:03:22,500
Shot stopped by Smith.

2320
02:03:22,500 --> 02:03:23,500
Comes to Park.

2321
02:03:23,500 --> 02:03:24,500
High drive.

2322
02:03:24,500 --> 02:03:25,500
Here's off the glass back behind him.

2323
02:03:25,500 --> 02:03:27,500
Rolls around the boards to Joe Baer.

2324
02:03:27,500 --> 02:03:28,500
He goes cross-ice to Park.

2325
02:03:28,500 --> 02:03:30,500
Plays it on the backhand at the left part.

2326
02:03:30,500 --> 02:03:33,500
Park sets up to the corner and goes to Middleton.

2327
02:03:33,500 --> 02:03:34,500
In front for Rattelle.

2328
02:03:34,500 --> 02:03:35,500
Cannot get the stick down.

2329
02:03:35,500 --> 02:03:36,500
It's rolled to the point.

2330
02:03:36,500 --> 02:03:37,500
Joe Baer drives.

2331
02:03:37,500 --> 02:03:38,500
Let's see.

2332
02:03:38,500 --> 02:03:41,500
Is stopped in the midsection by Smith.

2333
02:03:41,500 --> 02:03:42,500
And he holds on.

2334
02:03:42,500 --> 02:03:43,500
Rangers getting the opportunities.

2335
02:03:43,500 --> 02:03:45,500
The shots from far out.

2336
02:03:45,500 --> 02:03:47,500
Trying one opportunity in close.

2337
02:03:47,500 --> 02:03:48,500
Middleton just could not get to Park.

2338
02:03:48,500 --> 02:03:50,500
And Park had the shot.

2339
02:03:50,500 --> 02:03:51,500
Deflected in front.

2340
02:03:51,500 --> 02:03:52,500
Rattelle with a rebound.

2341
02:03:52,500 --> 02:03:56,500
And Billy Smith with a great kick save with his right foot.

2342
02:03:56,500 --> 02:03:58,500
16-53.

2343
02:03:58,500 --> 02:04:00,500
Remaining of this third period.

2344
02:04:00,500 --> 02:04:03,500
Rangers down 3-0.

2345
02:04:03,500 --> 02:04:06,500
Third and final game of this two out of three playoff series.

2346
02:04:06,500 --> 02:04:08,500
Tied at one and thanks.

2347
02:04:08,500 --> 02:04:09,500
Alpha face, that's puttman.

2348
02:04:09,500 --> 02:04:10,500
Clears it all the way down.

2349
02:04:10,500 --> 02:04:13,500
It's to the right side of the ranger.

2350
02:04:13,500 --> 02:04:15,500
That shockerman stops it for Park.

2351
02:04:15,500 --> 02:04:17,500
Rangers have a long way back.

2352
02:04:17,500 --> 02:04:18,500
Ahead for Vickers at center.

2353
02:04:18,500 --> 02:04:19,500
Leads Rattelle.

2354
02:04:19,500 --> 02:04:21,500
Rattelle is up to the out of the line.

2355
02:04:21,500 --> 02:04:23,500
Bank pass knocked away and cleared out of the zone.

2356
02:04:23,500 --> 02:04:25,500
Park is back for it now.

2357
02:04:25,500 --> 02:04:26,500
Watched by Westphal.

2358
02:04:26,500 --> 02:04:28,500
Park spinning in his own head.

2359
02:04:28,500 --> 02:04:30,500
Ahead it goes to Joe Baer.

2360
02:04:30,500 --> 02:04:31,500
Headbakes on Westphal.

2361
02:04:31,500 --> 02:04:32,500
Makes the turn.

2362
02:04:32,500 --> 02:04:33,500
And starts up.

2363
02:04:33,500 --> 02:04:34,500
Ahead now.

2364
02:04:34,500 --> 02:04:35,500
Ka-choo.

2365
02:04:35,500 --> 02:04:36,500
He's up to the out of the line.

2366
02:04:36,500 --> 02:04:38,500
He cuts to his left side with a whistle.

2367
02:04:38,500 --> 02:04:39,500
Four and offside.

2368
02:04:39,500 --> 02:04:40,500
And will bring it back.

2369
02:04:40,500 --> 02:04:41,500
Face off.

2370
02:04:41,500 --> 02:04:42,500
Coming up now.

2371
02:04:42,500 --> 02:04:44,500
Outside the out of the blue line.

2372
02:04:44,500 --> 02:04:46,500
This time there's good work by the Islander forward.

2373
02:04:46,500 --> 02:04:48,500
Eddie Westphal and Lauren Henning.

2374
02:04:48,500 --> 02:04:51,500
They won a top two penalty killers in the league.

2375
02:04:51,500 --> 02:04:52,500
All season long.

2376
02:04:52,500 --> 02:04:54,500
They bought the rangers off.

2377
02:04:54,500 --> 02:04:55,500
Killed the penalty beautifully.

2378
02:04:55,500 --> 02:04:57,500
Eddie Westphal just does an outstanding job.

2379
02:04:57,500 --> 02:05:00,500
And Henning just plays his spot.

2380
02:05:00,500 --> 02:05:02,500
Checks what he has to.

2381
02:05:02,500 --> 02:05:04,500
Gets that point in and bottles him up.

2382
02:05:04,500 --> 02:05:05,500
Prevented from taking that shot on goal.

2383
02:05:05,500 --> 02:05:08,500
And that combination able to kill off the out of the penalty

2384
02:05:08,500 --> 02:05:10,500
with Howard returning on the face off.

2385
02:05:10,500 --> 02:05:12,500
Curie hard controls for the Islanders.

2386
02:05:12,500 --> 02:05:14,500
And it's cleared out of the zone.

2387
02:05:14,500 --> 02:05:16,500
It is run down by Marotta for Ranger Line.

2388
02:05:16,500 --> 02:05:18,500
Marotta now cuts deep in the zone.

2389
02:05:18,500 --> 02:05:21,500
And the Islanders continuing their persistent board checking.

2390
02:05:21,500 --> 02:05:23,500
Marotta stands behind the net.

2391
02:05:23,500 --> 02:05:24,500
Then puts on the stick of Ka-choo.

2392
02:05:24,500 --> 02:05:26,500
Ka-choo takes him to the right.

2393
02:05:26,500 --> 02:05:27,500
Marotta's up to the Ranger Line.

2394
02:05:27,500 --> 02:05:29,500
A lead for Ka-choo off his skate.

2395
02:05:29,500 --> 02:05:31,500
Picked up by Bourne.

2396
02:05:31,500 --> 02:05:33,500
Bourne is hit to the boards by Greshner.

2397
02:05:33,500 --> 02:05:35,500
Buck is loose at the Ranger Line.

2398
02:05:35,500 --> 02:05:36,500
Greshner comes up with it.

2399
02:05:36,500 --> 02:05:37,500
Greshner to center.

2400
02:05:37,500 --> 02:05:40,500
Greshner up across the Islander line.

2401
02:05:40,500 --> 02:05:41,500
He's turned around by Hart.

2402
02:05:41,500 --> 02:05:43,500
They bump each other against the boards.

2403
02:05:43,500 --> 02:05:45,500
It's sent back behind the net.

2404
02:05:45,500 --> 02:05:46,500
Dennis Putman is there.

2405
02:05:46,500 --> 02:05:48,500
Putman cuts to the near corner.

2406
02:05:48,500 --> 02:05:49,500
Putman moves to the near side.

2407
02:05:49,500 --> 02:05:52,500
Watched by Ka-choo and shoots it out of the zone.

2408
02:05:52,500 --> 02:05:54,500
Willie Harris could not get the stick on it.

2409
02:05:54,500 --> 02:05:55,500
It carries across the Ranger Line.

2410
02:05:55,500 --> 02:05:56,500
Marotta is there.

2411
02:05:56,500 --> 02:05:57,500
Shoots it ahead now.

2412
02:05:57,500 --> 02:05:59,500
Gillies takes that center.

2413
02:05:59,500 --> 02:06:01,500
He over skates and Ka-choo comes back with it.

2414
02:06:01,500 --> 02:06:02,500
Bank pass Fairburn.

2415
02:06:02,500 --> 02:06:03,500
Fairburn to center.

2416
02:06:03,500 --> 02:06:05,500
Fairburn around board.

2417
02:06:05,500 --> 02:06:07,500
Fairburn around across that Islander line.

2418
02:06:07,500 --> 02:06:08,500
Fairburn cuts and shoots.

2419
02:06:08,500 --> 02:06:09,500
Score!

2420
02:06:09,500 --> 02:06:15,500
Beautiful move.

2421
02:06:15,500 --> 02:06:17,500
A single effort by Billy Faber.

2422
02:06:17,500 --> 02:06:22,500
He carried from center through the entire Islander club.

2423
02:06:22,500 --> 02:06:25,500
And the Rangers are finally on the board.

2424
02:06:25,500 --> 02:06:28,500
And we shall see if that turns out to be a big goal.

2425
02:06:28,500 --> 02:06:30,500
They now 12-3-1.

2426
02:06:30,500 --> 02:06:32,500
What else can you say about beautiful on that break?

2427
02:06:32,500 --> 02:06:36,500
I can't believe it. Dennis Patton, Jerry Ha just opened up.

2428
02:06:36,500 --> 02:06:37,500
Let him go through.

2429
02:06:37,500 --> 02:06:39,500
Patton got a stick on the puck.

2430
02:06:39,500 --> 02:06:40,500
Fairburn just got through.

2431
02:06:40,500 --> 02:06:42,500
Able to pick up the puck again.

2432
02:06:42,500 --> 02:06:44,500
Billy Smith coming out.

2433
02:06:44,500 --> 02:06:46,500
Fairburn going to the backhand to put it in.

2434
02:06:46,500 --> 02:06:49,500
Last night Fairburn going to the forehand on a similar situation

2435
02:06:49,500 --> 02:06:52,500
on four of a breakaway while the Rangers were a man down.

2436
02:06:52,500 --> 02:06:54,500
And deep goaltender Glenn Resch this time.

2437
02:06:54,500 --> 02:06:58,500
He goes to the backhand after skating through the entire team.

2438
02:06:58,500 --> 02:07:02,500
And you will now hear much from this capacity crowd.

2439
02:07:02,500 --> 02:07:05,500
But the Rangers finally able to beat Billy Smith.

2440
02:07:05,500 --> 02:07:09,500
For Fairburn his 10th goal lifetime against the New York Islanders.

2441
02:07:09,500 --> 02:07:12,500
He's the leading ranger score against the Islanders.

2442
02:07:12,500 --> 02:07:13,500
Face off controlled by the Islanders.

2443
02:07:13,500 --> 02:07:15,500
Dave Lewis loses control.

2444
02:07:15,500 --> 02:07:16,500
Gilberto takes it away.

2445
02:07:16,500 --> 02:07:17,500
He loses control.

2446
02:07:17,500 --> 02:07:18,500
Moves, spins it center.

2447
02:07:18,500 --> 02:07:20,500
Moves past Park and dumps it in.

2448
02:07:20,500 --> 02:07:21,500
Right side of Coquemin.

2449
02:07:21,500 --> 02:07:23,500
15 minutes remaining.

2450
02:07:23,500 --> 02:07:24,500
Bird, period.

2451
02:07:24,500 --> 02:07:25,500
Beverly back forward.

2452
02:07:25,500 --> 02:07:26,500
And Beverly starts up.

2453
02:07:26,500 --> 02:07:27,500
Beverly up to center.

2454
02:07:27,500 --> 02:07:28,500
Beverly shoots in.

2455
02:07:28,500 --> 02:07:30,500
Right side of Smith.

2456
02:07:30,500 --> 02:07:32,500
Smith then bangs it off the board.

2457
02:07:32,500 --> 02:07:33,500
Beverly keeps it alive.

2458
02:07:33,500 --> 02:07:37,500
A pass out and a set-up by Parisi leading a 3-on-1 for the Islanders.

2459
02:07:37,500 --> 02:07:39,500
Parisi with 2-on-1 to the ranger line.

2460
02:07:39,500 --> 02:07:40,500
Goes over the shot.

2461
02:07:40,500 --> 02:07:42,500
Score!

2462
02:07:42,500 --> 02:07:45,500
Eddie Coquemin trying to make the club save.

2463
02:07:45,500 --> 02:07:48,500
And it whizzed right by him through his left.

2464
02:07:48,500 --> 02:07:49,500
He panned out the shot.

2465
02:07:49,500 --> 02:07:53,500
And the Islanders come roaring back and lead it 4-1.

2466
02:07:53,500 --> 02:07:54,500
The Rangers down.

2467
02:07:54,500 --> 02:07:56,500
There's an offside call on the play, mom.

2468
02:07:56,500 --> 02:07:58,500
No goal.

2469
02:07:58,500 --> 02:08:01,500
Coquemin even yelled something at Parisi.

2470
02:08:01,500 --> 02:08:04,500
Rangers gambling on a play with Nick Beverly to the best.

2471
02:08:04,500 --> 02:08:05,500
They're going in deep.

2472
02:08:05,500 --> 02:08:06,500
They are opening up.

2473
02:08:06,500 --> 02:08:08,500
And Beverly passing it back.

2474
02:08:08,500 --> 02:08:10,500
Setting up the 3-on-1.

2475
02:08:10,500 --> 02:08:11,500
A roll from the crowd.

2476
02:08:11,500 --> 02:08:15,500
Now the announcement that there is no goal on that offside.

2477
02:08:15,500 --> 02:08:19,500
A fair-burned goal assisted by Kachuk and Greshner at 4-44.

2478
02:08:19,500 --> 02:08:20,500
Half a face off.

2479
02:08:20,500 --> 02:08:22,500
Beverly a lead for Vickers.

2480
02:08:22,500 --> 02:08:23,500
It is too deep.

2481
02:08:23,500 --> 02:08:24,500
Marshall picks it up.

2482
02:08:24,500 --> 02:08:26,500
Marshall a hit now for Grew.

2483
02:08:26,500 --> 02:08:28,500
This pass suited by Coquemin.

2484
02:08:28,500 --> 02:08:29,500
Coquemin goes in a drive.

2485
02:08:29,500 --> 02:08:31,500
Safe, man, off the chest of Smith.

2486
02:08:31,500 --> 02:08:32,500
Pumped high in the air.

2487
02:08:32,500 --> 02:08:33,500
Ends up in the corner.

2488
02:08:33,500 --> 02:08:34,500
Lewis tries to clear it around.

2489
02:08:34,500 --> 02:08:35,500
Kept in by Park.

2490
02:08:35,500 --> 02:08:38,500
Park tries to set up Coquemin.

2491
02:08:38,500 --> 02:08:39,500
But it's knocked away.

2492
02:08:39,500 --> 02:08:40,500
Picked up at center by Parisi.

2493
02:08:40,500 --> 02:08:41,500
He's up to the Ranger line.

2494
02:08:41,500 --> 02:08:44,500
A back pass is loose along the boards.

2495
02:08:44,500 --> 02:08:46,500
No one there for the Islanders.

2496
02:08:46,500 --> 02:08:47,500
Now it's sent to the near corner.

2497
02:08:47,500 --> 02:08:49,500
Grew and Park hit together.

2498
02:08:49,500 --> 02:08:50,500
They both overstepped.

2499
02:08:50,500 --> 02:08:51,500
Parisi after now.

2500
02:08:51,500 --> 02:08:53,500
Gets it off to Lewis at the near stand.

2501
02:08:53,500 --> 02:08:55,500
A centering feed broken up by the Rangers.

2502
02:08:55,500 --> 02:08:56,500
It goes out of center.

2503
02:08:56,500 --> 02:08:58,500
Jobehr up to the out of the line.

2504
02:08:58,500 --> 02:08:59,500
Jobehr loses control.

2505
02:08:59,500 --> 02:09:01,500
Pump is loose in front of the net.

2506
02:09:01,500 --> 02:09:02,500
Vickers comes up with it.

2507
02:09:02,500 --> 02:09:03,500
Spins off to the corner.

2508
02:09:03,500 --> 02:09:05,500
Plans to set up Jobehr.

2509
02:09:05,500 --> 02:09:06,500
But it's broken up by Parker.

2510
02:09:06,500 --> 02:09:08,500
Marshall gets back behind the out of the net.

2511
02:09:08,500 --> 02:09:10,500
Sets to the far corner.

2512
02:09:10,500 --> 02:09:11,500
A battle for it there.

2513
02:09:11,500 --> 02:09:13,500
Grew and Park looks to clear.

2514
02:09:13,500 --> 02:09:14,500
And he does.

2515
02:09:14,500 --> 02:09:15,500
Shoots it all the way down.

2516
02:09:15,500 --> 02:09:17,500
Across the Ranger blue line.

2517
02:09:17,500 --> 02:09:18,500
Across the goal line.

2518
02:09:18,500 --> 02:09:19,500
Greshner back for it.

2519
02:09:19,500 --> 02:09:21,500
Both clubs change on the fly.

2520
02:09:21,500 --> 02:09:23,500
Rangers have really picked up the tempo now.

2521
02:09:23,500 --> 02:09:24,500
Greshner up to center.

2522
02:09:24,500 --> 02:09:26,500
Around St. Laurent.

2523
02:09:26,500 --> 02:09:27,500
He's up to the out of the line.

2524
02:09:27,500 --> 02:09:29,500
Firtles past Dennis Pumpkin.

2525
02:09:29,500 --> 02:09:30,500
Past the center of Lewis.

2526
02:09:30,500 --> 02:09:32,500
Who has sent Spawling into the corner.

2527
02:09:32,500 --> 02:09:33,500
Hart after it.

2528
02:09:33,500 --> 02:09:35,500
He and Greshner turn each other around.

2529
02:09:35,500 --> 02:09:36,500
The puck is still loose.

2530
02:09:36,500 --> 02:09:38,500
Pumpkin past the pen and cannot.

2531
02:09:38,500 --> 02:09:39,500
Kachukas after it.

2532
02:09:39,500 --> 02:09:41,500
Has it knocked aside by Hart.

2533
02:09:41,500 --> 02:09:42,500
Hart looks to clear.

2534
02:09:42,500 --> 02:09:43,500
And he does.

2535
02:09:43,500 --> 02:09:44,500
Shoots it all the way down.

2536
02:09:44,500 --> 02:09:46,500
Icing it across that Ranger goal line.

2537
02:09:46,500 --> 02:09:48,500
But right back to make the touch.

2538
02:09:48,500 --> 02:09:49,500
And we get the whistle.

2539
02:09:49,500 --> 02:09:51,500
Rangers have certainly come alive.

2540
02:09:51,500 --> 02:09:53,500
But time is not on their side.

2541
02:09:53,500 --> 02:09:55,500
13 minutes 3 seconds.

2542
02:09:55,500 --> 02:09:56,500
Remedding third period.

2543
02:09:56,500 --> 02:09:58,500
And the Islanders lead at 3-1.

2544
02:09:58,500 --> 02:09:59,500
The Islanders gonna play.

2545
02:09:59,500 --> 02:10:01,500
Ice the puck situation.

2546
02:10:01,500 --> 02:10:02,500
Hart icing it then.

2547
02:10:02,500 --> 02:10:03,500
Prior to that.

2548
02:10:03,500 --> 02:10:06,500
Hartman tried to ice it down the other side.

2549
02:10:06,500 --> 02:10:07,500
Marat got a glove on it.

2550
02:10:07,500 --> 02:10:08,500
Felfying the ice.

2551
02:10:08,500 --> 02:10:10,500
And the puck did go down.

2552
02:10:10,500 --> 02:10:11,500
The Rangers coming in.

2553
02:10:11,500 --> 02:10:13,500
Paul is losing his stick in his own.

2554
02:10:13,500 --> 02:10:14,500
And the puck actually came to him.

2555
02:10:14,500 --> 02:10:16,500
He tried to pick up his stick.

2556
02:10:16,500 --> 02:10:18,500
By that time the Islanders checked it off him.

2557
02:10:18,500 --> 02:10:21,500
And it's Brandon Kachurk now on this face off.

2558
02:10:21,500 --> 02:10:24,500
To the left side of the Islander net.

2559
02:10:24,500 --> 02:10:26,500
Kachurk the center for Polos and Faber.

2560
02:10:26,500 --> 02:10:29,500
Kachurk and Marat are back.

2561
02:10:31,500 --> 02:10:35,500
A tremendous ending to what has been a tremendous series.

2562
02:10:35,500 --> 02:10:36,500
Off the face.

2563
02:10:36,500 --> 02:10:37,500
Huck loose at the circle.

2564
02:10:37,500 --> 02:10:39,500
Gillies controls for the Islanders.

2565
02:10:39,500 --> 02:10:40,500
And clears it out of the zone.

2566
02:10:40,500 --> 02:10:42,500
Billy Harris takes it at center.

2567
02:10:42,500 --> 02:10:43,500
He's grouped off the play.

2568
02:10:43,500 --> 02:10:46,500
Huck is loose now at the Ranger line.

2569
02:10:46,500 --> 02:10:47,500
Greshner backboard.

2570
02:10:47,500 --> 02:10:48,500
And ahead it goes to Kachurk.

2571
02:10:48,500 --> 02:10:50,500
Kachurk spinning at center.

2572
02:10:50,500 --> 02:10:51,500
Back pass Greshner.

2573
02:10:51,500 --> 02:10:53,500
He carries and then shoots once.

2574
02:10:53,500 --> 02:10:54,500
Stick save made by Smith.

2575
02:10:54,500 --> 02:10:56,500
It bounce to the near board.

2576
02:10:56,500 --> 02:10:57,500
Kachurk can't keep it.

2577
02:10:57,500 --> 02:10:58,500
Has to move to center.

2578
02:10:58,500 --> 02:10:59,500
He's bothered by Bourne.

2579
02:10:59,500 --> 02:11:00,500
Now Kachurk spins.

2580
02:11:00,500 --> 02:11:01,500
Back pass Greshner.

2581
02:11:01,500 --> 02:11:03,500
Greshner rolls it in.

2582
02:11:03,500 --> 02:11:05,500
Rangers desperately want that second goal.

2583
02:11:05,500 --> 02:11:07,500
Which would change this game around completely.

2584
02:11:07,500 --> 02:11:09,500
Huck loose back behind the Islander net.

2585
02:11:09,500 --> 02:11:11,500
Dennis Putnam feeds ahead for Gillies.

2586
02:11:11,500 --> 02:11:12,500
And Gillies clears it out.

2587
02:11:12,500 --> 02:11:14,500
Marat stops it at center.

2588
02:11:14,500 --> 02:11:15,500
Here's Marat.

2589
02:11:15,500 --> 02:11:17,500
Greshner in left side of Smith.

2590
02:11:17,500 --> 02:11:18,500
Gillies after now.

2591
02:11:18,500 --> 02:11:20,500
So all Rangers here third period.

2592
02:11:20,500 --> 02:11:21,500
Gillies winds it around.

2593
02:11:21,500 --> 02:11:22,500
Polis and Dennis.

2594
02:11:22,500 --> 02:11:24,500
Putnam come together at the far side.

2595
02:11:24,500 --> 02:11:25,500
Bourne is over there now.

2596
02:11:25,500 --> 02:11:27,500
Putnam able to work it free.

2597
02:11:27,500 --> 02:11:28,500
Putnam maneuvers back behind the net.

2598
02:11:28,500 --> 02:11:29,500
He's tied up.

2599
02:11:29,500 --> 02:11:30,500
Polis takes it away.

2600
02:11:30,500 --> 02:11:32,500
Polis moves to the far corner.

2601
02:11:32,500 --> 02:11:33,500
He's checked there by Bourne.

2602
02:11:33,500 --> 02:11:34,500
Bourne pushes it along the board.

2603
02:11:34,500 --> 02:11:35,500
Then Putnam works it free.

2604
02:11:35,500 --> 02:11:36,500
Wides it around.

2605
02:11:36,500 --> 02:11:38,500
Gillies and Greshner come together.

2606
02:11:38,500 --> 02:11:39,500
Gillies able to slap it out of the zone.

2607
02:11:39,500 --> 02:11:40,500
Twelve minutes remaining.

2608
02:11:40,500 --> 02:11:41,500
Third period.

2609
02:11:41,500 --> 02:11:42,500
Fairburn from center.

2610
02:11:42,500 --> 02:11:43,500
Up across the out of the line.

2611
02:11:43,500 --> 02:11:44,500
Shoots one.

2612
02:11:44,500 --> 02:11:45,500
Right side of the net.

2613
02:11:45,500 --> 02:11:46,500
It is doubled up by Smith.

2614
02:11:46,500 --> 02:11:49,500
And he decides to hold on to stop Flair.

2615
02:11:49,500 --> 02:11:51,500
Let's pause right here for this message.

2616
02:11:51,500 --> 02:11:54,500
Alka-Seltzer brings you a message from the old one too.

2617
02:11:54,500 --> 02:11:55,500
Wait up.

2618
02:11:55,500 --> 02:11:58,500
Your first flat in fifteen years.

2619
02:11:58,500 --> 02:12:00,500
So you're holding up traffic.

2620
02:12:00,500 --> 02:12:02,500
Your wife is waiting with your favorite dinner.

2621
02:12:02,500 --> 02:12:04,500
Burnt lasagna.

2622
02:12:04,500 --> 02:12:07,500
We'll be right there with the old one too.

2623
02:12:09,500 --> 02:12:10,500
Alka-Seltzer.

2624
02:12:10,500 --> 02:12:12,500
Let's get out of here.

2625
02:12:12,500 --> 02:12:14,500
For aches and pains with upset stomach.

2626
02:12:14,500 --> 02:12:17,500
Try Alka-Seltzer with specially buffered aspirin plus antacids.

2627
02:12:17,500 --> 02:12:18,500
Used only as directed.

2628
02:12:18,500 --> 02:12:21,500
It gives the old one too, the old one too.

2629
02:12:21,500 --> 02:12:22,500
Face off now.

2630
02:12:22,500 --> 02:12:24,500
Right side of the island of net.

2631
02:12:24,500 --> 02:12:26,500
Sanderson and St. Laurent on the draw.

2632
02:12:26,500 --> 02:12:27,500
Sent in front of the net.

2633
02:12:27,500 --> 02:12:28,500
Knocked behind the goal.

2634
02:12:28,500 --> 02:12:29,500
Middleton can't control.

2635
02:12:29,500 --> 02:12:30,500
Marshall winds it around.

2636
02:12:30,500 --> 02:12:32,500
And Howard dumps it back at center.

2637
02:12:32,500 --> 02:12:34,500
Benedict takes it there for the Rangers.

2638
02:12:34,500 --> 02:12:36,500
Looses on a full track to St. Laurent.

2639
02:12:36,500 --> 02:12:37,500
He's in across the range of line.

2640
02:12:37,500 --> 02:12:39,500
A drive stick save made by document.

2641
02:12:39,500 --> 02:12:41,500
Sanderson on the rebound.

2642
02:12:41,500 --> 02:12:42,500
Whips it off the boards.

2643
02:12:42,500 --> 02:12:43,500
For Middleton and the Rangers start up.

2644
02:12:43,500 --> 02:12:44,500
Middleton to center.

2645
02:12:44,500 --> 02:12:45,500
Court from behind by St. Laurent.

2646
02:12:45,500 --> 02:12:47,500
Who poke checks it away.

2647
02:12:47,500 --> 02:12:48,500
He shoots it in.

2648
02:12:48,500 --> 02:12:49,500
Left side of document.

2649
02:12:49,500 --> 02:12:50,500
Bemely back forward now.

2650
02:12:50,500 --> 02:12:51,500
Wides it around for Middleton.

2651
02:12:51,500 --> 02:12:53,500
Middleton looks to start up.

2652
02:12:53,500 --> 02:12:54,500
He's stopped by Lewis.

2653
02:12:54,500 --> 02:12:55,500
Dumps it right back in.

2654
02:12:55,500 --> 02:12:56,500
Clark after the long one.

2655
02:12:56,500 --> 02:12:57,500
Howard may come together.

2656
02:12:57,500 --> 02:12:58,500
Howard snaps it around the board.

2657
02:12:58,500 --> 02:12:59,500
Nicegram after it now.

2658
02:12:59,500 --> 02:13:01,500
Nicegram cuts to the near side.

2659
02:13:01,500 --> 02:13:02,500
Out to the point.

2660
02:13:02,500 --> 02:13:03,500
It goes to Lewis.

2661
02:13:03,500 --> 02:13:04,500
He turns and shoots.

2662
02:13:04,500 --> 02:13:05,500
It's blocked by the state of Bemely.

2663
02:13:05,500 --> 02:13:06,500
Kept in by St. Laurent.

2664
02:13:06,500 --> 02:13:07,500
Throws it out to the court.

2665
02:13:07,500 --> 02:13:08,500
Innocent by Middleton.

2666
02:13:08,500 --> 02:13:11,500
To Urban on the left wing.

2667
02:13:11,500 --> 02:13:12,500
Urban carries across the islander line.

2668
02:13:12,500 --> 02:13:13,500
Angle drive.

2669
02:13:13,500 --> 02:13:14,500
It's wide on the rebound.

2670
02:13:14,500 --> 02:13:15,500
It comes flying to the near side.

2671
02:13:15,500 --> 02:13:16,500
Howard looks to clear.

2672
02:13:16,500 --> 02:13:17,500
And he cannot.

2673
02:13:17,500 --> 02:13:18,500
Dreschner keeps it.

2674
02:13:18,500 --> 02:13:19,500
And he's checked on the play.

2675
02:13:19,500 --> 02:13:20,500
Now stick check by Lewis.

2676
02:13:20,500 --> 02:13:21,500
He's turned it all the way down.

2677
02:13:21,500 --> 02:13:22,500
Across the Ranger goal line.

2678
02:13:22,500 --> 02:13:23,500
Back forward Marot.

2679
02:13:23,500 --> 02:13:24,500
And he makes the touch.

2680
02:13:24,500 --> 02:13:25,500
We got a whistle for icing.

2681
02:13:25,500 --> 02:13:26,500
10-51.

2682
02:13:26,500 --> 02:13:27,500
Romantic third period.

2683
02:13:27,500 --> 02:13:28,500
Islanders lead 3-1.

2684
02:13:28,500 --> 02:13:29,500
On triggers by Dennis Pumbin.

2685
02:13:29,500 --> 02:13:30,500
One on a power play.

2686
02:13:30,500 --> 02:13:31,500
One short half.

2687
02:13:31,500 --> 02:13:38,500
Scott Gilley scored the other.

2688
02:13:38,500 --> 02:13:45,500
And here on the third Billy Pabra had a great individual effort assisted by Kuchuk and Dreschner.

2689
02:13:45,500 --> 02:13:46,500
4-4-4.

2690
02:13:46,500 --> 02:13:47,500
And Mark that gave them the life.

2691
02:13:47,500 --> 02:13:48,500
But they've gone five minutes without scoring another goal.

2692
02:13:48,500 --> 02:13:49,500
They've been putting the pressure on the islanders except for this last shift.

2693
02:13:49,500 --> 02:13:50,500
The defensive Ron Dreschner making a good effort keeping the puck in with three islanders

2694
02:13:50,500 --> 02:13:51,500
around him.

2695
02:13:51,500 --> 02:13:52,500
And the islanders finally ice the puck.

2696
02:13:52,500 --> 02:13:53,500
The faceoff is over.

2697
02:13:53,500 --> 02:13:54,500
The defense is in the lead.

2698
02:13:54,500 --> 02:13:55,500
The defense is in the lead.

2699
02:13:55,500 --> 02:13:56,500
The defense is in the lead.

2700
02:13:56,500 --> 02:13:57,500
The defense is in the lead.

2701
02:13:57,500 --> 02:13:58,500
The defense is in the lead.

2702
02:13:58,500 --> 02:13:59,500
The defense is in the lead.

2703
02:13:59,500 --> 02:14:00,500
The defense is in the lead.

2704
02:14:00,500 --> 02:14:01,500
The defense is in the lead.

2705
02:14:01,500 --> 02:14:02,500
The pace of the left of Smith right now.

2706
02:14:02,500 --> 02:14:03,500
It'll be a retirement west ball.

2707
02:14:03,500 --> 02:14:07,540
On the floor as linesman Neil India.

2708
02:14:07,540 --> 02:14:09,060
Delar presented bringing the puck.

2709
02:14:09,060 --> 02:14:11,980
Retail on with Pickers and Joe Baird.

2710
02:14:11,980 --> 02:14:12,980
K entertainment.

2711
02:14:12,980 --> 02:14:13,980
Our next.

2712
02:14:13,980 --> 02:14:14,980
Here's the face.

2713
02:14:14,980 --> 02:14:25,620
The art of the heart winds it around centro merchandise all cut off.

2714
02:14:25,620 --> 02:14:27,800
The spirit picture.

2715
02:14:27,800 --> 02:14:34,220
raising

2716
02:14:39,000 --> 02:14:53,100
the

2717
02:14:53,140 --> 02:14:54,820
last

2718
02:14:54,820 --> 02:14:59,860
lighting up for the face off, circle to the left side of Joel Tender to the waste bin.

2719
02:15:00,820 --> 02:15:06,140
Buck is dropped, sent back behind the out of the goal, Hart and Rotel chase, Hart comes up with it,

2720
02:15:06,140 --> 02:15:08,020
Hart looks to clear out and he does.

2721
02:15:08,020 --> 02:15:10,540
Sets the rest ball at center and he slaps one in.

2722
02:15:10,540 --> 02:15:15,300
Right side of the ranger at Joubert, and Parisi come together, Hart able to keep in,

2723
02:15:15,300 --> 02:15:19,020
sets behind the ranger Goliath, Joubert a battle there with Gruent,

2724
02:15:19,020 --> 02:15:21,140
Gruent kicks it off to the near corner,

2725
02:15:21,140 --> 02:15:25,100
they continue to turn each other around and Hart checked by Marotte on Gruent,

2726
02:15:25,100 --> 02:15:26,980
Marotte works it free, winds it around the board,

2727
02:15:26,980 --> 02:15:30,260
press ball takes, shoots it in front, sprawling save made by Chalkamid,

2728
02:15:30,260 --> 02:15:33,260
and Greshner wrestles it free, goes back behind his net.

2729
02:15:33,260 --> 02:15:37,340
We now have 10 minutes for that incurred current and the ranger is down 3-1.

2730
02:15:37,340 --> 02:15:41,620
Here's Riquel starting up, has to put on the bridge, goes cross-ice for Marotte.

2731
02:15:41,620 --> 02:15:47,300
Marotte has delivered Bastian to center, a hit for Rappel, loses control and Hart cuts it away.

2732
02:15:47,300 --> 02:15:51,620
Sends to center, Marotte back for it now, Marotte backstates in his own end,

2733
02:15:51,620 --> 02:15:54,380
a hit for Greshner, wheeling out center ice now.

2734
02:15:54,380 --> 02:15:57,900
He leaves Rotel at the out of the line, Rotel cuts to the far board,

2735
02:15:57,900 --> 02:16:00,860
throws it ahead for Vickers, chases it down, centers for Greshner,

2736
02:16:00,860 --> 02:16:03,180
lines it up, shoots, and it goes wide.

2737
02:16:03,180 --> 02:16:06,460
On the way back into the pen at the far side, he goes cross-ice,

2738
02:16:06,460 --> 02:16:08,700
Joubert did not handle it, Gruent does,

2739
02:16:08,700 --> 02:16:13,020
Gruent is hept in by Greshner, Greshner and Joubert battling with Gruent in the corner,

2740
02:16:13,020 --> 02:16:16,460
and finally Gruent works it free and shoots it all the way down.

2741
02:16:16,460 --> 02:16:21,300
Marotte back for it now at center, a hit for Greshner, Greshner makes the turn,

2742
02:16:21,300 --> 02:16:24,220
Greshner ahead for Tuchuk, as the Vickers change on the go,

2743
02:16:24,220 --> 02:16:27,340
Tuchuk cross the slipper pass for Irwin, broken up by Westpaw,

2744
02:16:27,340 --> 02:16:29,580
but Tuchuk sends back behind the out of the net,

2745
02:16:29,580 --> 02:16:34,060
and as Postman rolls it around, Gillies and Faber come together in the corner, Faber works it free,

2746
02:16:34,060 --> 02:16:37,020
Faber cuts in front, a pass for Tuchuk, knocked away,

2747
02:16:37,020 --> 02:16:39,580
and then covered up by the go-tenner, Billy Sten,

2748
02:16:39,580 --> 02:16:42,860
and that will make for a face-off deep in islander ice.

2749
02:16:42,860 --> 02:16:46,780
You know, only Easton has air shuttle service to Boston and Washington,

2750
02:16:46,780 --> 02:16:51,260

02:16:56,380 --> 02:16:59,500

Here's the face-off, deep in islander ice,

2760
02:17:16,380 --> 02:17:19,020
loose out the circle, still loose, goes up in the air,

2761
02:17:19,020 --> 02:17:21,900
Faber cuts it down, sends to the corner to Irvin.

2762
02:17:21,900 --> 02:17:24,460
Irvin looks to set up back behind the out of the net.

2763
02:17:24,460 --> 02:17:26,860
He is back down the play, now works it free,

2764
02:17:26,860 --> 02:17:30,220
in front Faber and shot blocked, Irvin with the rebound on the corner.

2765
02:17:30,220 --> 02:17:33,420
Irvin throws it in front, Faber and Kuchuk did not get the stick down,

2766
02:17:33,420 --> 02:17:37,900
Bevelich gets it right back past Kuchuk, he shoots, it is blocked, Kuchuk takes it back,

2767
02:17:37,900 --> 02:17:40,620
backstabes away from Thorn, rolls in close to Faber,

2768
02:17:40,620 --> 02:17:42,620
and he shoots, it is blocked by Lewis.

2769
02:17:42,620 --> 02:17:45,180
Faber and Afton in the corner, takes a good check from Gillies,

2771
02:17:47,660 --> 02:17:50,780
but it goes wide, Bevelich up with it, his pass deflects out of the zone,

2772
02:17:50,780 --> 02:17:52,300
off the stick of Billy Harris.

2773
02:17:52,300 --> 02:17:55,100
Rangers putting tremendous pressure on Billy Smith now,

2774
02:17:55,100 --> 02:17:57,500
a lot of blocked shots by that islander back line,

2775
02:17:57,500 --> 02:18:01,420
now park in his own air, bounded by Harris, goes cross-nice to Bevelich.

2776
02:18:01,420 --> 02:18:04,780
Ahead now for Kuchuk, right wing beats Faber, he's for the out of the line,

2777
02:18:04,780 --> 02:18:07,180
he breaks into the corner, rolls in close to Irvin,

2778
02:18:07,180 --> 02:18:09,660
he's booked off the play, Irvin with it back past the block,

2779
02:18:09,660 --> 02:18:12,140
broken up by Howitt, who clears it out of the zone,

2780
02:18:12,140 --> 02:18:14,060
Billy Harris picks it up in center for the islanders,

2781
02:18:14,060 --> 02:18:16,540
moving in on Beverly after range of line, has it crowded,

2782
02:18:16,540 --> 02:18:20,300
it's Saint-Laurent, gives to him, his shot is a stick save, wide shot given,

2783
02:18:20,300 --> 02:18:23,020
now Sanderson starts up with it, Sanderson to center,

2784
02:18:23,020 --> 02:18:26,140
throws it too far ahead of him, and it's knocked the other way by Marshall,

2785
02:18:26,140 --> 02:18:29,340
and Sanderson rolls it in, allowing for line changes by both clubs,

2786
02:18:29,340 --> 02:18:32,300
Saint-Laurent dumps it out of the zone, played up center by Breschner,

2787
02:18:32,300 --> 02:18:34,860
Breschner looks to set up Sanderson, but it's knocked away,

2788
02:18:34,860 --> 02:18:37,980
Sanderson then recovers, Leith Polis, back past Middleton,

2789
02:18:37,980 --> 02:18:41,980
Middleton cuts it, he's hooked off the play, Polis and Huck come together at the far corner,

2790
02:18:41,980 --> 02:18:46,220
now Saint-Laurent comes over, falls on the puck, Middleton looks to work it free,

2791
02:18:46,220 --> 02:18:50,300
Polis does, Howitt after at the far corner, Howitt comes up at the loose puck,

2792
02:18:50,300 --> 02:18:54,460
and Howitt clears it out of the way now, it's stopped in front of an F by Chalkamann,

2793
02:18:54,460 --> 02:18:58,380
Chalkamann sets out to center, ten of Breschner, but the pass off to Mark,

2794
02:18:58,380 --> 02:19:00,700
Middleton recovers, he's in it past the islander there,

2795
02:19:00,700 --> 02:19:05,020
Wendell, and he's hooked on the play, cuts off the shot, that's short, and a penalty pass,

2796
02:19:05,020 --> 02:19:08,460
Middleton was hauled down, he was hooked on the play,

2797
02:19:08,460 --> 02:19:11,180
and the Rangers will have the man of the match for it here,

2798
02:19:11,180 --> 02:19:15,900
they are down 3-1, seven minutes, fifteen seconds, with that extra foul.

2799
02:19:15,900 --> 02:19:19,020
With Middleton with the move that he's been doing all year,

2800
02:19:19,020 --> 02:19:22,700
almost got through, Jerry Hart pulled him down, picked up the penalty,

2801
02:19:22,700 --> 02:19:26,940
he did not get through for the shot, however he did draw the penalty, and this is it,

2802
02:19:26,940 --> 02:19:32,140
this is a power play the Rangers have to score upon, or else forget about the season.

2803
02:19:32,140 --> 02:19:40,540
12.47, time of the hook on Jerry Hart, no question, son, we will look back at this game,

2804
02:19:42,380 --> 02:19:48,860
win or lose from the Ranger or islander point of view, this will be the sequence that we'll be

2805
02:19:48,860 --> 02:19:54,140
talking about, 7.13 remaining, third period, Rangers down 3-1, they have a face off, keep it

2806
02:19:54,140 --> 02:19:59,100
out of the ice, on the track, loose at the face off circle, take him by heading, and he clears

2807
02:19:59,100 --> 02:20:04,060
all the way down, Cochamont stops it, comes out, leaves it for Jobeir to his right side,

2808
02:20:04,060 --> 02:20:08,780
and Jobeir stops it, Jobeir out of his own, Jobeir to center, leaves Lattell,

2809
02:20:08,780 --> 02:20:13,020
ahead for Vickers across the out of the line, Vickers back past the park at the left point,

2810
02:20:13,020 --> 02:20:18,060
he sets up, now close to the corner to Vickers, back it goes to Jobeir, Jobeir leads Middleton

2811
02:20:18,060 --> 02:20:23,500
in close, he goes over the drive, save made, loose in front, and then it's cleared by the islanders,

2812
02:20:23,500 --> 02:20:30,140
into the crowd at the near side, that puck popped high in the air, Lattell lifted the stick as did

2813
02:20:30,140 --> 02:20:34,620
several of the islanders, and it was deflected to the crowd, that was Billy Smith who actually

2814
02:20:34,620 --> 02:20:39,580
batted it into the crowd, Maude, he made the save, it went up in the air, he and Lattell swinging for it,

2815
02:20:39,580 --> 02:20:45,500
and Smith with the big stick, the big fat part of the stick, batted it away and up into the crowd,

2816
02:20:46,220 --> 02:20:49,580
face off, left side of Smith, west ball on Lattell on the strong,

2817
02:20:49,580 --> 02:20:54,140
lines but Armstrong getting set to drop the puck against someone, jumped the gun, now puck dropped

2818
02:20:54,140 --> 02:20:57,580
center of the corner and out of the ice, Lewis after it, ball to the islanders, batted up by

2819
02:20:57,580 --> 02:21:02,540
Lattell, winds it around the boards, ends up in the crowd at the far side of players call.

2820
02:21:02,540 --> 02:21:07,020
And Maude, on this power play so far, in the offensive zone, John Lattell has lost two

2821
02:21:07,020 --> 02:21:14,460
consecutive face off, the Rangers in as the Lattell line was in earlier, on two line shifts ago,

2822
02:21:14,460 --> 02:21:19,420
Lattell again lost about two face off, islanders capitalizing on winning those face off,

2823
02:21:19,420 --> 02:21:26,860
on the face off, back behind, Lewis, comes to park at the far side, into the corner now,

2824
02:21:26,860 --> 02:21:30,380
Pickers, sets up, throws in front for Fairburn, he scores!

2825
02:21:38,380 --> 02:21:42,380
The puck was shot down by Fairburn and it got it over the shoulder of Smith,

2826
02:21:42,380 --> 02:21:49,660
and this game has turned around 6.33 remaining for a period and the Rangers who were trailing three

2827
02:21:49,660 --> 02:21:56,060
numbers, now trailing three terms. All the pressure that was on the Rangers, they came back and tied

2828
02:21:56,060 --> 02:22:02,220
it and the blow started a clear, intended by the islanders and Brad Park stopped it but quickly

2829
02:22:02,220 --> 02:22:06,380
threw the puck into Victor's, did not waste any time, just shot it right back into Victor's who

2830
02:22:06,380 --> 02:22:10,860
was in the left corner, Pickers just waited, waited, the islanders looked at the points,

2831
02:22:10,860 --> 02:22:15,900
they, Pickers waited for Fairburn to cruise into the slot, and a beautiful pass by Steve

2832
02:22:15,900 --> 02:22:22,300
Vickers on Fairburn's stick. Time of the power play goal, 13.27 for Fairburn, second of the night.

2833
02:22:23,260 --> 02:22:30,140
Number four of the playoffs, you, I believe, get an idea of what is happening here in Madison Square

2834
02:22:30,140 --> 02:22:37,900
Garden, you can hear the crowd, they are going berserk at this moment. Rangers right back in

2835
02:22:37,900 --> 02:22:43,500
the hockey game, one of the keys, Sal, has been more ice time for Nick Beverly, he has really

2836
02:22:43,500 --> 02:22:49,500
settled things down. He has, Bob, he's a steady defenseman, he's even been gambling in this

2837
02:22:49,500 --> 02:22:54,700
second period, he penetrated deep with the Middleton play, he was on the ice with Middleton through

2838
02:22:54,700 --> 02:23:00,060
the playoff. Here's the face, controlled by the Rangers, Mark DeMevely, Beverly up to the center,

2839
02:23:00,060 --> 02:23:04,860
Beverly slaps it in, left side of Billy Smith, he comes out to clear, battered down by Gilberto

2840
02:23:04,860 --> 02:23:09,500
at the near side, throws to the corner to Raquel, Raquel stuck in with the play, score! Vickers,

2841
02:23:09,500 --> 02:23:11,900
put it in, and we're tied at three.

2842
02:23:11,900 --> 02:23:39,900
Steve Vickers, slamming it from the top of the night at his favorite position, as he took that pass with the two, and that time back there.

2843
02:23:39,900 --> 02:23:46,780
And the Rangers have tied it at three. And Roger Bear, keeping the puck in his own, Jerry Hart,

2844
02:23:46,780 --> 02:23:54,060
trying to clear it, Gilberto battered it down and up, waist level, got it to Raquel, and John Raquel,

2845
02:23:54,060 --> 02:24:00,540
so fancy, just walked out perfectly, Potsdam was unable to tie Vickers up, Vickers had it open

2846
02:24:00,540 --> 02:24:07,340
there to put the puck into, and the island has to be taken now. It was three, they played a terrific hockey game,

2847
02:24:07,340 --> 02:24:13,180
the first goal that the Rangers got sparked them, the penalty on a great play by Middleton kept it going,

2848
02:24:13,180 --> 02:24:18,300
the great pass by Vickers, and a great all-around effort by the entire line to tie it up.

2849
02:24:18,300 --> 02:24:24,860
So the guy who really has to be thinking is gold medalist Billy Smith, who was so brilliant over the first goal,

2850
02:24:24,860 --> 02:24:30,860
and now in big trouble with the Rangers on fire, they've tied it at three, they can prove a pace through

2851
02:24:30,860 --> 02:24:37,900
past Goodshead, a battle for across the island, Vickers and Cochran come together, and Lundman makes the touch,

2852
02:24:37,900 --> 02:24:44,540
we got a whistle for Isaac Gilberto, from his half of the ice, across the goal line. We have six minutes,

2853
02:24:44,540 --> 02:24:51,500
nine seconds remaining, third period, and the Rangers and islanders are now tied at three, three.

2854
02:24:52,620 --> 02:24:59,820
That second Ranger goal, fabled from Vickers and Park, 13.27, and 14 seconds later,

2855
02:24:59,820 --> 02:25:06,940
it is Vickers on the face-off, controlled by the Rangers, Joe Bad, he starts up, the center,

2856
02:25:06,940 --> 02:25:13,420
and puts it in the break, Gracie all over, pins it in, now Truen comes along, and they combine to freeze it,

2857
02:25:13,420 --> 02:25:20,780
so players stop. Billy Faber from Steve Vickers and Brad Park at 13.27, and 14 seconds later,

2858
02:25:20,780 --> 02:25:27,340
it's Vickers from Rotel and Drew Bad at 13.21, the hand for the Rotel line as they depart.

2859
02:25:27,340 --> 02:25:32,940
And Bob Jackman came up with two key saves when the players killed Villamur at 14.04,

2860
02:25:33,580 --> 02:25:37,900
and then they did spark them, I don't know, I have to say it was Billy Faber and Solo

2861
02:25:37,900 --> 02:25:43,900
that he put the through to score that first goal, and the fans are yelling Eddie, Eddie right now,

2862
02:25:45,180 --> 02:25:49,020
what a hockey game, we couldn't ask for anything more climatic than this,

2863
02:25:49,020 --> 02:25:55,500
anti-climatic, getting into sudden death situation, sudden death to eliminate a team from the playoffs.

2864
02:25:55,500 --> 02:26:04,860
Face-off coming up at center, Kachuk on with Irvin and Faber, and Marat Greshner are back going

2865
02:26:04,860 --> 02:26:09,500
against the Bourne-Harris-Billy's line, on the face-off, Marat controlled, back past Greshner,

2866
02:26:09,500 --> 02:26:15,020
this third period has been all Rangers ahead, Faber, Faber slides it ahead for Kachuk, bumped off the play,

2867
02:26:15,020 --> 02:26:19,740
Bourne is after it, looks to clear off, he cannot, and now does, that's the center, the winning here is

2868
02:26:19,740 --> 02:26:28,620
Marat Harris, but a slant save made by Gokkonen, Bourne keeps it alive, back past Gilly, Gilly slides it right

2869
02:26:28,620 --> 02:26:34,780
down to Gokkonen, Marat is after it now, Marat goes ahead for Kachuk, Kachuk up to center,

2870
02:26:34,780 --> 02:26:40,540
leaves Irvin on the left, he's across the outer line, puts on the brakes, makes the turn, and slaps wide,

2871
02:26:40,540 --> 02:26:45,020
on the rebound, Greshner takes it to the right, turns and slaps, stick to the side by Lewis,

2872
02:26:45,020 --> 02:26:50,540
Gills into the corner at the far side, Irvin is after it, loses to Marchal, winds it around the board,

2873
02:26:50,540 --> 02:26:55,660
gets in though at the near side by Faber, comes it back behind the net, round around by Marchal,

2874
02:26:55,660 --> 02:27:01,420
and further all the way down by Gillies, the out of this desperate club right now, once again,

2875
02:27:01,420 --> 02:27:06,700
racing for one track to make the touch, and we get the whistle, one thing in fact for a face-off,

2876
02:27:06,700 --> 02:27:12,220
keeping out of the race, five minutes, one second remaining, third period, Rangers are playing,

2877
02:27:12,220 --> 02:27:19,660
they are sparked up after trailing three-nothing, after being completely unplayed over the first two,

2878
02:27:19,660 --> 02:27:26,140
sensational goal-cunning by Billy Smith, and this game is turned around, Faber twice, and Vickers,

2879
02:27:26,140 --> 02:27:31,820
here on this third period, face-off now coming up left side of the out of the net,

2880
02:27:31,820 --> 02:27:37,180
Sanderson on with Poloson Middleton, on the face-off, Howard concludes, gets it out of the zone,

2881
02:27:37,180 --> 02:27:42,380
Howard and Park come together, Fevelly comes up with a puck ahead for Middleton over the states,

2882
02:27:42,380 --> 02:27:47,180
as recovered by Howard, a lead from Iceberg, after Ranger, back to Howard, it's off his states,

2883
02:27:47,180 --> 02:27:52,060
broken up by Park and the Rangers, start up, Park to center, ground by Iceberg, a lead for Middleton,

2884
02:27:52,060 --> 02:27:56,380
Middleton comes to the corner around Lewis, then Lewis, Nick, checks it away, winds it around the

2885
02:27:56,380 --> 02:28:01,100
board, Poloson cuts it off at the far side, he and Marchal slam each other, Sanderson works free,

2886
02:28:01,100 --> 02:28:09,260
he backhands, save, and it's lead up by Smith, Brad Park could not tee up that shot, as he turned

2887
02:28:09,260 --> 02:28:15,020
around, he had it on the backhand south, still able to get up a pretty good five, a great trouble in

2888
02:28:15,020 --> 02:28:20,060
front of an edge, the Rangers are jumping, they're all over the loose pucks, Billy Faber and Brian

2889
02:28:20,060 --> 02:28:25,980
to the islanders, icing it on the last opportunity, got to three loose pucks, this time Greg Kohler

2890
02:28:25,980 --> 02:28:30,140
going to the loose puck, Sanderson picking up the loose puck to get it out the park,

2891
02:28:30,140 --> 02:28:34,460
Park having it on the backhand, it's still deflected on the way in, and another shot dropping

2892
02:28:34,460 --> 02:28:39,340
right at Billy Smith's feet, face off left side of the islander, that 428th running third period,

2893
02:28:39,340 --> 02:28:44,780
Ratel and Westfall on the draw, loose out the circle, sent back behind the goal, Park is there,

2894
02:28:44,780 --> 02:28:49,020
Park chopped up by Ratel, swings it around the boards, and here's Westfall up to center,

2895
02:28:49,020 --> 02:28:53,180
Westfall then shoots in, it's to the right side of Tocqueville, and he comes out to stop,

2896
02:28:53,180 --> 02:28:57,660
please for Gilbert, now Gilbert back the other way, as the Rangers skate left to right, Gilbert

2897
02:28:57,660 --> 02:29:02,140
to center, tries to lead Ratel, it's too deep, it's across the goal line of the islanders, Park

2898
02:29:02,140 --> 02:29:06,940
bangs it off the board, Rangers deep end, Joe back, Paul Fiske, but it's almost headed by Vickers,

2899
02:29:06,940 --> 02:29:11,180
and intercepted by Westfall, a head to Groen at center, checked off the play by Park,

2900
02:29:11,180 --> 02:29:14,940
sends Vickers in across the islander line, Vickers from the angle, sends in from the

2901
02:29:14,940 --> 02:29:30,300
tail, it's turned around, come down the play, Park comes in, Smith covers it, and we get a whistle, and let's see if there's a penalty at the end, Bruce Hood talking it over with Steve Vickers, Hood started a point, and that held off,

2902
02:29:30,940 --> 02:29:35,420
Rangers were looking for a penalty, and nothing will be gone. Billy Smith ending up with a puck

2903
02:29:35,420 --> 02:29:39,980
outside the crease, and I think that's what Vickers asking about, no Ranger player around,

2904
02:29:39,980 --> 02:29:44,940
Ratel on the ice behind the net, and Smith after recording, I think he was aware of that too, because he

2905
02:29:44,940 --> 02:29:51,100
doubled up, and thought he was in pain to sort of disguise the play. Face off, left side of Smith,

2906
02:29:51,100 --> 02:29:57,020
3.51 remaining, third period, tied at three, on the draw, Park goes back behind the net,

2907
02:29:57,020 --> 02:30:01,500
checked by Ratel, leases it for Dennis Buckman, Buckman cuts to the corner, throws it in front of

2908
02:30:01,500 --> 02:30:07,340
his net to Hart, ahead now, Westfall, Snick handles it center, moving on Park, and shoots in, left side of

2909
02:30:07,340 --> 02:30:11,900
Chalk, and he steps behind, but has to stop, and whips it back the other way for Vickers,

2910
02:30:11,900 --> 02:30:15,740
Bill Vickers strips it out of his arm, Puffman after it, along with Ratel, they both over,

2911
02:30:15,740 --> 02:30:19,580
Skate Vickers comes up with it, he's up to be out of the line, back pass now to Hart, goes in,

2912
02:30:19,580 --> 02:30:25,020
and Smith wide, going for the upper left-hand corner, moves around the board, picked off by Westfall,

2913
02:30:25,020 --> 02:30:29,020
Westfall a back pass now for Hart, great opportunity for JoBart, took the good shot,

2914
02:30:29,020 --> 02:30:33,500
but it was just off the mark, here's Hart, up to center, Park sends ahead, and done it for

2915
02:30:33,500 --> 02:30:38,860
Parisi, and JoBart intercepts, all Rangers here in the third period, they are all over the puck,

2916
02:30:38,860 --> 02:30:43,660
Vickers now to center, he's up across the out of the line, cross-sides be broken up by Hart,

2917
02:30:43,660 --> 02:30:49,260
Prickles in front, taken by Couture, back pass for Faburn, broken up, and it's picked off by Marshall,

2918
02:30:49,260 --> 02:30:53,340
Marshall up to center-ice, a lead for Billy Harris on the right, to the Ranger line,

2919
02:30:53,340 --> 02:30:57,580
keeps Beverly, does not go for it, but it's sent back behind the net, Dockerman sweeps it to the

2920
02:30:57,580 --> 02:31:02,380
far side, Marshall hits it behind by Vickers, and Couture puts it free, leaves it free,

2921
02:31:02,380 --> 02:31:06,380
man, Hush, Dockerman back to Beverly, Beverly up to the out of the line, back pass for Couture,

2922
02:31:06,380 --> 02:31:10,860
back the other way it goes for Greshner, Greshner cuts into the slot, he's dumped down the play,

2923
02:31:10,860 --> 02:31:15,420
Wolfson in front, no penalty call, Rangers looking for bounty, a clock call, as Gillies

2924
02:31:15,420 --> 02:31:20,700
cross it all the way down, how those faces look there, Emil Francis dropping up and down on the

2925
02:31:20,700 --> 02:31:25,820
Ranger bench, looking for a penalty call, and with 2.24 remaining of his third period,

2926
02:31:25,820 --> 02:31:31,820
so you get into a situation where unless someone's head is cut off, Greshner is not going to call a penalty.

2927
02:31:31,820 --> 02:31:35,820
But at this particular time, Islanders have had two penalties already this period,

2928
02:31:35,820 --> 02:31:41,820
what continuous action the Rangers are putting on, continuous pressure in that Islander, and the Islanders

2929
02:31:41,820 --> 02:31:45,820
devise the puck at least four times in the last three or four minutes.

2930
02:31:45,820 --> 02:31:52,820
This is W.A.W., Metcomedia Radio in New York, 11.30 on the bag, by the number of

2931
02:31:52,820 --> 02:31:58,820
players that will stand to see them in a beauty here in this third and final game of the best

2932
02:31:58,820 --> 02:32:04,820
two out of three between the New York Rangers and the New York Islanders, what will go down as a memorable series.

2933
02:32:04,820 --> 02:32:09,820
Side of three right here, on the face, Fairburn, back hands it's blocked, taken off by Harris,

2934
02:32:09,820 --> 02:32:14,820
of the Islanders, sends to center, and it's intercepted by Marat, makes skates to the ranger line,

2935
02:32:14,820 --> 02:32:19,820
ahead of Harris to Greshner, Greshner to his end, left side of the Islander net, Billy Smith makes the

2936
02:32:19,820 --> 02:32:23,820
left step and leaves for Lewis, he's checked behind the goal, back and shoot, winds it around

2937
02:32:23,820 --> 02:32:29,820
now for Bourne, Bourne loses to Fairburn, Fairburn looks to set up, puts in front, knocked away,

2938
02:32:29,820 --> 02:32:34,820
shot on goal by Coutuque goes wide, and Billy Harris picks up the loose puck, Harris to center,

2939
02:32:34,820 --> 02:32:39,820
Harris up to the ranger line, Harris cuts left, checked by Greshner, Coutuque comes up with the puck,

2940
02:32:39,820 --> 02:32:44,820
Coutuque's spinning, a drop for Fairburn, Fairburn to center, hit the behind by Bourne, a leap for

2941
02:32:44,820 --> 02:32:49,820
Urban and across the Islander line, cuts to the goal line, he's checked down the play by Marshall,

2942
02:32:49,820 --> 02:32:54,820
a battle in front between Fairburn and Hart, as Greshner works it free, winds it around the boards,

2943
02:32:54,820 --> 02:32:59,820
but it's about a half a minute third for it, forward after that center, but he is stopped by Greshner,

2944
02:32:59,820 --> 02:33:04,820
Greshner works it free, he's jumped on the play, well, penalty called, but Coutuque takes it away,

2945
02:33:04,820 --> 02:33:10,820
back pass for the run, sends to Vickers, Vickers in across the Islander line, loses on a stick check,

2946
02:33:10,820 --> 02:33:15,820
and Vickers back for it now as he comes back to the ranger line, a hit and tenor for Moran,

2947
02:33:15,820 --> 02:33:20,820
and a sub to by Marshall, leads Parisi, Parisi checked by Greshner, sends it ahead though for Bruin,

2948
02:33:20,820 --> 02:33:26,820
Bruin breaks in, loses on a stick check to Moran, Bruin takes it back, tries to wheel it around the boards,

2949
02:33:26,820 --> 02:33:29,820
but it's broken up by Vickers with one hit at the end, hit the third for it,

2950
02:33:29,820 --> 02:33:34,820
it's down to center, leads Gough there, to there, and across the Islander line, back pass, Vickers goes in,

2951
02:33:34,820 --> 02:33:40,820
see it made by Smith, on that front that was laid on, off the stick of Steve Vickers, now Parisi to center,

2952
02:33:40,820 --> 02:33:44,820
ahead it goes to Bruin, Bruin, pass intercepted by Devaly, Devaly banks it off the board,

2953
02:33:44,820 --> 02:33:50,820
center pop and takes it back, 40 seconds remaining for Curry, side of three, a hit for Hart, and he jumps it in,

2954
02:33:50,820 --> 02:33:54,820
picked up by Bruin, a leap for Westphal, it's too deep, Westphal there, covers it, the side of the ranger net,

2955
02:33:54,820 --> 02:33:59,820
looks to center, it's knocked away, we got a whistle as the puck is pinned in, at the far side,

2956
02:33:59,820 --> 02:34:05,820
half way or stuff, give it back, with 32 seconds remaining, this is sudden death south,

2957
02:34:05,820 --> 02:34:13,820
because we're tied at three, face off coming up now deep, and Ranger Ice, of course, if they conclude at 3-3,

2958
02:34:13,820 --> 02:34:16,820
it will go to a true sudden death overtime.

2959
02:34:16,820 --> 02:34:21,820
Come off, Abel Francis putting Derek Sanderson out, the face off is in, the ranger in,

2960
02:34:21,820 --> 02:34:28,820
he runs his best face off man there, the crowd chanting, he hits a big face off right now for the Rangers,

2961
02:34:28,820 --> 02:34:35,820
he can win it, take control of the puck, and it'll be André Saint Laurent from the out of the

2962
02:34:35,820 --> 02:34:38,820
Derrick Sanderson for the Rangers facing left side, on Ed Jockemet, the linesman,

2963
02:34:38,820 --> 02:34:43,820
Ray Scampanello drops it, loose at the far side, picked up by the out of the Saint Laurent,

2964
02:34:43,820 --> 02:34:48,820
drives it in front, knocked away by Jockemet out of the stick of Park, 25 seconds remaining,

2965
02:34:48,820 --> 02:34:52,820
Park ahead for Sanderson, Sanderson to center, leaves Butler, got the pass after it,

2966
02:34:52,820 --> 02:34:57,820
carries all the way down across the goal line, OIC Club, Butler gets it off to Sanderson with 15 seconds,

2967
02:34:57,820 --> 02:35:01,820
looks to get it to Park at the right point, broken up by Howitt, 10 seconds remaining,

2968
02:35:01,820 --> 02:35:05,820
Howitt shoots it off to center to Nicegram, Nicegram checked on the play by Urban and Nuts,

2969
02:35:05,820 --> 02:35:09,820
at 3 with 5 seconds, he's to the out of the line, the loosest control that is popping ahead for Howitt,

2970
02:35:09,820 --> 02:35:14,820
Howitt at the ranger line, breaks wide as the buzzer sound, and that's the end of the third period,

2971
02:35:14,820 --> 02:35:24,820
and we go to overtime, we go to overtime, we'll have the usual 15 minute intermission,

2972
02:35:24,820 --> 02:35:28,820
and then we're at two overtime with the rangers coming from behind,

2973
02:35:28,820 --> 02:35:34,820
trailing 3-0, scoring three times in this third period to tie it up,

2974
02:35:34,820 --> 02:35:41,820
so at the end of three, the score, the ranger's three, the islander's three, we'll be back in a moment.

2975
02:35:41,820 --> 02:36:04,820
Now here's a word from America's oldest lager beer.

2976
02:36:04,820 --> 02:36:09,820
Did you know that the Shaffer people are the oldest and most experienced lager brewers in America?

2977
02:36:09,820 --> 02:36:15,820
It takes experience to brew any fine beer, but it's taken a little bit more experience to brew Shaffer,

2978
02:36:15,820 --> 02:36:19,820
the one beer found enough to give you flavor that never fades.

2979
02:36:19,820 --> 02:36:23,820
If you'd like to experience the result of all that brewing experience,

2980
02:36:23,820 --> 02:36:28,820
all you gotta do is give a couple of frosty cold Shaffers a try.

2981
02:36:28,820 --> 02:36:45,820
The F&M Shaffer Brewing Company, New York, New York.

2982
02:36:45,820 --> 02:36:52,820
In the third period, all rangers, they outshot the islanders 14 to 4,

2983
02:36:52,820 --> 02:37:00,820
and overall after three periods, rangers with 40 shots at Billy Smith,

2984
02:37:00,820 --> 02:37:04,820
and the islanders with 25 with the combination of Joe Villamur and Ed Jockeman.

2985
02:37:04,820 --> 02:37:12,820
Jockeman came on for Villamur at 14-0-4 of the second period, and Eddie all sparked up.

2986
02:37:12,820 --> 02:37:17,820
No question about it, it had much to do with the rangers turning it around,

2987
02:37:17,820 --> 02:37:22,820
and coming from the three-cent deficit to tie it at three.

2988
02:37:22,820 --> 02:37:27,820
In the third period, it was Fairburn on a tremendous individual effort,

2989
02:37:27,820 --> 02:37:31,820
starting at Christina Rice, the deep part of service,

2990
02:37:31,820 --> 02:37:37,820
and he cut through the entire islander squad and was able to beat Billy Smith.

2991
02:37:37,820 --> 02:37:39,820
Tremendous individual effort.

2992
02:37:39,820 --> 02:37:44,820
Fairburn from Kachurka and Greschner at 4-4-4, and then on a power play,

2993
02:37:44,820 --> 02:37:47,820
with Hardoff for hooking at 12-47.

2994
02:37:47,820 --> 02:37:52,820
Fairburn, again, set up by Vickers and Clark at 13-27.

2995
02:37:52,820 --> 02:37:57,820
And then only 14 seconds later, at 13-41, Rattelle,

2996
02:37:57,820 --> 02:38:00,820
put it in front of Vickers and his slanted home pass spent.

2997
02:38:00,820 --> 02:38:06,820
So it was Vickers from Rattelle until Fair at 13-41.

2998
02:38:06,820 --> 02:38:14,820
Rattelle in the second, Howard for a trip at 13-49, and then Hardoff for hooking at 12-47.

2999
02:38:14,820 --> 02:38:19,820
So the rangers had the islanders of time at 3-3.

3000
02:38:19,820 --> 02:38:24,820
We have the customary intermission period.

3001
02:38:24,820 --> 02:38:27,820
And then Rattelle, the other time, and Rattelle, right on the button,

3002
02:38:27,820 --> 02:38:32,820
and on the subject of that very hard penalty when he was hit with the hook at 12-47,

3003
02:38:32,820 --> 02:38:37,820
the rangers were down 3-1, and if there was any shot at all of the rangers coming back,

3004
02:38:37,820 --> 02:38:42,820
as you said, it would have to be then, and if they went back down, that is the situation.

3005
02:38:42,820 --> 02:38:45,820
That's right, Bob. I think, don't worry, I located Dunk.

3006
02:38:45,820 --> 02:38:49,820
We're going to have him on in between the second and third, second, second and third, Bob,

3007
02:38:49,820 --> 02:38:53,820
running around to get somebody, and old Dunk Wilson, the old Dunk,

3008
02:38:53,820 --> 02:38:56,820
and he was on the pregame show. He's on after the game.

3009
02:38:56,820 --> 02:38:59,820
How can we ask? I don't know what Dunk is going to do with all these Sonys

3010
02:38:59,820 --> 02:39:03,820
and gift certificates that he is collecting.

3011
02:39:03,820 --> 02:39:09,820
Dunk almost ended his goaltending career just now in climbing back in the broadcast location.

3012
02:39:09,820 --> 02:39:13,820
We are tied at 3. We will go to overtime.

3013
02:39:13,820 --> 02:39:20,820
Rangers and islanders at 3-3, and Sal will be talking with Ranger goaltender Dunk Wilson in just a moment.

3014
02:39:20,820 --> 02:39:26,820
And look at the scoreboard. Chicago beat Boston 6-4, so they take that series two games to one.

3015
02:39:26,820 --> 02:39:30,820
Later tonight, Toronto at L.A., they are underway on the first period,

3016
02:39:30,820 --> 02:39:33,820
and we don't have anything for the four and a halfs of the series, top one-one,

3017
02:39:33,820 --> 02:39:37,820
and of course Pittsburgh to St. Louis, two games to nothing.

3018
02:39:37,820 --> 02:39:44,820
ABA playoffs in St. Louis, the Nets over the Spurs, 113-108.

3019
02:39:44,820 --> 02:39:51,820
Let me check out that score. I'm going to have to check that out.

3020
02:39:51,820 --> 02:39:59,820
After three Memphis 79, Kentucky 70. I have to check that score out because we have a discrepancy,

3021
02:39:59,820 --> 02:40:03,820
and I see it the other way around on another part of the sheet.

3022
02:40:03,820 --> 02:40:07,820
Utah leading Denver 10375 after three.

3023
02:40:07,820 --> 02:40:09,820
Track right after this one.

3024
02:40:09,820 --> 02:40:11,820
Does this one go up Madison Avenue?

3025
02:40:11,820 --> 02:40:13,820
That's what the sign says, lady.

3026
02:40:13,820 --> 02:40:16,820
One Margaret Martin on a bus ride.

3027
02:40:16,820 --> 02:40:17,820
Why did I take?

3028
02:40:17,820 --> 02:40:21,820
Hope that the rear of the bus plays. Come on.

3029
02:40:21,820 --> 02:40:25,820
She's spending half her lunch money going to the bank to put money in her savings account.

3030
02:40:25,820 --> 02:40:29,820
Little did she realize that she can save her the bank right around the corner.

3031
02:40:29,820 --> 02:40:31,820
Manufacturers handle her.

3032
02:40:31,820 --> 02:40:35,820
They not only offer high interest, they offer a lot more.

3033
02:40:35,820 --> 02:40:41,820
They have over 170 branches, so she can have close to her job, close to her home,

3034
02:40:41,820 --> 02:40:43,820
close to wherever she happens to be.

3035
02:40:43,820 --> 02:40:46,820
She can make deposits wherever the spirit is.

3036
02:40:46,820 --> 02:40:50,820
She can have a checking account to go with her savings account,

3037
02:40:50,820 --> 02:40:54,820
and a card that lets her cash her check at any manufacturer's handover branch.

3038
02:40:54,820 --> 02:41:01,820
If Margaret Martin saved at manufacturer's handover, she could spend her lunch hour having lunch.

3039
02:41:01,820 --> 02:41:02,820
Traffic.

3040
02:41:02,820 --> 02:41:04,820
Let me get back to work on that.

3041
02:41:04,820 --> 02:41:08,820
Manufacturers' handover. It's banking the way you want it to be.

3042
02:41:08,820 --> 02:41:10,820
Remember FDIC.

3043
02:41:10,820 --> 02:41:14,820
Down the street, back at Madison Square Garden.

3044
02:41:14,820 --> 02:41:18,820
Regulation time over. The score, Rangers 3, Islanders 3.

3045
02:41:18,820 --> 02:41:22,820
Islanders with a 3-0 lead coming into the third period.

3046
02:41:22,820 --> 02:41:27,820
The Rangers with three goals, two by Billy Faburn, one by Steve Vickers.

3047
02:41:27,820 --> 02:41:32,820
The last two coming 14 seconds apart to tie the hockey game.

3048
02:41:32,820 --> 02:41:34,820
My guest, Dunk Wilson.

3049
02:41:34,820 --> 02:41:37,820
Dunk, did you ever see a period like that in all your years of hockey?

3050
02:41:37,820 --> 02:41:40,820
If you did, tell me, but that's the best any I've ever seen.

3051
02:41:40,820 --> 02:41:45,820
Well, only in my first year of pro. We tied one up in the fifth game of first book finals.

3052
02:41:45,820 --> 02:41:48,820
One second to go in a game and beat them in overtime.

3053
02:41:48,820 --> 02:41:52,820
But this one here is a lot different. This is for more money.

3054
02:41:52,820 --> 02:41:56,820
And to come back from three goals when the Islanders were sort of controlling things that looked like,

3055
02:41:56,820 --> 02:42:01,820
I'll tell you, my heart is going about 180th minute right now. It's just amazing.

3056
02:42:01,820 --> 02:42:05,820
I'm just, you know, what can you say? It's the most amazing experience I've ever seen.

3057
02:42:05,820 --> 02:42:07,820
We controlled.

3058
02:42:07,820 --> 02:42:12,820
Eddie came in, I think the one thing he did when he got in there,

3059
02:42:12,820 --> 02:42:17,820
when he came in and started that pipe, maybe he had to get himself into the game after sitting on the bench.

3060
02:42:17,820 --> 02:42:22,820
Maybe loose some of the guys up, they figured, well, let's get the old fellow going and let's go from there.

3061
02:42:22,820 --> 02:42:26,820
It was in between periods there and everybody seemed wired and let's go.

3062
02:42:26,820 --> 02:42:29,820
And we've got nothing to lose because we don't want to go golf the next week.

3063
02:42:29,820 --> 02:42:32,820
So everybody's out there giving the best shot.

3064
02:42:32,820 --> 02:42:38,820
Well, we've got momentum going for us now, so let's keep our fingers crossed and let's hope we can go the same way.

3065
02:42:38,820 --> 02:42:42,820
Doug, we talked on the broadcast describing the game.

3066
02:42:42,820 --> 02:42:46,820
You look at turning point, maybe a couple of good saves, Jocelyn made right after he went in there.

3067
02:42:46,820 --> 02:42:50,820
He made a good kick save on a shot from the point and then Nice from, I think, was all alone on it.

3068
02:42:50,820 --> 02:42:54,820
And Billy Fabarn skating through the entire Island with the team to score that goal.

3069
02:42:54,820 --> 02:42:58,820
What do you say is that the one thing that maybe turned them around?

3070
02:42:58,820 --> 02:43:01,820
Well, I think actually the turning point of the game is my opinion.

3071
02:43:01,820 --> 02:43:05,820
Well, being a goaltender maybe was the deal that Eddie got it through.

3072
02:43:05,820 --> 02:43:08,820
Now, you've got to give Eddie a lot of credit for that, as I was just saying before.

3073
02:43:08,820 --> 02:43:10,820
He's got to get himself in the game.

3074
02:43:10,820 --> 02:43:14,820
When you see a goalkeeper in trouble, everybody gets a little excited because they know what their man heard.

3075
02:43:14,820 --> 02:43:19,820
I think those two goals right off the bat, I knew it as soon as those happened.

3076
02:43:19,820 --> 02:43:21,820
We had a lot of time left for one goal.

3077
02:43:21,820 --> 02:43:23,820
We had the pressure on the whole time.

3078
02:43:23,820 --> 02:43:27,820
The turning point was maybe the constant pressure we got on Smith all night.

3079
02:43:27,820 --> 02:43:32,820
We played excellent hockey, you can't take anything away from Billy Smith.

3080
02:43:32,820 --> 02:43:36,820
But once we got those two goals, you could see the Island was maybe with inexperience,

3081
02:43:36,820 --> 02:43:38,820
they turned around a bit, lose their cool.

3082
02:43:38,820 --> 02:43:44,820
And that's what happened because of our experience, maybe being in the right spot at the right time.

3083
02:43:44,820 --> 02:43:46,820
And thank God we tied it up.

3084
02:43:46,820 --> 02:43:56,820
Doug, on the power play the Rangers had, it was 7.15 or 7.13, I guess, left on the clock when the Rangers had that power play.

3085
02:43:56,820 --> 02:43:58,820
I mentioned that they had a score then.

3086
02:43:58,820 --> 02:44:04,820
But Vickers making the pass to Faber, it was a play where he just sort of just waited, waited.

3087
02:44:04,820 --> 02:44:09,820
But Brad Punk threw the puck into him right away as soon as he got it out of the point rather than shooting.

3088
02:44:09,820 --> 02:44:14,820
What would you rather have, as a goalcenter, you'd rather take that quick shot in a situation like that?

3089
02:44:14,820 --> 02:44:19,820
Or do you think Brad made, I thought Brad made a super play by doing that, by giving the puck to Vickers right away?

3090
02:44:19,820 --> 02:44:21,820
Oh, there's no doubt about it.

3091
02:44:21,820 --> 02:44:23,820
I mean, Brad was the shooter.

3092
02:44:23,820 --> 02:44:25,820
At least the goalcenter could see what's happening.

3093
02:44:25,820 --> 02:44:26,820
The puck has come in like it has.

3094
02:44:26,820 --> 02:44:30,820
You don't know where the late men are because, as you say, you have to watch the puck.

3095
02:44:30,820 --> 02:44:32,820
So Smith is playing the puck, right?

3096
02:44:32,820 --> 02:44:33,820
He's playing Stevie.

3097
02:44:33,820 --> 02:44:37,820
He doesn't know what's going on behind him unless he's got a third eye, which we don't know about.

3098
02:44:37,820 --> 02:44:40,820
But of course, by the time he looks over, it's too late.

3099
02:44:40,820 --> 02:44:42,820
The puck's already in the net.

3100
02:44:42,820 --> 02:44:46,820
Billy Turbin made a great play because he picked it out of the air and kind of ran up from the top shelf.

3101
02:44:46,820 --> 02:44:48,820
I mean, it was just a great play by Billy.

3102
02:44:48,820 --> 02:44:50,820
He was having a great series.

3103
02:44:50,820 --> 02:44:52,820
He scored a couple last night, too.

3104
02:44:52,820 --> 02:44:55,820
That's things like this that I'm saying.

3105
02:44:55,820 --> 02:44:56,820
It's just that experience.

3106
02:44:56,820 --> 02:44:58,820
Maybe a little bit of extra now with the momentum.

3107
02:44:58,820 --> 02:44:59,820
Who knows?

3108
02:44:59,820 --> 02:45:00,820
But it's a funny thing.

3109
02:45:00,820 --> 02:45:06,820
In overtime games I've played and seen, it's usually not a very good goal that wins overtime games.

3110
02:45:06,820 --> 02:45:07,820
It's going to be a funny one.

3111
02:45:07,820 --> 02:45:08,820
Who knows?

3112
02:45:08,820 --> 02:45:13,820
It's going to be a re-bound or a kick in or a deflection or something.

3113
02:45:13,820 --> 02:45:16,820
It's going to be very interesting to see what happens.

3114
02:45:16,820 --> 02:45:17,820
I don't know.

3115
02:45:17,820 --> 02:45:19,820
I'm just so charged right now.

3116
02:45:19,820 --> 02:45:20,820
I don't know.

3117
02:45:20,820 --> 02:45:22,820
I'm just off for words at this time.

3118
02:45:22,820 --> 02:45:25,820
I just pray that things happen right for us.

3119
02:45:25,820 --> 02:45:27,820
You talk about overtime goals.

3120
02:45:27,820 --> 02:45:31,820
Last year the Rangers were involved in the first game of the quarterfinals in Montreal.

3121
02:45:31,820 --> 02:45:34,820
Ron Harris just put in a shot right off the point.

3122
02:45:34,820 --> 02:45:39,820
Right off the face of the couch to Harris, to Boulpède, to Michel O'Rourke.

3123
02:45:39,820 --> 02:45:44,820
A couple of years back, exactly what year, Peterson Couchie won a game here.

3124
02:45:44,820 --> 02:45:46,820
Then it went into the second overtime.

3125
02:45:46,820 --> 02:45:48,820
That ended up at 11.59 on the clock.

3126
02:45:48,820 --> 02:45:51,820
That game started at 7 o'clock, I believe, or 7.30.

3127
02:45:51,820 --> 02:45:53,820
You talk about the weird goals.

3128
02:45:53,820 --> 02:45:56,820
Those two that I can recall were good goals.

3129
02:45:56,820 --> 02:45:58,820
Have I just talked about any overtime periods?

3130
02:45:58,820 --> 02:46:03,820
Have we had any flukes scored on you or maybe by your team?

3131
02:46:03,820 --> 02:46:05,820
I've been sort of fortunate.

3132
02:46:05,820 --> 02:46:13,820
The only time I've played any overtime goals or been in a situation where overtime goals were scored by our team.

3133
02:46:13,820 --> 02:46:19,820
The one time when I was playing with Quebec, we scored a one-second goal to tie it up.

3134
02:46:19,820 --> 02:46:24,820
The goal of the score against us was just a flippant shot of a weird bounce that went by on your record.

3135
02:46:24,820 --> 02:46:26,820
It's just one of those things that happen.

3136
02:46:26,820 --> 02:46:29,820
I think maybe with Eddie he's going to be here tonight.

3137
02:46:29,820 --> 02:46:31,820
He's got the little maybe experienced thing on now.

3138
02:46:31,820 --> 02:46:33,820
Billy Smith's a little down himself.

3139
02:46:33,820 --> 02:46:36,820
You can see him when they scored the third goal, he didn't get up.

3140
02:46:36,820 --> 02:46:38,820
He's got to be feeling some kind of tension.

3141
02:46:38,820 --> 02:46:41,820
A little momentum is going for us, but who knows?

3142
02:46:41,820 --> 02:46:44,820
I don't know. What can you say, Sal?

3143
02:46:44,820 --> 02:46:46,820
We'll find out very shortly.

3144
02:46:46,820 --> 02:46:48,820
I don't want to stay here all night.

3145
02:46:48,820 --> 02:46:52,820
I'd like to get back and just get ready for whatever's going to happen from now on.

3146
02:46:52,820 --> 02:46:54,820
I guess we won't know that until later on.

3147
02:46:54,820 --> 02:46:57,820
I think the boys will come through.

3148
02:46:57,820 --> 02:47:01,820
Rangers defenseman, Nick Beverly came on to play the third period.

3149
02:47:01,820 --> 02:47:05,820
Nick, a man who hasn't been given credit throughout the season.

3150
02:47:05,820 --> 02:47:07,820
He's just a quiet player, just unassuming.

3151
02:47:07,820 --> 02:47:08,820
Does his job.

3152
02:47:08,820 --> 02:47:11,820
He was a goal tender, I'm sure, noter, sir.

3153
02:47:11,820 --> 02:47:13,820
Many of the fine things that Nick Beverly does.

3154
02:47:13,820 --> 02:47:15,820
Well, I've known Nick for a long time.

3155
02:47:15,820 --> 02:47:17,820
I played junior with Nick at one point.

3156
02:47:17,820 --> 02:47:20,820
As you say, he's quite an unassuming man.

3157
02:47:20,820 --> 02:47:22,820
He goes out, he does his job.

3158
02:47:22,820 --> 02:47:24,820
He's quite underrated.

3159
02:47:24,820 --> 02:47:28,820
I mean, if you're going to trade a fellow away like Vic Hadfield in New York,

3160
02:47:28,820 --> 02:47:30,820
the scouts have to know what's going on.

3161
02:47:30,820 --> 02:47:34,820
They know that Nick Beverly is not such a poor hockey player.

3162
02:47:34,820 --> 02:47:35,820
They know he has something going.

3163
02:47:35,820 --> 02:47:37,820
Nick played very well that period.

3164
02:47:37,820 --> 02:47:38,820
He's got his goal in.

3165
02:47:38,820 --> 02:47:40,820
What can you say about Ronnie Gressner?

3166
02:47:40,820 --> 02:47:43,820
He's a 20-year-old kid who's out there like he's been around here for 20 years.

3167
02:47:43,820 --> 02:47:46,820
He forced the puck, he kept it in a couple of times.

3168
02:47:46,820 --> 02:47:50,820
I think the thing that is the key to the third period for us there was our corner work.

3169
02:47:50,820 --> 02:47:52,820
We just beat him to the puck all the time.

3170
02:47:52,820 --> 02:47:53,820
We got hungry.

3171
02:47:53,820 --> 02:47:56,820
It was something we weren't really doing a lot well in the first two periods.

3172
02:47:56,820 --> 02:48:00,820
The way it's going now, I think it'll be strong in the corners again,

3173
02:48:00,820 --> 02:48:02,820
and I think it'll work out good for us.

3174
02:48:02,820 --> 02:48:03,820
That's all I can say, you know.

3175
02:48:03,820 --> 02:48:06,820
Plus the defenseman, we're getting a puck up and keeping it in low.

3176
02:48:06,820 --> 02:48:08,820
We've always got a man coming back now.

3177
02:48:08,820 --> 02:48:10,820
Everything is going so well.

3178
02:48:10,820 --> 02:48:13,820
It's hard to believe that we can't win this game.

3179
02:48:13,820 --> 02:48:15,820
You think the range of defensemen will be going in as deep,

3180
02:48:15,820 --> 02:48:18,820
but in the offensive zone as they did in the third period,

3181
02:48:18,820 --> 02:48:21,820
now that it's a tie hockey game rather than trying to come from behind.

3182
02:48:21,820 --> 02:48:23,820
I think they will.

3183
02:48:23,820 --> 02:48:27,820
I can't see them sitting back and trying to play sort of giddy by the door hockey

3184
02:48:27,820 --> 02:48:31,820
and hope for an open break, because that's going to give the Iowa's a chance to regroup maybe.

3185
02:48:31,820 --> 02:48:33,820
We've got the pressure on them right now.

3186
02:48:33,820 --> 02:48:37,820
We've got everything going for us, the psych, the advantage over them in that.

3187
02:48:37,820 --> 02:48:38,820
So I think you've got to go out.

3188
02:48:38,820 --> 02:48:42,820
Over time, you have to go all out, because you just don't make any mistakes.

3189
02:48:42,820 --> 02:48:43,820
If you do, the game is over.

3190
02:48:43,820 --> 02:48:46,820
You just got to keep going and plugging and hoping you can get the first shot on that,

3191
02:48:46,820 --> 02:48:50,820
because who knows, the most shots sometimes come over in pure hockey.

3192
02:48:50,820 --> 02:48:52,820
Like it was decided by the host shots on that.

3193
02:48:52,820 --> 02:48:56,820
So you have to go all out, and over time, there's no second chance.

3194
02:48:56,820 --> 02:48:59,820
You just have to keep going and hope something works out for you.

3195
02:48:59,820 --> 02:49:01,820
And I think we'll be going right off the bat.

3196
02:49:01,820 --> 02:49:03,820
I think the cattle say, where you go, boys?

3197
02:49:03,820 --> 02:49:04,820
We're going to let you know.

3198
02:49:04,820 --> 02:49:06,820
It's up to you, and let's go.

3199
02:49:06,820 --> 02:49:08,820
Doug Wilson, thanks very much for coming up here.

3200
02:49:08,820 --> 02:49:13,820
I'm glad we, uh, we corraled you to come up and start curating the other things.

3201
02:49:13,820 --> 02:49:14,820
Okay, thanks.

3202
02:49:14,820 --> 02:49:18,820
I like it a little bit, walking through the corridor, and I hope I hear the good cheer.

3203
02:49:18,820 --> 02:49:19,820
You're getting a lot of work on your hands.

3204
02:49:19,820 --> 02:49:21,820
You look like a little doctor to us.

3205
02:49:21,820 --> 02:49:22,820
Bob?

3206
02:49:22,820 --> 02:49:25,820
Oak Phelps, we'll be back on in just a moment.

3207
02:49:25,820 --> 02:49:27,820
The officials have hit the ice.

3208
02:49:27,820 --> 02:49:32,820
As, uh, with the Pardigalto sub-depth overtime, 30 minutes or less.

3209
02:49:32,820 --> 02:49:37,820
Upcoming in just a moment with the Rangers and the Outlanders tied at 3-3.

3210
02:49:37,820 --> 02:49:42,420
And, oh, the cheering we've been hearing tonight, and I think the sign of proud is really up

3211
02:49:42,420 --> 02:49:43,420
for themselves.

3212
02:49:43,420 --> 02:49:45,820
I've met a lot of these folks who are just absolutely cheerful.

3213
02:49:45,820 --> 02:49:47,820
They'll probably wake up cheerful tomorrow.

3214
02:49:47,820 --> 02:49:49,820
That is, if they get a good night's sleep.

3215
02:49:49,820 --> 02:49:54,820
And you know that it's hard to get if you happen to go to bed with a headache and can't sleep.

3216
02:49:54,820 --> 02:49:57,820
The answer, take Excedrin PM.

3217
02:49:57,820 --> 02:49:59,820
The nighttime pain reliever.

3218
02:49:59,820 --> 02:50:00,820
Excedrin PM.

3219
02:50:00,820 --> 02:50:04,820
Relief setting and extension helps you relax and put back the good-sleeping, good-wake-up

3220
02:50:04,820 --> 02:50:07,820
feeling refreshed with no fogginess.

3221
02:50:07,820 --> 02:50:11,820
Of course, you take Excedrin PM only as directed.

3222
02:50:11,820 --> 02:50:15,820
And imagine feeling like that in the morning, even if you have a headache tonight.

3223
02:50:15,820 --> 02:50:16,820
Excedrin PM.

3224
02:50:16,820 --> 02:50:18,820
We'll be back in a moment.

3225
02:50:18,820 --> 02:50:21,820
Alka Seltzer brings you a message from the old one, too.

3226
02:50:21,820 --> 02:50:26,820
So you're in the car, and there, there, will carry to the wheel.

3227
02:50:26,820 --> 02:50:28,820
Just close your eyes.

3228
02:50:28,820 --> 02:50:31,820
Try to forget those lumpy pancakes in your stomach.

3229
02:50:31,820 --> 02:50:34,820
We'll be right there with the Alka too.

3230
02:50:34,820 --> 02:50:39,820
Alka Seltzer, we're not getting any.

3231
02:50:39,820 --> 02:50:43,820
For aches and pains with upset stomach, use Alka Seltzer with specially buffered Asperin

3232
02:50:43,820 --> 02:50:44,820
and Tauxanthesis.

3233
02:50:44,820 --> 02:50:51,820
That's exactly as directed.

3234
02:50:51,820 --> 02:50:54,820
Live over with Sal Massina back at Madison Square Garden.

3235
02:50:54,820 --> 02:50:57,820
Now we have that net score straight down.

3236
02:50:57,820 --> 02:50:59,820
Samoa Spurts beat the New York.

3237
02:50:59,820 --> 02:51:01,820
That's 113.108.

3238
02:51:01,820 --> 02:51:05,820
I didn't even surprise the Spurts.

3239
02:51:05,820 --> 02:51:09,820
And both in front of the New York, that's two games to one.

3240
02:51:09,820 --> 02:51:15,820
Rangers and Idlers are back on, and Jockerman will be going right, and Smith, two all up

3241
02:51:15,820 --> 02:51:16,820
side.

3242
02:51:16,820 --> 02:51:19,820
Oh, we can talk about sudden death in a hockey game.

3243
02:51:19,820 --> 02:51:22,820
This is sudden death in a series.

3244
02:51:22,820 --> 02:51:26,820
Extra pressure, at least if it were just a playoff game, or just a, this is a playoff

3245
02:51:26,820 --> 02:51:30,820
game, but if it was an early round, early game in a seven game series, they'd still

3246
02:51:30,820 --> 02:51:33,820
have the next game to come back after you're defeated.

3247
02:51:33,820 --> 02:51:39,820
This one, you, the team who scores the first goal goes on to play.

3248
02:51:39,820 --> 02:51:43,820
Whoever, and we'll work that out if it's at the end of the hockey game.

3249
02:51:43,820 --> 02:51:49,820
The team that is scored upon goes home to make the team again for the tournament.

3250
02:51:49,820 --> 02:51:55,820
And on a terrible at par, and Drew Bruin on the somebody face off at center-right.

3251
02:51:55,820 --> 02:51:57,820
Pressure packed hockey right now.

3252
02:51:57,820 --> 02:51:59,820
Rangers will stand right to left.

3253
02:51:59,820 --> 02:52:00,820
Idlers left to right.

3254
02:52:00,820 --> 02:52:04,820
Referee Bruin so drops the puck, and on the draw, it is taken by Burt Markle.

3255
02:52:04,820 --> 02:52:06,820
Cross-ice table as he shoots in.

3256
02:52:06,820 --> 02:52:09,820
Left side of Jockerman, Bickers chases down on the corner.

3257
02:52:09,820 --> 02:52:12,820
Bruin shoots and, but score!

3258
02:52:12,820 --> 02:52:16,820
It's deflected in by Parise from in front of it.

3259
02:52:16,820 --> 02:52:24,820
And the Islanders in overtime in the first 11 seconds are defeated by the New York Rangers

3260
02:52:24,820 --> 02:52:26,820
by the score of four, three.

3261
02:52:26,820 --> 02:52:29,820
And the Islanders are on the ice, out to each other.

3262
02:52:29,820 --> 02:52:35,820
They have come up with a tremendous upset victory over the New York Rangers.

3263
02:52:35,820 --> 02:52:42,820
And this game has just concluded to quiet the crowd here at Madison Square Garden.

3264
02:52:42,820 --> 02:52:44,820
And that is most unusual, Sal.

3265
02:52:44,820 --> 02:52:48,820
When you go to overtime, you do not expect that type of ending.

3266
02:52:48,820 --> 02:52:51,820
And for the Rangers, it has to be embarrassing.

3267
02:52:51,820 --> 02:52:52,820
They did jump from behind.

3268
02:52:52,820 --> 02:52:53,820
They were coming clean.

3269
02:52:53,820 --> 02:52:57,820
They were able to tie it at three and three.

3270
02:52:57,820 --> 02:53:02,820
But the embarrassment is in facing the New York Islanders.

3271
02:53:02,820 --> 02:53:08,820
For the first time in playoff competition, they are able to come away with the victory.

3272
02:53:08,820 --> 02:53:17,820
And this playoff series, Juggamster won, and they do it on a go by Parise at the 11th second mark.

3273
02:53:17,820 --> 02:53:19,820
And a great hustling play by Jhu.

3274
02:53:19,820 --> 02:53:20,820
Bruin to go into that corner.

3275
02:53:20,820 --> 02:53:22,820
He and Bickers went in.

3276
02:53:22,820 --> 02:53:24,820
Bickers not playing a bounce off the board.

3277
02:53:24,820 --> 02:53:27,820
Right, Bruin got it and Bruin in front.

3278
02:53:27,820 --> 02:53:28,820
Islanders win it, Mob.

3279
02:53:28,820 --> 02:53:33,820
And a really dejected Ranger Hockey Club skating off the ice right now.

3280
02:53:33,820 --> 02:53:40,820
They're making the shaking hands out at the center ice, as they customarily do on a playoff series.

3281
02:53:40,820 --> 02:53:43,820
Islanders, wow, they are happy bunch right now.

3282
02:53:43,820 --> 02:53:49,820
And they should be, because when you consider the fact that they were so severely outplayed

3283
02:53:49,820 --> 02:53:56,820
in the third perimeter, that old man Fenton going the Ranger way, threading three nothing,

3284
02:53:56,820 --> 02:53:59,820
coming back to tie it at three and three.

3285
02:53:59,820 --> 02:54:02,820
And the two goals by Fairburn and the one goal by Bickers.

3286
02:54:02,820 --> 02:54:05,820
It was Rangers all the way in the third.

3287
02:54:05,820 --> 02:54:08,820
And the three will come around, punch drop.

3288
02:54:08,820 --> 02:54:10,820
Islanders take the face off.

3289
02:54:10,820 --> 02:54:15,820
Bruin taking it out of the corner, flipping it in front of the net.

3290
02:54:15,820 --> 02:54:22,820
And JP Parisi, who was much better than that, was able to jam it past Chalkamon.

3291
02:54:22,820 --> 02:54:27,820
And that's the story for the 74-75 season for the New York Rangers.

3292
02:54:27,820 --> 02:54:29,820
Brad Clark with the man doing the crunching.

3293
02:54:29,820 --> 02:54:33,820
The Rangers down three nothing coming into the third period.

3294
02:54:33,820 --> 02:54:35,820
Fought back to tie it and they could have won it.

3295
02:54:35,820 --> 02:54:38,820
Mob, they had some opportunities right in the hockey game.

3296
02:54:38,820 --> 02:54:41,820
They had the Islanders on the ropes, did not capitalize.

3297
02:54:41,820 --> 02:54:46,820
But they, that 15 minute time, the Islanders settled them down,

3298
02:54:46,820 --> 02:54:49,820
gave them time to regroup themselves.

3299
02:54:49,820 --> 02:54:52,820
They came out strong, they won the face off, shot it in,

3300
02:54:52,820 --> 02:54:56,820
Bruin going in, winning the race for the puck and throwing it out in front.

3301
02:54:56,820 --> 02:55:00,820
And as you look back at the 74-75 season for the Rangers,

3302
02:55:00,820 --> 02:55:04,820
it has to be a huge disappointment.

3303
02:55:04,820 --> 02:55:10,820
It does, Mob. They had the players at training camp and they were very, very optimistic.

3304
02:55:10,820 --> 02:55:11,820
They did run into some injuries.

3305
02:55:11,820 --> 02:55:14,820
They just geeked out on the next to the last day of the season

3306
02:55:14,820 --> 02:55:18,820
when the Islanders lost to Philadelphia on a Saturday night.

3307
02:55:18,820 --> 02:55:19,820
They clinched second place.

3308
02:55:19,820 --> 02:55:23,820
They could not win the game on Sunday night, which would have put them actually ahead of Pittsburgh.

3309
02:55:23,820 --> 02:55:26,820
And Pittsburgh also lost.

3310
02:55:26,820 --> 02:55:28,820
Tying with the Islanders for second place.

3311
02:55:28,820 --> 02:55:29,820
The Islanders in their third season.

3312
02:55:29,820 --> 02:55:33,820
The Rangers in the staffer, Jackie Furman, now in the playoffs.

3313
02:55:33,820 --> 02:55:35,820
They lose two games on their whole heist.

3314
02:55:35,820 --> 02:55:37,820
If you think about it, those last two weeks of the season,

3315
02:55:37,820 --> 02:55:41,820
Rangers were fighting for their playoff lives and also for home-race advantage,

3316
02:55:41,820 --> 02:55:45,820
which meant absolutely nothing in this two-out-of-three series.

3317
02:55:45,820 --> 02:55:50,820
And really, when you look over the last several weeks of the season,

3318
02:55:50,820 --> 02:55:52,820
the Rangers were not an injured hockey club.

3319
02:55:52,820 --> 02:55:56,820
The only injured player was down, Rob.

3320
02:55:56,820 --> 02:56:00,820
Was down was Miss. Defense was the problem with this team.

3321
02:56:00,820 --> 02:56:01,820
They were in and out of hockey club.

3322
02:56:01,820 --> 02:56:06,820
They really won big games, particularly down the stretch.

3323
02:56:06,820 --> 02:56:08,820
They did not beat the quality teams.

3324
02:56:08,820 --> 02:56:13,820
They were hoping to rescue the season with a good performance during the playoffs.

3325
02:56:13,820 --> 02:56:17,820
And, of course, had they done well in the playoffs,

3326
02:56:17,820 --> 02:56:20,820
people would forget about the regular season.

3327
02:56:20,820 --> 02:56:24,820
As it turns out, the Rangers are eliminated in this opening round.

3328
02:56:24,820 --> 02:56:28,820
And now people will not forget about the regular season.

3329
02:56:28,820 --> 02:56:31,820
They will try to start rebuilding this year with, of course,

3330
02:56:31,820 --> 02:56:35,820
breast-wrap being brought up after the ceiling was traded.

3331
02:56:35,820 --> 02:56:37,820
Rick Middleton giving the opportunity to play.

3332
02:56:37,820 --> 02:56:39,820
He missed quite a few games because of an injury.

3333
02:56:39,820 --> 02:56:41,820
These are young players of the future.

3334
02:56:41,820 --> 02:56:44,820
I know Dave Maloney had a fairly successful year down in Providence.

3335
02:56:44,820 --> 02:56:49,820
He's the number one draft choice of the Rangers, an 18-year-old underage junior.

3336
02:56:49,820 --> 02:56:54,820
However, he received, he got a couple of injuries throughout the season with Providence.

3337
02:56:54,820 --> 02:56:59,820
And Imo Francis is a little concerned about the, about him being susceptible to injury.

3338
02:56:59,820 --> 02:57:01,820
Did they ever announce that last goal?

3339
02:57:01,820 --> 02:57:02,820
I don't think so.

3340
02:57:02,820 --> 02:57:06,820
Parisi and Druen, one of the island of the defensemen actually shot the puck in.

3341
02:57:06,820 --> 02:57:08,820
I guess they could have credited a sister here,

3342
02:57:08,820 --> 02:57:13,820
but right now nothing that the island is already worried about.

3343
02:57:13,820 --> 02:57:17,820
We're calling it unofficially from our vantage point.

3344
02:57:17,820 --> 02:57:21,820
Parisi, the last goal from Druen at the 11th second half,

3345
02:57:21,820 --> 02:57:24,820
but it was never officially announced.

3346
02:57:24,820 --> 02:57:28,820
Still on the board is the final score.

3347
02:57:28,820 --> 02:57:33,820
Rangers 3, 1949 remaining in the game,

3348
02:57:33,820 --> 02:57:37,820
which indicates that the goal was scored at the 11th second mark,

3349
02:57:37,820 --> 02:57:39,820
and Islanders 4.

3350
02:57:39,820 --> 02:57:42,820
Now that's the story in sudden death overtime.

3351
02:57:42,820 --> 02:57:50,820
Coincidentally, North McLean of the Rangers staff dropped by to point out that back in 1937,

3352
02:57:50,820 --> 02:57:55,820
in the days of the rivalry of the old New York Americans and the New York Rangers,

3353
02:57:55,820 --> 02:58:00,820
in a upset in overtime, in fact in the third overtime,

3354
02:58:00,820 --> 02:58:07,820
the Americans won a best two out of three playoff series by the score of 3-2.

3355
02:58:07,820 --> 02:58:11,820
That's rather ironic, really.

3356
02:58:11,820 --> 02:58:15,820
Islanders did way three all the time, just 11 seconds, really unbelievable.

3357
02:58:15,820 --> 02:58:21,820
I bet many participants coming back to sit in their seats are going for refreshments between periods,

3358
02:58:21,820 --> 02:58:25,820
but if they could come back to their seat, the goal was scored.

3359
02:58:25,820 --> 02:58:27,820
Okay, that final score once again.

3360
02:58:27,820 --> 02:58:31,820
Sal will be up coming with a complete wrap up on the first game show.

3361
02:58:31,820 --> 02:58:36,820
In sudden death overtime, the New York Rangers season has ended.

3362
02:58:36,820 --> 02:58:40,820
The New York Islanders beating the New York Rangers by the score of 4-3.

3363
02:58:40,820 --> 02:58:46,820
Now the Islanders will open up on Sunday.

3364
02:58:46,820 --> 02:58:49,820
Let's see what the situation is right now.

3365
02:58:49,820 --> 02:58:52,820
Chicago has defeated Boston 6-4.

3366
02:58:52,820 --> 02:58:57,820
The Islanders will open up the best four out of seven series this Sunday against...

3367
02:58:57,820 --> 02:58:59,820
Very good, Mark.

3368
02:58:59,820 --> 02:59:01,820
They will not play Buffalo.

3369
02:59:01,820 --> 02:59:05,820
They will play Montreal if LA wins.

3370
02:59:05,820 --> 02:59:12,820
In Montreal, they will play Pittsburgh if Toronto wins that game between Toronto and LA out on the West Coast.

3371
02:59:12,820 --> 02:59:19,820
So they will not know who or whether will be playing until the competition tonight is concluded.

3372
02:59:19,820 --> 02:59:25,820
Toronto playing at LA this evening, and that's the game that they must look at.

3373
02:59:25,820 --> 02:59:31,820
That's right, Mom, and of course they can't make their arrangements until about 3 o'clock in the morning when that score comes in,

3374
02:59:31,820 --> 02:59:35,820
starting at about 11 o'clock hour time. Well, it started an hour ago.

3375
02:59:35,820 --> 02:59:38,820
Chicago with an upset over Boston 6-4.

3376
02:59:38,820 --> 02:59:43,820
At the start of this 1974-75 National Hockey League season,

3377
02:59:43,820 --> 02:59:49,820
not too many people would have figured that the Boston Brawns and the New York Rangers would be eliminated

3378
02:59:49,820 --> 02:59:53,820
in what has to be considered the preliminary rounds of the playoffs.

3379
02:59:53,820 --> 02:59:57,820
Incredible. Bobby's all going home early. Unbelievable.

3380
02:59:57,820 --> 03:00:02,820
Along with his Boston Brawns and of course the New York Rangers,

3381
03:00:02,820 --> 03:00:09,820
I see the president of the New York Outlanders, Roy Bowe, a very happy man to our left.

3382
03:00:09,820 --> 03:00:15,820
And he's got to figure out what travel plans will be the next couple of days. Really incredible.

3383
03:00:15,820 --> 03:00:20,820
And for Outlander fans, we suggest, as we have the last couple of weeks,

3384
03:00:20,820 --> 03:00:25,820
you have a partner, nobody's having up on the deck, you'll have local newspapers tomorrow,

3385
03:00:25,820 --> 03:00:30,820
and you'll know where the New York Outlanders will be playing on Sunday as they open up the playoff series.

3386
03:00:30,820 --> 03:00:32,820
Well, that's about it.

3387
03:00:32,820 --> 03:00:35,820
Tonight's game brought to you by Schaefer Beer, by Bristol Myers,

3388
03:00:35,820 --> 03:00:38,820
makers of Opel Vans, Superdrive, by Miles Laboratories,

3389
03:00:38,820 --> 03:00:42,820
makers of Alka-Seltzer, and by American Motors.

3390
03:00:42,820 --> 03:00:48,820
Thanks to our engineer, Joey Elmer, our statistician, the bullet, Bob Meyer.

3391
03:00:48,820 --> 03:00:54,820
As far as our Knick and Ranger play-by-play broadcasts are concerned here on WNEW,

3392
03:00:54,820 --> 03:00:58,820
the Knicks can beat the Rockets in Houston tomorrow afternoon

3393
03:00:58,820 --> 03:01:03,820
for the talk with you from Boston on Monday night

3394
03:01:03,820 --> 03:01:07,820
to bring you game number one on the New York Knicks and the Boston Celtics.

3395
03:01:07,820 --> 03:01:15,820
If the Rockets beat the Knicks tomorrow afternoon, we have concluded our winter spring play-by-play schedule.

3396
03:01:15,820 --> 03:01:18,820
Sal, again, despite all your personal problems,

3397
03:01:18,820 --> 03:01:22,820
I've got a delight to work with you.

3398
03:01:22,820 --> 03:01:27,820
I hope you'll be feeling better in a couple of days when all the pressure is lifted.

3399
03:01:27,820 --> 03:01:30,820
Bob, it's always a pleasure working with you.

3400
03:01:30,820 --> 03:01:32,820
I've had a lot of fun throughout the year.

3401
03:01:32,820 --> 03:01:34,820
I'm pretty concerned.

3402
03:01:34,820 --> 03:01:38,820
A couple of things I meant, a couple of things I kidded about.

3403
03:01:38,820 --> 03:01:42,820
For Sal Vecino, this is Bob Albert for Madison Square Garden.

3404
03:01:42,820 --> 03:01:44,820
Now for the postgame here, Sal.

3405
03:01:44,820 --> 03:01:45,820
Thank you, Bob.

3406
03:01:45,820 --> 03:01:48,820
Tonight, a disappointing night for the New York Rangers

3407
03:01:48,820 --> 03:01:51,820
and a very, very happy night for the New York Islanders.

3408
03:01:51,820 --> 03:01:55,820
The Islanders in their third year of playing the National Hockey League,

3409
03:01:55,820 --> 03:02:01,820
defeating the New York Rangers 4-3 at 11 seconds of the first overtime period.

3410
03:02:01,820 --> 03:02:06,820
Islanders winning their preliminary round, three games to two, or two games to one,

3411
03:02:06,820 --> 03:02:13,820
and they will go on to meet either Buffalo or Pittsburgh on Sunday in the quarterfinal round

3412
03:02:13,820 --> 03:02:16,820
for their first actual appearance.

3413
03:02:16,820 --> 03:02:20,820
A great game tonight, fantastic, as you would say.

3414
03:02:20,820 --> 03:02:27,820
The Islanders and Rangers, Billy Smith inserted and goal by Coach Al Arbor,

3415
03:02:27,820 --> 03:02:29,820
played stupendously in the first period.

3416
03:02:29,820 --> 03:02:32,820
It was a spectacular save by Smith throughout.

3417
03:02:32,820 --> 03:02:36,820
As Jack Riley, a scout for the Pittsburgh Penguins and their former general manager said,

3418
03:02:36,820 --> 03:02:41,820
Smith kept him in the hockey game in the first period, and a goaltender does that for a team.

3419
03:02:41,820 --> 03:02:44,820
Billy was called upon to make 15 saves.

3420
03:02:44,820 --> 03:02:50,820
Jill Villamur, who started and goal for the Rangers, was called upon to make 8.

3421
03:02:50,820 --> 03:02:55,820
Bob Gillies, the first goal for the Islanders, his second goal of the playoffs,

3422
03:02:55,820 --> 03:02:59,820
and the 16-minute mark assisted by Bob Bourne and Bert Marshall.

3423
03:02:59,820 --> 03:03:02,820
Marshall stopping the puck at his end, giving it to Bourne.

3424
03:03:02,820 --> 03:03:06,820
A three-on-two develop, ball to Gillies going in the left side,

3425
03:03:06,820 --> 03:03:09,820
and Gillies shooting it between goaltenders, Jill Villamur's legs,

3426
03:03:09,820 --> 03:03:13,820
and the Islanders lead 1-0, although the Rangers outplayed the Islanders in that first period.

3427
03:03:13,820 --> 03:03:23,820
In the second period, Dennis Potvin scoring his first goal in the playoff series at 8.26,

3428
03:03:23,820 --> 03:03:25,820
on a power play.

3429
03:03:25,820 --> 03:03:32,820
He making the play along the corner, outskating both Billy Fairburn and Ron Harris for the puck,

3430
03:03:32,820 --> 03:03:36,820
giving it to Nice, Nice, and headed out to Brother John Potvin at the right point.

3431
03:03:36,820 --> 03:03:40,820
John shooting it in, Dennis deflecting it, Islanders leading 2-0.

3432
03:03:40,820 --> 03:03:46,820
And at 12.51, Dennis Potvin, a shorthanded goal, assisted by Lord Henning.

3433
03:03:46,820 --> 03:03:51,820
Dennis Potvin taking the pass from Henning, going in on Villamur for about 30 feet out of heat.

3434
03:03:51,820 --> 03:03:56,820
Also shot the puck trickling through Villamur's legs, Islanders leading 3-0.

3435
03:03:56,820 --> 03:04:04,820
And at that point, after Villamur, not at that point, but after Villamur made a couple of saves in front of the Ranger net,

3436
03:04:04,820 --> 03:04:08,820
he got up a little shaky, Villamur did hurt his right knee last night.

3437
03:04:08,820 --> 03:04:11,820
And it was replaced by Eddie Jockeman at the 14.04 mark.

3438
03:04:11,820 --> 03:04:15,820
Now penalties in that second period, Howard for holding for the Islanders at 3.36,

3439
03:04:15,820 --> 03:04:20,820
and Billy Fairburn and Dennis Potvin both picked up charging penalties at 5.08.

3440
03:04:20,820 --> 03:04:25,820
Greshner a trip at 6.30. Hart for holding at 11.32.

3441
03:04:25,820 --> 03:04:28,820
Then Butler and Lewis picking up 7 minutes for roughing and fighting.

3442
03:04:28,820 --> 03:04:30,820
Billy Harris for slashing.

3443
03:04:30,820 --> 03:04:36,820
Then what people said was a turning point, Gary Howard, Eddie Jockeman picking up penalties.

3444
03:04:36,820 --> 03:04:41,820
Jockeman 2 minutes for roughing and 2 minutes for cross-checking.

3445
03:04:41,820 --> 03:04:46,820
Gary Howard a roughing penalty. Jockeman a couple of good saves when he replaced Villamur.

3446
03:04:46,820 --> 03:04:52,820
Now he picked up a third man in game mixed conduct on that play and was out for the remainder of the game.

3447
03:04:52,820 --> 03:04:56,820
Scoring stood that way 3-0, Islanders at the end of the second period.

3448
03:04:56,820 --> 03:05:02,820
And the Rangers still had to kill off the penalty, the second penalty to Jockeman early in the third period.

3449
03:05:02,820 --> 03:05:09,820
Billy Fairburn at 4.44, skating through the entire team after picking up the passes from Kachuk and Greshner.

3450
03:05:09,820 --> 03:05:13,820
Deek Billy Smith and that made the score 3-1, Islanders.

3451
03:05:13,820 --> 03:05:17,820
The Rangers coming to within two goals.

3452
03:05:17,820 --> 03:05:21,820
Howard a tripping penalty at 1.39. Hart a penalty at 12.47.

3453
03:05:21,820 --> 03:05:24,820
And at that time we stated the Rangers were going to come back.

3454
03:05:24,820 --> 03:05:27,820
They had a score on that power play opportunity.

3455
03:05:27,820 --> 03:05:31,820
Again, Billy Fairburn, rest, keeping the puck in at the point, throwing a quick little pick

3456
03:05:31,820 --> 03:05:35,820
as Vickers waiting, waiting. Fairburn just moved into the left of Smith.

3457
03:05:35,820 --> 03:05:39,820
The Vickers a beautiful pass. Fairburn throw it up top, 3-2, Islanders.

3458
03:05:39,820 --> 03:05:47,820
Then just 14 seconds later, Steve Vickers after a retell and Jill Baer worked the puck in, keeping it in, throwing it to a retell in the corner.

3459
03:05:47,820 --> 03:05:50,820
The retell working it out to Vickers who stood for the right of Smith.

3460
03:05:50,820 --> 03:05:56,820
Vickers put it in, tying the game up 3-3 and the Rangers with many opportunities seemed to have the Islanders on the ropes.

3461
03:05:56,820 --> 03:06:00,820
However, they could not put it away and the game went into overtime.

3462
03:06:00,820 --> 03:06:07,820
Shot on goal, regulation play. The Rangers had 39, the Islanders had 25.

3463
03:06:07,820 --> 03:06:10,820
The Rangers had 40, the Islanders had 25.

3464
03:06:10,820 --> 03:06:15,820
Then at the 11th second mark, the faceoff, Druin beating Rattal to the faceoff.

3465
03:06:15,820 --> 03:06:18,820
Potvin shooting it in, it deflected off a Ranger player on the way in.

3466
03:06:18,820 --> 03:06:22,820
Eliminating the icing call, Vickers going in, getting his stick on it.

3467
03:06:22,820 --> 03:06:26,820
Tricky Hop throwing that to the puck, threw it right into the crease of Marieke, just put it into the net.

3468
03:06:26,820 --> 03:06:33,820
And the Islanders won the hockey game and the series, two games to one, the hockey game for the Franks.

3469
03:06:33,820 --> 03:06:35,820
And for the Rangers, that about wraps it up.

3470
03:06:35,820 --> 03:06:40,820
They're out, they have to look to training camp next year, they started rebuilding this year.

3471
03:06:40,820 --> 03:06:43,820
There's a possibility they may have some more younger players up next year.

3472
03:06:43,820 --> 03:06:46,820
Jerry Holland had a good year in Providence.

3473
03:06:46,820 --> 03:06:54,820
Maloney, Dave Maloney, their rookie defenseman, aside from a couple of injuries he did incur, also showed signs.

3474
03:06:54,820 --> 03:06:58,820
Elsewhere, International Hockey League preliminary round of the Stanley Cup playoffs,

3475
03:06:58,820 --> 03:07:03,820
Chicago Blackhawks after being defeated by Boston 8-2 on Tuesday night.

3476
03:07:03,820 --> 03:07:06,820
Winning game in overtime, 4-3 on Thursday.

3477
03:07:06,820 --> 03:07:12,820
And tonight in Boston, beating the Boston Bears, 6-4 to take that series.

3478
03:07:12,820 --> 03:07:18,820
And a surprise, and Coach Billy Ray has the Blackhawks moving and a tough hockey club.

3479
03:07:18,820 --> 03:07:26,820
However, an unofficial report, the statistics, shot down goal, Boston at 51, Chicago 18.

3480
03:07:26,820 --> 03:07:28,820
I'll have to see that officially.

3481
03:07:28,820 --> 03:07:32,820
Something that was thrown around up in the press box between periods.

3482
03:07:32,820 --> 03:07:41,820
By the way, that goal by Parisi to give the Islanders a 4-3 victory was an NHL record for the fastest overtime goal ever.

3483
03:07:41,820 --> 03:07:43,820
Island is a happy group.

3484
03:07:43,820 --> 03:07:45,820
They win the hockey game and the series.

3485
03:07:45,820 --> 03:07:48,820
They win the hockey game and they set it 4-3 in the series, two games to one.

3486
03:07:48,820 --> 03:07:50,820
Later on tonight, Toronto is on that run.

3487
03:07:50,820 --> 03:07:57,820
Now the Islanders from here have two possible opponents, so depending upon that Toronto and LA game.

3488
03:07:57,820 --> 03:08:01,820
And the shape-up will go as follows.

3489
03:08:01,820 --> 03:08:12,820
Should Toronto, should LA win that game, the Islanders, the Islanders will play against Montreal.

3490
03:08:12,820 --> 03:08:18,820
It would be Philadelphia against Chicago.

3491
03:08:18,820 --> 03:08:21,820
Pittsburgh against Vancouver.

3492
03:08:21,820 --> 03:08:25,820
Bobby Pepper is in Vancouver.

3493
03:08:25,820 --> 03:08:30,820
Got to figure this one out as we go along.

3494
03:08:30,820 --> 03:08:36,820
And LA.

3495
03:08:36,820 --> 03:08:39,820
LA will also be in.

3496
03:08:39,820 --> 03:08:43,820
With the other victor of the series would be against Pittsburgh.

3497
03:08:43,820 --> 03:08:49,820
Philadelphia, Chicago, LA, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Vancouver, Islanders, Montreal.

3498
03:08:49,820 --> 03:08:52,820
It would be a change if Toronto should win that game.

3499
03:08:52,820 --> 03:08:54,820
Toronto would slip in.

3500
03:08:54,820 --> 03:08:57,820
They would drop to the bottom spot and it would change the entire picture.

3501
03:08:57,820 --> 03:09:05,820
Just for the Islanders' point of view, they either play Montreal, LA win, or play Pittsburgh if Toronto wins.

3502
03:09:05,820 --> 03:09:09,820
Other scores in the NBA playoffs resume tomorrow.

3503
03:09:09,820 --> 03:09:13,820
Nixon used in the third final game, W-A-W at time at 1-20.

3504
03:09:13,820 --> 03:09:18,820
In the NBA playoffs, St. Louis taking a 2-1 lead over the New York Nets.

3505
03:09:18,820 --> 03:09:22,820
In the playoffs, they beat the Nets tonight in St. Louis, 1-13, a 1-08.

3506
03:09:22,820 --> 03:09:27,820
Third quarter score, Memphis over Kentucky, 7-9, a 70.

3507
03:09:27,820 --> 03:09:30,820
The Colonel's lead that series, three games to none.

3508
03:09:30,820 --> 03:09:37,820
A third quarter score, Utah 103, Denver 75, Denver leading in that series, two games to one.

3509
03:09:37,820 --> 03:09:40,820
That about does it for the Rangers season and our season.

3510
03:09:40,820 --> 03:10:00,820
It was a pleasure bringing these games to you.
