00:00It's a hockey night in Pittsburgh! Tonight, from Madison Square Garden in New York City, the National Hockey League presents the Pittsburgh Penguins and the New York Rangers.
00:12Can't get into the Rangers Inn, the puck hops in, and he can't get it, and here's a lead pass by the Rangers.
00:18On to Zuccarello, comes left side here, in the Penguins, in to step on, behind the net for Grabner, he couldn't take the pass.
00:24And Dumoulin, whistle it up through center, and after the puck, Kessel might have a chance, he's gonna get it, going in the net!
00:29And he's stopped by Helberg, who made the save on him, he didn't know that he made the save, he didn't know where the puck was.
00:34He looked behind him, he thought it was in.
00:36Here's Pouliot, center point, fake a shot, skates over to the left point area, on to Kessel, Phil Kessel holding that puck to the left point area.
00:56Pouliot's gonna come off, he got it in the net, stop, and a rebound play, Bonino puts it in!
01:00Nick Bonino on the rebound, and the Penguins have a 1-0 lead!
01:04Oh, Donna needs a chocolate donut!
01:09Jimmy Vesey gets caught snoozing in the defensive zone coverage, and how about the patience of Phil Kessel?
01:16To carry the puck from the half wall, all the way out to the point after taking a pass from Derek Pouliot,
01:21he's just waiting, he's waiting for Bonino to get in behind Vesey.
01:25And then, just a harmless wrister by Phil Kessel, and this is not good rebound control by the youngster, Magnus Helberg.
01:33He burps it right up to Bonino, and on the backhand, Nick Bonino gives the Penguins a 1-0 lead.
01:40Yeah, and I hope he does too, because he's an added dimension, really, in playoff hockey that you can't measure, that Hagelin has, from a defensive standpoint, and the speed that he has.
01:50It really makes a difference, over the majors, right back in, and they have tied this game, or did they not?
01:55They did not, it came off the post, right in front, and Jari comes up with that puck somehow.
02:02Oh, Tanner Glass, are you kidding me? Tanner Glass, former Penguin, with as wide open a net as you'll ever see,
02:10and Tristan Jari gets paddled down on the goal line, the puck bounces up in the air, and somehow, with his glove, he's able to catch it behind his back!
02:18Oh my goodness, Tristan Jari! That's crazy!
02:22Strong, real strong, thick body, and here comes Ryan McDonough, coming back into the Penguins' zone, down the left side, shoots and scores!
02:33He beats Jari on the stick-hand side, from the slot area, from 27 feet, and it's a 1-1 game, Ryan McDonough.
02:43Wow, what an individual effort there by Ryan McDonough, as he backs off the Penguins' defenseman, Ron Hainsey.
02:51He skates left, and rips the puck between the body of Hainsey, and Tristan Jari late with the blocker to pick up that shot.
03:02From the Rangers' captain, Ryan McDonough, might have hit the stick of Hainsey, maybe that's why Jari looked fooled on that blocker's side.
03:09But nonetheless, we're tied at one. It almost put the puck in his own net, and Max Zuccarella had a couple of whacks also.
03:17Here's Stephon, one-timer, and he shoots and scores!
03:20Derek Stephon with traffic in front. I believe Rick Nash was in front of that net.
03:26And he is a tough target boy for a goaltender, and Stephon just rifled it by.
03:31Jari on his glove-hand side, it looked like, and it's 2-1 New York.
03:35Too easy. That's too easy, Mikey.
03:37Clean face-off win by Mika Zabinejad against Oscar Sundquist.
03:41A one-touch pass from Ryan McDonough to the right-hand shooting Derek Stephon.
03:47And while those passes are taking place, the big body of Rick Nash is right in front of Tristan Jari.
03:54Jari has no chance at all.
03:57And this one might have been deflected also, Mikey, as Tom Kunako went down on one knee,
04:03and it might have hit the stick of Kunako, and then jumped up over Tristan Jari as well as Nash right in front.
04:10Of the Penguins, that minder, and it's 2-1 Rangers.
04:14Winning the draw, but Wilson didn't make too much happen there as now defenseman.
04:20Marks right ahead. Here's Rowney getting a chance.
04:22Going to the net. He shoots and scores! He pumps it right by Helberg!
04:25And Rowney cutting through the zone into the Rangers net area.
04:29Pulls the trigger of the right-hander, makes it a 2-2 tie.
04:32It's time to buy new shoes.
04:35That one kind of came out of nowhere.
04:38And Carter Rowney just put the motor to full bore and ends up with a goal working.
04:44Yeah, turnover by Kevin Kline.
04:47Trying to go D-to-D after a mismanaged puck by the Rangers in the neutral zone.
04:52The Penguins go to dump the puck in and gets knocked down by Kline.
04:55He tries to go D-to-D.
04:57The quick stick by Carter Rowney intercepts that D-to-D pass as he comes in on Helberg.
05:03A little hesitation.
05:05He gets Helberg to go down.
05:06He goes up over the left glove hand.
05:08Carter Rowney.
05:09And we are tied at 2.
05:11It doesn't mean that much to either club.
05:14But Poliats look good.
05:15Well, here comes Rick Nash.
05:17Now, cruising to the Penguins end.
05:19Looking for a man.
05:20Vesey going to the net.
05:21Stopped by Jari.
05:22And Vesey finds it again.
05:23There's a vintage at a whister.
05:25And Jari got a blocking glove on that one.
05:27I love that first stop by Tristan Jari.
05:29And what a pass by Rick Nash.
05:32Just throw a backhand aerial saucer pass.
05:35We're only giving Vesey to get it.
05:38And Jari's waiting for him.
05:40Not much of a move by Vesey.
05:42He tried to go blocker side.
05:44And Tristan Jari tracked it all the way.
05:47Right into the right blocker hand.
05:50You want to get yourself tuned up for the playoffs.
05:55And there's goals to be met that you want to try and accomplish.
05:59You got players out here playing.
06:00The Rangers back in.
06:01A backhand shot by Vesey.
06:03And there's one reason.
06:04As Vesey backhands it.
06:06Up over the club hand of goaltender Tristan Jari.
06:10And the Rangers take the lead 3-2.
06:15I tell you Mikey.
06:16Oscar Sundquist has his hand full.
06:19With Mika Zabinijad.
06:23As Zabinijad wins the face off.
06:25That's twice now.
06:26Zabinijad has beat Sundquist on the face off.
06:29And it's resulted in a goal.
06:31This time the wrister.
06:33Gets knocked down.
06:35And Mika.
06:36Excuse me.
06:37Jim Vesey gets separation on Derek Pouliot.
06:39Pouliot's just too flat-footed there Mikey.
06:41The close on Vesey.
06:43Vesey gets to the backhand.
06:44Elevates the puck over.
06:46The left glove hand.
06:47Of Tristan Jari.
06:48And the Rangers have the lead.
06:503-2.
06:51I think by winning though.
06:53The Red Wigs may have taken themselves out of that fifth spot.
06:56Around the big ones.
06:57And a wrist shot to the net.
06:58Vesey has stopped again.
07:00By the goaltender Jari.
07:02Wow.
07:03What a save.
07:04He has made some huge saves.
07:05Big, big time saves.
07:06Tristan Jari.
07:08It was mano a mano.
07:10Vesey and Jari.
07:11As Vesey left hand shot.
07:13Camped out to the left of Tristan Jari.
07:15So when this pass comes to Vesey.
07:17He doesn't one time it.
07:18He stops it.
07:19Then shoots it.
07:20That allowed Jari to move from his right to his left.
07:23Get square to Vesey.
07:24And make the save.
07:26And you're not even going to get the goaltender off.
07:29Buck shot into the Rangers in.
07:31And Jari never moved.
07:32Big one's had no chance for the extra attacker.
07:35Down the ice it goes.
07:36Pittsburgh territory.
07:38Icing will be called.
07:39But time has run out.
07:41And that's it.
07:42Tonight here the New York Rangers have scored in the third.
07:46And they have defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins.
