Zetterlund again!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Stevens forces a bad pass on the forecheck, Gauthier worked against pressure and mad a good move to get loose enough to get a pass to an open Zetts in the faceoff circle, who took the pass and shot all in one motion.

2-1 Comets.

Comets draw another penalty.
Holtz is the 6th attacker. Skates it from his own zone all the way into the Crunch zone and falls down ruining the 6 on 5 chance.
He fell down on his shootout effort the other night as well.
Maybe something in his skates he needs to look into.

Holtz a 1- timer misses.
Holtz another 1- timer over the crossbar. Squeezing composite shreds out of his stick.

PP ends. Those 2 shots early on comprised the whole thing.

I will say this. Theo isn't a minus in the O-zone. He has the ability to walk the blue line and gets down to the high slot for centering passes.

D-zone is still a bit of an adventure.

Holtz stopped in front while being dragged down off the right side.

Comets get 3 good chances in the final 20 seconds and with 03 to go Talvitie was hooked with a stick to the face and Comets get a 4-minute PP.
3:57 of PP on fresh ice. A real key opportunity starting a 3rd period while only leading 2-1. Great chance to stretch out this lead.

Have to keep an eye on the Crunch keepoer if the Comets can stretch this lead. Coach Benoit Groulx has had success vs the Comets by pulling his keeper with 6 minutes or more left in the 3rd. He has no concerns for being scored against since he believes the game is lost at that point anyways. It has gotten them back into the game and also lost it for them by more.

Gauthier on a breakaway shoots over the net.

Comets sending rubber at the net from anywhere and everywhere but not scoring.

Last half minute can't get set up. There it goes down the ice again. And down the ice again.

Legace commits highway robbery on Deleo as Holtz sent it cross crease to Deleo and a split glove save sliding across the crease.

Now Zetterlund comes up short as Legace is on the spot again.

Kaberge stooped in the crease.

The PP ends and Wolcott just misses shooting it mover the net.

Holtz rips a shjot over the crossbar. He is firing from everywhere in an effort to stop his skid.

Crunch hit the post/crossbar. Looked like it was in and out in a flash.

Replay says it didn't go in and refs won't look at it in spite of Groulx's adamant pleas.

Hotlz fires again on a 2 on 1 with Deleo and misses again. D_man might have extended his stick far enough to tip it.

Clarke stopped on the doorstep on a pass from Laberge.

Comets working like dogs to clear the puck out of their zone.

TV TO 5:51 to go

Hasn't it been forever since the last one?

Watched clocks just don't tick when you need them to.
When you need to score it goes in a flash.

Now Mitens makes a game saver at this point. Pulls the rebound in while fully extended flat on his face.

Zetterlund and Gauthier on a 2 on 1 and Z's pass is tipped away from Gauthier.

Shaya brings up the tendency for the Crunch to pull their keeper with lots of time left.

Comets running all over their zone to help Mitens, but Mitens is called on to make another one.
