62.   The first was when Leetch lost his stick and possession of the puck at the blue line in a joust with Bertuzzi.

63.   The Golden Brett skated despite a sore groin and flicked pucks at the net from every angle.

64.   The play started at the other end when Islander defenseman Mathieu Schneider lost the puck at the blue line to Adam Graves.

65.   The scoring play developed when defenseman Colin White corralled the puck at the blue line and made a perfect pass to left wing Patrik Elias.

67.   They hit posts and gunned the puck at the net.

68.   They just let them happen, firing the puck at Roy every chance they had and charging the net in search of rebounds.

69.   They need to simply play the game, to send the puck at the net and to see what happens.

70.   This one was set up by Kevin Hatcher, who gobbled up a loose puck at the left point before jumping into the rush.
