Blackhawks Take Game 1 In 3OT Thriller
CHICAGO (AP) Corey Crawford topped Tuukka Rask in the only stat that matters.
The Chicago Blackhawks goalie was outstanding in overtime - all three periods of it - and his stinginess in the net kept his teammates in the game long enough to finally overcome the Boston Bruins 4-3 in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup finals. He made 51 saves, including 29 in overtime, before Andrew Shaw ended the game with 7:52 left in the third OT.
Game 2 is Saturday night in Chicago.
