Colorado at Tampa Bay

Game Seven Forced By Osgood

He was up to his tricks again today as Chris Osgood closed the door allowing only 1 goal on 30 Colorado shots, game 7 was forced and will take place tommorow in Colorado.

Game 6 was a thriller that went down to the wire in a defensive battle, the Bolts held a 1-0 lead after two periods but the Av's evened things up early in the 3rd, the stage was then set for Chris Drury.

He calls it the biggest goal of his career and in all ways it was, Chris Drury beat the av's d-men to a dump in and wrapped the puck around the net sliding it right between Turek's legs. From their on the show was Osgoods as he shut the door turning aside 11 of 12 attempts from Colorado in the 3rd.

POST GAME COMMENTS:

Chris Drury, "What can I say I just wanted to beat him to the puck then once I got it I figured I should try to wrap it quick, what do ya know it worked, easily the biggest goal I have ever scored..... so far"

Turek, "I am very dissappointed, I just wasn't expecting him to wrap it around that quick I didn't have my stick in the right place and it certainly cost us."
