The Vancouver Canucks topped the Boston Bruins by a score of 3-2 Saturday night in Vancouver. Alex Burrows potted the game-winning goal just 11 seconds into the first overtime period on a quick wrap around, beating a sliding Tim Thomas and a lackluster show of defense by B's captain Zdeno Chara.
After going down 1-0 in the first, the Bruins were able to rally in the second off of goals from Mark Recchi (the oldest player to ever have a goal in the Finals) and Milan Lucic. Recchi's goal was also significant for coming while the Bruins were on the man advantage, their first PP goal after going 0-6 in game 1.
Both goalies made few mistakes, with Luongo stopping 28 of 30 shots and Thomas letting in three goals on 31 shots.
The Bruins now face a 2 game deficit heading back to Boston for game 3 Monday night at 7:30.
