Back to EpisodesSHORTHANDED: Brett Howden goal in 2nd OT give VGK a 3-2 series lead
Description
Brett Howden scored his second shorthanded goal in as many games, this time in the second overtime period, as VGK walks off a 5-4 home win to take a 3-2 series lead over the Utah Mammoth. Mitch Mar55ner had the helper on the game-winner as he won a battle in the corner, the puck squirted free and Howden produced the winning goal. Howden's walk-off might have overshadowed a Pavel Dorofeyev hat trick. His last goal was with 52.7 seconds remaining in regulation and it sent the game into over. Dorofeyev started last night's game on the third line after being benched the final 13-minutes of regulation in Game 4 Tuesday night. His game-tying goal came as Carter Hart was pulled so VGK could go 6-on-5. Utah again had difficulties clearing the puck. We also talk about the fourth line struggles in Game 5. Nic Dowd was the lone bright spot winning 15 of 25 faceoffs. But the line was a -4 and all three players finished at the bottom of the Hockey Stat Card.
