Another upset tonight! Montreal beat Washington 3-2 in the first overtime period! Halak made 45 saves for the Habs, while Theodore made 35 saves for Washington.
Ovechkin was a total nonfactor in the game. He had no shots on net and his giveaway led to the second Montreal goal. Perhaps he thought it was the Olympics again and felt he needed to pull a vanishing act again?

Buffalo beat Boston 2-1. I guess the referees forgot the axiom of the playoffs, which is to place your whistle in your pocket unless it is a blatant penalty. Looking at the scorecard, I can't help but wonder if the refs calling Boston on 4 straight penalties in the third cost them any chance of tying the game up.

Vancouver and LA are currently tied 2-2 with about 15 minutes left in the third period.
