Article Excerpt:
PORTLAND, Maine -- Somewhere between the first and second hop, an exhausted Simon Ferguson turned his head and turned tail for the Portland Pirate bench. When the puck that Ferguson had so purposefully dumped in to the Providence zone took it’s final bounce and slithered through the pads of Bruin goalie Tuukka Rask, the hard-nosed Pirate winger knew something good must have happened. In fact without even looking, Ferguson had delivered the Pirates a 3-2 overtime win, to square their best of seven Atlantic Division final series at two games apiece. Portland which suffered severe thrashings in the first two games, now have a chance to take a 3-2 lead, when the teams meet in Game 5, here, tomorrow night. Thanks in large part to Ferguson’s gambit, the hockey equivalent of the Hail Mary.
