The puck goes into the Cairo zone...
CHELIOS and OATES go into the corner for it.
Whoooa!!
What a hit!
CHELIOS CRUSHED OATES into the boards!
Now he's got the puck, and looks across the
ice... SHANAHAN bumps CHELIOS, and takes
possession... CHELIOS pins SHANAHAN to the
boards... They scrap to get the puck free,
But the referee blows the play dead... Faceoff.
SANDSTROM and FEDOROV are ready for the faceoff.
The puck is dropped
It's controlled by GONCHAR.
GONCHAR attempts a pass...
OATES with the puck, and he looks for a play...
OATES escapes his check... And moves in for a
SHOT! CHELIOS separates OATES from the puck.
That should make the coach smile.
HALLER controls for Cairo.
HALLER starts the attack with a quick pass.
It's INTERCEPTED by GONCHAR!
He fires a pass.
He finds OATES wide open in front!
OATES SHOOTS!!
It's SAVED by HIRSCH!
The puck is loose in front!!
HALLER tries to clear the puck!
And HALLER lofts the puck to center ice!
That was a close call in front
GONCHAR controls the puck for Wawa.
As his teammates try to get onside.
GONCHAR skates back towards his own blue line.
Now he passes across ice...
