! Mike Vernon started for the

pain. Steve Shields took over
but was injured with just 7 minutes left in the game, previously Montreal had
to switch goalies after 30 minutes also.
Now its 4-2 Toronto, 7 minutes left in the game.. Tigers 3rd string goalie Glen
Healy wasn’t at the arena for this game as he had requested to go home for
personnal issues… The Tigers then had to ask Janne Laukkanen to go
change and put on goalie gear… But the game had to be delayed for a while,
cause Laukkanen had to wait for Shields to be taken off the ice
and undressed, Mike Vernon’s equipment was way to small !! Finally Laukkanen arrived, looking
very shaky and a bit lost behind those big pads… The Tigers played a very tight defensive game for those final
minutes and allowed just 4 very long rang shots. Laukkanen stopped them all and the Tigers held on to win
it 4-2.
