Seattle, WA (AP) - The Inside Shots nearly lived up to their name, getting 12
inside shots on goaltender Roberto Luongo. But as luck would have it, none of
their four goals came from such a shot and a fifth and sixth goal never
materialized. Three out of the four were taken from the outside, starting with
a nasty split goal by fourth line winger, Steve Thomas [OS2:SP1:G9]. In fact the
Shots' fourth line would cause more damage than any of their lines, scoring two
goals.

Late in the third period, Serge Aubin scored his first of the season when he kicked
in a rebound. Trying to protect their lead, Seattle's Mark Recchi allowed Dave
Scatchard to maneuver around him. A quick shot that sailed wide arrived on Aubin's
stick. Taking the quick shot, he was stoned by Luongo, but the rebound was there
sitting on the doorstep. Not wasting an opportunity, Aubin knocked it pass Luongo
to bring the Shots to within two goals [REB3:SP1:G16].

Spotting the Inside Shots a two-goal lead in the first period, Seattle battled back
to score five goals of their own before getting sandwiched between another two
Inside Shots goals. Their first came when Eric Staal slipped an easy save past
Belfour [IS6:GR7]. The goal from Seattle's fourth line was the answer to Steve
Thomas' fourth line goal. Even more exciting to the home crowd was that it was
scored in the waning seconds of the first period while the Shots held a 2-0 lead.
Following Staal's goal, Seattle's primary lines started to light the scoreboard up.

"With the exception of our first game against Newark, we started the season off
well," said Brian Leetch. "With a stretch of five consecutive wins, we hope to
out-work our opponents and stretch that record to six or more games."

While Legace plays on top of his head against the Hawks, Belfour and Luongo played
shaky games against one another. Combined they stopped just six out of thirteen
goalie ratings. Their unstoppable split goal percentage was even worse.

"All I can say is that we played one goal dumber than they did," Belfour said
about his performance. "Swiss cheese may have had a better game than we did. But
it's to be expected since both teams have such talented snipers."
