Backstrom fires Caps past Bruins
NICKLAS Backstrom's overtime goal in the second extra period gave the Washington Capitals a tough 2-1 victory over the Boston Bruins on Saturday, tying their first-round National Hockey League playoff series at 1-1 on Saturday.
Ottawa, St Louis and Chicago also got series-evening wins.
The Senators needed overtime to defeat the New York Rangers 3-2, the Blues blanked the San Jose Sharks 3-0 and the Blackhawks outlasted the Phoenix Coyotes 4-3, also in overtime.
In Boston, Backstrom grabbed a bobbling puck in the left circle and fired a shot past Bruins netminder Tim Thomas two minutes and 56 seconds into the second overtime session to stun the Stanley Cup champions.
"It feels good," Backstrom said. "But I don't really care who scores in the playoffs. We're a team and we work together."
Capitals coach Dale Hunter tweaked his lines, swapping out Jason Chimera to unite Marcus Johansson with Backstrom and Alexander Semin. The move paid off handsomely when Johansson found an open Backstrom for the winning shot.
