"Ryan Callahan ended it just 2:55 into overtime, completing a dramatic 4-3 comeback win over the Carolina Hurricanes and locking up a third straight playoff appearance. Earlier, Brad Richards had forced overtime by scoring with 2:57 left in regulation after New York had squandered a 2-0 lead and slipped behind an already eliminated Carolina team. Derek Stepan and Derick Brassard provided the early offense in the first period, while Henrik Lundqvist turned aside 18 shots in goal."
"The tying goal came in unusual fashion, as Richards fired a shot from the blue line that ricocheted sharply off the end boards, struck goalie Dan Ellis in the skate, and deflected into the net. Moments later, Callahan sealed the victory by collecting the puck along the boards, driving toward the net, and snapping a shot off the far post and in, sparking an eruption of celebration on the ice."
