All-Time Stanley Cup Playoffs Semifinals
(5) '81-82 Islanders 2, (1) '76-77 Canadiens 1 (2OT)
MONTREAL-- In a game dominated by penalties, powerplay goals, and dominating goalies it was a even strength goal just 4 seconds into the second OT that gave the Islanders the win in Game 5 and a win away from the All-Time Stanley Cup Finals. The Islanders' Billy Smith had a 43 for 44 night against the Canadiens' Ken Dryden's 45 for 47 performance that was ultimately ruined by Bryan Trottier's goal in OT. With a 3 games to 2 lead, the Islanders look like they might have a second consecutive upset in store, but the Canadiens came back from down 3-2 in the Quarterfinals and mustn't be counted out until they're eliminated.
Goals
New York: Mike Bossy, Bryan Trottier
Montreal: Steve Shutt
Assists
New York: Clark Gillies, Stefan Persson, John Tonelli
Montreal: Larry Robinson, Guy Lafleur
