"Looks like he might wanna go to the bench." "MIKE:" "Tolliver is gonna head that way." "Backup for the Penguins is Ken Wregget." "What's the matter?" "Coach, I really feel like shit." "I don't think I can goal." "Go to the locker room." "Wregget!" "Get in there." "PLAYER:" "Let's go, Kenny." "MAN ON PA:" "Now in goal for Pittsburgh, Number 31, Ken Wregget."

"He's gonna come out." "He'll challenge." "Tolliver hits his head on the ice, and he's hurt, but play continues." "The puck gets free." "The Penguins have command of it." "And the Penguins still trail by only one." "Tolliver hit his head so hard that his kids will be born dizzy." "This is Chicago on the attack." "(GRU NTS)" "What a save by Brad Tolliver!" "That has to be the save of the year!" "He ought to get five-to-ten for robbing the Hawks on that to keep the Penguins within a goal." "What's amazing to me, Paul, the fact that he's been sick." "He didn 't challenge much in this game tonight." "Now all of a sudden, he comes up with the save of the year." "No question about it, that is his biggest save ever." "Tolliver makes a little move out, in front of the net." "What's he doing?" "He just slammed Dubinsky!" "T olliver, what the fuck are you doing?" "He gave him a right cross and knocked him down." "He's gonna get a game misconduct and a fine." "He's put his team shorthanded." "The Penguins now, are really in the hole." "I don't believe this." "PAUL:" "This has been a strange night for Tolliver." "I don 't know what he's up to, Mike." "T olliver, that's a $1,000 fine!" "Get out of there!" "Who the hell are you?" "What the hell..." "Ysebaert on the rebound." "He'll turn and shoot." "Less than three minutes to go." "MIKE:" "He'll have to find the puck." "And he does." "Off with the puck he goes!" "Penguins center."
