1993R1G5 Vancouver Canucks vs Winnipeg Jets (HD HQ CBC). Game 5. 1993 NHL Playoffs.

[Music] the heroes of the Winnipeg Vancouver Smite division semi-final series beginning with Canucks Captain Trevor Lindon who accounted for the winning goal in game number [Applause] one the Russian rocket sent the Canucks into orbit in game two P albur gave Vancouver the Victory and a two- nothing series lead back in Winnipeg for game three white noise was a factor and propelled team salani to a hattick the Jets were back in the series but it was suddenly quiet in the White House when Greg Adams scored first early in the first period of game four on Sunday then an unlikely hero Sergio meso scored the winner in the second period the Jets did all they could to win including hold their own in a physical game contact was frequent and more often than not the Jets were the aggressors but no matter what they did they could not penetrate Kirk McLean’s net minding this was playoff goal tending at its best mlan emerged to Hero delivering the Canucks to a 3-1 win and a 3-1 series lead they’re on the verge of advancing but the head coach is cautious remembering well who led this series 3-1 a year [Music] ago Pat Quinn’s counterpart can’t afford to worry about the status of the series John paddock’s jets are down to one game there would be better places for the Jets to attempt a comeback than Pacific h as CM we’re dating back to last year’s playoffs they are one and eight the crowd here tonight expects the Canucks to move on to the SMI division final for the second time in two years and it looks like they’re dressed for the occasion assuming it’s a Jet’s funeral good evening everybody and welcome to the 1993 Stanley Cup Playoffs on molon Hockey Night in Canada with the odds favored the Canucks tonight absolutely Jets Trail three games to one and never in their history have they won a playoff game in which they faced elimination from the series several teams in the past few years have come from three to1 deficits to win Canucks did it to the Jets just a year ago but if the Jets are to do it this year they’ll have to win two games in this building beginning with tonight what the Canucks want more of in game five is the balanced attack they have had throughout this series it’s been a lowc scoring Affair so far but Trevor Lyndon and pav albur have led them with six points each the two players expected to leave the Jets attack half but most of teani’s points came in a single game aside from that he’s been shut down and that’s been a key to the series as has the nonproduction of Alexis jnov and of Genny davidov who were 20 goal scorers during the season neither have a single point in this series davidov won’t get a chance to get any tonight because he’s been scratched of course nonproduction of the Jets has a whole lot to do with the goal tending of K mlan especially the way he played on Sunday at Winnipeg raised his game a few levels and set a standard that Bob essence of the Jets May well have to meet poot van a few minutes later on just their second shot of the game the Lea scor Dave andrachuk finished the two-on-one with a hard wrist shot andrachuk a 50 goal scorer during the season had his fifth of the playoffs the wings took the lead on a three on- three Rush after this Paul isart fooled the Leafs with a drop pass to Sergey federov and he put it by pot van this with 2 minutes to go in the period Wings led by one they were on the power play 2 and 1/2 minutes into the second Puck loose off the draw went to Ray Shepard who at most to pot Van’s net to give Detroit a 3-1 lead 4 minutes later looked like the route was on federov fed Dino cicerelli who was behind the lead’s defense cicerelli is first of the playoffs for a 4-1 Wings lead but then Toronto start at the climb back Keith Primo leveled Rob Pearson behind the net Dave ellot scored leagues were within two there were 3 minutes to go in the second period when ellot brought the Leafs to within one looked like he was just trying to put it on the net but it went past Chev day and it was 43 8 minutes to go in regulation time Wendel Clark shot went in off yees rin’s head game tied at four and so extra time required to decide who takes a 3-2 series lead they’re in overtime at Joe Lewis we understand the Leafs have just scored we’ll get the winning goal for you in just a moment so Toronto takes a 3-2 series lead at the saddle doome in Calgary Kings and Flames down to a best of three the collective scoring slump of the Los Angeles Stars ended when jimy Carson fed Thomas sandstrom on a two-on-one Kings had the lead and that was one of about four good chances Kings had to that point in the game with five and a half minutes to go on the period the Kings went up two nothing Mike donelly in alone on Jeff Reese for his second of the playoffs started looking worse for the Flames when Pat coner took a quick pass in front of Reese and scored on a low shot 3 nothing Los Angeles heading into this game the Kings didn’t have a goal from any of their big guns grey sandstrom Granada robai or Curry sandstrom scores tonight the others have yet to be heard from someone will take a 3-2 series lead tonight it will be the Kings if the Flames can’t come from behind now the winning goal from Joe Lewis arena in Detroit early in overtime Mike Felino for the Leafs Leafs at one point in this game trailed 4-1 battle back to tie it at four to force the extra time this had been a home I series until this point when Felino gave the lease the win at Joe Lewis arena in Detroit tonight and so Toronto and something of an upset takes a 3-2 series lead and a 5-4 overtime win tonight now let’s send your ringside for Action in this game here are Steve armad and John Garrett thank you thank you Scott we’re moments away from the beginning of game five here the Pacific

game five here at the Pacific Dum Jets on the break of elimination shot into the connect Zone Shannon chasing after it leaves it sh shot mlan save off of eagles another shot to well out that’s wide at the mark this is Lyndon the conects captain loses it to Shannon Shannon fires it around the boards mlan has to play it knocks it back into the corner Shannon there for Winn Trevor Lindon to Jeff cour

in dear anov now playing forward for John Paddock along with Alexis jov and Ty DOI a shot from ulanov that’s wide ulof recovers his Center Ice Bon across to Phil Howley this is janock Marie Craven plays it to Greg Adams Jets keep it in shot from tyomi and the CL comes up with the sail in the series sits and watches from the Press Box Face Off In the canu Zone they win the draw shot blocked in front rven can’t get to it Adams does plays it for litster litster dumps it in down the left side Duma tried to find king with the pass knocked into the jet Zone Mike Lawler skates behind his own goal Lawler trying to find John Bruce play on the end boards now lster skates in picks up the loose butt gets it ahead to Murray Craven and we’re going to get our first penalty of the game good four checking by the Winnipeg Jets creates this penalty and it’s a Vancouver holding penalty Bill mccre let the first one go and then call Greg Adams on the second one so the Winnipeg power play unit will go to working the time 305 now here’s Adams in the corner and you see mccre hasn’t got his arm up yet but as the Jets keep forcing good floor checking now look at Adams he’s got him pin pinned and then finally brings him down and up goes the arm and the Winnipeg Jets have a power play opportunity and when you’re not scoring goals and the Jets aren’t scoring goals you have to count on your special teams you see four out of 16 for the power play and to get ahead first goal in every game is one and the Jets would love to have a lead here at the Coliseum and John petock decides to go with kachu Steen and Tam mus salani up front Frederick olison and Phil Howley are by the pointman for this penalty situation Trevor Lindon gets it to Gary vul and he Scoops it down the ice for the Vancouver conects 1646 to play opening period no score game five Canucks and jets Howley gets the shot away easy said for [Applause] ML and it’s cleared down the ice by Yuki lum the canu will give up that shot every time as long as Kurt mlan can see it the way he’s played in this series he might have let in maybe one bad goal in game three the other ones all quality shots he hasn’t let in the bad goal and was the difference in game four offside called against the Winnipeg Jets and the Canucks are complaining trying to say well none of the Jets touched it and that’s the prerogative of the linesman to make that call Ron aseltine saying well okay they’re offside and the Vancouver conu lines going with success staying the same as Murray Craven played on that line with Hunter and Gary vul in the last game Dixon Wards there now and vul is playing with nedb and meso although vul was up there in the first shift with Craven the defense stays the same Pat Quinn shortened his bench in game four only use four defenseman in the third period scratches Yu Slater up roer back in and once again the Canucks are able to clear 110 remaining in the penalty to Greg Adams as Phil Howley leads the power play for the Jets T num shot behind Curry clears in front seof gets it behind Howley and the length of the ice shamov starts things out for the win Jets salani salani pulled down by [Applause] Lum salani back to the point to ton Numa Howley one times it high salani tried to get it back to ton Numan good pressure by Dana meren to force that bat pass by TAMU salani Robert Dirk talked about it when he sat out last game not giving salani any space to operate there we saw m right on back to the point Phil howy plays it to T num Newman shot kicked aside by Kirt mcro B babage kept in by Howley Howley shot this is Greg Adams the penalty is over teams at even strength Gary V with a shot and essenza goes down to cover up with his is pads 1440 to play opening period in a scoreless tie on a beautiful night in [Applause] Vancouver Gary vul with the shot and a good save by Essa look at where he is top of the crease good angle and he controls the rebound I’d like to let some defensemen Play Goals sometime when they back in and let the guy shoot it from right in the middle and then they look around say oh yeah that was an easy save spoken like a former goal tender which you were for the Vancouver Harford Whalers you don’t want to start mentioning all those teams to his we don’t have enough time don’t have enough time face off in the jet Zone taken by Chris King King plays it off the board Robert Dirk FL it ahead but the Jets have control olivon runs into heavy traffic at the BL line Canucks Come Away shot by Dixon Ward from well out gliter into Sergio meso gliter plays it in on the right side Essa comes out of control Fredy olison being watched by Messa Eagles runs into Dixon War heso fighting for it on the end boards Ward to Peter N turns and shoots wide Dixon Ward has it for the connects Ward backhander Esa makes the save meso good pressure from Vancouver teams at even [Applause] strength shot down the ice litster is there litster dumps it in right side NV giving Chase Lyndon trailing on the play and then Lum shoots it in and we’re going to get a penalty and it’s Trevor Lyon who’s going to get it and Lyndon set the pace early with some good hits and here he’s going to the box as bill mccre sent this one was getting a little too rambunctious for his liking now why Trevor Lyon right there with the left elbow right under the chin of Igor ulanov and the Jets get their second power play opportunity of this first period and once again John Paddock has the big line of Keith kachu Thomas Steen and Tam salani up front for Winnipeg Housley and ton Numan on the point Tempo newmanan instead of Frederick olison it’s usually Frederick olon on the point and he has struggled during this playoff series and for the Winnipeg J to be successful you look at some key players Salan jamn olison newmanan and Howley Lum seof buray and Dana muren will try to kill off the penalty for the Vancouver conects 1319 remaining opening period still looking for that all important first goal the team that has scored first in every game has gone on to win it this is Howley just turned aside by mlan salani to kachu Jets controlling salani back to ton num back to salani salani being watched by Lum Lum wins that battle unable to clear Howley keeps it in fires it towards the net Salat for the Jets back to newmanan salani tried to find a man with a pass it was broken up and then backhanded into the stands by yuril Lum now to Scott Oak and an update Steve the second period in Calgary Luke robati would hurt the Kings with penalties in game three help them here to a 4 nothing lead robai 63 goals in the season finally has his first of the playoffs the kings are in control in Calgary fitting for a 3-2 series [Music] lead and you wonder if Mike Vernon was healthy enough to play and coach Dave King just decided to go with Reese who had played very well in Los Angeles or whether Vernon couldn’t play tonight I know there’d be lots of questions about that if the score continues to pile up 105 remaining in the power play for the Winnipeg Jets and that’s Jam off playing without a helmet Shannon Jam off back to Frederick olison cross to Howley olison back to janma olis shot score Darren Shannon in front with Gerald dick and Darren Shannon got his stick on that one Frederick olison we said Frederick olison and Howley on the point they feed olison and olison lets it go and watch Shannon in front Gerald did it gets position here but watch Shannon s in front of dii and then get the stick on and tip it by Kirk mlan right hand shot all of a sudden perfect pass from jam knov and there’s a tip in no chance for Kirk to play a big goal for the Winnipeg Jets as they strike first now look at Sharon in front control of his stick and Di had him pretty well tied up but didn’t have that stick tied up and Shannon gets it by K play and that’s the first goal of the playoffs for Darren Shannon came into this game with four assists but what a big goal it is as we mentioned the team that has scored first in each game has gone on to win the contest 1206 to play opening period Jets on top of Vancouver one to nothing DOI tried to find somebody in the middle Dirk takes Eagles into the boards lster head to Ward olison now for the Winnipeg Jets loses it and then gets it back almost a big turnover there for the Vancouver conects taomi at the blue line runs into Robert Dirk dumped in by litster and bill mccre has his arm up penalty coming up to the Winnipeg Jets their first of the game so when we come back the Vancouver Canucks will have the man advantage triling one nothing Ty doy takes a high sticking penalty on Doug lster that’s not the play it’s when they’re coming back now watch DOI hook lster right here over the shoulder and around the neck and that’s where Bill mccre called it high sticking the conu power play has been one of their sore spots in this series and the power play starts in the jet Zone this is Greg Adams being watched by Kennedy to B Craven back to buray buray trying to find some space gets it to Adams silette back to buray buray cross eyes to Craven shot from babage Adams is there but he couldn’t drive it behinds essenza Kennedy comes out with it for the Winnipeg Jets bavage for the conuts at his own Blue Line bavage shoots it in left side Shannon around the boards and down the ice next power play two for 20 in the series and one of those two came when they had a long Twan Advantage it has been one problem area they’ve put Yuri slager in the lineup trying to get it going they just can’t seem to get much pressure with the man Advantage 56 seconds remaining in the man Advantage for the Vancouver KS veret couldn’t find anybody and and again it’s cleared This Time by luchano GS bavage starts things out for Vancouver 37 seconds remaining in the man Advantage Eagles and again it’s cleared by the Jets and the Canucks make a change but when the Puck’s going back into your own Zone with only 30 seconds left it’s hard to get new players on the ice and mount any kind of attack this is portol working down the right side Lum Lum shot save essenza couron off and again essenza was in the right place clip R back to Lon Lum one time off the boards right to courel teams at even strike now couro winds up fires wide litster tries to keep it in C against t DOI he’s back on for the Jets Lum fires it in Cliff ronning passes in front no one there and the Jets clear Jets very slack going back that would have been an icing call in Sergey bowon just Lo back and Ronnie got there first courel leades it for Dixon Ward playing and only his second playoff game chance for Di and he fires it away the puts it in we’re TI at one now watch Bob play this one off the glass Gerald dick shot goes over the net and off the glass but watch essenson he tries to bat it with the stick right there and he bats it in his own net bad hop for the Jets and Bob Essa here comes a shot now watch Essa tries to get it with a stick knock his Gerald s you talk about a goenda that would be a classic example there I’m sure that essenza would have played that far differently than he did Gerald Dix first of the playoffs W and courel assisting on the D goal and coming at 1110 of the opening period we are tied at one Howley off the boards looking for kachaka lumay touches it and the winipeg Jets are called for icing a oneall tie here at the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver Gerald Dy gets his first of the playoff series and watch this come off the boards and look at Bob essenza he wants to play it in the corner you could see from the turn of a stick but he took it off the paddle and put it over his shoulder and in the face off in the jet Zone with 820 remaining to play opening period and a 1-1 tie kucks lead the series three games to one Peter Ned plays it to the corner and then the Jets are able to clear this is Robert Dirk who didn’t play in game four out the hip injury he fires it in that was on the offside we did find out that was a hip injury Robert Dirk wouldn’t tell anybody what it was after the game even he had sore ribs missed a three-week period during the regular season some people speculated it might be a shoulder injury and then maybe a hip injury as tyomi comes to the bench the clock is cheering the fans to cheer here and the fans are getting louder at the Pacific Coliseum they call it white noise at the arena in Winnipeg here tonight is being buildt as towel power in combination with black Thunder this is meso quick shot wide of the Mark Dirk into the corner Dixon Ward unable to get it and the Jets Come Away With It King can’t handle that pass lster just knocks it back into the jet Zone Dean Kennedy the Jets Captain fires up the middle looking for Stu Barnes Dirk fires it back in good bounce off the boards right to Essen and then it’s cleared down the length of the ice Dirk races back to touch it and the Winnipeg Jets are called for icing now down to Scott Oak and an update St Calgary robai and Gretzky suddenly on fire for the Kings Gretzky assisted on robotti first goal here when two onone with him robotti scores his second of the game five nothing Kings at the Saddle Dome and this looks like an unconditional surrender by the Flames especially after the S the Flames played pretty well even the game they lost in Los Angeles lots of pressure on Rob stabber stabber back in net for the Kings and it looks like it’s all Kings in Calgary it’s the kind of performance the winipeg Jets would like on the road here the Coliseum tonight to stay alive we are tied at one 727 remaining to play opening period sov keeps it in Murray Craven against Sergey B Craven in front SC and the Winnipeg gets talked about turnovers turnovers here’s the turnover and Murr Craven with a great pass to pav albur but it’s a Jets turnover look at Sergey Bouton he’s bumped off the puck by Murray Craven and then Craven with a good backhand pass to B Phil howley’s in the corner both defenseman in the same Corner C gold there’s all by himself of the playoffs scored by number 10 Bay the assist to number 32 Murray Craven pass in front and Greg Adams couldn’t get a stick on it only one assist on the goal that to Murray Craven BB’s fourth of the playoff season as the conck go in front to one Shannon pass in front Howley got a stick on a wrap around attempt and M play this a to block it buray comes up with a rebound head to Adams three on two buray tried to play it back between his skates couldn’t and the Jets come back TAMU salani backhand pass in front and cleared by Ronnie this is Pavo bur one-on-one against Tempo Numan pass to ronning ronning tries to jam it past essenza and essenza comes up with a big save and Alexis jnov is getting a tripping penalty after the play as Ronnie went in all by himself and Bob essens meet the save here’s a two-on-one nice pass buy to ronning right here and it sets ronning in and watch Bob essensa make the Save Right Here Stacks the pads Jam off tripped Greg Adams at the Blue Line as it would have been a three onone and jam knov gets a tripping [Music] penalty and the Vancouver Canucks set up the line of cordel [Music] ronning and Dixon Ward litster and babage will work the points roning gets it back to babage Ronnie along the side Boors dumped into the corner [Applause] T Eagles off the glass but not up lster able to keep it in couro back hands it to Ronnie Ronnie passes to Dixon Ward Port tried the onetime missed let stre to Ronnie Ronnie tied up by ton Numan can’t clear it but he gets some support from Eagles and it’s knocked down the ice the Jets could play with the same kind of defensive intensity at full strength as they do at short-handed strength they’d be a lot better off 103 remaining in the miner to jam off clearance shot there is blocked ronning has for the Canucks in the jet Zone Shannon pulled down by ronning ronning puts up his arms as if to say not me YY Luma neatly knocked Away by Mike law 40 seconds remaining in the conu power play this is Trevor Lyon can’t control a bouncing Puck and he takes himself in offside and Trevor Lyon’s complaining but Greg Adams was in down the other side ahead of Lyndon as Lyndon had problems with it Rolling Puck here’s the series in review the Vancouver Canucks 4-2 could have been a lot higher in game one as the Canucks really outplayed the Jets in game two 3-2 pav B snuck away on a face off to get the winner V Jets had a commanding lead and then hung on for the 54 win and Kirk McLean took over in game four and herk hasn’t really had to do too much here in the first period as after that flooky goal it’s been all Vancouver 451 to play opening period conu leading 2-1 go-ahead goal from pavb his fourth of the playoffs Lawler being watched in the corner manages to get it up this is Eagles and a Nifty defensive play by Yury lum head to Lyndon three on two Adams tries to get the pass back to Lyndon but it’s high Bay digging for it Bay gets it two seconds remaining in the man Advantage Yury Lum [ __ ] B one time and essenzo was able to see that from the moment it left bur stick and pull it out of the air 415 remaining to play opening period Canucks on top of the Jets 21 welcome back to the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver Steve arm along with John Garrett in the booth Scott Oak is in the intermission Studio the face off in the jet Zone did slides it into the corner seov tried to get to it but couldn’t kach chuck has it for the Jets didck takes it in over the Blue Line tries to find Gary V with a pass V being worked over by Sergey bton Housley for the Jets ahead to Thomas Ste into his skates and V gets it plays it to Sela back to V V with a quick shot off the skate of Howley Thomas steam on the boards ful has it for Vancouver plays it back to the point babage with the shot not intended to go on the net just simply into the corner seof against Bouton couple of rushes shot on net ESS it turns it the side bavage off the glass takes a funny hot played behind the Winnipeg goal Sergey bton sof goes down and we’re going to get a penalty to Phil Howley of the Winnipeg Jets for tripping that will not please his head coach John Paddock and Phil Howley let his stick go as seov was all tied up I don’t know whether he’s going to call it tripping or interference either way Phil Howley goes to the Penalty Box and the Vancouver kcks have another Power Play they call it hooking now watch right there howy catch a s off arm lets it Go and gets the hooking penalty he gave seov the opportunity by getting the stick on his arm and seov took that opportunity and Drew the penalty one of those cases where it could have been any one of the three hooking tripping or interference they settle on hooking all that means is that Vancouver will have the man Advantage for the next two minutes with Howley off 317 to play opening period Canucks leading Winnipeg 2 to one Vancouver lead the series three games to one and a win here tonight and it’s all over for the Winnipeg Jets and it’s hard to play catchup when you’re playing a man short all the time the Jets 6 minutes short out of the last 12 [Music] minutes Lyndon working this face off against Mike Eagles Grace scelo the veteran linesman he’s not going to fool around he gets both centerman out in comes Murray Craven and Alexis Jam this time it works Lindon to babage bavage with a shot traffic in front he I don’t know whether it’s Murray Craven or Trevor Lyon but Dave bavis does a good job with his shot from the point right along the ice looking for the tip in and traffic in front of Bob ERS I watch B good low shot he’s hoping for the tip in there’s Greg Adams there’s Trevor lyen there’s Murray Craven and I think it’s Trevor Lyon reaching around behind he gets it Bob essencea can’t find it and that might be Greg Adams goal as I don’t think Trevor lynon got to it either it’s one of those where we’re going to have to wait for the official announcement [Music] but the Canucks now lead by two with a power play goal as they do some repair to the ice just outside the conu BL line playoff scored on the power play by number eight Greg Adam there’s Greg Adams going to the net and watch Adams spin around and look at the puck it goes through Bob essenson into the net number 16 Trevor Lon Trevor Lyndon and Dave babage get the assists on the third power or third goal of the playoffs for Greg Adams his fifth point of the second season a big two-goal margin now for the Vancouver conects third goal for Greg Adams and you think of all the chances he’s had during this series he could have about six Steve could the Flames be on the their way back in Calgary they trailed five nothing new and Dy scored and here Frank nuil got his first of the series a furious scramble around Rob stabber muil shot found its way through 52 Kings with about 5 minutes to go in the second [Music] period and here at the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver it’s a two-goal lead for the Canucks 3-1 over the Jets with 250 remaining to play in the opening period the way La plays defense you never know if that five nothing lead is big enough lster with a shot from well out essenza got a piece of that but ESS is taking a pounding in [Applause] front seems like every time we turn around Essence is down and out for the count the shots were 55 at one time now 125 in favor of the Vancouver [Applause] kcks osen starting out for the Jets ahead to St barns Barnes goes left fires High into the center no jet able to get to it and then Canucks are able to clear teams at even strike 204 remaining to play first period here at the Pacific Coliseum Yi Lum rink wide to Lo he loses it tapon Numan for the winneg Jets plays it in the middle to Thomas steam Steen tried to find Tam salani with a pass picked off by Lum Ste knocks it down pass ahead to anaton seof and he back hands it into the jet Zone Mike Lawler behind his own neck being watched by Tim Hunter Lawler still has it ahead to Alex xam Jam working against Dana meren meren with a good play to knock the puck loose yery Lum ahead to Gary Vach two on two as Hunter on his right eles to shoot and it winds up in the STS coming up in our first Steve you’ll like this so many Europeans involved in hockey now there’s Yuri slagger and Peter nedved they’ve got Sergio meso and Jeff courel trying to teach them a few things about as they would say real football and watch slager handle it and then look at courel and messel not quite the same League I don’t know courau was doing a pretty good job there but Ned vet and Yuri slager certainly at home with a soccer ball of course many of the European teams uh trained with nothing but pucks and escape and knock the puck around just like they would a soccer ball and that’s how the Vancouver Canucks loosened up 90 minutes before game time here at the Pacific gal tonight this is B was off Wi AIG jet skap to Shannon Shannon dumps it in right side bavage over there to play it for Vancouver Jets have it pass in front and oh so close mlan sort of lost sight of it there for a second fell at his feet and the Canucks were able to clear another turnover [ __ ] bur back to Craven he tried to one time it a [Applause] Miss mlay lays it ahead to Murray Craven Craven dumps it in portel gives Chase working against ton Numa Michael Allard comes up with it for the Jets this is Robert Dirk off the boards ronning over there wins the chase but the Canucks can’t control ton Numa for the Winnipeg Jets starting out in his own Zone long lead pass he was looking for Chris King but he couldn’t find it this period is over and the Vancouver Conns with a two goal lead the score at the end of the first period conu three Jets one before they begin the Smite division final against either Calgary or Los Angeles of course that is presuming that they continue this pace against the Winnipeg Jets who no doubt about it have their backs to the wall Howley tried to dump it in salani was there deflected to DOI DOI shooting from a sharp angle Canuck’s able to clear this is Gary Baugh to semon seof tried to pass in front goes off of cley seof got it back and then fired it over the head of essenza seof unable to keep it in plays it to Yuki Luma opening seconds of the second period Vancouver leading winipeg 3-1 V working against Howley Jam intercepted by seof seof tried to get it to B but Jam was able to capitalize on his own mistak and again the Winnipeg Jets that cross ice pass in their own zoning games one and two it cost them dearly here in Vancouver jov and the reason we expect so much he had points in 14 of his last 15 games 25 points in those 15 games you expected him to do something in the playoffs Trevor Lindon shot not wide by much couro was at the corner of the crease but unable to do anything with it this is John dreu his pass intercepted by Ronnie and then ronning G away to Numa and then it’s knocked in by steam this is babage starting out for Vancouver at his own Blue Line babage dumps it in to the right side John Dru remember that great playoff year he had for the Washington Capitals almost beat the Rangers singlehandedly Trevor Lyndon plays it up along the boards for cliff ronning ronning tries to get it to coural Lawler beats him to it another giveway courel ulanov tried to deflect it back to his defenseman but almost gave it to courel KNX in front 3-1 and the fans they don’t know what to do when they announce the Calgary LA score they don’t know who they’d prefer to play in the next round should they get by the the Winnipeg Jets has been a pretty good rivalry between Vancouver and Calgary there’s a lot of emotion every time those two teams play although Calgary had great success against Vancouver this year and looking at it that way I think the kcks might prefer to play Los Angeles Vancouver wound up the season with a couple of impressive wins over Wayne Gretzky and Company both here at the Coliseum and down at the Great Western for Dean Kennedy Jet’s Captain behind his own goal [Applause] Adams in chased by Borat takes a hit from Eagles Eagles has it for the Jets tries to get the shot away Shannon now for winipeg Phill Howley goes behind the that Howley gets it again Howley tries to wrap around checks for Shannon and Shannon couldn’t put it on the net and there’s going to be a penalty against the Vancouver kxs good pressure Robert Dirk is going off for for roughing as Phil Howley jumped up into the play and set up shot behind the net that KS defensive coverage in the zone broke down and they took a penalty a glorious opportunity for Shannon as he was trying to find the far side it was open it was available but Shannon couldn’t find it couldn’t get it out Bill Hy look at Howley behind the net he’s trying to wrap around and it goes out to Shannon but look at Shannon’s stick is Tipp just the last second by Dirk good job by Robert Dirk after one game off to get back into shape the Jets only goal came on the power play as you see there Darren Shannon with a tip in and the Jets to get back into this game have to do something here Tam salani on the right side Alex shamov in the middle Shannon on the left side olison and Howley are on the points as the winipeg Jets begin this power play and the Canucks clear it down the ice not the way you’d like to start a power play especially with the face off in the conu zone Jam to olison olison loses it and it’s cleared down the ice by Trevor Lyon Hy starts out behind his own net this is Shannon at the connects Blue Line long shot wide Jam knock back behind the net to Shannon and again the Jets unable to control in the Vancouver Zone and now let’s go down to the studio and get an update from Scott o Steve it’s not over yet in Calgary the Flames are closing Brian scrin from behind the net to Chris dolquist who scores in a Precision wrist shot it’s a two-goal game now early in the third 5-3 Kings and Mike Vernon has started the third period in goal for the Flames looks much like the New York Islanders comeb back last night against the Washington Capitals where they fell a goal short Dale Hunter got an empty net but the capitals LED that one 5-1 and then hung hung on to win 64 here at the Pacific Coliseum tonight it’s the kuu on top by two 3-1 1643 to play second period seof to buray buray back hands it to no one tempo Numan there for the

him good Two on Two seov and B seov drove the defense back and then gave the drop pass to B and B had lots of room and time to let that one go on Bob essenson here’s a Two on Two and look at seov drives both defenseman deep and that enables Bay to have room he lets it go look at Bob asza he thought that one squeak through that’s why you wear that size 60 sweater Bob Esa wears a size 60 sweater you make sure you had that big sweater so that little space gets covered up and you catch a few that you don’t expect that little space paying dividends there for Bob Essen and the Winnipeg Jets Kennedy has it picked off by Craven this is vul working the end boards John dreu for the Jets and again the Jets unable to come out there’s a shot and essenza got his Pat in front of [Applause] that Barnes passing in the middle picked off by Yuki Lum Lum plays it ahead to V dreu from his own Blue Line ahead to St Barnes Barnes with the shot and Kirk mlan makes the save for Vancouver a beautiful late spring evening here in British Columbia we’ll be right back after this message that’s for the Winnipeg Jets in front of Kirk mlan and bill mccre has his arm up good pressure as you said Stephen the Canucks again have to take a penalty as the Winnipeg Jets cycle the puck down deep and it’s Sergio mimso going off for holding and the ks were fortunate that bill mccre deemed they had control here’s meso there with the hook and up goes Bill mccreary’s arm and there Kurt mlan touched it and Bill mccre blew the whistle meso for hooking at 5 27 so the Winnipeg power play will get another chance to work against the Canucks 1433 remaining to play second period kcks in front 31 less than a minute after their last power play their last power play looked pretty pretty sad as the Jets couldn’t gain control and never really had a chance on Kirk mlan olison along the side boards to Tamu salani salani shot deflected by Yi Lum this is yanma back to Howley plays it into kachuck kachuck back to [Applause] Howley like to keep the Jets as wide as possible so far they’ve managed to do just that as lum comes up with a loose Puck plays it ah head to B again xov in a pretty good position to shoot but he tried to pass to Salan and Lum read it well and intercepted the pass Housley at the conu blue line for salani salani misfired on the pass Here Comes Pavo B seof on his right and sov

wiip nobody on the right side Robert Dirk gets there for Vancouver Thomas steam trying to poke it three does comes in front with the Jets unable again to do anything with it cff Ronney knocks it in Lyndon goes in deep Shannon has taomi open on the right side but the pass was too far DOI takes Dirk down Shannon does some work against litster and then lster drops DOI lster on top of DOI behind the Canucks goal this is Thomas Steen couldn’t control it courel has it back hands it ahead to clion this the tail end of a long shift for the ronning Lyndon courel line as courel goes down trying to stay on side as Lynden carried the Robert Dirk missed game four hip injury according to the team we thought it might be his ribs it turns out to be his hip doesn’t seem to be causing him any problems tonight King knocks it into the conu Zone chance for Eagles Eagles goes behind and that couldn’t get the pass in front foro fighting on the end boards comes back to Eagles and this is Dixon Ward the conect rookie working down the left side cuts into the middle and bado is tripped up by meso dumped into the jet Zone Dixon Ward having difficulty coming off the ice gets to the bench just barely gets to the bench as he came across one on four got his head down and just got cream Sergio meso dumps it in right side Ned trying to get to it meso gets his own dump in Adams with a swe shot turned aside by Essen Adams fighting for it finally is meso comes up with IT Crowd calling for a penalty against the Jets mccre having nothing to do with it dump down the ice and this is icing against the Winnipeg Jets as we get some action at the Canucks bench difficulty getting to his skates to get off the ice as John pointed out after he watched the puck he was nailed by Chris King Tam salani has really been a nonf factor here tonight he’s played the one good game where he had the three goals but you look at the other Young Guns as they’re poster called we’ve seen the poster a couple times davidov not even dressed tonight jnov no points salani with the three goals in the one game and Keith kachu you look at the players with stand the cup rings and not a whole lot of them from the Winnipeg Jets Mike Lawler and not many people passing through Edmonton other than Jeff courel and an Anatoli seov ran Walter naturally the longtime Montreal Canadian as we look at John Paddock he was close with Philadelphia when he played there in 1980 played for Pat Quinn man that he’s coaching against in this series this is pav B big shot and it’s high that’s off the crossbar from pav B that had Bob essence of beaten and for a little guy it’s hard to read his shot now once pav B get set up for this shot and just let it rip off the crossbar up and over the glass they certainly appreciate the effort of Pabo bur although they do have the fan meter going here at the Pacific Coliseum to get the fans involved Bill Howley behind the Jets goal Jets trailing by two 3-1 925 to play in the second period Adams for Craven Craven dumps it in goes on the skate of kachuck PB is there pavb passes back in the middle pass intercepted this is kachak kachuk is brought down by Yuki lum the Chuck looking towards Bill mccre looking for a penalty this is pavur back to Adams Adams quick shot wide and it winds up on the mesh behind Bob essenza 9 minutes to play second period Jets down by two call it a route in Calgary now the great one has scored he tried to feed Tony Granado but the puck goes in off Kevin doll’s head not the way grety usually scores but he has his first of the series and it’s 73 Kings at the Saddle Dome Scott I think the way grety has been scoring or lack of it he’ll take him any way he can get them this might be a little payback time for that 94 game where the Calgary Flames beat up on the Kings the last time they played in Calgary up Numan fires it into the [Applause] corner seov shoots it down the ice Lawler gives [Applause] Chase baller to Thomas steam Steam that’s Sant I in the middle Shannon pass it poked Away by Robert Dirk shanon plays it into the corner McCurry has his arm up and we’re going to get a penalty and it’s looks like Doug litster going off for tripping on Thomas Steen in front of the net and again good pressure by the Winnipeg Jets good for checking now here’s lster on Steen look at the hook underneath Ste late down he goes and ler gets a penalty [Music] 119 Ty doy mixing it up with Gary vul and that’s what the fans were hollering about you see doy with a quick right no retaliation for vul away from the play and Bill mccre didn’t see it and then Doug litster takes the penalty and that’s three in a row now against the Vancouver Canucks and the Jets power play has not been very good here in the second period certainly the last time out the man Advantage the Jets power play did not look very potent jof kachuk and TAMU salatti the forwards for the Jets Howley and Fredick olison the pointman 821 to play second period kucks three Jets one it like a goal here it Howley one time sces and I think it’s kek who KS this one down who cares how it looked last time it worked pretty well that time they set up Phil Howley for the shot and Keith kachuck standing in front and again Gerald dick with kachuck Kei face off one by xam off goes back and look at Howley get in position for the shot here’s a pass across good shot by Housley and there’s dick and kachuck right in front of Kirk mlan there’s dick tries to get kachu out of the way but it hits kak’s arm and goes down under Kirk mlan so the Winnipeg Jets power play Cashes in early and the Jets are now down by one they have given Howley credit for the goal salani and jamn drawing the assist the goal coming at 1146 Lawler passing behind his own neck ronne on the side board has it for the con Miss times the shot this is borata working down the right side against Dave babage babage taking gors into the boards Gerald did it off the glass behind the net two jets are there pass in front Howley pinching in Howley gets the shot away mlan directs it to the side boards ronning and courel two on two Howley and bouting back courel with a nice move against Howley picks the

right side corner racing after gets it the running and essenza comes up with the save for the win it B jets r Cliff Ronnie and we’ve got King and courel down by the conu PCH King and Cel exchanging words but nothing comes of it big save by Bob es makes the save Keith kachu they haven’t given him the goal yet and Alexis xov gets his second assist of the night and his second point of the series here’s the shot now look at in front does it hit kachu and go down it hit something in front kachu and Dick both standing there good screen I think you’re right John it was continuing to rise and then all of a sudden it started to drop so it had to hit something in front either dick or kachu but the official scoring play is Howley assist to salami and jam the Jets will take it and now Trail by 1 32 651 to play second per Dixon Ward back on the ice for the kcks meso balls in the corner Mike Lawler behind his own goal being watched by Peter Ned along the boards to Darren shaton has taomi in the

Esa was able to fall down and cover up for the winter back g a good Rush by B Craven as he cut in threw the puck out to Greg Adams and brury coming late almost got to the rebound but Bob Essen was a little quicker with the left hand now look at Craven go wide on olison and Adams uses his size to get in behind but look at Essa get that hand down just before pavl buy got there Murray’s dad Ron played in the Western League for the Calgary stamp peders I’m sure you’re old enough to remember that Steve before my my time long before my time he was called Ron crafty PR good forward Adams working against Bon this is beray passing to Craven back to Lum Lum to a wide open Adams and Adams unable to control the pass o over stick Beret working out from the corner buray passing in front Yury Lum was

in by dick dick with a shot and essenza had to be sharp to turn that [Applause] aside V with a good move back hands it into the Zone otter working against kenth Chris King just fires it into the stam look at babage who has probably been the best defenseman in the series so far he so strong Mike Eagles tried to hit him now watch Mike Eagles coming hit babage and look who gets the worst of that one Mike Eagles gives away about 20 pounds but still Dave babit showing his strength and Scott will be talking to Dave babit and we’ll have some updates on the out oftwn games at least with a big win and the Kings well on the way to their win I wonder if Scott will ask him about his golf courses in Winnipeg one of them’s open the other one will be open in August has a couple one out by the airport flew over it the other day steeve at Center passes to Shannon Shannon gets the shot away wide but not by much courel ahead to litster litster shoots it in chance for Lyon shot save essenza a huge save by Bob essenza of Trevor Lyon who is all alone in front and that’s two now you remember the one on ronning his team battling back to get close and now they’ve given up some great scoring chances

period kcks three Jets two Tam salani behind his own goal picking up steam at the blue line now at the conu Blue Line tied up there neatly by yeri Lum chance for the Jets in front and M playay is forced to clear salani was parked on the doorstep and pav B did a good job defensively coming back to up Salan everybody talks about breay in the offensive zone there good defensive play on Salan 152 to play in the period Adams shoots it in essenza forced to make the save Numa clears it down the ice as meren goes back to touch it and the Winnipeg Jets will be called for icing with 137 to play in the now here’s the Trevor lynon chance now look at the Jets defense where are they there’s Phil Howley where’s Sergey bout Lyndon is all alone and a big save by Bob ens the face off in the jet Zone to the right of Bob essenza 137 to play second period [Applause] this is porat plays it ahead to Chris King on the left side he dumps it into the right side of the conu Zone Adams ahead to B who couldn’t control it Lawler long lead pass picked off by buray tried to get it to Craven gets it to Adams and it’s blown down on the offs side at the Jets Blue Line a good call by Ray gelo as Murray Craven lifted his foot as Adams brought that HCK in offside and Greg Adams you can still tell his timing is off great chance earlier in the period jurk Lum set him up and he just missed the pass and you see his points in this series and had he been in mid-season for him those goals would have at least doubled by now and probably tripled with the chances he’s had face off just outside the jet Zone Marie Craven working against Mike Eagles gravan Adams and buray the forwards for Vancouver babage and Gerald dick working the Blue Line bavage shoots it in Lawler back for wiip and behind the play Murray Craven was upended by Teo Newman and this was a late call by Bill mccre and it’s an interference call on Newman and Murray Craven did good job on his for checking to create the chance now watch here’s newmanan right there with the hook on Craven and down goes took a long time to get the arm up on that one num for interfer at 54 and that penalty coming with 106 remaining in the second period Canucks will have the man Advantage for the tail end of the second and the start of the third not a Scot Oak at least the flurry has one for the flames in Calgary four minutes to go in the third period flurry stops the shot turns and scores on Rob stobber at 74 Kings now flurry’s fourth of the playoffs here in Vancouver it’s 32 Canucks over the Jets with 48 seconds remaining to play in the second period Craven brings it in for Vancouver to buray KS have the man Advantage for the next minute 34 buray back to bavage to buray buray to bavage off the boards babage able to keep it in can KNX keep the pressure on buray to Craven behind the Jets goal plays it to Adams Adams back to the point to bage First Time by buray partially blocked in front dying seconds of the second period buray gets the shot away into the stands and the Canucks will head to the dressing room with a one-goal lead on the Winnipeg Jets Bob as with a couple of big saves after his team battled back on the power play and that’s the only time that the Canucks have been in trouble as when they’ve been short-handed both jet goals have come on the power play and now Vancouver has one for 54 seconds to start the third period coming up in our second period in Theiss Mission here at the Pacific Coliseum Scott Oak will be joined by the veteran defenseman of the Vancouver conects Dave babich and will update other Playoff action and so the score at the end of the second period is the Vancouver KS 3 the Jets two the for the Winnipeg Jets Bay chasing after the puck Falon there for the Jets buray digging for it Trevor Lyon gets it back to babage tries to keep it in Adam shot save asza another big save by Bob ases on the Rolling Puck Greg Adams lets his shot go asena makes the [Music] save now watch this a giveaway

Time by buray the side of the net back to [Applause] babage babage one time and blocked in front by the Jets bavage to bur bavage shot from Willow and Isela just got a piece of it teams at even strength now the power play is over for the KX and the Jets have killed it off you can hear Kirk mlan banging you stick on the ice and his teammates didn’t respond at all but the Jets couldn’t hit Teo Newman and out of the Penalty Box howy behind his own net tried to find Shannon with a pass up on the left side mlan sweeps his aside to Dana meren who does that well dump in on the left side this is Tim hter taken in the boards by Sergey bout huter looking for somebody to pass it to being worked over by Bouton Bouton loses his helmet Gary V joins The Fray B leaves it for Hunter and then anat seov gets into the a plays it for V but it’s broken up by Thomas Ste Tam salani who has yet to have a shot on goal in this game Shannon behind the kuu net still has it leaves it for Teo Numan pass to the side of the net Shannon is there tries the wrapper on and the Canucks are able to clear it down the ice again good pressure by the Jets and the main reason because Phil howley’s in deep standing in front out Manning the Canucks In Their Own Zone and where it counts the most the Canucks have the lead on the score scoreboard 32 the count 1743 remaining to play third period Ronnie behind his own net as lynon on his right and he dumps it into the right side clear off the boards and then knocked into the stands a souvenir for a lucky fan here at the Pacific cisum and again Trevor Lyon on his first shift of the third period trying to set the tempo for for the Vancouver Canucks he did it in the first period he came out hitting very physical presence he did it in game one he set the tone early and he’s probably been the best forward in the series I would say Trevor Lyndon we look at the goal production for Lyndon he’s got six points on the series and he has been a physical presence same total as Phil Howley oley’s points all assist ton Numa behind the net flips it out to the neutral zone Murray Craven knocks it back in Lawler behind his own goal waiting for somebody to make a move to tanuma out the boards to doy doy passing to kachak kachak goes around Dirk but goes down in the process Jam knock leaves it for Chuck unable to get the shot away Lawler controlling for the jet

Savers since his team made a close BL tries to clear it along the boards does successfully into the neutral zone Jets come back regroup poison tries the backand picked off seof for Gary F breaks his stick on the shot Dana meren fires it in esenza misplays it Kennedy clearing the Zone meren dumps it back in chance for the Jets this is Eagles shot Sav by the play poret with an excellent opportunity

Canada Trevor Lyon might well be one of those three stars a difficult choice tonight John it is there’s a number of players played very well I thought Murray Cravens had a strong game Dave babich and

there b dumps it in the Jets have really cut down on their giveaways and now it’s Vancouver’s turn here late in the third period good example of that discipline we were talking about from Tim Hunter

the puck and look at it bouncing he’s got it on his sleeve he’s already banged one into his own net tonight the way he’s played he doesn’t want to score another one for Vancouver 205 to play third

the third period in a 3-3 tie and there was no kanak anywhere near Tempo Newman and I don’t know why he didn’t try and carry that out of his own Zone fires it down the ice and now they’ve got a face off deep look at Trevor Lyon use his strength right here cut to the front but he loses control as Sergey boutton got a piece of him good chance for Trevor lynon see the way he used that left skate to dig it in draw himself around as he cut in front you can only do that if you’ve got tremendous strength in your legs M he tried to protect the puck with that leg but Bon just kicked out and got a piece of it big face off coming to the right of Bob essenzo with 30 seconds remaining in the third period in a three all tie knocks have the big line of Adam sof and buray out there Di and babage on the points and the Jets are able to clear did behind his own net this is babage knock down it’s Center Ice buray has it for the kxs 10 seconds remaining to play third period we’re tied at three newmanan just dumps it down the right side and babage is forced to go back for it for the kucks the horn sounds and regulation time is over we are going to overtime for the first time in this Series in 1993 between the kucks and the Jets and you can thank those two men Kirk mlan with the big save on TAMU Salan and Bob essenza with the big saves when the score was 3-2 to keep his team close the tied the game for the Jets scor by Darren Shannon actually we don’t have that yes we do have that goal pardon me I misspoke myself that was Shannon on the ice for overtime but here he was in action in the third period scoring the goal to force extra time at 9:05 fed by Thomas Steen and he beat ktk mlan Shannon second of the game and so overtime is next on the agenda at Pacific Coliseum here is Steven John not difficult to imagine what’s going through his mind right now as the Canucks get set for overtime against the Winnipeg Jets he knows that if his Canucks can beat the Jets tonight they get a a few days off before they start the Smite division final against either the LA Kings or the Calgary Flames or they go back to Winnipeg and game six on Thursday night in the White House the Winnipeg Arena and it was snowing a little bit when we left Winnipeg yesterday Steve and they say the weather is supposed to go up to plus 17 so it should be much nicer should we have to go back to Winnipeg tomorrow it was amazing when we landed Winnipeg the other day for game three nice and warm but by the time game three got underway it was quite chilly and stayed that way overtime is underway here at the Pacific Coliseum for the first time in this series between the Winnipeg Jets and the Canucks and it’s Pavo B who comes ahead pass to Adam shot and save by esta cleared in front and dck

giving chase this is babage shot and a good block there by tyomi sacrificing his body to block the shot ller looking for ke kachuck with the pass K KNX managed to intercept and now ton Numa goes off the Stick of V lines up on the stick of bavage fires it in the neutrals here’s wall at the connect blue line fakes the shot passes in front and mlan gloves it hangs on so the face off will be to the right of Kirk mlan in the con want to know is are you going to be the one to tell Tai DOI that he doesn’t know how to block shots I think he’ll admit to it after that one face off to the right of Kirk mlan we’re in overtime tied at three here at the Pacific Coliseum this is Gary V for the Canucks at Center V takes it in on on the left side Shannon around the boards to olison olison ahead to Thomas Ste Jets unable to control block back hands it in this is tamos salani gets around meren one hands the pass in front passes in front again they score the Jets winning it overtime they stay alive and I don’t know whether they’re going to give this to Darren Shannon for the hattick k threw it out in front and Garren Shannon going to the net and it might be Garren Shannon’s hatrick [Applause] PLL like so many of the goals we’ve seen tonight not a clearcut straight ahead type of goal but one that you might have expected as Randy Carlile suggested it might be what a pretty goal what a pretty move tamos salani on Dana meren right here on Dana and Salan his strength we’ve talked about it before goes once goes twice now look at Darren Shannon going to the net bounces off two or three guys and I think Salan is going to get credit it looks like the Canucks banged it in but it’s Shannon going to the net so the final score here at the Pacific Coliseum in overtime the Jets stay alive with a 43 win over the conuts [Applause] we’re back in his Phil Howley is star number two and teu salani with the overtime winner is the third star the Jets Force at lead
