Episode 9: Game 9, October 20

Welcome back to the Temple! Marc-André, at your service.
Tonight — the Minnows. The little fish, second game in two nights, tired legs... or so we thought.
Two minutes in — the puck's in the net! ...No! Waved off! The whistle beat it across by a heartbeat. No goal. Oh — remember that whistle tonight.
And of course — who else? The Minnows' little captain strikes first. One-nothing, visitors. The Temple... does not approve. 1 - 0
But the answer wears the C. The violinist — one-one! That is how a captain answers. And we are just getting started. 1 - 1
Second period — party time! The big winger makes it two-one... then Cornfield — the kid — three-one! The Temple is shaking! ...Right? 1 - 3
Third period. And the little fish... refuse to die. Three-two. Dobes is holding the fort — twenty-six saves tonight — but the tide is coming in. 2 - 3
The enforcer snaps. Roughing — and unsportsmanlike conduct on top. Four minutes in the box. Four. Minutes. Marty is staring a hole through the glass.
And they cash it. Power play — three-three. A two-goal lead, gone — on one man's temper. The Temple cannot believe it. Neither can I. 3 - 3
Overtime. And then — Dobes himself takes the call. Interference. The goalie! Four-on-three... and the little captain ends it. Four-three, Minnows. 4 - 3 OT
The whistle giveth — and Friday, we're in Chicago. Bring a cardiologist.
