However, it was a save in the first overtime by Islanders netminder Thomas Greiss that would end up being vital in the game.
Greiss was put in a tough situation that not too many goalies see in Stanley Cup Playoff history, and he came up huge. The Islanders goaltender was up against an overtime penalty shot. It was only the third in playoff history. In the 1-on-1 situation it was Greiss who stopped AleksanderBarkov’s bid to end the game.

One in 1996. One in 1998. One tonight.
All missed.
Jagr played in all 3 games.
