This is the marquee event of the regular season. So why not discuss it a little more.

Unfortunately I was at work and forgot to set the DVR, but there is this highlight video.

A lot of cool things happened. You've got:

-Brayden Schenn's first career NHL goal (anyone want his Young Guns RC? lol)
-Rupp's Jagr-esque salute after scoring his first goal.
-A big Rangers FA signing (Richards) coming through with a huge goal


and of course, the HUGE moment...

The penalty shot with under 20 seconds left.

A great game and a great event.
