The Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Rangers have played a thrilling game seven at Madison Square Garden, a back-and-forth affair with each team having and losing the lead so far.
The two teams aren't ready to call it a game after three periods either!
Late in the third period, New York Rangers forward
Mika Zibanejad got the puck in the slot and fired a perfect snapshot over Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender
Tristan Jarry's shoulder.
The goal tied the game 3-3 with just 5:45 remaining in the third period to send game seven to overtime. The Rangers are trying to come all the way back from a 3-1 series deficit to beat the Penguins. Tonight's overtime will be just the 46th time in NHL Playoff history that a game seven will be decided in overtime.
Who's got the series winner?
