Rick DiPietro
One period, one goal against for Rick DiPietro.
The Western Conference scored their only goal in the opening twelve seconds while DiPietro was talking on a live microphone through the first period.
A few very good saves, one great one on Cory Perry.
Former Islander goalie Chris Osgood let in five but also made a few great saves. Eastern Conference while DiPietro was in had a big edge in the play.
Mike Emrick did a great job letting him do play by play in the final seconds.
MVP? Doubtful because he did not have to make a ton of great saves.
Updated:
Eric Staal of Carolina won the MVP, Nabakov of San Jose was outstanding in the second period as was Tomas Vokoun of Florida.
