Quick answer
So much for momentum.
Ruslan Fedotenko lost the puck against the boards in the neutral zone, leading to a give-and-go between Jamie Langenbrunner and Parise. Parise took the corner on Shane O' Brien and beat Holmqvist, who was visibly upset -- a rare show of emotion for the goalie -- after the lamp lit.
The goal came just 1:04 after Lecavalier's tying goal.
Two big giveaways, two big goals for Jersey.

O'brien is a poor man's Paul Ranger. He's got guts but not enough brains and talent to be playing with such guts on an NHL blue line. He may have a future but right now one of our most steady D-men is sitting out needlessly. Let's grow up and play the best players here

Agree with you Tim, afraid he's another player that the Tort's doesn't like.

Shane O'Brien should be sit for Doug Janik. I don't know why they have sit Janik who has played his heart out this season, but they are paying for it now. O'Brien who has not impressed anyone of late should be used sparingly and only for tough guy situations. He actually looked out of shape on the ice last night.
