Las Vegas -- With the OT clock ticking down, Rob Pallin weaved through two defenders and unloaded a high-rising 42' shot which went mask-high and into the the net for the game winner on Sunday.
Pallin's dramatic shot and goal with 1:27 left gave the star-studded Bruins a 3-2 win over the unbeaten Nordiques to win the Bad Boyz tournament title before a nice, festive crowd at the Santa Fe Stations Ice Arena.
Earlier, NHL star Jarome Iginla of the Calgary Flames snapped a hard, 15' foot shot top shelf right to give Rob's Bruins a 2-1 lead midway in the third period.
Then, with a minute to play, the Nordiques pulled their goalie and scored with 0:13 to play.
That set the stage for Pallin's sudden-death goal, a center-ice blast from just inside the blue line.
TOURNAMENT NOTEBOOK -- Iginla, a solid 6'1, 220, posed for many photographs and signed autographs afterwards....He reports to the Calgary Flames training camp in Canada on Sept. 10...His 52 goals, 44 assists for 96 points led the NHL last season...
Marty McSorley has been hired by his old linemate, Wayne Gretzky of the NHL L.A. Kings, to be head coach at AHL Springfield this fall...
The Bruins' goalie was a roller star, Joe Kelly of Los Angeles...
Lots of Outlaws skaters in the stands including Eddie Del Grosso, Eddie Samuels, Jeff Hajner, Zach Whisman, Aaron Baca and 'Little Zuck.'....After the game, Hajner spent some time with Iginla at center ice...
From the Blue Line, Lee....
