Box Scores_ Let's Go to the Tape!

Kotaku reader OTCIXS faced worse than an embarassing loss; as a diehard Penguins fan, he faced losing to Philadelphia – and to a live opponent assuredly ready to talk trash about it. And then a miracle unfolded. We have video! Tied 1-1 in overtime, OTCIXS took one of those ticky-tack penalties that has you believing the gods are against you. Short-handed, his Pens suck it up and bear down to kill the penalty. Philly smells blood in the water and rushes the zone to finish this off. Cycling the puck, the Flyers’ Braydon Coburn winds up for a blue-line slap shot and OTCIXS instinctively sends Pascal Dupuis to dive on the puck. Dupuis goes down in a heap, seemingly hit in the face, as teammate Mark Eaton swoops in.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); Eaton picks up the puck cleanly away from Coburn and his help, swats or kicks it ahead to a now-rushing, uninjured Dupuis, who is beating everyone down the ice. “With my opponent hopelessly trying to hook me and 12 seconds left in overtime,” says OTCIXS, “I deked back to the right and nestled the puck into the net with a backhand shot. “Needless to say, my 360 controller went flying and I started jumping up and down all over my room. I nearly dislocated my shoulder from all the fist pumps.” Here’s your proof! This image was lost some time after publication. Remember, many sports publishers have highlight-saving and uploading features, such as NHL 11. But all you have to do to get yourself featured in Box Scores’ Game of the Week is take a picture of whatever you’ve been playing – crappy cell picture will do – write up a couple sentences about why it was so compelling, and email it to me, owenATkotakuDOTcom, with “Game of the Week” in the subject header.
