Despite winning Game 1, many felt that the Atlanta Thrashers did not put together a complete game. The game had the characteristics of what should have been a blowout. Atlanta was able to force a goalie swap out of Philly in the second period. They were up 4-0 with 2:30 left in the game. But with 47 seconds left, they were only up 4-3. Many felt it was a miracle that they were able to hang on and avoid a complete meltdown. Nevertheless, those final minutes have given Philadelphia more momentum and Atlanta more pressure heading into Game 2. Remember, Ilya Kovalchuk and the Thrashers have never won a playoff series before and have serious expectations to do so this season. In all likelihood, this game will play a pivotal role in determining who will move on to the Semi-Finals. Who will win this one? There's only one way to find out.
