Negative. He missed a backhand at the empty net from just inside the blueline, pressured by Ohlund, and then he tripped over his stick that was slashed out of his hands by Morrison, as he was skating backwards.
Brian Burke's quote at the time (can't find it now in a quick search) was that was the greatest game he had ever seen any player play, and that it cost him his job.
