It featured highly entertaining, hold-your-breath, heart-pounding action that only a quest for Lord Stanley's Cup could generate such muster and determination from both hockey clubs. In the end, it was the Bruins who pulled out a dramatic 2-1 double-overtime victory Saturday night at TD Garden. Nathan Horton notched his first career playoff goal at 9:03 of the second overtime to help Boston gain its first lead of this best-of-seven series, a 3-2 advantage. The Bruins have shown tremendous resiliency after dropping the first two games and they have now won three in a row with the series shifting back to Montreal for Game 6 on Tuesday. "It was an exciting game for both teams, but in the end it felt good to get that," Horton said. "We knew it was going to be a greasy goal [that won it], and it sure was. It was a rebound, but they all count. It was a big goal for us."
