Boucher Shuts Out Five StraightArchived from 2003-04 season. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
"I did look up at the clock," said Boucher, who has 130 saves since the streak began. "Once I saw it was, I think, four minutes into the third, I knew I could breathe easy as far as the streak is concerned. That is probably the first time I really was counting down. I hate to do that, but I don't know if anyone could ignore it. I'm happy that was over and then we could focus on just winning the game." Brian Boucher was a third-stringer behind Sean Burke and Zac Bierk when the season began. Boucher was even left unprotected in the waiver draft and didn't get a chance until Bierk injured his groin in November. "It's just been unbelievable," Boucher said. "It's just a great ride we're on right now. I still haven't really stopped to think about it too much. I mean, I can't explain what's going on." |
