Leading nearly the entire game, the Missouri Comets give up two goals in the final 3 minutes of regulation. Then Baltimore only needed six seconds of overtime to claim the 4-3 victory.
The Comets swept their regular season series against the Baltimore Blast with three clear victories. Heading into Game One of the Eastern Conference Finals, they hoped to continue their strong showing and keep their season rolling.
Baltimore started the game by pressuring the Comets in their defensive end. Anytime a Comets defender got the ball in their defensive third, two Blast players would immediately appear to try and trap them into a mistake.
