No. 1 Star: Tuukka Rask, Boston Bruins

Rask was rock solid for the Bruins, stopping 53 shots as Boston took a 3-0 series lead over the Pittsburgh Penguins with a 2-1 double overtime victory. He now leads all goaltenders with 11 playoff wins and is second overall in save percentage (.940).

No. 2 Star: Patrice Bergeron, Boston Bruins

Another series, another overtime goal for Bergeron. His redirection of a Brad Marchand pass at 15:19 of the second overtime gave the Bruins their victory and put them on the verge of another trip to the Stanley Cup Final.

Vokoun rebounded from a tough Game 2 to make 38 saves in a losing effort, including 21 in the opening two periods.
