Overtime Hockey Hangover

I'm a little groggy today. I stayed up until 2:28am watching the Stars beat the Sharks in the 4th overtime. I just couldn't turn it off. My wife kept yelling at me to turn it off, but I couldn't. There's nothing like a long, elimination overtime game. There were great saves, great chances and lots of drama in the five hour and 14 minute game, the 8th longest in NHL playoff history.
The game was decided when Brian Campbell was called for tripping in the 4th OT. That lead to Brendan Morrow's deciding goal. It ruined an otherwise brilliant night for the former Sabres defenseman. Campbell played 68 shifts and over 56 minutes of ice time.
The Stars advance to play the Red Wings in the Western Conference Finals. I advance to an early bed time tonight.

Did you stay up until the end of the game? Do you have any good late night, overtime game stories? Let us know. Post your comment.
