BOSTON -- A future Hall of Famer who established his credentials in the open ice, there was Jaromir Jagr along the boards, mucking it up for a loose puck. The 41-year-old former Pittsburgh great outdueled Evgeni Malkin for the puck and pushed it ahead to Brad Marchand, who brought it over the blue line and flipped it to Patrice Bergeron for the winning goal. "Everyone is doing everything in order to get the success and to get the wins, and it doesnt matter what it is and who it is," Bergeron said early Thursday after his goal at 15:19 of the second overtime gave Boston a 2-1 victory over the Penguins and a 3-0 lead in the Eastern Conference finals. "Jags is a perfect example. Hes pretty much a legend; hes a guy thats going to be in the Hall of Fame at some point, and hes doing the little thing right there just to fight for the puck. And you notice that as a teammate, and it goes a long way." After two blowouts in Pittsburgh to start the series, the Bruins returned to Boston to win a tightly contested game, getting a goal on their first shot just 1:42 in and then another on their last more than 93 minutes of playing time later. With a victory in Game 4 at home Friday night, the 2011 Stanley Cup champions would earn a chance to play for a second title in three years. "It was very long, very tiring. But we came out with the win," Marchand said. "Were obviously very happy, but weve still got a lot of work to do. Theyre going to come out harder the next game." Tuukka Rask stopped 53 shots for the Bruins, and David Krejci scored Bostons only goal in regulation. With his assist, Jagr moved past Paul Coffey and into fifth place on the NHLs career list with 197 post-season points. "He seems to be having a lot of fun with our group," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "(Hes) a 41-year-old thats never been known for real physical play, but more for the type of game that those Hall of Famers and superstar players play. And right now hes just doing whatever is asked of him, and thats a credit to Jags." Tomas Vokoun made 38 saves for the Penguins a game after he was yanked from the net after giving up three quick goals in the first period. After Krejci, who leads the playoffs in scoring with nine goals and 12 assists, made it 1-0, Chris Kunitz tied it in the second period. It was 1-1 after two periods, and it stayed that way through two more. But 4:41 before the second overtime would expire, Marchand grabbed the puck along the left-wing boards and centred it, where Bergeron redirected it past Vokoun. That set off a celebration in Boston -- the first for the Bruins at home after they won the first two games of the series in Pittsburgh 3-0 and 6-1. It is the first time all season that Pittsburgh has lost three consecutive games. The good news for the Penguins: The last of three teams to blow a 3-0 lead in an NHL playoff series was Boston, which lost four in a row to Philadelphia in the 2010 Eastern Conference semifinals. "We threw it at them tonight and didnt get the win," Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said. "But its a race to four and they are not there yet." After two Boston blowouts, the Penguins matched the Bruins and even outshot them 39-25 in regulation -- including a third period in which Pittsburgh held a 14-4 advantage despite two Boston power plays. The Bruins didnt muster a shot in the final 7 1/2 minutes of regulation. But they had the better chances in overtime, including Nathan Hortons breakaway that Vokoun turned aside just 2:21 in, and another shot by Horton that went off the right post with 12:25 on the clock. Pittsburgh forced Rask to make a save with 5 minutes left in the first OT, when Craig Adams tried to poke home a rebound. "I think the whole game we felt really comfortable with our play," said Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, who has yet to record a goal or assist in the series. "I think we felt like it was just a matter of time before we were going to get it. Unfortunately, they ... hung around and got one at the end." The Bruins opened the scoring when Krejci circled around the net and took a slap shot that caromed in off Pittsburgh defenceman Matt Niskanen. But the Penguins tied it in the second -- the first time in the series, other than 0-0, that they have been even -- when Kunitz one-timed a pass from defenceman Paul Martin over Rasks right shoulder.

The way Pittsburgh is playing now, with offence up and down a lineup that isnt being dominated by stars Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, the Senators couldnt help but wonder if any team does. James Neal scored a hat trick as the Penguins advanced to the Eastern Conference final for the third time in six seasons by closing out the Senators 6-2 in Game 5 on Friday night. Just as Ottawas franchise icon Daniel Alfredsson foresaw following a 7-3 Penguins rout in Game 4, the Senators werent good enough to rally from a 3-1 deficit for the first time in six attempts in franchise history. After winning Game 3 on home ice with a comeback that started in the final minute of regulation, they were outscored 13-5 in two runaway Penguins victories. "They were better than us in each and every game and I was just trying to put the pressure on them," said Alfredsson, who acknowledged after Pittsburghs 7-3 win in Game 4 it would be extremely difficult for the Senators to rally. "I still believe that we could do it, if we win one game I think that comment helps us, and thats where it came from." The 40-year-old Alfredsson, an Ottawa fixture since 1995, said he will decide at some point in the off-season whether he will return for a 17th NHL season. "Its really tough with four young kids at home," Alfredsson said. "Thats kind of where I struggle personally. Ill talk to (the Senators) and see what they think. I think I still can play, I really enjoyed the playoffs and had a lot of fun with it. Ill take a little bit of time, I dont want to make a quick decision." Coach Paul MacLean said of Alfredsson and defenceman Sergei Gonchar: "My expectations are they will come back until they tell me." After beating Montreal the opening round following an injury-filled season in which they surprisingly made the playoffs, the Senators were good enough to win only once in a series decided by Pittsburghs offensive execution and a scoring depth that ranges far beyond Crosby and Malkin. Brenden Morrow, Kris Letang and Malkin each added singles for the Penguins on Friday, while Neals goals gave him five in the final two games of the series. "We got to our game a lot. The depth we had showed," Crosby said. "Different guys chipping in, the whole way through we didnt have many lulls where we lost momentum at any point." The Penguins were aided by the solid goaltending of Tomas Vokoun, who made 29 saves and doesnt appear willing to give back his job to former Stanley Cup winner Marc-Andre Fleury any time soon. Pittsburgh, which led the conference during the regular season, will play either the Boston Bruins or New York Rangers in the Eastern Conference finals. Boston leads 3-1 in a series that resumes Saturday night. "They have a good team and theyre really pushing for it," Senators defenceman Erik Karlsson said. "Right now, theyre playing the way they want to. The first two games (in Pittsburgh) we werent prepared for what they were bringing, they played really well and we definitely didnt play the way wanted to. ... They came out and started stronger the last game (Game 4) and this game as well." For the Senators, who generated only goals by Milan Michalek and Kyle Turris, it was yet another disappointing conclusion to a season. They have failed to advance past the conferencce semifinals since reaching the Stanley Cup final in 2007, but they advanced one round further than they did a season ago.dddddddddddd "A lot of things have to go right for you to get past each round," goalie Craig Anderson said. "The deeper you go, the harder it gets. The better teams keep advancing and the opponents get tougher and tougher. We have to continue to get better. If youre not growing youre dying, and we need to keep growing." Much like the series, Game 5 didnt take long to decide as the Penguins overwhelmed Anderson with waves of scoring attempts -- even when Crosby, who had just an assist, and Malkin werent on the ice. "We didnt respond to start Game 4 and we didnt respond after losing Game 4," Turris said. Malkin did get Pittsburghs fourth goal, his fourth of the playoffs, on a short breakaway created by the turnover Neal generated at mid-ice in the final minute of a second period in which Pittsburgh scored three times. Neal added his second of the game unassisted at 11:07 of the third, and his sixth of the playoffs and third of the game with 2:39 remaining. "Everything hes done, especially the last couple games, hes created a lot of chances for himself," Crosby said of Neal. "That whole line (Jarome Iginla-Malkin-Neal) has been pretty hard to stop. Theyre not fun to play against." The Penguins are averaging 4.27 goals a game through 11 playoff games, the best such pace of any team since the 1992-93 Penguins averaged 4.17 goals per game. Pittsburgh has also scored at least four goals in nine of 11 playoff games, only once failing to score fewer than three, a 2-1 overtime loss in Game 3 in Ottawa. But they recovered from that lone defeat in the series to easily win the final two games, including the Game 4 rout in which MacLeans post-game news conference lasted only 13 seconds and Alfredsson couldnt generate much optimism for a series comeback in a quiet dressing room. "I think weve been confident the whole series against Ottawa," Letang said. "We knew that playing a north-south (fast-paced) series would get us rewarded." In Game 5, the Penguins never trailed after Morrow, who missed Wednesday with an undisclosed injury, beat Anderson down low off a pass by Mark Eaton 6:25 into the first. The play was started after longtime Senators antagonist Matt Cooke beat Jared Cowen to the puck and threaded a pass to Eaton. The goal was reviewed briefly before it was determined Morrow did not use a distinct kicking motion while directing the puck by Anderson. Neal made it 2-0 on a power play created by Jean-Gabriel Pageaus interference penalty nearly 7 1/2 minutes into the second, and Letang pushed it to 3-0 with a 4-on-4 goal just over five minutes later. Tyler Kennedy skated the puck out of his own zone before sending a pass to the left circle to Letang, who cut into the high slot to beat Anderson with a hard wrist shot. Michalek, reunited on a line with Alfredsson and Jason Spezza, finally got Ottawa on the board late in the second period. But the Senators didnt have nearly enough -- not in this game and not in the series. "They (the Penguins) really showed the step you have to take to continue to play in the Stanley Cup playoffs," MacLean said. "I can tell them its going to be hard, its going to be hard, its going to be harder, but I think we got a solid lesson in terms of what it takes."
