This isn't one specific game, instead it's a streak of Toronto not winning a road playoff game in overtime. The last time it happened was Game 1 against Ottawa in 2001.
Rangers always lose Game 5
Didn't do a fact check to back this up but it really feels like the Hawks lose game 1 of a series more often than not
Since 2010 Hawks are 3-6 in first round playoff game 1's.
So how did they manage to participate in 9 playoffs in 7 years / 8 season?
Rangers are dominant in game 7's. since 2009 they are something like 8-1 or 9-1 with lundqvist having a otherworldy good save %
They beat the caps in game 5 two years ago.
IIRC brad richards famous game tying goal also came against the caps which was also in a game 5. (they ended up winning in OT)
Who did they lose to in 7? It escapes me. Was it the Caps in 08-09?
And yes. The New York Lundqvists are absurd in game 7s.

These are their road playoff loses in overtime since that win against Ottawa.How many have they lost in that span?
Here's another one for the Hawks. Since 2009 they are 16-3 in series clinching games. In other words, when they have three wins in the series.
The only 3 losses were in game 7's when they came back from 3-1 deficits in the series.
