LOWELL -- Himanshu Bhatnagar was having a successful life in India. He graduated college, joined a computer-hardware company and had a lot of early accomplishments.
But something was missing.
"I was doing well there, but it wasn't intellectually satisfying. I knew I could do a lot more with my life," Bhatnagar said. "You couldn't start a business over there, so when I came here, I was looking to get ahead in technology knowledge.
And the founder/CEO of HB Software Solutions, a transportation-technology company, has certainly gotten ahead over the last 28 years in America.
Bhatnagar was recently nominated for The Immigrant Learning Center's 2013 Immigrant Entrepreneur Awards in the science and technology category. The 26 nominees who founded businesses in Massachusetts "represent outstanding business leaders from across the commonwealth," and seven of the 26 are from Lowell.
After working at an Indian computer-hardware company, Bhatnagar received a master's degree and a doctorate in computer science from UMass Lowell. He then joined a transportation-research lab in Lowell before becoming Managing Consultant of Gensym Corp., an artificial-intelligence-software company.
But Bhatnagar's dream was to start his own business, finally reaching this summit after he was chief architect of the Panama Canal operating-system project in the late 1990s.
"Every morning I wake up and am excited to come here (to HB Software Solutions), despite the difficulties that might come along," Bhatnagar said. "I get a lot of loyalty from the staff, and they will go out of their way to do things and to take care of customers, so the customers are usually very happy."
HB Software Solutions provides transportation software to more than 750 agencies in America. This software allows transportation agencies to put their routes on the Internet for commuters to check out. Also, Bhatnagar is working on a cellphone-app project that would let commuters know where the bus is and how long it will take to get there.
The company's software is used in 18 states, including Massachusetts with the Lowell and Fitchburg regional transit authorities. Bhatnagar also has plans to expand to India and other countries.
"We've always been on the cutting edge of the technology," he said. "People in the industry look at our solutions and find them useful and cheap. But mostly it's hard work and the people in the company.
"And our vision is very big, so no matter what we do, we're moving in the forward direction," he added.

text: Ever since its foundation in 1787 one of the main goals of the Zürcher Kunstgesellschaft has been to promote local art. The resurgence of intellectual life experienced by the protestant city of Zurich in the 18th century opened up new vistas for the visual arts in the city: Salomon Gessner's Idyllen and Johann Heinrich Fuseli's eccentric classicism both found a resonance throughout Europe. In the mid 19th century it was the turn of international realism to make its mark on Switzerland both in terms of character and quality; the most important representative of this generation, Arnold Böcklin, was also one of the precursors of Symbolism. But it is the turn of the century that sees the highpoint of both Swiss painting and the Kunsthaus collection, represented by figures such as Ferdinand Hodler, Segantini, Vallotton, Amiet, Giovanni and Augusto Giacometti. In addition Zurich Concrete Art, with its strong leaning towards the systematic and abstract, long occupied a dominant position amongst the rich production of the 20th century.

Feeling like your home is out of control? Getting organized is within your reach; you just need a few key tools to help you along. Belwith hooks are fabulous ways to make a huge dent in that seemingly bottomless pit of disarray. Take a look.
Bathroom hooks are essential for order and sanity. Keep towels, pajamas and clothing off the floor with a variety of single and double hooks installed at just the right heights for everyone in your home.

Use single hooks to designate a spot for each family member, and watch how easy it is to keep this area under control.
You can also use decorative hooks to pick up your bedroom. Accessories always need a place of their own, and a few sets of double hooks will make the perfect home for hats, bags, scarves and hooded sweatshirts.

Couple accused of embezzling money from Great Neck Country Club
A couple that worked at Great Neck Country Club in Waterford are accused of embezzling more than $40,000 from the private club.
Tracy Lane-Emmons and Eric Emmons were arrested by Waterford police last month and were each charged with first-degree larceny and conspiracy to commit first-degree larceny.
Lane-Emmons, 34, of New London appeared in New London Superior Court on Tuesday, where she was served with a violation of probation warrant.
According to an arrest warrant prepared by Waterford Detective John A. Davis on Oct. 7, he received a complaint from club owner Ann Mortimer.
Mortimer told police that Lane-Emmons, who at the time of her employment was not married, worked as a part-time bookkeeper at the country club while Emmons worked as a groundskeeper.
Mortimer told police that Great Neck Country Club is comprised of two separate businesses for accounting purposes — the Great Neck Country Club and Langley's Restaurant.
She told police that Lane-Emmons and Emmons were paid every Friday from the Great Neck Country Club payroll and were never on the restaurant's payroll.
Lane-Emmons was hired in May and was in charge of reconciling the two businesses' various bank accounts. She also had access to the computerized checkbooks and paper check stock, but was not authorized to create checks or sign them, the warrant says.
Emmons was hired in June but was fired two months later for attendance issues. His last payroll check was issued on Aug. 16.
Mortimer told police that she had to hire a local accountant because Lane-Emmons failed to complete her office duties. The accountant found numerous discrepancies in the checking accounts. The accountant compared the images of the canceled bank checks to those that appeared within the business' computerized check book register. The actual canceled bank checks were made payable to either Lane-Emmons or Emmons, but appeared in the computer system to have been made out to various vendors, the warrant states.
During the course of the investigation, it was discovered that 101 business checks were fraudulently created and were either cashed at Liberty Bank or Charter Oak Federal Credit Union branches. The checks totaled $43,049.99.
The warrant says that a total of 56 forged checks were made to Lane-Emmons. Forty-eight were from the Country Club account and eight from Langley's account. The warrant states that 54 of those checks were endorsed by Lane-Emmons, which she had no authority to do. Her driver's license was taken as identification for 47 of the 56 checks.
A total of 45 checks were made to Emmons — 44 from the country club account and one from the restaurant. Police said 39 checks were written to him after he received his last official payroll check.
The warrant says that Mortimer was contacted by Lane-Emmons' probation officer, who said that Lane-Emmons admitted to the larceny.
Probation Officer John Watts was interviewed by police on Oct. 29. Watts said that on Oct. 15, Lane-Emmons freely admitted to stealing about $60,000. Watts told police, "The offender blamed the business for leaving blank business checks inside an unlocked safe."
Lane-Emmons was also charged with violation of probation. On May 17, she was sentenced to a suspended three-month sentence and one year probation for sixth-degree larceny.
While on probation, Lane-Emmons violated the terms of her release by using alcohol and drugs and by missing appointments at her mandated drug treatment program, the warrant says. She also tested positive for heroin, cocaine and morphine.
She also missed required visits with her probation officer and was arrested while on probation.
Lane-Emmons' next court date is schedule for Jan. 9, while her husband was scheduled to appear Wednesday in New London Superior Court.

Looks like Nokia was sitting on the release of Camera Extras & Play Now for its Lumia phones as you can now go ahead and download both apps from the Nokia Collection.
Camera Extras is what it sounds like, yet another camera app from the Finnish company that adds a lot of unique features to hopefully improve some of those pics. Features include:
- Smart Group Shot - automatically selects faces, lets you create the perfect picture
- Panorama - takes numerous photos and stitches them together
- Action Shot - rapidly takes photos
- Self timer - 10 second countdown
The app downloads as a separate program but it does integrate into the camera module meaning you can just quickly load the whole thing by hitting your dedicated camera button. Overall, the features are pretty good and we think many of you will enjoy the new additions. Nokia may be late to the game but they often get it right in the end.
Next up is Play To, Nokia's DLNA app which has finally made it to their Collection. Allowing you to "stream" your Music, Photos and Videos to any DLNA capable device e.g. your TV, the app is a great way to show off your photos to friends and family.
The system auto searches for any DLNA devices over WiFi such as BluRay Players, PCs and more. We don't have one in house so can't test it, we'll leave that to you for now.
Note: For both apps it says you may need the latest update for your phone in order to work--that would be Windows Phone "Tango" (8773) for some of you or Nokia's latest firmware for others. Things like DLNA require some "ground work" done by Nokia in their firmware to be installed so if you can't install these apps or you don't get all of their features, you may have to wait till you get a phone update first.
If not available in your Market (It appears to be US, China and Inida right now) stay tuned as Nokia is rolling these throughout July.
Pick up Camera Extras here and Play To here in the Nokia Collection. Thanks, CaliforniaDrew, for the heads up

Pearl shells, known as riji or jakuli in the Bardi language, are associated with water, spiritual powers and healing due to the luminous shimmering quality of their surfaces. Bardi equate the light reflecting off the shells to lightning flashes, which are prominent during the monsoon, and to lights flashing off the cheeks of the Rainbow Serpent, who is closely linked to water and rain.
The tradition of interlocking designs etched into the surfaces of pearl shells is distinctive in Aboriginal art. The incised designs are highlighted with a mixture of ochre and resin, which is rubbed into the grooves. Decorated and plain pearl shells are used for rain-making and magical purposes, for trade, in ceremonies and as personal adornments such as necklaces or pubic covers when they are worn attached by belts or necklaces of hairstring.
Riji originate around Broome, in the west Kimberley region. They are objects of great value and have been exchanged along ancient trade routes over vast areas of the continent. They appear as far afield as Yuendumu in the desert, south-eastern Arnhem Land, Queensland and South Australia. Often plain pearl shells are decorated further along trade routes, far from their place of origin.

- Vacuums have varying degrees of power. Commercial vacuums are often purchased by cleaning services in order to address larger areas or for multiple jobs. In addition, commercial vacuums are also coveted by those who desire an "above-and-beyond" clean from their vacuum cleaner.
- Vacuum cleaners are not only used inside of a home; they can also be used in garages or to clean the inside of your car. As mentioned, the associated accessories can help you get into just about any spot imaginable. A vacuum's hoses can help you get into backseats, garage corners, trunks, boats, or other desired areas. Furthermore, this can save you money on going to the car wash.
- Bagless Vacuums: Many people enjoy using bagless vacuums because disposal of the dirt and debris is easy. In addition, this eliminates the need to purchase additional vacuum bags. Some people enjoy bagless vacuums because there is not dust or smell coming from the vacuum itself during cleaning. Bagless vacuums also come in the handheld variety.
- Shop Vacuums: Sometimes you may have waste to clean that is not solid but liquid. It is no problem to get rid of with a shop vacuum cleaner. Shop vacuums are great for garages, basements, and kitchens.

It is an odd, and we'd say regrettable, pattern of this White House that it lets itself get dragged down into fights with specific media outlets.
George W. Bush experienced acrimony with the New York Times, but for the most part, other than general frustrations of a conservative administration, complaining about a liberal media, it was no big deal.
But in addition to Fox News, now The White House is going after highly-respected and influential car site Edmunds.com.
They're actually using The White House blog to dispute the site's analysis of Cash-For-Clunkers (via Detroit News).
The post is snarkily titled: "Busy Covering Car Sales on Mars, Edmunds.com Gets It Wrong (Again) on Cash for Clunkers"
Here's the full post:
On the same day that we found out that motor vehicle output added 1.7% to economic growth in the third quarter - the largest contribution to quarterly growth in over a decade - Edmunds.com has released a faulty analysis suggesting that the Cash for Clunkers program had no meaningful impact on our economy or on overall auto sales. This is the latest of several critical "analyses" of the Cash for Clunkers program from Edmunds.com, which appear designed to grab headlines and get coverage on cable TV. Like many of their previous attempts, this latest claim doesn't withstand even basic scrutiny.
The Edmunds analysis is based on two implausible assumptions:
1. The Edmunds' analysis rests on the assumption that the market for cars that didn't qualify for Cash for Clunkers was completely unaffected by this program.
In other words, all the other cars were being sold on Mars, while the rest of the country was caught up in the excitement of the Cash for Clunkers program. This analysis ignores not only the price impacts that a program like Cash for Clunkers has on the rest of the vehicle market, but the reports from across the country that people were drawn into dealerships by the Cash for Clunkers program and ended up buying cars even though their old car was not eligible for the program.
This faulty assumption leads Edmunds to a conclusion that is at odds with many independent analyses: Edmunds assumption that more than 80% of the payback from Cash for Clunkers would occur in 2009 isn't how many mainstream analyses, including Moody's and IHS Global Insight approach the problem (see pages 5 and 15 of this CEA report [PDF]). In fact, Deutsche Bank recently concluded that "The important takeaway from recent sales trends is that it suggests that there has been minimal 'payback' for the U.S. government's 'cash for clunkers' program."
2. Edmunds also ignores the beneficial impact that the program will have on 4th Quarter GDP because automakers have ramped up their production to rebuild their depleted inventories.
Major automakers including GM, Ford, Honda and Chrysler all increased their production through the end of the year as a result of this program, which will help boost growth beyond the third quarter. The actions of private market participants, who would not increase production if they didn't think demand for their product would be there through the end of the year, is a far better indicator of market dynamics - and one that Edmunds.com conveniently ignores.
Most importantly, this program is helping boost our economy and create jobs now when we need it most. In a comprehensive report, the Council of Economic Advisers estimated that the Cash for Clunkers will create 70,000 jobs in the second half of 2009. The strength of recent auto sales data suggest that, if anything, this projection underestimates the actual impact of the program. CEA's analysis is transparent and comprehensive, laying out all of its assumptions for the public to understand. Edmunds.com, on the other hand, is promoting a bombastic press release without any public access to their underlying analysis.
So put on your space suit and compare the two approaches yourself:
Seriously, what's the point of this? Clunkers is over. It just makes The White House look thin-skinned, though it's great publicity for Edmunds. And yes, Clunkers massively distorted this morning's GDP number, as we demonstrated here, but we're with Edmunds that it was a giant waste with little long-term benefit.

Facebook held a new product event today and the possibility of an official Instagram app for Windows Phone was briefly mentioned.
In a nutshell contrary to the rumors there isn't a Windows Phone Instagram app going to be released next week. But the door wasn't slammed shut and double bolted on the idea of a Windows Phone Instagram app either.
The question was simple as was the answer.
"Q: When will we see Instagram with video on Windows Phone? A: Nothing to announce now, but we've been talking with them and we're learning."
So while Instagram continues to be on the fence with the Windows Phone platform, we can still enjoy the Instagram network with the unofficial Windows Phone apps such as Instance, Instagraph, and #2InstaWithMassiveLove.

The Beautiful Patterns of Cut & Loop Carpet
As the name suggests, cut & loop carpet has a combination of high cut tufts and lower loops in a variety of sculptured patterns. Tough and durable, cut & loop carpets can be used in any place that gets a lot of activity. But, probably the most attractive feature of these carpets is the beautiful, yet subtle patters that they can create. Unlike patters created by using different color fibers, cut & loop patterns usually use all the same color fibers. The pattern is created by the difference in texture between the cut ends of the fibers and the looped pieces. These carpets are great at adding a dimension of texture that creates an enhanced plush profile and camouflages traffic patterning. Here are some of our favorite cut and loop styles.
Striations & Waves
Catch a wave with these free-flowing patterns. They'll help hide traffic marks and small stains and they add just the right amount of interest to your floors.
Clockwise from top left: Ryan's Creek by Resista Soft Style, Rosbury by Bigelow, Exceptional by Resista Soft Style, Azzaro by Bigelow (All available at Carpet One Floor & Home)
Swirls & Vines
Take more organic approach and opt for vine-like patterns on your floor. These patterns have a more traditional elegance.

[ALT: At least, with p<0.05 confidence.]
Here we have Randy attempting to write a comic from the annals of his own life. Like all great writers, he is able to take the trials and tribulations [EDIT: I mean slings and arrows LOLOLOL] of day-to-day living and make them into something transcendent--a brilliant piece of art, a statement of philosophy, a nearly word-for-word rehash of an old punchline. These are the things that make Randy so great and that relegate us to writing the posts and comments of a hate blog.
You see, Randall has recently had a brush with illness, and he no doubt heard someone ask a very similar question--not of him, of course, because he wasn't actually sick LOL!!!!--and found it offensive. Why should he look for answers beyond science when science has done vaguely helpful things for medicine? Of course, at the time all he could think of was "shut up your god is stupid only Megan is worthy of my worship" but as time wore and as he ran out of other ideas for a comic, Randy knew that the game was on. It was time to prove to the world, as he does thrice weekly, that he was a brilliant writer, worthy to sit with greats such as R.L. Stine, Gertrude Warner, and Ann M. Martin.
"What do brilliant writers do?" he asked himself, as he seated himself at his shrine of empty soda cans and Cheetos wrappers. And he knew he had the answer: they find a way to awkwardly force an incredibly well-known Shakespeare quotation into their hamfisted monologues. Hamlet's famous "to be or not to be" speech would work sufficiently well. But it can't be taken directly. First, he needs to make it a mixed metaphor--"groping for comfort before the slings and arrows of fortune" sounds much worse than seeking protection from them, or some verb that actually has something to do with slings and arrows! Definitely when you're being shot at you "grope for comfort." He also had to get rid of the word "outrageous," but that's probably because he doesn't actually know that it's there.
And then, just when you thought his Shakespeare reference was forgotten, he brings it back with what must be the most brilliant inversion since that one time I said to someone "you're really dumb" and he replied "no, you." Science, you see, has given us slings and arrows of our own! Damn powerful ones!
DO YOU SEE WHAT HE JUST DID THERE? IS YOUR MIND TOTALLY FUCKING BLOWN? (what he did there is use the phrase "slings and arrows" again, but instead of them being weapons used by
But he's not done! He saves the very best for last. He concludes his "science rocks and people who do anything besides science are actively trying to kill me" monologue--truly the greatest monologue since that scene at the start of Romeo and Juliet where Gregory and Sampson are talking about cutting off the heads of the maids, or their maidenheads, take it in what sense thou wilt--by drawing a parallel to one of the oldest and most well-known of XKCDs, called simply Science. The only text of that one, apart from the graph from the COBE mission, is "Science. It works, bitches." It was made into a t-shirt! You may have seen some nerds wearing it around.
Except now instead of "science" working, bitches, it is the weapons he takes from science that work, bitches. I'm sure there is some deep parallel here, but my mind is too feeble in comparison to the greatness that is Randy to grasp them all. I can do naught but grok in wonder.

Forum seeks glimpse of New London's future
New London - A reuse assessment of three downtown buildings recommends ways that residential units could be added to the upper floors and retail space could be expanded on the ground level.
But accomplishing that would take money - most likely millions - and cooperation from the owners of neighboring buildings.
A summary of the "Model Adaptive Reuse Assessment," which was funded with a state grant, will be presented Wednesday at a forum aimed at bringing together the various groups that are working on improving the city.
"We have a million dollars worth of recommendations for New London and people think there's nothing going on,'' New London Landmarks executive director Sandra Chalk said. "The planning process is hugely important."
Ideas that will be discussed Wednesday include a makeover for the municipal parking along Eugene O'Neill Drive; an update on the housing project in Fort Trumbull; a proposal for an art project by the Hygienic Art; and the downtown buildings study.
The report looked at 34-46 State St., where East Bank Gift Shop is located; 11 Bank St., which is Klingerman Travel; and 15-23 Bank, the former Marcus clothing store. Ideas include the creation of a public atrium or arcade between the three downtown buildings, an idea Chalk called "revolutionary.''
For Sam Rubenstein, who owns the Lawrence Hall Building at 15-23 Bank St., home to Marcus for more than 90 years until it closed last May, anything is possible if you have the money.
Rubenstein likes the idea of residential housing on the upper two floors and retail on the first floor, as suggested by the study. But, he added, all the plans for his three-story building need a large financial investment to make them work.
"It can be whatever money wants it to be,'' Rubenstein said as he led a tour through the vacant building, where the now empty shelves and clothing racks were filled with jeans, sweatshirts, work boots and sneakers during his store's heyday. "With the right amount of money, you can accomplish anything.''
The remnants of a duck pin bowling alley remain on the third floor. The upper floors, which were used for storage after Simpson Bowling Alley closed in the 1970s, have expansive views of the Thames River. Rubenstein said they would make grand living spaces.
"Hopefully, whatever the plans are, they will bear fruit,'' he said. "But I've been here long enough to know, when I see construction crews, then I know something is happening."
Katie Scanlon, a designer with Barun Basu Associates, which worked on the reuse assessment that included structural and marketing analyses of the three buildings, will present the firm's preliminary findings at Wednesday's forum.
One of the biggest problems with buildings in an urban area is the lack of a second egress on the upper floors, she said. Also, the long narrow buildings with frontage on Bank Street offer too much space for a single business.
"The buildings are landlocked with each other. In order to make the downtown alive again and to be able to have places for people to live, we need to provide more access and light,'' Scanlon said.
The architects came up with the idea of creating public access ways between the buildings. They could be open air or covered, and would open up the backs of the buildings for more retail and provide a second access for the upper floors.
Under current codes, residences on the upper floors would need two egresses. Most only have one. One upper floor apartment has a second access that leads to a closed alley. A pathway to a parking lot off Golden Street passes beneath the stage of the former Capital Theater, at 35 Bank St., Scanlon said.
"The message here is, it's a big project, but if building owners worked together, there are solutions,'' she said. "There are options. ... There are many agreements that can be set up legally to make it worth the investment for the building owners."
The reuse study was funded with a $50,000 grant the city obtained from the Connecticut Trust for Historic Preservation.
City Planner Harry Smith said part of the study was meant to identify the costs associated with developing the buildings and to see whether there are funding sources to offset those costs.
The final report is expected to be presented to the City Council in the next few months, he said.
"The whole city leadership in general will decide how to move forward,'' he said. "We're already looking forward to identifying how to fund the gaps."

Back from the brink: Bruins finish off furious Game 7 rally with OT win, crushing Leafs' playoff hopes
BOSTON — It was over. Not just the game or the series, but maybe the run of these Boston Bruins. They had blown a 3-1 series lead and now faced a 4-1 deficit almost halfway through the third period Monday night, and they were going to lose a Game 7 in the first round for the second straight year after winning the Stanley Cup. People were starting to wonder whether coach Claude Julien would be fired and what other changes would be made, from cyberspace to the Bruins' bench.
"You start thinking to yourself, 'Is this the end of this group here?' " said winger Milan Lucic. "Because it probably would have been if we didn't win this game."
But the Bruins did win this game. Somehow they came back and tied the Toronto Maple Leafs, scoring twice with their goalie pulled in the final minute-and-a-half of regulation. Somehow they eked out a 5-4 victory when Patrice Bergeron scored on a rebound 6:05 into overtime, converting boos into cheers at TD Garden, cruelly dashing the raised hopes of Leafs Nation.
And now you wonder if it's just getting started – or if it's just delaying the inevitable.
Three years ago, the Bruins blew a 3-0 series lead – and a 3-0 lead in Game 7 – and lost in the second round to the Philadelphia Flyers. Two years ago, the Bruins rallied from a 2-0 series deficit in the first round against the Montreal Canadiens, took a 3-2 series lead, failed to win Game 6 and won Game 7 in OT. They saved Julien's job then, too, and won two more Game 7s on their way to the Cup. Last year, they lost Game 7 in the first round to the Washington Capitals.
Julien keeps calling them "Jekyll and Hyde," because they play like champs when they're desperate and look average and vulnerable when they aren't. They are still searching for consistency entering the second round against the New York Rangers.
[Watch: Bergeron scores in overtime to complete Bruins' Game 7 comeback]
"I'm a tired coach, I can tell you that much," Julien said. "We've always had trouble with the killer instinct. That's maybe a fault of ours, but a strength of ours is the character you saw tonight. There's that fault, and then there's that character. Somewhere along the way, you try to fix the faults and hopefully keep that character going. That's the biggest challenge for me right now."
The Bruins faced plenty of challenges, some self-created, some not. After taking that 3-1 series lead over the Leafs, a team they had dominated in recent history, a team that hadn't made the playoffs in nine years, Lucic said they "did underestimate them a bit." They failed to close out the Leafs in Game 5 and then again in Game 6, losing back-to-back 2-1 games.
Then their plane was grounded due to mechanical problems Sunday night, forcing them to spend the night in Toronto and fly to Boston on Monday morning. Then they had to play Game 7 without defensemen Andrew Ference and Wade Redden. Then defenseman Dennis Seidenberg suffered an injury and played only 37 seconds, thinning their blue line further.
All that set up a game Bergeron called "one of the craziest ones I've been a part of." The Bruins took a quick 1-0 lead by cashing in on a brutal Toronto turnover, then allowed four straight goals. Their fans booed them when they struggled on the power play or were just plain sloppy. There were being outskated, again. They were being outplayed, again. They didn't look experienced. They looked slow. Summer was coming.
"It looked pretty bad there for a while," said winger Brad Marchand. "It was tough being on the bench, getting booed, looking up at the time clock, watching those seconds count down."
Nathan Horton, who scored two Game 7 winners two years ago, scored 9:18 into the third period. From afar, it seemed too little, too late. But on the Bruins' bench, it seemed like a spark, and on the Leafs' side, time seemed to slow. General manager Dave Nonis headed for the elevator, and it would not come. He waited. He waited. He paced. He paced.
"Brutal," he said.
Brutal was right. Tuukka Rask stopped Matt Frattin on a breakaway, keeping it a two-goal game, then went to the bench for an extra attacker. Assistant coach Geoff Ward had designed plays for this situation. Lucic had scored 6-on-5 with 25.5 seconds left Sunday night, but the Bruins had been unable to get another goal to tie it. This time, he chipped in a rebound 6-on-5 with 1:22 to go.
"I remember saying to the guys in the huddle after that, 'One more. We just need one more. You never know. You never know. Just keep pushing,' " Lucic said.
Bergeron scored his first goal of the series with 50.2 seconds left, blasting a shot from the blue line through a screen set by hulking defenseman Zdeno Chara. Tie game. TD Garden literally shook. You could feel the tremor underneath the stands, and you could hear the fans singing along to the songs on the loudspeakers before OT. "Don't Stop Believin'." "Livin' on a Prayer." "Shippin' up to Boston."
"Yeah," said Leafs goaltender James Reimer, "there's a little bit of a shock maybe."
The Bruins had the momentum, and they had to take advantage of it with their defense held together with hockey tape and hope. Rask made a huge save on Joffrey Lupul, whipping out his right pad to stop a shot from the slot.
And then came Bergeron again.
"If you keep working at it, the bounces are going to go your way at some point," Bergeron said. "It did when it mattered, I guess."
The Leafs are now stuck searching for answers. What could have been an inspiring story ended in disaster. They proved people wrong and stood up to the big, bad Bruins, but they blew it. They turned Maple Leaf Square into a raging party, but they skunked the beer. It's of little consolation that they put themselves in position to blow it or that this experience should help them grow. Lucic said they reminded him of the 2008 Bruins, an eighth seed who pushed top-seeded Montreal to seven games.
[Also: Rangers embarrass Capitals in Game 7 blowout]
"It's definitely in the top five lows of your life," Reimer said. "It's not like we were getting away from our game when it was 4-1, I don't think. It's just, they came with some pressure and some desperation, and they were able to sneak a few bounces in."
"There's nothing you can say to explain how and why it happened," said Leafs coach Randy Carlyle. "It happened."
"I don't know what happened to us," said Leafs winger Phil Kessel, who finished with four goals and six points against his former team. "You can't lose that game."
The Bruins are still searching for answers, too. Bergeron broke through with the two biggest goals of the series, but his line needs to generate more. Marchand had no goals and three points in the series. Tyler Seguin had no goals and one point in the series, and he was demoted to the third line Monday night in favor of 41-year-old superstar Jaromir Jagr, who finished the series with no goals and four points himself. The Horton-David Krejci-Lucic line cannot do it all offensively. And oh, by the way, just how badly damaged is the defense?
But at least the Bruins are still alive. At least they're still together. For now.
"I think it's a special group, and we don't want it to change," Lucic said. "Everyone has a lot of fun coming to the rink here and being around each other and playing for each other. I think we need to keep stepping it up and hopefully push for another good run here, because the Rangers are going to be just as hard or even better."
