PROMPT 2

As a player, Evert finds games where his team is leading by one the most stressful and tense games to be in since there is a lot of pressure not to let in a goal. As a goalie standing in the net with 5 minutes left in the third period in a 2-1 game is a special feeling because while you can taste the win you still know that a lot of stuff can change in 5 minutes during a hockey game and you don't want to let in a goal and dissapoint yourself and most importantly dissapoint the fans and the team. While you could argue that a tie game is more tense, I know that the other teams goalie also has pressure on him which makes it more plausible that he also makes mistakes. Gladly, Evert hasnt had one of those leading by one in the last period games yet.
