The race for the Stanley Cup just got all the more interesting after the Chicago Blackhawks emerge victorious in Game 4 with a 6-5 overtime thriller on Wednesday against the Boston Bruins.

As a result the Hawks recapture home ice advantage after Brent Seabrook's slap shot beat Tuukka Rask with 9:51 gone in overtime.

"One of things we have talked about: Get pucks to the net," said Seabrook, a defenseman who also had the overtime goal in Game 7 of the Western Conference semifinals. "I just tried getting it on net, we had a great screen in front. ... It just found a way."

Patrick Kane had a goal and an assist for the Blackhawks, who had scored only five goals total in the first three games of the series and hadn't gotten the puck past Rask in more than 129 minutes going into Game 4. Bryan Bickell and Michal Rozsival had two assists apiece, and Corey Crawford made 28 saves for Chicago.

 "We're presenting this like a Game 7," Hawks winger Bickell said before the game.

"If we get the win, we'll be 2-2 going back home with momentum and home ice. Or it could be 3-1. I think it's do or die. This is the biggest game in a lot of guys' lives."

Game 5 of the best-of-seven series will be Saturday night, with Game 6 back in Boston on Monday.
