we get to watch the game in full settle down everyone

There is an NHL Productions DVD out there called "Game 7 Collection," which has partial to full broadcasts of every Stanley Cup Final Game 7 in NHL History. The Red Wing games included in it are: Wings/Leafs 4/25/64 Wings/Habs 4/14/55 Wings/Habs 4/16/54 Wings/Rangers 4/23/50 Wings/Leafs 4/22/45 Wings/Leafs 4/18/42 It's a pretty neat DVD collection.

How about good ol' Doug Brown tying two club marks at the time with a hat trick and assist all in one period (the third) of a 5-4 victory over New Jersey on 12/19/97?

You know what this game looks like? It looks like the Leafs have been watching tape on the Wings since the schedule was released, looking for weaknesses. Ron Wilson knows he has a young team and that a win over Detroit would get them off to a great start mentally. In turn, the Wings have been thrown off a bit because the Leafs are executing well.

at least we're making Bettman work extra hours while he waits for an octopus to land on his head after the cup celebration

After getting back from the hospital from the two heart attacks I had during this overtime, I closed my eyes and threw a dart at my dartboard. It landed on #5. LIDSTROM WILL GET THE GOAL! Then I threw for the assists. #14 and #20. Lidstrom from Meech and Downey in a stunning turn of events. Then I realized I didn't have a heart attack and I'm really drunk and nervous right now. Thanks for listening. Or reading I suppose.

Come on Cleary! I pick YOU to score the OT winner for your first cup! COME ON! WE OWNED THE THIRD! REMEMBER NASHVILLE GAME 5! THEY SCORED LATE AND WE WON QUICKLY IN OT! LET'S DO THIS!!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHA this is by far the best one so far

Agreed......I always switch to CBC despite it's horrible picture because I hate that camera angle

DET/DAL: 4-3 PIT/PHI: 4-2

2002 because of the reasons mentioned before this post and, just as importantly, every game in the that series was down to the wire (except for game 1 i suppose) and you expected a very close game 7 based on the previous games

DET/COL: 4-2 SJ/DAL: 4-2 MON/PHI: 4-3 PIT/NYR: 4-2

I've been to regular season and playoff games at the Joe and regular season games at the Sommet. The Sommet had more energy and noise in the regular season game that any JLA playoff game I've been to. However, that doesn't mean our crowds are lame. It just means that their crowds are a little more insane when they play us. And they should be. It's a fact that Nashville fans hate the Wings more than any other team and they would love nothing more than to get their first ever series win against us. Sounds like a good enough reason to get pumped up to me.

Can't complain about this performance at all. I mean, Samuelsson was the only Red Wing in the minus, but would you expect anything more from him? I liked the physical play.
