I seem to remember Vernon making one of the most spectacular glove saves I have ever seen on the 97 playoffs. I always thought it was one of the reasons he got the Con Smythe. From what I remember it was caught going around the back of the net lost the puck and had to skate around quickly diving to make the catch in air. Am I crazy or does anyone else remember that save?
I tried to look up the video clip of it on line but I can't seem to find it and now I am questioning if it actually happened or maybe I was drunk and it appeared way more amazing that it actually was. You know kind of like beer goggles for hockey. Saw a montage of greatest glove saves in recent history and it was not part of that but a Vernon catch from San Jose was.
I need help, is my fond play off memory just a side effect of to many Molsons or are these idiots missing one of the greatest saves in hockey history so they can make room for 5 different Roy saves.
