1967 - I was 5 years old and didn't cry, but felt like I could have from the joy I experienced. I sure hope the Leafs win another cup in my lifetime, maybe making the playoffs might be a good start...

No I was only ten the last time the Devils won the Cup and I barely remember. At that age I didn't really watch the games regularly and wasn't nearly as invested.
Disbelief followed up jubilation then victory shots. Watched the guys skate around with the cup then ran 2 miles to causeway st to join in the celebration. Nothing like game 7s even though that one was sort of in the bag early on.
Last year I watched game 7 alone on the couch My wife came home half way through, and fell asleep in the 3rd. As the time ticked down to zero I just raised both arms straight up and had a ridiculous smile on my face. It was a pretty tame celebration. The other 3 series wins were actually far more rowdy.
I cried at times throughout the day of Game 7 and with 2 minutes left in the game it was complete waterworks.
I can't describe the feeling. If you've experienced it you know exactly what I'm talking about
Unlike the Nucks/Bruins series, the Pens/Wings was very close to the end. When Fleury made the ending save on Lidstrom, I just stood in shock for about a minute and then the waterworks flowed. You're exactly right, it's an indescribable feeling.

I cried at the end of game 7, but the opening night ceremonies . . . WOW. When the eam was introduced on the ice with Chara coming out with the cup followed by the team, then when they raised the banner up with the help of the old bruins players. I completely lost it there. Thankfully i had alot of die hards in my row so they were ballin too haha

Opening night was a 2 box night.
The I'm Coming Home video they showed after the ceremony made me lose it.
The '75 win happened when I was 8, and turned me into a Flyers fan, so I didn't have the emotional attachment. Plenty of tears with the oh-so-close appearances since, though. Loss to the Hawks made me laugh, actually, given the ridiculous SC-winning goal.
