This is an older video, but it doesn't have many views so maybe it hasn't been posted here. Also, I thought it deserved its own thread since it's a pretty good collection and all Forslund/Neutral commentators, which can be sometimes hard to find. Mods can move if they disagree.
It's funny how many teams would KILL for just a few of these moments, and here are 15 great ones. They even had to leave out some pretty good ones (Buffalo Game 5 06 comes to mind first). Overall it's a pretty awesome way to kill 15 minutes, and it beats all the gloomy lockout talk.
The list:
15. Jokinen 3rd period go-ahead goal vs. Boston 2009 Game 4
14. Battaglia OT goal vs. New Jersey 2002 Game 2
13. Wallin OT goal vs. Toronto 2002 Game 2
12. 2006 SCF Game 1 ending
11. Jokinen OT goal vs. Boston 2008 Game 3
10. Weekes' save and Vasicek winner
9. Jokinen at the horn
8. Molson Miracle
7. Entire ending of 2006 Game 2 vs. New Jersey
6. Gelinas sends the Canes to their first SCF
5. Francis steals Game 1
4. Williams sends the Canes to their second SCF
3. Shock at the Rock
2. Scott Walker's redemption
1. The Cup
Phenomenal find. And yeah, #10 needs to be about 5 spots higher. The comeback to force game 6 and the reaction of the fans in 2000 was where Caniac Nation started to take off, but that game had to be the vindication for 2000, where we finally got over the hump and it looked like our turn in the east. Where we went from "that team down south" to legitimate.
For some reason, that Staal goal is by far my favorite goal. I don't know if it was the comeback, the importance of the game, or the lady saying "**** you" behind Staal celebrating. Or the fact that is was on Brodeur. Man do I love that goal.

I had actually never noticed that before. That's pretty ****ing sweet.
Looking back on the cup run, how huge was Rod's goal in game 3 of the MTL series? I know I'm kind of stating the obvious here but had he not scored that, there would have been no cup. Montreal was playing almost lights out until that goal, and then they deflated like a ballon.
The NHL Network (US) has been showing Wallin III in HD as part of their HD Classics series. According to my FiOS guide, they’re going to show it a few more times over the next couple of days, albeit at some inconvenient hours of the day. Furthermore, they’re apparently going to show Game 7 vs. Buffalo and Game 7 vs. Edmonton in HD next Monday afternoon. Set your DVRs, I suppose.
