Quote:I also stayed up for the triple overtime game vs. Fla and Col in 96.Me too! Great fucking game, I can't believe it was #10 on the ESPN list.
Quote:I don't know what year it was, but the Isles/Caps game that went into 4 ots if I remember correctly,was another great hockey game. It ended with Pat Lafontaine wristing a puck past the goalie at about 3:30 am. A truly classic gameThe Easter Epic, started Saturday night before Easter, ended early Easter Sunday. That one was an incredible game, taped it off of Classic Sports a while back. Kelly Hrudey made something like 70 saves that night/morning, incredible.
I'd also have to go with the Wings-Kings game 4 from last year's first round - the Stunner at Staples. Down 3-0 with 7:00 to play in the third, the Kings get 3, including the last with 51 seconds left, and win it in overtime, taking momentum and eventually winning the series 4-2 with 4 straight wins. Unfortunately, I didn't stay up for that one, but fortunately, nhl.com has a broadband section that includes the entire 3rd period and OT from the game, so I have watched it.
