let's not forget that Mario Lemieux retired because he got cancer. HE DEAFEATED IT. THEN CAME BACK and STILL lead the league in points. imo one of the best player that has ever touched the game.
He also used to be a pack a day smoker so health problems were bound to happen Im pretty sure he used to smoke in between periods too he was a great talent but a cig fiend
k thanks bc i couldn’t understand how he already had a jersey and everything ready to go if he was just there to watch. Somehow ended up here after the PWHL playoff final. idek. My first season watching hockey so I was checking out the Bertuzzi Moore incident bc someone just randomly mentioned it and three hours later I’m here. Glad I wasn’t completely off base thinking this was odd.
Ray Bourque was traded to Colorado for EXACTLY this reason. Boston was not going to win the Cup while Bourque was a player. Boston did the right thing and sent him to a team that had a great chance to win it all.
@@munkustrap2The way I understood it, when the GM told him he was going to Colorado he told him: "I know this isn't your first choice, But I really believe it's your best shot." So classy by the Avalanche having Bourque get the first skate with the cup, Sakic went next, then Rob Blake who had played 11 years without winning a cup.
"Ayers was just sitting in the stands with his wife. The Hurricanes started searching the crowd for an emergency goalie." No, every arena has 1 emergency back up goalie at every game for either team to use, they don't ask the crowd who can play.
fun fact with the Craig Anderson moment. the money raised that night in Edmonton all went to the Canadian cancer foundation, there was no 50/50 every cent went that night.
A big one you missed…Bernie Geoffrion was a star for many years for the Montreal Canadiens and played for them his entire career and coached the team as well (how well he coached can be debated). His son played for the team also, though not a star The Canadiens, having not done so for quite a while, decided to retire several numbers, along with his number (finally) in a short span of time. Geoffrion bled blue, white & red & was extremely proud to have been associated with the team for so long. He passed away the night before the ceremony. Members of his family attended the ceremony, it was so sad to watch what would have been one of Geoffrion’s proudest moments, and to see his family there was heartbreaking 💔
Yea agreed. Narrated like a true tennis enthusiast. 4 goals in a period ... "I didn't even think that was possible" Really? Enough to make me skip any future videos from this guy...
I know right? Just that he retired and came back. The reason it all happened and was impressive was his fight with cancer. Bad video all around with that cringy narrator.
I felt like Badger Bob should have been mentioned here, He coached the pens to their first cup just to pass away before the next season, Pens winning back to back was for him.
How about Normand Léveillé who had a brain aneurysm on ice in '82. He suffered significant brain damage. Other emotional ones: Clint Malarchuk (Buffalo), Rich Peverly (Dallas)
You're kidding right? Nothing on Bruins player Normand Léveillé??? I'd say his returning to the original Garden for a last skate on it's ice was extremely emotional, never mind how his career ended. For those who don't know (& for speed & ease I'm going to copy & paste)... "On October 23, 1982, after the first period in a game against the Vancouver Canucks in Vancouver, British Columbia during his second season with the Bruins, Léveillé complained of feeling dizzy & having pains in his shoulder. As the trainers began tending to him, he lost consciousness. He was rushed to a local hospital, where doctors diagnosed a brain aneurysm. Léveillé was rushed into emergency surgery in an effort to save his life. After surgery, he was comatose for three weeks & remained hospitalized for an additional three weeks." "In 1995, the Boston Bruins invited Léveillé to the closing ceremonies of the Boston Garden, where he was allowed to skate on the Garden ice one last time. Bruins captain Ray Bourque helped escort Léveillé around the ice surface." By escort they pretty much mean pull. He could barely walk. I'd say those were pretty emotional events.
If you ever disrespect mario like that again saying came back from retirement cause he was bored I swear you will pay lol he retired due to cancer and came back after he beat it
Come for the clickbait thumbnails, stay for the compilations Out of clickbait thumbnails, which one do you like the most: - Hole in the ice - Woman in bikini on the ice - Woman flashing herself at Alex Ovechkin - Jumbotron crashing onto the ice during game
For the woman flashing herself at Alex Ovechkin it was kinda real because it did happen in the video but not directly, it was Alex Ovechkin holding the cup and when his back was turned, the woman lifted her clothes but Alex didn't even see.
if youre gonna make these videos tell the truth and do your research!!! Carolina did not search for a goalie Ayers was the EBUG for both teams if needed! As for Mario he had to retire do to Leukemia or something and when he went in to remission he decided to try playing again he DID NOT JUST GET OFF THE SOFA AND PLAY AGAIN.....
As soon as I heard “Pell” Lindbergh, I knew the guy didn’t know hockey. Referring to the “Smithie” division confirmed it. As did the filler in between.
Bourque’s trade to Colorado wasn’t really a blessing in disguise, he had asked for a trade to a contender as he was nearing the end of his career, wanted a chance to win a Cup and knew he wasn’t going to win one in Boston… also, how could you leave out when terrorists attacked Ottawa and St-Jean sur Richelieu and the victims were honoured by Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto singing O Canada in unison?
'Searching the crowd for an emergency goalie' - proving you don't follow the NHL. Ayers was the designated Emergency Back-Up Goaltender - there is one at every NHL game, provided by the home team for exactly for these situations. Clickbait stuff.
How about when the Humboldt Broncos hockey team was destroyed when a truck smashed into their team bus? Every single professional hockey player could relate since they all had spent many, many nights travelling from town to town on just such a bus. It hit very close to home.
They did show a clip of two teams in Broncos jerseys paying their respects, but it was in the Brittanie Cecil clip. I suppose the video editor thought it was close enough. It was an emotional moments in NHL history, not hockey history video - otherwise I would think the Humboldt Broncos and the Yaroslavl Lokomotiv should be included as well. Tragic ending for all of them.
Smithee division? Get a damn clue and stop using AI. It's the SmYthe division. Y as in I. I was actually at the Miracle on Manchester and was sitting in the nosebleed section. The place had nearly emptied out by half after the Oilers took a 5-0 lead. To this day I don't know why I stayed. I was literally in a direct line from where the game winning shot was taken and could follow it all the way into the net. I kept the ticket stub but 42 years and 6 moves later, I have no idea what happened to it.
Thats not how it works bud. The Canes ďidnt happen to pick him out of the crowd to play goalie lol. Every NHL arena has an emergency goalie in the building in case an emergency goalie is needed for either team. All teams have a backup goalie on the bench but on the rare occasion both goalies get injured in the game, and it has happened a few times, the game can continue. Chicago also had to use their EBUG in 2018 ( Emergency Back Up Goalie ), a 36 year old accountant named Scott Foster
Good video. You missed the Wings winning the Cup for Konstantinov in 98 after learning about his car accident. I hated rhe Wings, but that Cup celey was touching.
Eddie Giacomin returning as A Detroit Red Wing to Madison Square Garden, to they cheers of Eddie! & Rangers' Fans were rooting against their own team & for Eddie was very emotional & should've been included. Let me know what you think
The first one? That Goalie? Great Story but just ib case you didn't think too hard about this, please understand that the Hurricanes JUST HAPPENED to have a jersey with Ayres name on it -- sitting in back... Come on people, ya gotta try harder than that!
Doesn't take long to get one stitched up. Every arena has an emergency backup goalie should such a thing happen. Especially rare for 2 goalies to get hurt in the same game. Probably what inspired it: there was a case a few years ago in Florida Roberto Luongo got injured in the 1st period, they pulled him for backup Al Montoya, in the 3rd period Montoya pulled his groin, He tried to play through but was clearly struggling. The team was scrambling, they considered playing without a goalie the rest of the game, putting forward Scott MacKenzie in (he had some goalie experience), Coach Robb Tallas ended up suiting up and was about to come into the game, but somehow they managed to get Luongo back to the arena and dressed and since his injury was apparently not so bad, he finished the game.
Ummm... Stevie Y giving the Cup to Vladdy and the team following him for the first lap? I'm damn near 40 and still sob like a kid with a skinned knee when I see that clip.
Why cover the face of the girl who you are memorializing? There is plenty of room on the screen to put it elsewhere. She is still talked about at the area. Last time I was there, pre COVID, a father was explaining to his kids why the nets were behind the glass and said remember her when you see them.
Edmonton trading Gretzky is as bad a deal and as bad a trade as the Boston Red Sox selling Babe Ruth to the Yankees... The Greatest hockey player (to date) wins you 4 Stanley Cups and you trade him??? Only lunatics would do that...or Red Sox ownership
Pelle didn't lose control he went straight on an elbow turn he was unfamiliar with.......caught the steps corner.....bad decision driving drunk bad luck hit worst part of wall would have been more of a glancing blow if he had not hit the steps.....last great flyers goalie.....
let's not forget that Mario Lemieux retired because he got cancer. HE DEAFEATED IT. THEN CAME BACK and STILL lead the league in points. imo one of the best player that has ever touched the game.

How would you prefer the narrating to be? More natural sounding? I’m looking to improve on this style of content

Ayres was the EBUG (Emergency Back-Up Goalie). He wasn't just "picked out of the crowd"

Exactly what I came to say. Dude made it sound like the Bruins did Ray wrong when in reality they purposefully gave him his chance for the cup.

Cliackbait, and no mention of Mario Lemieux having beaten cancer.
And he also said: 1 goal, 1 assist and 3 points …

Mario came back to stop pit from selling the team! Get it right
Sakic handed that cup directly off to Ray
Good job 👍
Gotta call you on this. The young lady tearing up at 17:55 was from a Pens game. Fleury's first game back. Be better.
Personally a Caniac, but the moment for Bourque with the Avs tears up my eyes. Like it’s a moment that is so feel good that fandom doesn’t exist.
I love the commentary call too. Let the moment breathe as soon as he touched the cup. Makes me emotional everytime.
How about Normand Léveillé who had a brain aneurysm on ice in '82. He suffered significant brain damage. Other emotional ones: Clint Malarchuk (Buffalo), Rich Peverly (Dallas)
Toronto Maple LEAVES? Defensive men? Smithy division? Who wrote the script for this?

Bourque wanted to go to a contender and Colorado was it. He 100% knew about the trade.

Was anyone else uncontrollably smiling in the first clip
As for the Cecil incident, 2 other fans were hit by the puck with minor to moderate injuries
Ayres story was great . My only question where did they get the jersey with his name on it so fast?
Usually, just tourist areas in Europe! Big cities, small towns, away from the crowds, very different.
Good video. You missed the Wings winning the Cup for Konstantinov in 98 after learning about his car accident. I hated rhe Wings, but that Cup celey was touching.

You could’ve thrown in Vladimir Konstantinov

Thing is puck can get deflected and go where there is no netting. And let’s be real. It’s 2024 get some type of clear netting.
It is always towards the net that the puck is shot the hardest. It is never shot that hard towards the center ice boards and glass.
First one is also wearing the opposing teams helmet 😂
Mr hockey know it all
When you retire numbers it’s so saf
