  • Best year of hockey ever! Go devils!

  • Even though I'm more of a basketball and football person, but I do miss this kind of NHL Hockey. This postseason was one of the most exciting that I've ever seen (considering the fact that I am a Carolina Hurricanes fan, which sucked that year...lol). But yeah, the NHL needs to CEASE the RBK EDGE jerseys and have home teams wear WHITE!!!!

  • Sens, Ducks, Devils and Wild

    Jesus Christ its a Forgotten Franchise Frozen Four!

  • @fetchy15 The Wild, Devils and Sens disagree sir.

  • Ever since this playoffs I always hated the Devils first they beat my Sens, then they beat the Ducks

  • RIP Pat Burns and Ruslan Salei

  • Damn devils, beat my Sens and then the Mighty Ducks

  • Back when gomez could score...

  • These were a hell of a playoffs, going to miss these days when it wasn't all about skill but heart and determination.

  • @GoPensGo377 aint that the truth,it's a real shame what they've done to the sport,theyve taken away everything that made hockey unique,wasnt the biggest,fastest or strongest who won,but who was willing to leave it all on the ice,and that just doesnt exist anymore

  • I loved Anaheim's jersey when they were the Mighty Ducks. Back then Kariya was the man. And this is coming from a lifelong Red Wings fan.

  • RIP Salei =[

  • LETS GO DEVILS!!!!!

  • best playoffs ever!!!

  • I remember 2003 for this, and only this: It was the last season the Leafs will EVER make the playoffs. :D

  • @npage009 they made the playoffs the following year and got to the second round!

  • @npage009 k i will correct you by saying the last time the leafs made the playoffs was 04 where we beat the sens to a pulp in 7 games but lost in the next round :(

  • GO OILERS GO!

  • Awesome tribute, I just wish they could've used Gary Thorne's call on ESPN of Kariya's shot "OFF THE FLOOR! ON THE BOARD! PAUL KARIYA!" by far my favorite sports quote of all time and I'm not even a Ducks fan lol

  • Cannots choked that year too

    ha ha

  • Giguere was amazing that year, he single handedy swept my Wild :(

  • god damn flyers..... :(

  • whats the song

  • @gamerboys1 "Times Like These"- Foo Fighters

  • LOL seeing the leafs in this vid just makes me lul

  • I love how when Giguère accepts the Con Smythe he doesn't raise it, he holds it as if its too heavy for him to bear, as if its weighing him down. He's accepting an award yes, but not victory. That image juxtaposes perfectly with the devils raising the Stanley Cup above their heads afterwards. I love the raw emotion tied with this sport.

  • this is my favorite playoff year

  • Does anybody know where I can find a video that has a pose ot yzerman and sakic in it? It was at the start of the playoff in 2007, Roy and other players talk about how hard is the playoffs. I use to watch it on youtube but I cant find it

  • Can't wait for the playoffs this year! Go sharks!

  • Man i really wish the ducks won that year. They were on a roll!!!

  • I loved the 2003 playoffs; the return of marque Canadian teams in the playoffs, great goal-tending, major upsets, 7 game series, and Pat Burns winning the cup.

  • The '03 playoffs are one of my favourites for one thing. Pat Burns finally winning the cup. RIP Pat.

  • Whos the lady at 1:24?

  • @TheWileycyote95 if i remember right that is the mother of rob and scott neidermayer.

  • @TheWileycyote95 First of all its a man and secind I believe the owner?

  • @carcake3 Ur an idiot

  • @TheWileycyote95 Sorry I didnt mean to say an answer that was bad and no im not

  • @TheWileycyote95

    Rob and Scott Niedermeyar's Mother

  • hi?

  • This was obviously the most amazing year in the NHL...in the east Two of the best teams NJ and Ottawa dominated and when they met in the ECF it was probably one of the best series Id ever seen in my life..not to mention on the west, Anaheim sweeping the champs, beating the first seeded team in one of the most craziest/unpredictable runs in history, and let us not forget minnesota in their first ever Playoffs apperance making it to the WCF. Idk what but we need hockey like this again pronto!!!

  • @Julian24151 The Devils' win almost seemed a little ho-hum when all was said and done, but agreed, 2003 is probably the most memorable playoffs since the first lockout.

  • @CanadianGuitarist yea...but What do you mean by ho hum?

  • @Julian24151 I don't mean this as a shot at the Devils, but in a way, their third title in eight seasons kind of took away some of the lustre of a playoffs rife with upsets and newcomers.

  • That end of that video still saddens me... Go Ducks Go!

  • This video was disappointing as a Wild fan. We mad a huge run as a cinderella team and eliminated two top teams with great talent.

  • imagine if ottawa beat new jersey...

  • @wiisports505 HAHAHA thats the only way ottawa will ever win anything.

  • @wiisports505 too bad there was a man named jeff friesen playing :P

  • @wiisports505 if ottawa had beat new jersey... then the ducks would have beat ottawa, silly

  • i no i luved them to they were the best jerseys ever the ones they have now suck

  • aah the old GOOD ducks jersey's. why did they have to change them, they are not my fav team back then nor now, but the old jersey's were SOOOOOOO much better you cant deny it!

  • It was guys like Madden, Freisen and Pandolfo that won the Cup for NJ... from a Ducks fan, they were equivalent to our Niedermayer, Pahlsson and Moen in '07

  • I've been watching the NHL since 1994 and this playoffs was easily the best:

    -7th seed Ducks went to game 7 of the Finals

    -Wild won 2 series while trailing 3-1

    -Flyers/Leafs was a physical series

    -Devils upset the Sens in the ECF

  • Comment removed

  • woah, the leafs were in the playoffs? Lol!

  • believe it or not the leafs hadnt missed the playoffs since the 80s before the lockout. And then like alot of the better teams before the lockout they had to tear apart and rebuild because of the cap. And all the shitty teams with cap space signed all the players that were bought out that year.

  • This is the best cbc montage by far

  • even though the ducks won the cup in 2007, this playoff run was more memorable.

  • @19avalanche21 yeah, it sure as hell didn't hurt that Giguere by himself brought attention to the whole "goalies are big as picnic tables" discussion. What has Giguere done since then? Nothing.

  • @countrygentleman10

    won a cup in 2007?

    no must have been my imagination.

    First 3 rounds of the playoffs Giguere dominated like no other goalie ever has. Pads had little to do with it.

  • For all the arguing, let me say this. Hockey will never be like this again, it's sad. Best time to be a hockey fan was pre-lockout..not this day in age with Edge jerseys and lame new rules. Let's not forget Bettman (oh wait, he's been around for ages).

  • One of the best posts I've ever read by someone on Youtube.. can't be tru enough

  • @Jumowbray

    Thank you, that is kind of you to say that. I will always remember the old NHL, along with the Mighty Ducks jerseys..truly unique.

  • @lpmoora plus the Flyers new jerseys look fuckin retarded.

  • @lpmoora nhl players like the nhl better now because its safer ... before scott stevens gave head hits and people didnt give a shit and players hooked like crazy. Personally i like the game alot better now . And what dont you like about the new edge jerseys?? (just curious). But i agree that bettman has to go thought....

  • @max432156 Sorry for the late response. I do agree with you on the safety of the players, however it's not exactly perfect. I'm sure you know what I mean with the current events. The game has lasted for quite a while, and these freak accidents and such are part of the game, that's just how I see it. The edge jerseys are improving with thirds, but to me the edge jerseys ruined some jerseys big time, with the odd side piping on the flames to the (post) sabres. It's obviously different now!

  • @lpmoora Now, I agree that hockey will never be the same as pre lockout, but I have to ask, how to the edge jerseys make any real difference? lol

  • @korytyler21 I would say the identity of the game really. I think NHL sweaters kill all othersports. There were good and bad sweaters from RBK, however I miss the older jerseys. A good example is the Sabres when they first showed off the modern logo and the piping is just downright wrong. Ducks got screwed out of a unique color scheme, Dallas shot themselves in the foot (and still are), Avalanche side piping was great, and so forth. There are good jerseys from the switch, so it's a balance.

  • @lpmoora don't forget the backass thing about the home jerseys being their away jerseys

  • @TAG037 I completely forgot to add that to my list. That was also a change that was just questionable. I like seeing other's teams primary colors in my stadium. Grr miss the old NHL.

  • @lpmoora that was implemented the year BEFORE the lockout, note the colors in the 2004 Playoffs, while I agree that was questionable and I liked the home team wearing white, it wasn't as damning as the post lockout rule changes that you've already discussed

  • the finals werent boreing they had one of the bigest hits ever and probably the most memorible story kariya is a beast and stevens is probably the best hitter the nhl's ever seenand a hall of famer kariya deserves his number retired by the ducks bobby ryan shouldnt be able to wear it. but yeah these finals werent the best but they werent boreing it was a good battle.

  • fuckin devils.

    ducks were a way better story that year.

    yup its 2009 and i am still bitter.

    honestly i will never remember that year as the devils winning the stanley cup. I will remember it as the year that anaheim had the most outrageous season ever. giguere was stunning. kariya rocked. oh my god. ozolinch..ah..

    was it just me or was that hit on kariya totally illegal. he didnt even have the puck. i didnt know that until now. i would have been way more angry back then if i knew that!

  • you sound like an idiot. get over it. you got your cup 4 years later. the devils were a better team, and the hit was perfectly legal. he came back and scored a goal in the same game, what else did you want? grow up and accept a loss and congratulate those that defeat you moron.

  • You sound like a fool. Maybe they were very slightly better of a team, maybe it was complete luck, either way the Devils were a boring team. The hit wasn't legal if you watch it.

  • THat's coming from a Rags fan...lol Thanks for the Devils respect, bro

  • yeah but every team anaheim played that year was a better team but giguere just carried them through it, no doubt it was the best playoff goaltending performance of all time...

  • Marty had 3 shotouts in the finals. He was the best.

  • Can I get you a box of tissues to go with that. Stevens was the one that rocked.

  • Stevens was awful, probably why he retired.

  • stevens was a hall of famer probably one of the most feared checkers and stingy defensive defenceman to ever play the game. he played in over 1600 games and recorded over 900 points. So dont speak about things you know nothing about.

  • @rbcatholic50

    nope, are you?

  • no new jersey was terrible they weren't as good as the ducks. Brodeur and friesen are the only reason they made it that far. The sens should have made it. The ducks would had beat them

  • im sorry but ducks had nothing on the devils, ducks won 2 back to back ot games, and in games 1,2,5,7 devils beat ducks in a suitable fashion!

  • Yes. 3 shutouts to boot.

  • who won the cup that year

  • watch the video

  • oh come on, the ducks were an average team that rode a hot goalie all the way to the finals. i agree that the devils didn't play as well as they could have, but the Friesen/Niewendyk/Langenbrunne­r line was incredible, they had two Hall of Fame defensemen, and Brodeur was just as good as Giguere.

  • 58 seconds lol.........the year roy left with his head down! deuche bag!

  • The clip of Cherry and Wild wing is classic...I miss those jerseys.

  • the ducks should have won the cup that year for sure they ha the better goaltending and wayy better defense than new jersey screw the devils

  • yeah ok, devils whipped ducks ass quit your crying, and no screw u!

  • the mighty ducsk deserved to win the cup way more than new jersey did. the mighy ducks had an amazing playoff rn that year and deserved to win it all. they should have won it all. new jersey is a shit team

  • You're out of your mind. New Jersey has one of the best of the training camps in the NHL, some of the best commentator, some of the best defense, the best goaltending. New Jersey was the better team that year. Get over it, sore loser!

  • no ur are

  • LETS GO RED WINGS!!!

  • ☻/

    This is bob post him on as many vids as possible and get him on the news

  • the dvils have a chance to win the cup

  • has brodeur ever won the coon smythe

  • never

  • i agree. that hit was 5 years late

  • Gaborik is the greatest

  • lol where did that come from

  • best playoffs ever, the ducks and wild shocked everyone

  • giguere was fkin amazing

  • i think the sharks really have a good chance of bringing the cup home

  • jean sebastien giguiere was absolutely sensational during those playoffs...that really jump started his career

  • This is one of the CBC's best. Just fantastic. "I'm a little divided" for Mrs. Niedermeyer was awesome.

  • the sharks will poebally win the cup

  • As I Wild fan these playoff series were awesome. The two wins against the Avs and the Cunucks were great. Then Anaheim had to end our run. At least the Devils won the cup in the end. All in all, the 2003 playoffs were a great time.

  • Great video, this was a great playoff, so many upsets. Ducks/Devils was a great battle the Ducks were such an underdog too bad they choked in game 7. I'll never forget those sick saves by Jiggy or how Kariya got up and scored after that hit.

  • this was my first stanley cup as a real hockey fan. i was around 10 at the time. it showed me that hockey is different from most sports, and it has so much more meaning than other sports too. really hard to explain i guess d: but hockey is a beautiful game.

    poor giggy played his heart out, i felt so bad for the guy. but he got to hoist the cup later on, so it's all good now. lol.

    rangers for 08-09 stanley cup champs. if sather stops being retarded and resigns shanny we're going all the way :P

  • I'm glad you got to watch the best team win for your first one.

  • is that a devils fan trash-talking, i hear? [if not im sorry. lol]

    well lets see if you guys can win more than 1 game against us in the regular season this year. until then i dont really think you have any right to trash-talk.

    YOU CANT BEAT US!!! :P

  • Ummmm........we fucked you guys up 8-5 wit Clemmenson in net. The Rangers suck.

    LET'S GO DEVILS

  • Hey retard, you have played 7 more games the us.

    Lets see tomorrow's game then which ever team wins can talk shit ok.

    LET'S GO DEVILS

  • Ok bro, you think the rangers are amazing. They suck. The Ranger's theory is money wins championships cause they spend 5 million fucking dollars on each player and money doesn't win championships. Just look at the Yankees. They use tht theory to. They also suck.

    LET'S GO DEVILS

    LET'S GO REDSOX

  • Dangler.... have you not heard of the recently instituted SALARY CAP? If they were spending 5 mill on the 20 player active roster... alone that would be 100$. check your math... and your statements. GO HABS!

  • 4-2 bro. Devils dominated. You can't say anything now because the season series is tied at 2.

    Let's Go Devils

  • Last season is last season. that means shit this season.I mean I'm pretty sure you don't get points for wins last season.

    Let's Go Devils

  • And also, we have had season against you guys where we won all the games, but never showed off, and you guys have 1 good season and you think your the top of the world. Rangers Suck.

    Let's GO Devils

  • Hey guys, chill... we all really know san jose is going to win the cup.

  • Nah bro.....they have no playoff experience. I mean don't get me wrong, they are a great team, but always get knocked out of the playoffs in the 1st or 2nd round,

    LET'S GO DEVILS

  • lmao not only that but you scored 5 goals on clemenson.. sucha good goalie huh lmao. habs fan here; ill say the rangers and the habs are pretty much equally match, either team can blow out a win. Thanks to Langs natural hat trick we won last week.

  • nice song!

  • poor gigiure

  • Ottawa should of won that series against New Jersey in 2003 if Redden didn't pick up Fressin in front of the net!

  • Whose "Fressin" .. Friesen* ?

    Redden is so over-rated.. now hes with the Rag$ and getting overpaid with a ridiculous contract. But thats Glen $ather for u

  • Sens would have won if the refs to didn't screw Hossa over.

  • wat do u mean wat happend

  • In game 7, the game winning goal was right there for Hossa, and then that fucker John Madden slewfoots Hossa and gets way with it. Just a short while after that, New Jersey scores and wins the game.

  • lol Madden.. As if hes some goon like Chris Neil. Call me when u Sens losers win a Cup and stop crying.

    GO DEVILS

  • the ottawa senators already have 7 cups. or didnt you know that? the only CURRENT franchise in canada without a cup by name is the vancouver canucks, the millionares won it, but never the nucks, both the ottawa silver 7s and ottawa senators have alot of cups and banners on their ceilings. And dont call neil a goon. You know whos a goon? Pronger.

  • like give him a penlty

  • HOW did u get this song in a diffent verson

  • uh....First of all, CBC put this video together. Not me.

    Secondly, this song can be found by searching for the "acoustic" version. This version of the song wasn't released on any of the Foo Fighters' albums.

  • Red Wings.

    You are hilarious.

    There was no clips of them this year because they got swept by a seventh place team that wasn't suppose to make it out of round one.

    Mighty Ducks all the way that year.

  • mighty ducks all the way that year? i thought they lost to new jersey in the finals, but that's just me, i could be wrong. watch the wings own the ducks next year with their unstoppable line-up and win the cup for the 5th time in 12 seasons.

  • this was a great playoff, giguere was amazing

  • how did the ottawa do that year the were good too right

  • oh yeah, they did great, they made game 7 of the east finals!

  • yup thats right

    ...hossa screwd us over

  • And I gotta say they could've thrown in at least one Red Wing highlight...not a very good playoff tribute. The one's they do now are better at least...and the Cup's ours now! Back in Hockeytown where it belongs! Windsor Red Wing fan ;)

  • the red wings were brutal that year, why should they even get any highlights? and the tribute this year was terrible btw

  • Just because you're overated Ducks weren't in it...HA! Please, if it wasn't for Giguere you guys would've got your asses kicked if not by Detroit than one of the other teams in the West, thank God the deserving Devils won not a flash in the pan like Anaheim, you gotta love Scott Stevens ;)

  • In my book this playoff was the most boring I've ever seen...the trap was taking over and every game was way too long, like 3, 4 boring overtimes. I give Babs and the Ducks credit for their Cinderella run but if it wasn't for Giguere they'd lost to Detroit in the first round...thank God they redesigned the game and this brutal, unexciting defensive style hockey is GONE!

  • yeah wat the pens did was just at bad as the 2003 devils booing Giguere for winning the mvp

    but he eventaully won the cup

  • The Devils booed him? Actually the entire team have him a round of applause.

    Some of us fans booed because we believed Brodeur deserved the CS for his 3 finals shutouts, but thats history, Giguere did have an incredible run but Brodeur got the real trophy that season. Thats all that matters.

  • beautiful... what a great year for playoff hockey, this year was a disgrace.. im also offended by the pens fans booing during the cup presentation too.. lack of class and respect.. long live the old nhl...

  • no kidding! I'm also disgusted by the Pens fans behaviour. Last year they kept booing the Canadian anthem during the Ottawa series.

    This year...the cup presentation. And I especially hate seeing other arenas immitate the original "white-out" from the Winnipeg Jets. And yes...long live the "old NHL"!

  • i know i miss the old nhl

  • nothing but hockey.

  • This years playoffs were a major dissapointment it was way to predictable its beeen like this the past two years the playoffs in 2006-2007 suck and 2007-2008 suck i miss the playoffs like they were in the early 2000's unpredictable with the underdog seeming to always make it,it was awsome!!

  • Great underrated series in the East Finals. The Sens were the best team that year, the best offense too. That years Devils team was a very good 2 seed. 108 points, bes defense. Devils took Ottawa down in a great game 7 of a great series. One chapter of a great overall playoffs.

  • Seeing Rob congratulate his brother was sad man..

  • that years playoffs were so fucking awesome

  • Can you please post the ones for 06, 07, and this season? If you can of course. CBC does a great job with these.

    I miss Stevens. I miss the old Devils, period. Come on Lou, make them a bona fide contender again.

  • Actually, I don't have the 2006 vid...and the 2007 vid was already uploaded by other users.

    And for sure once the playoffs are over, I'll upload this year's version!

  • Thanks alot! This vid and song make me so happy. Especially because of the Devils major suckage recently.

  • Whats the one for 07 called???

  • the devils did not take a game in anaheim en route to the cup. the ducks woulda took a hell of a lot of pride in that. all through their improbable run i was like how are they doing it? knock out the top 2 seeds in the conference and then cruise to the campbell trophy against a minnesota team that chose not to skate in that series.

  • Now this was an awesome playoff year.

    LOADS of battles.

    The sens coming back from 3-1 vs the devils to force a memorable 1 goal game in game 7.

    The Ducks cpt kariya coming back from that monstrous hit to score later.

    That was an awesome playoff year.

  • Don't forget:

    Wild coming back down 3-1 TWICE,

    Canucks coming back down 3-1 once,

    Leafs-Flyers 3 multiple overtime games!

  • As a sens fan it was exciting.

    Our first trip to the eastern conf finals.

    And we had a good come back effort.1 goal short of goin to the cup to face the ducks...ha.what are the odds.

    Go sens go.

  • It really was an exciting playoff year. Especially because the Devils won the Cup. Oh I fell in love with Friesen then. ;)

    Oh, and for the record, I was rooting hard for the Sens to win last season. This season too. :(

  • stevens is a monster
