[saynototrolling]

"here comes martin laPOINTE!" i love how excited gary thorne got when he called hockey games

[tmoore4075]

That place was going nuts those 2 games. It was like it's finally here.

[Frozintoe]

Good God, what the fuck was hextall doing?

I mean, Marty Lapointe was good, but watch the 6th goal of this game for the wings, Lapointe Fired, and Hextall, kind of just sat there, and let it in, he was just terrible, my god

[Rubba0Band0Man]

well on this particular goal, he obviously thought Doug Brown was going to try a rap-around and went to cover the far post. Although, you're right, he did have a rather bad series. (ex: Lidstrom's goal from Game 4 that went unscreened 5-hole from the blue line)

[Frozintoe]

I do recall this goal, I also would like to point out Yzermans Game 1 Blue Line Knuckler

[Rubba0Band0Man]

Heh, well Yzerman was the master at those shots. Remember, he score essentially the same goal against St. Louis in Game 5 of the '97 WCF, not to mention that OT winner in '96. But Hextall did get deked out of his jock by the lugnuts Joe Kocur and Darren McCarty in Games 1 and 4 of this series as well.

Maltby's game 2 blue line laser, In which garth snow was the netminder

[Rubba0Band0Man]

Haha, yep. Anything you don't know about this series??

[Frozintoe]

Classic Series on NHL Network

[Rubba0Band0Man]

lol yea I have that on my DVR along with the '98 and '02 series! NHL Network rocks

[Frozintoe]

It's pretty chillin'

[FuturePBABowler]

You know he was bad when Garth Snow got a start this series.

[apode1]

yea sens got him

[thegarbinator]

I think he plays for Boston.

[theultimatevideouplo]

Uh, that was a long time ago, like before the lockout

[thegarbinator]

Oh I just remember seeing a recent clip of him in Boston. Must have been a flashback.

[DaHonestAbe]

Lapointe scored two in this game.

[venzetti8]

Drop the ticket prices so it can be loud and packed again.

[Zackattack52287]

[weirddaytoday]

[jackbully12345]

[roadiejr]

Hextall was brutal

[FuturePBABowler]

The whole Flyers team was brutal. They only scored 6 goals in 4 games.
