And he was either drunk or high during these times, too. Once a suffering soul, now a good guy :o)

my favorite player of all time, i was there when Theo did that OT goal against Ilves (pussies) and did that fantastic celebration after he scored, my best hockey moment. I remember when i was watching the first practice when theo came to Tampere, what a pro, he gave 110% on every practice even though he had a hangover. True professional, Little big Man, Theo pikku jättiläinen. Regards from Finland.

He didn't respect the opponent. Shameful.
-
Fleury knows how to celebrate, he did the same in Finland watch?v=rhFBYZrNM0Y

Who won the series?
-
Unfortunately,Esa Tikkanen's OT winner in Game 7 two nights later overshadows this great moment.
-
Don't think ol' Fleury was celebrating like that after Game 7
-
I scored in OT before and I did the same celebration!! GO THEO!

NHL 1995 to present doesn't measure up. Sorry it just doesn't.
This clip right here is classic NHL. When goalies wore equipment that conformed to their bodies and stars were aloud to shine and score goals.
Flames Win the Cup in 1989,Oilers Win in 1990(sans Gretzky).
1991 Oilers v Flames in Playoffs, one of the last Great Battle of Alberta Series'
This is Game 6, 1991 Playoffs. Messier (playing badly injured) gives it away and Fleury scores & celebrates (video) in Edmonton.
Game 7 in Calgary,Flames have momentum.Flames take 3-0 lead. Game over? Tikkanen scores to make it 3-1, then 3-2, 3-3. Tikkanen completes comeback to make it 4-3 and wins the series for the Oilers in OT.
Great Series!

I can't believe this was left off the History vs. History bracket that the NHL's doing.
I mean there are a lot of great playoff moments on there, but some of them don't even compare to this goal celebration.
I'm not saying it should win, but it should at least be in the top 64.
