@rovert40 not just of his career but one of the best saves of all time

One of the best games ever, always a tilt when these two get together. It's not often that a team wins three straight games in a row, much less all of them in overtime. And the Bure goal was just sick. The Canucks need to stop playing and hang his number in the rafters already.

I remember this game. I was 10 years old just getting into hockey and got my heart broken watching Bure pot that goal. I would like to say that the Flames perpetually disapointing play has changed since 1994, but I would be lying. One only needs to see their performance `EVERY SINGLE YEAR` to validate that. Maybe the cup curse is real.

@ECWnWWF so your saying because there are empty seats ( which tgere aren't! I looked) in a playoff game in calgary in 1994 canadians don't like hockey as much as tgey say they do......thats some dumbass logic

[okyouknowwhatever]

best game ever

[ECWnWWF]

wow the Flames fans  are very passionate, a big time playoff game, against a bigtime rival, and lots of empty seats... are you sure this isn't the Atlanta Flames? I thought Calgary, being in Canada, would be hockey crazed ... wow! way to support your team, Canada = hockey frauds.

@wcwnwoflamesrule 1994 and 2004 both clubs were pretty evenly matched up, 1989 series going into OT of Game 7 was a total fluke. Calgary was a dominant squad that year and Canucks were middle of the pack team, but McLean played terrific in Game 1 OT victory and McDonald missed almost all of the series. Otherwise, the series would probably have been over in 5 games.

Such good skaters on both teams. I see lots of hooking and holding that would be called nowadays but none of the slashing that ruined this years playoffs. This was great hockey.
