1964 Bobby Baun!

Right...
It was Baun. I always get the two players confused in temrs of who scored the goal. But you're right, it was Baun. I've always been amazed that the guy could even stand after that. These nancy boys today wouldn't put themselves through that to get the cup...

Bobby Orr's has to be the most famous.

How about Gelinas in game 6 last year? That became pretty famous

Pat Lafontaine's spinaround slapper past Bob Mason to finally end the marathon 4 OT classic between the Caps and the Isles.

That one was the first to come to my mind. I watched every minute and I was exhausted when it was over too.

Even though it was against my Canucks, Yzerman's effort that night brought a tear to my eye... Okay, I admit it. I blubbered like a baby. I really did.

It was a thing of beauty, and just when I thought it wasn't possible for my ultimate respect for Yzerman to get any higher it did. The Captain took "Not knowing the meaning of the word 'Quit' to a whole new level.

 

[Terrier]

A couple:


Petr Klima's OT goal that ended Game 1 of '90 Cup finals. Breaks my heart to this day.

Doug Gilmour's "cat and mouse" OT goal on Cujo at Maple Leaf Gardens.

Mario's 5-4 against the B'Hawks in the 1st game of the 1992 Stanley Cup finals with 13 sec. remaining. I think, this goal won Pittsburgh the cup. Chicago was on a 11-game winning streak ...

Not to mention Jagr's famous dipsy-doodle manuever through several 'hawks to tie the game.

 

[Steelhead16]

Bobby Nystrom starts a dynasty.

What is that you speak of? I seemed to have erased May 24th 1980 at 7:11 of overtime and Pete Peeters sitting on his butt as the puck went over his shoulder from my mind. Good thing too, because if I still thought about it 25 years later it would haunt me. Glad I have forgotten all about it otherwise it might eat at me 25 years later!!
