Or the time he took a dive, wouldn't get up, the Nordiques get the puck, Sakic scores, but the ref blew the whistle microseconds before the goal, dissallowing it because of Kovalev. Then Kovalev gets up and skates off like nothing ever happened. I've never forgiven Kovalev or Van Hellmond for that one.
Do you remember Smiths Conn Smythe speech?How about Wayne Gretzky taking a dive against Billy Smith?

Defitnetley Martin Brodeur's most embarrassing moment. In the 03 Stanley Cup Final, Mighty Duck defensemen Sandis Ozolinsh wrists a shot in from center ice. It wasn't even really a shot, more like a dump in. Martin Brodeur goes to play it, then accidently drops his stick and the puck goes in off his stick. Hilarious as heck! Really flukey.
Brodeur can't read your thread because the 2003 Stanley Cup Championship Banner is blocking his view. You know that banner, the red and black one that has the Devils logo on it?
And in the funniest moment department....the Flames fan who tried to streak across the ice naked but when he jumped on the ice, he slipped, hit his head on the ice and knocked himself out cold. There he is, lying on the ice naked in front on 18,000 fans. Priceless.
- Barry Tabobondung getting stuck in his chair at the 1982 (?) NHL draft and having to be cut out deserves a mention.
C'mon.... the most embarrassing NHL moment...
2004-2005 Lockout that canceled the season.
How did that happen?
This is an excerpt; he has since passed away in heroic style:

Embarrassed on Draft Day: Tabobondung attended the 1981 NHL Entry Draft in Montreal, marking only the second year that junior players had attended the draft in large numbers beyond those likely to be taken in the first round. Tabobondung was so excited to be chosen in the third round that he jumped over the front row of seats at the Montreal Forum in order to greet Flyers officials at their draft table. Unfortunately, in one of the draft's most embarrassing moments ever, Tabobondung's foot got stuck in a folding seat, and arena attendants, along with Flyers special-assignments coach Joe Watson, needed at least five minutes in order to get Tabobondung out of the seat. One of the arena attendants had to unscrew a portion of the folding seat to free the player. As Tabobondung was being extracted from the seat, NHL executive vice-president Brian O'Neill, who was running the draft from the main podium, joked the Flyers could at least be sure that Tabobondung would be available for all of their games in Montreal. Flyers coach Pat Quinn responded to O'Neill's joke by saying "We gotta play the kid. Obviously, we can't afford to have him sit." Asked about the incident, Tabobondung jokingly told Jay Greenburg of The Hockey News that he wasn't even embarrassed and was glad glad he was able to "do something to get the attention off the first-rounders."
Robert Reichel taking a slapper on a penalty shot in the playoffs against Philly. I just sat there staring at my TV wondering if what I saw actually happened
Anybody remember Kovalev faking that wrist injury in the playoffs a while back in OT? Souray (his teamate) runs into him at the blue line....the puck's stolen by the forechecking foward (I forget the team/player) and they score ending the game and i believe the series.... classic "derp" moment
Do you remember Smiths Conn Smythe speech?
