It’s been 10 years already, (we’re all going to die very soon) since what was, in my opinion, the most story book finals of the salary cap era, and maybe ever.
Post your favourite memories of that team and that magical run.
A few notes rewatching the series highlights a decade later:
- Scuderi and Gill were good players but an awful pairing that should never have existed. Dreadful stuff.
- Orpik wasn’t as good as I remembered with the Free Candy hoopla out of the equation. He still chased hits and put Gonchar in a bad spot frequently.
- The league was much more violent even then and Cooke threw at least one suspend-able hit a game.
- That was still my favourite Cup win, it just had all the storylines and felt so improbable at times.
