Yes - because a screened shot from the point really shows that momentum exists.
How soon we forget that the Leafs had a breakaway with 3 minutes left in that game - I guess momentum stopped working during that time?
We were flat out dominated 5 on 6 that whole series. Call it "nerves" or whatever you want - the last 90 seconds of Game 7 was overdue from Games 5 and 6.
And that's the last I'll talk about "that game" for the next 20 years.
It wasn't that one goal that proves it, it was the 4 goals over 15 minutes or so that proves it. They controlled the game and yes our nerves and Boston's confidence changed the momentum of the game.
BTW breakaways usually occur when one team is getting dominated and one player breaks away. Bozak's patented short handed goals for example.
I totally agree with you, let's not talk about it anymore.
But I'm right.
