I miss the old days when sports were sports and didn't mix in all this social justice garbage. Soon you will probably see NHL players wearing trans flag patches on their jerseys.
Like him or hate him, NO ONE CAN EVER question Ulf's toughness and dedication. If you want example of this, look at that final scramble in front of the net by the Hawks. If anyone wants to see the difference in how tough the guys were back then, compared to this group of Premadonnas in the league today, check out #5 on his knees, dead nuts in the middle of the crease while pucks are being fired at the net!!! Thats what it is to be 100% dedicated to the team and dedicated to WINNING!!! At all cost. I take a puck to the face, so what, DID WE WIN? Then that's all that matters. THATS what made this team so great. Try for a second to imagine what this team would've been like had Mario not gotten sick. They would've absolutely won that 3rd cup. And im betting a 4th. As Mario was still recovering from the radiation treatment the following year. But, I am appreciative to the fact that we got to watch the most talented player in NHL history as often as we did. As, a couple of times it looked like, what all, maybe he might not walk again let aline play hockey after his back surgeries, he might be done for playoffs after Graves slash broke his hand, and he might have not been around much longer after getting diagnosed!!! Anyone who wants to question how great he was only need hear what his doctor said. "There were literally nights when he was playing at 25% and he was still better than anyone else on the ice!". Simply the Best.

As a Caps fan, I still have nightmares of Lemieux, Jagr, Francis and Stevens on the same team 🙁
The great defensive forward Steve Larmer shows us h… ohh goodness he just let Lemieux walk right in.
They should’ve put rookie Hasek in there. He was phenomenal in game 4 despite the loss.
Michel Goulet had one of the best 80s-90s mustaches in the game. Really wish they won.
WTF is Barrasso doing behind the net in the final seconds?
Was Lemieux not taking a big chance going to the net like that (on the GWG)?
Mike Langes calls are much better
The loudest the Civic Arena ever was. What a great moment in Penguin history.
It’s was never luck with Ace. It’s was always a planned event.
Legend has it #68 Jagr is still playing and scoring goals…
Barraso
That final goal by Lemieux still has me jumping at my feet every single time

2:00 30 years later, I still have no clue what Steve Larmer was doing. 🤔
Nice to see Jim bleushi getting any camera time he can. No talent. Oh wait Blackhawks too
0:26 that would be a stoppage in play nowadays the glass broke loose
Wow. Amazing game. And what a time to be alive, the 1990s
I wonder how different the story would've been if the Hawks won game 1..
😊
Pens scored all weak goals, but they got the Win – Belfour let em in
Who is here reliving this great game because it was just announced that the Pens are FINALLY retiring Jag's legendary #68 in a few months?
I often wonder what if it was Rangers vs. Blackhawks.

You know you're very good when Jagr is only your second best player.
jagr is not human… this man is like 50 or something and puts on the gear to sub in for the team he owns lol. this man is the epitome of mastery
what the F is Barrasso doing behind the net with 3 seconds left.. hahahahahahaha
RIP MIKE LANGE
