En regardant cela avec un regard neuf, plus de 25 ans plus tard, il y a eu toutes sortes de coupures sans vergogne, de contrôles croisés à la tête et au cou, de coups de pied, de coups de poing au visage, de bagarres, c’est étonnant qu’il y ait du hockey. Je ne suis pas du tout choqué de voir à quel point le Colorado nous détestait, et nous avons mérité une grande partie de cette colère. Ne vous méprenez pas, putain de Colorado, ce sont de sales connards. Mais merde. Nous aussi.

It sure was one hell of a rivalry, I wish I was around to see it.
The hit on Draper started it all. We needed that game on March 26 1997 so evolve into a championship team.
Espn’s unrivaled is a must watch!
I was 17. I haven’t experienced anything like it since. It was so intense. It’s hard to describe. My whole family watched every playoff game together and just lived and died by every moment. My dad went to game 7 in 2002 and got me a hat at the game.
I had my second kid when they won there first cup in 97 and watched 98 as well, that is such a different time now, hockeys changed drastically
That season made me what I am now.
Every series in 97 was brutal, that was hockey
You also have to understand the history. Throughout the 90s the wings were called soft and that even stuck with them after the first cup. Philadelphia was a “playoff team” and supposed to take ‘em out. The wings played with a lot of chips on their shoulders. The hit on Drapes and the idea that this soft team could never win in the playoffs.
