Ten years already...good lord.
According to my college roommates they didn't know I was capable of happiness until they watched those Finals with me.
Being the only person who truly cared running up and down the aisles of a sports bar in Montana high-fiving everyone is one of those memories I'll never forget. Picking a 'favorite' championship is silly, but none will ever mean as much to me as the Penguins winning that one after the decade from hell leading up to it (plus I was too young in '91 & '92 to truly appreciate them).
And yes, Game 7 against Washington gave the reaction that made my roommates actually want to watch the remainder of the playoffs with me.
I may not have been able to convert any of them to full-time hockey fans...but at least I got the guy who now lives in DC to despise the Capitals.
