The greatest hockey photo is one that I had in one of those hockey picture books when I was a kid. I've been unable to find it online. It shows an unmasked Harry "Apple Cheeks" Lumley, with a puck seemingly headed towards his face. The look on his face is one of sheer terror, it's hockey's version of "The Scream".

I don't know about the screm but this looks like it's about to hurt lmao.

 
I remember a story about that picture.

For the 25th (?) anniversary of the game, there was a lot of "where were you when Henderson scored" questions going around. Some young reporter who obviously hadn't been doing his research asked Yvan Cournoyer. His reply? "I was on the ice, and a moment later he was in my arms."
