The 2008 playoffs was for me an awakening return to hockey. I lived in Montreal for 8 months only and had forgotten all about hockey since the Jets left in 1996. I was a University student at Concordia and was exiting the building after completing an exam when I heard a loud excited crowd in the university bar, I went in discovering a hockey game, second of the2008 series projected on a large screen . I got caught up in the excitement and became a Habs fan before the end of the night and followed the series to it's desired conclusion.

This was a fun game regardless the score.

The 2002 and 2004 game 7's were boring as $)$%

There was no game 7 in 2002.

There was too much on the line, and too much suspense in the 2004 game 7 for it to be boring. The game was tied until very late. It felt like OT started early.

If anything, it was the 08 game 7 that lost all suspense in the 3rd period, as the final score was something like 5-1.
