Stop it KV. I don't want to feel anymore ;) Scary to think how the first two games could have gone either way. What a relief it was to see us win both. Just unreal.
 
This is one of my top few most vivid memories of the playoffs. The second I saw the puck hit Kopi's stick I knew he was gonna win it for us.
My eyes were as wide as saucers when he skated in on Brodeur, and when I saw the puck slide over the line I very nearly hit the roof. Watching that goal gives me goosebumps every time :nod:
 
Lost in all the hoopla about JDubs pass (and righfully so), it wouldn't have happened without that nifty, off-the-boards chip pass by Doughty. Can't teach that either.
 
Knowing that Kopitar used that deke and went to the backhand last time abusing and highlight reeling Brodeur the time before... switching it up on Brodeur this time by going to the forehand.

Watching Brodeur do that Scorpion Kick with his right leg elevated and Kopitar figuring out to shoot it underneath his raised pad was amazing. The no look pass from Williams was like a sixth sense. Doughty following up the play and chipping that out after it was poked from Brownie, to get the puck out.

I was so amped by all of this, I didn't sleep until about 2 am after that game.

I'll never forget that move and this game for as long as I live.

Great moment captured, KingsVision. Thanks for allowing us to revisit this.
 
I was in my last quarter of College, sitting in my last evening class and luckily we had computers in that class. I had the game up but had to minimize the game as the professor walked by. When I maximized it a couple minutes later I saw the huge scrum and couldn't believe it. Ahh what a great move by Kopi. Still my favorite goal from the S.C. playoffs.
