as it has always been. i loved the segment with the 2 but i think i watched with anticipation that cherry would eventually lay a beating on maclean for all of canada to see. maclean is the prime example of what it means to be a canadian these days - weak, docile and easily managed. the type that even a beta male himself would be embarrassed by.
3:25, good lord what a two hander by Murray Craven! Today, that would be talked about for couple days on sports radio, and all the hosts would try to top each other over how outraged they could be.
The 1988 and 1989 Habs had great teams. ‘88 they couldn’t beat Boston and that was the Bruins first win over Montreal in the playoffs in I think 40 plus years. In ‘89 well they made it to the Final but lost to an equally strong Flames team. I remember that Cup Final like yesterday. I was 17 and they were the two best teams in the league. That ‘89 team was arguably one of the strongest Habs teams that I remember in my lifetime.
The infamous pre-game brawl from their Wales Conference final series. I loved that ‘87 Habs team. They had a bit of everything. Scoring, skill, speed, toughness, some fighters and leadership. I wanted them to beat Philadelphia so bad but they got their revenge in the ‘89 Wales Final.
i hated canadien`s broadcasts because that second rate color commentator (dick irvin) would often make me comatose from his endlessly boring anecdotes. i`d watch RDS in french even though i can not speak a word of the language.

Flyers put too much energy into building goof teams, which probably cost them a cup or two in the 80’s. Sure they made the Finals twice, but costly penalties and bad coaching decisions by Keenan were their undoing.
Nope. Injuries cost them; if Tim Kerr had played in either ‘85 or ‘87 finals they’d have won at least one. They also missed Brad McCrimmon in the ‘85 finals. You’re right about Keenan, though. His act grew old fast everywhere and he flamed out. Ticks me off he went to the Rangers for one year and won.
@@neilm2794 I had forgotten about big Tim Kerr! You’re right, he was a force: even a superstar with a Cup under his belt if he didn’t have so many injuries.
@@ALLANBINSLEY What don't you like about him? My dad hated him. Thought he sounded like an idiot, and I agreed at the time lol. I think now I just appreciate his voice for the nostalgia
Miss those times! Good ol' hockey! Born and raised in Montreal I was 9 back then and loved my Habs!!
What a game ! Who says fighting, scoring and tie games weren't exciting 🙄
13 year old me was probably watching this one…great late 80’s rivalry here
Late 80’s and 90’s will never be equalled for toughness and talent-never
Miss Don !! Ron is a snake
100% Agree

Great hockey to watch not like today's boring games,not worth watching now.
Always terrific at the forum ...love the music between plays ...very Canadian experience ❤
Playoff games couldn't hear the P.A. Announcer. So loud.
Claude Lemieux and Chris Nylan in the same line is gold !
Both of these teams , with the rosters they had, should've won a couple of Cups. Easily 2 of the best of the Wales conference during the late 80's
Montréal did wn two ; 1986 and 93.

Almost totally different roster in 93 compared to 86-88. Only Roy and carbonneau were around in 93
Dave Brown with the goal on Roy
Montreal, best crowd! Love my Habs! Saw many great games at the Forum!
"Or start one." How, so true.
Haven’t seen this kinda hockey in years, I just don’t watch hockey anymore.😢
Big Dave Brown, #21, 👍👍

This was the continuation brutally from the NHL 1987 semi finals in round 3

End of the 2nd, Chelios was so worried about the guy behind him, he gave up the puck behind the net, leading to a Flyers goal.
The good ol days. Remeber this game.
Great hockey them days especially in the Chuck Norris division😂
Huge fan of Nilan but has he ever won a fight?
Since 1993 the hockey is dead in Montreal..., I didn't watch a game since!
How do you know it's dead?
@@danieldubeau2944 No Stanley cup since..., do you need a draw?
Those were the days.Mary Hopkin.

Yea albeit a legend in his calls at broadcasting,, he saw differently calling habs game even Neale would correct him lol 2Leafs
@@jimwest9313 I laugh when they said he was the voice of Hockey Night in Canada. He was the voice off Hockey Night in Toronto, doing the Loafs games.
Couple bad goals allowed by Roy or they would have won.
80’s goaltending 😂
That’s why Hayward became the Habs starting goalie in the 88 playoffs
Hayward ended up playing the majority of the playoffs in ‘87. Roy just didn’t look good like he did in ‘86.
Nilan never was too bright
Hard to believe how good the Canadians were. They’ve been horrible for 20 years
Great times
THEY SAY A TIE 👔 IS LIKE KISSING YOUR SISTER 😅
Ничего не понимаю. Откуда овертайм в 88 году и это регулярный чемпионат?
I looked it up. seems like in 1983 is when the regular season overtime started. However, if they played the full OT with no score would produce a tie.
