Ovi's crazy goal in his rookie year (we've all seen it too many times) has to be the choice for the Caps. Sure it was in the regular season, but it certainly signified the beast that had been unleashed onto the hockey world.
I know it wouldn't hold up in terms of significance, but Bure's kick pass to his blade breakaway deke against Boston would still be highlight of the night today
For the Penguins, I'd have thought it would have been the Mario Lemieux goal that broke the Cinderella Story of the Minnesota North Stars when he single handedly deked out the entire team and scored a goal described by Cole with the iconic call "Oh my goodness, look at Lemieux! What a goal! What a Move! Lemieux! OH BABY!"
How can you not mention the fact that Barilko's goal without mentioning the Tragically Hip... And as a Canucks fan, there is no way that Bieksa's goal is more memorable than Burrows "slaying the dragon".
110% agreed on both calls! The Dragon Slaying Goal was THE #1 goal of the franchise and earned him the spot in the Ring of honour to forever be remembered as the dragon slayer.
I was at the Yzerman goal game. I spent $1000 for me and three friends. My wife was pissed but none of us had seen Gretzky play live. Yzerman was right in front of us. No more than 30 feet. I still feel as I did that night that Gretzky coughed up the puck. I met him at a charity event about ten years ago in LA and asked him about it. He said that he did. Class act.
i disagree with the sharks & lighning, Barclay Goodrow winning game 7 vs vegas in 2019 in OT, after a 4 goal comeback in the final 10 minutes. the lightning would be Stamkos Goal in his only shift in the 2020 Stanley Cup Final against the Dallas Stars. love the vid, keep it up! Subscribed!
Life long Calgary Flames fan here. Fleury's goal in that Edmonton series? Yeah. Not most memorable. Perry Berezan's goal in Game 7 of the 1986 Smythe Division Final has that honor. Of course, Berezan was on the bench when the goal was scored. Edmonton's Steve Smith banked the puck off Grant Fuhr's skate and in the net. It won the game, and series, for Calgary. Then there's also ANY of Martian "The Eliminator" Gelinas' goals during the 2004 playoffs.
Yeah, I was going to say that the Steve Smith Own goal was Calgary's most famous goal. For Flames fans, its the double whammy of success against the Oilers, while also a complete embarrassment by the Oilers.
What about Jim Peplinki's OT thriller vs the Canucks in 1989 that up the Flames one and only Stanly Cup win? You'd think a goal that got them out of a first round upset and make their only Stanly Cup possible would be at least up there, or maybe Lanny McDonald's Last Goal in the Cup winning game? What a way to end a long and storied career? Scoring a big goal and winning your first Stanly Cup in your Last Game!
With all due respect, the shot that Stevie Y took in the '96 playoffs that sent the Blues golfing was OUT OF THIS WORLD. You make good content, but calling that a harmless shot,🤣🤣🤣come on, man! Yzerman used 6'3'' Murray Baron standing there with his legs closed blocking the view of his goalie to veil the shot, like a ninja using darkness. John Casey didn't see the puck go, he didn't see moment the puck left Yzerman's stick, so not only the angle was crazy sick but Yzerman put the 5 elements of a perfect slapshot into that puck; power, velocity, precision, speed and heart. With a veil, it's straight up a 5-head laser. No goalie in the NHL then and now would have stopped it. We'll never see a goal like that again because it was a one in a million shot. The context of the rivalry and the double OT elimination goal, the circumstances of the mere puck turn over and the positioning of the players involved in the Yzerman's play, the perfect timing and execution just BANG.. a laser like you have never seen before. Simply out of this world.
Fun fact about the Boston Bruins and the Bobby Orr goal. In the 1990 (or might have 1988) playoffs, Craig Janney scored an almost frame for frame perfect reenactment of the Bobby Orr goal. Janney received a pass from the corner while coming out towards the net off the boards, put it home then got tripped up as he shot and went flying through the air just like Bobby Orr did. Nobody seems to remember about that goal, but you'd think EVERYONE would know about it, because of how uncanny it was that nearly 2 decades later, another Bruin would score an almost identical goal in the playoffs, especially with how iconic and improbable the Bobby Orr goal was. Yet just try to look up the Craig Janney rendition and you'll find it's been all but whipped from existence. Shameful given how bizarre a repeat of that goal actually was.
While Pat Maroon's goal was important, the Blues had been to the conference finals before. Gunnarson's ot goal in game 2 of the finals was new territory for the Blues, first win in the finals after being 0-13 prior to that.
Maybe not a goal, but the most memorable shot for the Senators in 2007 was in the SCF game 4 when Alfredson blasted a slap shot at Scott Niedermayer at center ice
Before the game Karlsson was warming up doing the between the leg shots. I turned to my wife and said, "Why would he even practice that during warm ups? He'll never do something like that in a game. He should focus on something he'll actually do in game." It is one of my wife's favorite examples of how I am always wrong.
Uhhhh The Blues were definitely NOT favored in their match up with Detroit in 96. The Wings set the NHL record for wins that year with 62. The Wings were heavily favored dude
The pens have had many different ones they could have used, mario Lemieuxs return from retirement goal, crosby return of injury goal back in 2012, the bonino goal, Talbot's heroics game 7 2009
One call by retired commentator Cole says it all "Oh my goodness, look at Lemieux! What a goal! What a Move! Lemieux! OH BABY!" I think you know the goal I'm talking about...
@@Seriously_Unserious How that was not 'the goal' for the pens is astonishing. The next year Jagr scored a beautiful goal skating around 5 Blackhawks in Game 2...another more memorable goal than Kunitz
@@bo-rale584 or the one where Lemieux gave Ray Bourque the old How's She Going and actually fooled the Bruin's Captain and best all round defenseman in the league. Thanks to guys like Mario, Crosby, and Jagr, the Pens have plenty of candidate goals for that.
I guess not. That was a memorable goal for Stevie Y, but I better remember Fedorov skating to beat all hell to break up a 2-on-1 breakaway with Gretzky and Hull by poke checking the puck away from Gretz in that same OT.
@@HelloMattMat - I seem to remember something similar. :-) Keenan did trade the farm at the trade deadline to get Gretzky, which gave him one good run at the Cup. Gretz said there was no way he’d play for Keenan after that season and kept his word. I don’t know if the Blues were “heavy favorites”, but none of my friends were overconfident in that matchup given the Wings past playoff performance in 96. (95 was the first they went deep since 88 and past the 1st round since 92.) But you’re right, “heavy favorites” was an overstatement.
@@HelloMattMat - I guess my memory was flawed, as it was the closing minutes of the 3rd Period. Also note who closed down Hull after intercepting Fedorov’s clearing pass. ua-cam.com/users/clipUgkxXgN4HXbv298lfdbvQ_hKjvNvsuF4JYit?si=g4ACfCTrw872jnlM
For the Rangers I would have chosen Martin St Louis' goal against the Penguins in 2014 (he had just lost his mother prior to that game, which I believe was around Mothers' Day, but I could be wrong). However, since St Louis was chosen for Tampa Bay, I think the rule of each player appearing once would apply. For the current Winnipeg Jets (formerly known as the Atlanta Thrashers), I would probably choose Kyle Connor's goal in Game 4 of the Jets' first round series against Edmonton that completed a sweep. The Jets would then have their own brooms used on them by Montreal the following round.
There are 15 face-off spots on an NHL rink. 5 in each zone. As the offside / icing rules have been adjusted over the years, so have where face-offs have been contested
There were in a sense, as the Avalanche are the same team, just with a new name and a new home. I don't get UA-camrs and their weird obsession with acting like moved and renamed teams are NEW teams and the team that team under their old name just stopped existing. The Calgary Flames are the same team that started out as the Atlanta Flames. The Phoenix Coyotes are ALSO the Winnipeg Jets 1.0. The Winnipeg Jets 2.0 are NOT the Winnipeg Jets 1.0, but the relocated Atlanta Thrashers (different teams, meaning greats like Dale Howerchuck and Phil Housley NEVER played for the Jets 2.0, but the Jets 1.0/Coyotes). The Colorado Avalanche are the Quebec Nordiques. The New Jersey Devlis are the Colorado Rockies relocated, and the Carolina Hurricanes are the former Hartford Whalers. The team is the team not the city. The Colorado Rockies are NOT the Colorado Avalanche. They're completely different teams that BOTH STILL exist just in different cities now, under different names. Time to stop conflating different teams in the same location with each other and relocated/renamed teams with being different and ignoring their past.
Clearly the author know nothing about the Habs... Lemaire's goal in OT against Boston, amongst many other more important goals, was by far the most important goal in the franchise's history!
Henri Richard's 2 goals against Chicago in game 7 in 1973 are far more memorable than any goal Desjardins scored as well and were considered by Sam Pollock as the biggest goals in Montreal's history
99 NO GOAL The thing is, it may seem silly now but for the whole playoffs goals like that were called off because that's how stingey they were about being in the blue paint. The rule at that time should of had Hull take his skate out of the blue paint before shooting. The teams didn't have ipads on the bench in order to see like they do nowadays. oh well tis history.
Clickbait thumbnail Even if it was called correctly it would have never had been a penalty, just a disallowed goal. The other thing I didn't agree with was that they gave the Conn Smythe to Joe Newanddike, It could of easily been handed out to Hasek or Belfour.
Lol the blues were the favorites in 96?? Lmao I mean sure I guess .. if ya overlook the whole Detroit setting a only recently broken record for wins in a season that year . But yeah they did have a on his last leg Wayne playing for them ..
Gotta ask. The Blackhawks have been around since the 1600's and in all that time Patrick Kane is the most memorable? No Stan Mikita, Bobby Hull uh Jeremy Roenick?
Mikita and Hull combined for over 1100 goals................but can you recall any of them? (and unfortunately most if them came before cameras were at every arena recording goals)
Primeau? Yeah, nobody outside of Philadelphia remembers that goal. There are 2 goals that Flyers fans should never be allowed to be forget. Pat Kane in 2010 Darren McCarty in 97
Duane Sutter - 1980 (it was offside!) If that goal gets called back as it should have been, there is no Nystrom goal in OT and Flyers go home for Game 7!
"We all remember Paul Kariya's goal..."
Well...all of us except for Paul Kariya.

Especially the Gary Thorne call...
Ovi's crazy goal in his rookie year (we've all seen it too many times) has to be the choice for the Caps. Sure it was in the regular season, but it certainly signified the beast that had been unleashed onto the hockey world.
I think the most memorable Canucks Goal was Burrows Slaying the dragon.
came here to say that - Bieksa's was great, but Burrows made people weep.
We don’t talk about that
@@ironchair131 i'm going to go watch it again just to relive it.
Or Bure Game 7 vs the Flames.
I know it wouldn't hold up in terms of significance, but Bure's kick pass to his blade breakaway deke against Boston would still be highlight of the night today
Most memorable Penguins goal was Lemieux’s goal vs the North Stars
one of the most obvious choices, and this guy whiffed on it. it's not close.
Fully agree. Mario's goal is one of the most iconic in the sports history let alone just the Pens
Went to comment the same
That's the one that comes to mind for me.
For the Penguins, I'd have thought it would have been the Mario Lemieux goal that broke the Cinderella Story of the Minnesota North Stars when he single handedly deked out the entire team and scored a goal described by Cole with the iconic call "Oh my goodness, look at Lemieux!

You're Absolutely right. I was shocked to see kunitz on here
How can you not mention the fact that Barilko's goal without mentioning the Tragically Hip...
And as a Canucks fan, there is no way that Bieksa's goal is more memorable than Burrows "slaying the dragon".
110% agreed on both calls! The Dragon Slaying Goal was THE #1 goal of the franchise and earned him the spot in the Ring of honour to forever be remembered as the dragon slayer.
Understand the LA pick for Martinez. Gretzky's 802nd goal to surpass Howe as the all time leader was pretty memorable too.
Daryl Evans goal to eliminate Edmonton in the early 80s is probably more memorable than either of them
I would have gone with Lanny’s last goal 1989 finals game 6 for the Flames
Canucks fan here and I totally agree.
Scored just seconds after stepping out of the penalty box.
I was at the Yzerman goal game. I spent $1000 for me and three friends. My wife was pissed but none of us had seen Gretzky play live. Yzerman was right in front of us. No more than 30 feet.

Cause the Krupp goal won them the cup! Nothing will ever top a Stanley cup winning goal.
@@Totallyhotbabe34nobody remembers the goal that brought the cup to Capitals but everyone remembers The Goal by Ovi against Coyotes
@@YouriBezugly because Ovi didn’t score a OT Stanley cup winning goal
Kariya was out cold, went to the room and snorted an 8ball, then came out storming to crank the goal
As great as the May Day goal was, my favorite Sabres goal is Pominville, "These guys are good, scary good".
While Ducks fans may remember that goal Kariya scored, Paul himself doesn’t.
Maybe not a goal, but the most memorable shot for the Senators in 2007 was in the SCF game 4 when Alfredson blasted a slap shot at Scott Niedermayer at center ice

As a shirt fan, I would argue. Nolan‘s called shot at the All-Star game was more memorable. That said this is quite memorable as well.
Andrew Brunette’s (Wild-Avalanche) goal was scored on the great Patrick Roy. It was the last game Roy played in his storied career.

Ora’s goal was on Mother’s Day May 10, 1970

Grant Fuhr had problems with long distance shots, many goals scored on him from the neutral zone
So that Fleury slide would show up in NHL 2002 as a goal celebration you could use in game... Just not as wild
