As a Kings fan, that entire 2014 run was amazing to watch. But at the end of it all, I felt sorry for Hank, and still do. He deserved to win a cup in his career. But the Kings weren't losing that year.
the rosters for the hawks in the 2011-2012, 2012-2013, 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 seasons were all so similar to each other man its insane especially in a cap world. Ofc people are gonna say cap circumvention for the 2015 cup but still impressive the similarities between 4 seasons. Same goes for the Kings in 2011-2012, 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 campaigns. 2013 and 2014 were almsot identical to 2012 and cause of that they were able to keep the needle moving within that timespan
Not only is this Kings Cup run one of the best in NHL history, but this entire 2013-14 playoffs are to this day unmatched, every series with Kings and Rangers involved were crazy, but we also got insane series between Bruins and Habs, Avs and the Wild, Hawks and the Blues, Ducks and the Stars and Hawks and the Wild in round 2 and add to all that an unbelievable 27 OT games in those playoffs, which could be a record.
that reverse sweep the kings did against the sharks in round one was just unreal and then recovering from a 3-2 deficit in round 2 against Anaheim was stunning!!
the only one i rank higher- is my dallas stars in 99' i was only 9 myself- best player on the team mike modano also #9. alot of 9s running about that year. cutting the bias Martinez has the best goal since fucking Orr
This made me teary eyed... Thank you for letting me relive this! 2014 for me was during college.. The only way I was able to watch the playoff games was going to local restaurants and ordering the cheapest thing on the menu. I had some of the best memories sipping my $3 ice tea and watching history play out.
I was at Kingsfest the year they ended up making it to the Finals and winning it. This was like the summer before the season started. I met Quick, Doughty, tons of others. Awesome experience. I said to myself, man, this team has potential and I rooted for them in the playoffs after my Panthers were heart broken by the Devils. What was so interesting is the two cup runs were so so different. One was a destructive road where they just manhandled every team and the year you are covering was game 7 and comebacks and OTs like crazy. The difference between both roads to the cup is honestly unreal.
As a Kings fan you're spot on. The series is often talked of as being a 'foregone conclusion' after the amazing series vs the 'Hawks. However, this whole series was a freaking nailbiter. GG WP.
Agreed. As a kings fan, If it wasn’t the kings in the final I would’ve totally went for the rangers. Looking back at it, it hurt to see Hank’s look after that goal. I really wished that he had another chance to win the cup. Absolute legend!

@@cjvastro. how was he not the same when he won the hart, ted lindsay, vezina and jennings the very next year? Then basically brought them to the final in 2021 single handedly? The knee injury from the 2021 final was the one that led to his falloff. It sucks he got hurt with krieder running into him but saying he was never the same immediately after is pretty ridiculous given what he did the very next year like i said
Brutal to watch as a Rangers fan. That series was much closer than it looked. However, NY massively overachieved to get there and were out of their weight class. Much like this year with Florida. The Rangers put too much stock in goaltending and it leaves them lacking. Maybe next year tho….
Goaltending power play and panarin…and when Florida shuts down the power play and panarin the goaltending can only get you so far. To win next year zibenajed and Krieder have to be 5 on 5 players and can’t just wait for tip ins and one timers or else they’re practically useless
The Kreider breakaway on Price effectively ended Price's career. Going in feet first was intentional. And for that, it would be fitting if Kreider never gets to lift the Cup.Oh, and I'm a life long Leafs fan and loathe the Canadiens........
You could argue they are unlucky. Having that elite goaltending has put them in a situation where they over pay and rely too heavily on the position thus leaving them short elsewhere and never getting a cup.
@@Skynexstar he signed a 11+ million dollar deal that season that took up 1/3 of the teams cap space. Also, the point still stands that NY is over reliant on goaltending
The 2014 LAK-CHI series is probably the best hockey I've ever seen, and thats coming from someone who was rooting for the blackhawks. Incredible hockey. Intensity, ferocity, sense of urgency - everything was at the highest level. What a series that was.
@@billymays7210 hawk fans say the same thing ab 2014 lol. Just shows that sometimes its luck that comes to a team. I always say in the first round in 2019 in game 7 between the caps and canes that if my caps had won game 7 instead of the canes then they easily would've went to at least the conference finals against the bruins. Ofc it's hard to defend a title and we prolly wouldn't have beaten boston but we definitely would've put up a tougher more entertaining fight against them unlike the canes since we had almost the exact same team from the cup year the year prior still intact. The caps would've prolly swept the islanders in round 2 like the canes did and would've taken the third round to at least 6 games win or lose unlike the canes who ofc got swept in round 3 by the bruins.
Honesty 2010s deep dive would be incredible. The Chicago dynasty, LA's two unlikely cup wins, Vancouver riots in 2011, Crosby's back-to-back cup wins, San Jose never quite making it, the Capitals going nowhere until the magical run of 2018, St. Louis's incredible bounceback in 2019... A lot of interesting things happened during that time period.
I don’t even have to watch to know how good of a video this is. Awesome video, love your videos man. Also will say as someone who has Ranger fan friends, I’ll make sure to send this out to them so they see it 😃😃😃

As always keep up the work always tell my Vietnamese friends to head here to learn a bit of the game and history.
As a kings fan, their 2014 playoff run was one of the most magical things I’ve witnessed in my time watching hockey. Have a lot of respect for Sutter & what he did with that team.
I gave the thumbs up. That said, I kinda feel like these rewinds end abruptly. But hey, it's your channel. Side note: as a lifetime Blackhawks fan, wasn't that the conf final, game 7, overtime that LA won when it went in off the D'ender's knob? Or I got the wrong year. My favorite stories in hockey are the "random chance beats skill again." Please keep it coming, whatever you can put together. The dog weeks are in full swing.
Its so funny to hear analysis by people who arent fans of the teams involved. As a Rangers fan I remember Game 2 being given away by the referees but no mention of it in the whole video. Looking back after, and being there watching every minute is a huge difference.
As a long time Rangers guy... That was painful. The planets had aligned in an uncanny way. Martin St. Louis had been (and still is) my favorite player for years and for 'my' team to acquire him and then go on a potential Cup run... it was like a dream. But frankly, I knew the Kings had the edge heading into the Cup Final and none of what happened surprised me. The OT games could've indeed gone either way and one of the games basically went the Kings' way because of a thoroughly brain-dead penalty call off a knee on knee collision that wasn't either player's fault. Either way, it was an expected outcome, but it still sucked. :D
This was probably the toughest series lost I ever saw, especially knowing the rangers have not got back since. 2015 to the lightning is also up there, even more so when i went to the garden for game 7. After that the team completely fell apart, and it took until 2022 for the rangers to get back to a team that could compete again. (also, hank and carey price both deserved cups)
This cup was amazing to watch, I had seen a lot of the kings team in the AHL with the Monarchs. I even have a Martinez bobblehead from after the cup win
This video highlights all that it takes even to get to the Stanley cup final, let alone winning it. We should give more attention and respect to the finalists who lose. They have the second best team in the league every year and that’s something special too.
tough watch as a Rangers fan but a really well done video...up until that Finals series, that run was the most fun I ever had as a fan and have a lot of great memories watching that with my brother....I saw them win the cup in '94 but I was only 8 or so and as much as I loved hockey as a kid, I didnt really become a die-hard fan until around 2008....Lundqvist deserved better in his career than what the Rangers were able to give him, but some things are just not meant to be....
Awesome video 👏 sorry this looks like a bot comment, just wanted to show my respects. I’m a Canucks fan but I love the work you put into your videos, makes them all enjoyable to watch
As long as our top guys show up in playoffs we can do it. But when zibenajed and Panarin just stop scoring it’s really hard. You know it’s bad when Barclay Goodrow scored more goals than any ranger in this series than he did in the entire regular season
Im a dallas stars fan and this was the most excited I ever got for a non-stars game winner. martinez' iconic goal will haunt newyork forever- and as someone from dallas we are contractually obligated too cheer against new york and see their downfall. it twas a good year. ( also slightly sillier reason when the nhl games added be a pro mode- LA was the team that drafted my pro.)
As a Sharks fan I'm still mad about these playoffs, the Kings were my most hated team until 2018. Now it's ok, this run was epic and LA has won without cheating, not like another stupid new team who had pay to get success, my hate is on them now.
You should do the Patrick Maroon goal against the Dallas Stars in the 2019 Western Conference semi-final. As a Dallas Stars fan, I still get nightmares of that goal in my sleep sometimes.
watching these throwback videos is like watching bootleg Rewinder videos from SB. the structure is so, so similar, especially the way you end the video lol. these are still good though hah
This was probably the most heartbreaking rangers loss for me. It’s either this or game 7 vs tampa which i saw in person. Also, why did i get this and the usa canada olympics game recommended? Those were the most painful losses i ever saw.
Goosebumps this entire video my man. As a massive Kings fan I really appreciate the credit you give them. That was the best year of my life. And them winning that cup meant everything to me. I miss that roster a lot.
The last few goals scored by both teams in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals all had very weird hops off the ice to get past each goalie. They weren't exactly soft goals. Even Martinez's GWG was a weird change up.
The 2014 Series between the Kings and Rangers culminated in one of *my* favorite Stanley Cup final moments ever. Alec "Jazz Hands" Martinez scoring that goal. Why do I say Jazz Hands? Because that's what he did lmao
I really don't think the 2014 Rangers were ever all that, they had no excuses for taking all 7 games to beat the Flyers in Round 1, who should not have been in the playoffs in the first place, the signs were there that they were not going to beat the Kings or Hawks (who were only kept from the finals because the officials allowed the Kings to score offside in Game 7 despite all the technology available to the NHL to prevent that years before 2014)... Kings narrative is also absurd aside from the offside WCF goal, especially since 2012 SCF Game 6 featured an undeniably large amount of help from the officials, Rob Scuderi turned his back to Steve Bernier at the very last moment & somehow Bernier was given a major which almost never happened in the SCF when actually deserved, while the officials just a few seconds before ignored Stephen Gionta getting targeted by Jarrett Stoll the entire way & boarded at center ice, then they allowed Dustin Penner to punch Anton Volchenkov with no call before the Devils touched the puck to start the 5 minute major penalty kill
King Henrik looking despondent at the rafters is one of the saddest sights in hockey history especially knowing he would never get there again.
another notable one is Roloson after Tampa lost to Boston in 2011 ECF game 7. Old vet playing out of his mind who knew it was his last chance
To be a King you need to win the cup. Great day in LA Kings history.

Side note: as a lifetime Blackhawks fan, wasn't that the conf final, game 7, overtime that LA won when it went in off the D'ender's knob? Or I got the wrong year. My favorite stories in hockey are the "random chance beats skill again." Please keep it coming, whatever you can put together. The dog weeks are in full swing.
as a rangers fan, yeah I shed a tear watching this.
A goal that gives me goosebumps every time.
Its so funny to hear analysis by people who arent fans of the teams involved. As a Rangers fan I remember Game 2 being given away by the referees but no mention of it in the whole video. Looking back after, and being there watching every minute is a huge difference.
As a long time Rangers guy... That was painful. The planets had aligned in an uncanny way. Martin St. Louis had been (and still is) my favorite player for years and for 'my' team to acquire him and then go on a potential Cup run... it was like a dream.
But frankly, I knew the Kings had the edge heading into the Cup Final and none of what happened surprised me. The OT games could've indeed gone either way and one of the games basically went the Kings' way because of a thoroughly brain-dead penalty call off a knee on knee collision that wasn't either player's fault. Either way, it was an expected outcome, but it still sucked. :D
This was probably the toughest series lost I ever saw, especially knowing the rangers have not got back since. 2015 to the lightning is also up there, even more so when i went to the garden for game 7. After that the team completely fell apart, and it took until 2022 for the rangers to get back to a team that could compete again.
(also, hank and carey price both deserved cups)
Montreal would have won that cup if not for price getting injured. He was on a different level
I was there for game 5 and the 2OTs. Best game I’ve ever seen in person and went home exhausted and happy
This cup was amazing to watch, I had seen a lot of the kings team in the AHL with the Monarchs. I even have a Martinez bobblehead from after the cup win
amazing video, and thanks for ruining my day - signed, a rangers fan
dang.... look at the goaltending on both sides of that cup run. some of the best goalies of all time playing that year
This video highlights all that it takes even to get to the Stanley cup final, let alone winning it. We should give more attention and respect to the finalists who lose. They have the second best team in the league every year and that’s something special too.
Habs should have been in that final
What a great video
tough watch as a Rangers fan but a really well done video...up until that Finals series, that run was the most fun I ever had as a fan and have a lot of great memories watching that with my brother....I saw them win the cup in '94 but I was only 8 or so and as much as I loved hockey as a kid, I didnt really become a die-hard fan until around 2008....Lundqvist deserved better in his career than what the Rangers were able to give him, but some things are just not meant to be....
god it still hurts so much
Awesome video 👏 sorry this looks like a bot comment, just wanted to show my respects. I’m a Canucks fan but I love the work you put into your videos, makes them all enjoyable to watch
why must u bring up this deep seeded PTSD until the rangers win a cup ill never forget 2014 😂
As long as our top guys show up in playoffs we can do it. But when zibenajed and Panarin just stop scoring it’s really hard. You know it’s bad when Barclay Goodrow scored more goals than any ranger in this series than he did in the entire regular season
This is copy paste from the channel secret base but I love it. Great video and I hope you do more of these
Im a dallas stars fan and this was the most excited I ever got for a non-stars game winner. martinez' iconic goal will haunt newyork forever- and as someone from dallas we are contractually obligated too cheer against new york and see their downfall. it twas a good year. ( also slightly sillier reason when the nhl games added be a pro mode- LA was the team that drafted my pro.)
As a Sharks fan I'm still mad about these playoffs, the Kings were my most hated team until 2018. Now it's ok, this run was epic and LA has won without cheating, not like another stupid new team who had pay to get success, my hate is on them now.
You should do the Patrick Maroon goal against the Dallas Stars in the 2019 Western Conference semi-final. As a Dallas Stars fan, I still get nightmares of that goal in my sleep sometimes.
9:56 my 10 year old self thought this puck went in… all the joy I had at that moment went dark in seconds
watching these throwback videos is like watching bootleg Rewinder videos from SB. the structure is so, so similar, especially the way you end the video lol. these are still good though hah
I remember watching this series. It was spicy 🔥
As a Rangers fan, a really feel this
This was probably the most heartbreaking rangers loss for me. It’s either this or game 7 vs tampa which i saw in person.
Also, why did i get this and the usa canada olympics game recommended? Those were the most painful losses i ever saw.
Goosebumps this entire video my man.
As a massive Kings fan I really appreciate the credit you give them. That was the best year of my life. And them winning that cup meant everything to me. I miss that roster a lot.
The last few goals scored by both teams in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals all had very weird hops off the ice to get past each goalie. They weren't exactly soft goals. Even Martinez's GWG was a weird change up.
Do more of these but make them longer, take a look at the kings perspective of the playoffs
Surprised that the rags didn’t send kreider into Quick next
Seeing Lundqvist face first on the ice while the Kings celebrate, gotta be the greatest pic of all time.
*worst
Are you gonna do a video on the Oilers 2024 playoff PK? That would be so interesting to me.
The 2014 Series between the Kings and Rangers culminated in one of *my* favorite Stanley Cup final moments ever. Alec "Jazz Hands" Martinez scoring that goal. Why do I say Jazz Hands? Because that's what he did lmao
NYR didn't deserve the cup in that season. The final was already more than they deserved..
the kings were just that deep of a team too given they had nearly the exact same roster as they did 2 years prior
Great watch 👍
I really don't think the 2014 Rangers were ever all that, they had no excuses for taking all 7 games to beat the Flyers in Round 1, who should not have been in the playoffs in the first place, the signs were there that they were not going to beat the Kings or Hawks (who were only kept from the finals because the officials allowed the Kings to score offside in Game 7 despite all the technology available to the NHL to prevent that years before 2014)...
Kings narrative is also absurd aside from the offside WCF goal, especially since 2012 SCF Game 6 featured an undeniably large amount of help from the officials, Rob Scuderi turned his back to Steve Bernier at the very last moment & somehow Bernier was given a major which almost never happened in the SCF when actually deserved, while the officials just a few seconds before ignored Stephen Gionta getting targeted by Jarrett Stoll the entire way & boarded at center ice, then they allowed Dustin Penner to punch Anton Volchenkov with no call before the Devils touched the puck to start the 5 minute major penalty kill
Quick, Price, Lundqvist and Fleury all in their prime, I feel sorry for those forwards...
