Read about it here.
Fitting that it ended with Mr. Rent a Player just missing. To be really fitting, he should have hit the post.
Here's a couple of things we learned:
1) While it sounds nice, hitting the post is no more effective than completely missing it.
2) If you don't clear the zone, and especially if you pass it to the other team in your defensive zone, they are more likely to score.
3) If you get multiple 5 on 3 power plays, and don't score on ANY of them, you aren't going to win a series.
Still, there will always be the triple overtime thriller.
Here's hoping it isn't another 16 years.
