That penalty shot save...ratonmono wrote: Fri Mar 20, 2020 4:59 pmYeah they were on espn a decent amount and that cup run was incredible. That was when my fandom was cemented honestly. I was more of an nba kid before that run. Prime Bure vs prime Richter. Didn’t get much better than that. And yeah Leetch was just one of the smoothest skaters, and had such a great head for the game.Dave's a mess wrote: Fri Mar 20, 2020 4:25 pmYou know Brian Leetch may be my best personal example of an all-time great I didn't really appreciate in his time. He obviously put up gaudy numbers and doesn't have any free space in his trophy case, but being in the Eastern Conference in the pre-Center Ice/NHL.tv days, I didn't see a ton of him. A couple of years ago however, I caught a replay of the 1996 World Cup of Hockey Final between the US and Canada. It was absurd how effortlessly he could just cruise the puck from behind his own net, through the neutral zone and into other team's end. Rules were different and all that, but I feel like he'd just absolutely dominate today.ratonmono wrote: Fri Mar 20, 2020 2:05 pm Congrats to the kid! I used to like the Rangers back in the Leetch/Messier/Graves/Richter 94 era.
