Anyone who says Vernon doesn't belong in the Hall of Fame because "he was never the best player at his position" (which is a ridiculous argument in the first place) needs to watch that game (and the whole playoff run).

I've always said he should have won the Conn Smythe. He was the reason we got past the Canucks in the first rounds. Saves against Skriko and Smyl in OT of game 7.

Vernon was great but MacInnis was other-worldly that run. He led the league in playoff scoring as a dman! Bottom line is you need great performances from multiple guys to win a Cup. Rarely can one guy carry a team to the end.

Even though they're talking while watching the game, I don't think it's absolutely necessary to be watching along with them (although, it would be good if you can).

Nice! I missed this last night, so will be checking this out for sure. I'm in the states so have not been able to see any of the games. I know that Game 6 has been on YT forever but have never been able to see games 1-5 in their entirety. How has the quality been on them? Did Sportsnet sharpen them up at all? Between this and the Canada Cup being shown on TSN, it's tough being a hockey fan and not being able to watch those.

Agreed-helps to watch the game along with them, but funny nevertheless. Love seeing that they joke about each other just like my beer-league teammates do.
I also really appreciated how Brendan Parker hosted. He just let them go. Lanny, Nattress and Macoun don’t need encouragement to talk, that’s for sure!
I’m not sure if people born into the tech-communications-era will ever understand how surreal it is for people of my generation to be able to engage with athletes/musicians/etc in this manner. This kind of thing would’ve been unthinkable when I was a kid. It’s simply fantastic to be able to gain these insights, and to have these guys be such willing participants.
