And RandomDad I do think it gets talked about more than you think. It could be the most famous save in Canadian hockey history.
The play that I think never gets talked about is Lemieux's miss on the wide open net, where he held his arms in the air in frustration after. If we lose that game, that specific moment would have defined his career. Not unlike Gretzky sitting on the bench looking dejected in '98 when for some reason I believe Ray Bourque was a shooter and the greatest player of all time was not.

Well I seem to have missed most of the talk then. I just think it should get as much talk as the Sakic goals and Iginlas goal.
