The penultimate "Oilers are no good" moment. Up 5-0, going into the 3rd period of that final game.
The Miracle on Manchseter ensued...Kings scoring 5, including (watch Gretzky not clear it will 11 seconds to go), and then win it in OT, 6-5 final.
Charlie Simmer, Steve Bozek, Kevin Lowe, and some great early 80's fashions also make an apperance.
Back to the Flames/Canucks 1989...Bob Cole, at his finest in this highlight package.
Perfect excitement and drama added by his voice...his calls of Vernon's saves, (Skriko was the toughest) and Mullen's miss are forever etched. Worth the 6:35 watch.
