The red mile of 2004 didn't really become big until the night of Gelinas' OT goal to eliminate the Red Wings.
A couple of other factors will work against a Red Mile repeat. I recall CPS making it very clear things were not going to be the same when the 2006 playoffs were beginning. Thanks to Vancouver fans, I think the police will be more vigilant and less tolerant. I also doubt women will be flashing their breasts when everyone is carrying a smartphone in 2015.
