I'm a little young for the games in the '80s but from personal experience. Kinda sad that right now all of my top 3 are in '04. If some magic happens this year Saturday night will certainly be a lasting memory.
Gelinas Eliminator against the Wings is the most excited I've ever been after a game. And the party on 17th Ave that night was what really made the red mile, the red mile.
Game 6 in '04 against the shark is the loudest I have ever heard the Dome, it was Saturday evening home game, I think the game started early (at 6pm maybe). There was this general aura about the building, we knew it was happening that night. The next three home just weren't quite as intense, there was almost a sense of mission accomplished once we reached the finals.
Game 6 against Vancouver even though we lost was the most into a playoff game I have ever been. coming back from 4-0 down to force tripe overtime. Crazy.
Of the 3 I have to pick the Geliminator taking down Detroit.
