An absolutely incredible number of fantastic moments - truly an unforgettable season in that regard.
But on top of all of them, for me, stands Matt Stajan, calmly corralling the puck, taking a moment, and then burying a perfect shot over Miller's shoulder and into the upper corner for the game winner and series winner against the Nucks.
My seats had me basically looking over his shoulder with a similar view to what he would have had. And for some reason, when the puck went to him, my thought was 'take your time, Matt'. He did. And then one of the best goals I've ever had the pleasure to witness live, happened.
The person. The situation. The team. The opponent. Perfect.
