I'm old enough to remember the Atlanta Flames' winning streak and the game that ended it. An HNIC loss to the Montreal Canadiens, a legendary team then in its absolute prime. It was exceedingly rare to watch the Habs play Atlanta on national TV; in fact, it might have been a first. I was thrilled with the result (Habs fan then). I had no idea I'd be cheering for the Flames with all my heart--and for the rest of my life--in two short years...
