Midway through the first, who else but Mike Modano gets a breakaway from his own blueline, streaks over the center line, and little Freddy comes streaking out of his net to poke-check him just inside the Flames zone. The 'dome went absolutely crazy! For the rest of the game we all chanted "Freddy! Freddy!", while my Sister-in-Law sat in silence.
We ended up winning 1-0-I couldn't even tell you who scored for us.
To this day, I still tease my Sister-in-Law about that game.
I was also at the game where the streaker incident occured....

Remember that game well for some reason...it was Jeff Shantz that got the tally.
Here ya go.
