I didn't have a chance to post in the game thread the other day, but watching that the team play in that jersey sent some chills down my spine.
And created some confusing automatic associations... On the blueline I kept seeing Boughner (#6), Buzek (#8), and Smith (#55). And I kept getting stressed that Regehr (#28) was leaving his defence position.
As for Fuhr's last game in 2000, didn't we proceed to acquire Vernon shortly thereafter? Man those were crazy times, digging up whoever wouldn't sign elsewhere. And in June that year we hosted the entry draft and there was next to no excitement in the city because everyone was dead to hockey.
