I don't know enough about Lowry to comment other than it seems long for not a top player and I want to live in an alternate universe where Dave Lowry scored the OT winner in game six of the finals after coming from behind the bench to play. (almost actually happened)
Primary assist in the gwg it OT, (Marcus Nilson), but point remains.

Tore stomach muscles in January 2004, everyone wrote him off, tried to come back in Detroit series, lasted two games and then was hurt again, went behind the bench to help, then came back later in SJ series and for the Finals.

He was given the hardhat for Game 6 after coming back, and, beating SJ (his former team) by Conroy, who had it after Flames won Game 5 SJ (Conroy scored GWG there). And thus Lowry was responsible for giving it out to the next guy when Flames won next...which was game 1 SCF, and he gave it to....Turek, for being a solid teammate and helping the Flames getting to where they did in the season, even though fans had dismissed him. Class.

Between that and the flip of the puck out of play to allow Berube to come out of the penalty box in the brawl game vs ANA in 2001, have all day for a guy like Lowry.
