Yeah, I kept imagining how Kiprusoff was feeling when he heard all those people chanting his name while he was staring down the exact same crease he defended for us all those years.

And also how he must have felt when the Dome absolutely roared when Sharangovich scored the winning goal (I wasn't there, but it sounded incredible on TV).
