Amazing that no Canadian team has come closer to winning the Stanley Cup in over 30 years than the Flames, who were one goal away in 2004.
The biggest highlight for me was Game 7 against the Canucks. Finally winning that playoff series and the way they did it, allowing the late goal then the redemption.
I drove 14 hours to get to Game 6 hoping to see the series clinch live and when they were down 4-0, I felt like it was the biggest waste of time in my life. Then the comeback, triple OT and heartbreak. It was all still pretty amazing looking back (thanks to how Game 7 turned out).
I was also able to attend Game 3 of the Final, scoring nosebleeds on Ticketmaster. That was incredible.
