In 1993, The Toronto Maple Leafs & The LA Kings faced off in the conference finals to determine who would meet the Montreal Canadiens for the Stanley Cup. In that series, we learned what happens when Wayne Gretzky breaks the rules, and gets away with it. - กีฬา

Nooooo
Laughs fans like to forget that this was a game 6, and Toronto went right back home for a game 7 and got PUMPED lol 😂
Personally, when I see this, I see an accident. He took the shot, he was watching where the puck went, and his stick on the recoil hit the player's skate--instinctively/reactively, he moved his stick to avoid tripping the player, and it unfortunately caught him right in the face. That's how I read the play. I don't see any intent to 'stop the player from getting to the puck.'
But hey, maybe I'm wrong. Playoff hockey is pretty cutthroat.
somehow got away with it! ,,, was there ever any doubt something like this would happen, of course the refs never saw it to busy putting on those white gloves all 3 of them. it was so set up. by the way i hate the leafs but if were gonna have a major league sport & i mean major league. than do it. otherwise just play beer league shit. its so blatant its laughable
@@lonnieflyer6403 so why didn’t LA win the cup if it was “set up” ? Nobody cares about the leafs
The black jersey with silver numbers and Gretzky on the back is his villain era jersey.
thats his black spiderman suit
That’s when Gretzky turned heel and was part of the nWo 4 Life brotha.
@@wefindourheroes2772 explain
So funny
.....only if your a Leaf fan.....
Kerry Fraser still can't walk down the streets in Toronto without being harassed about that game to this day
He's not super welcome in Calgary either lol
That happened in game 6. Remember, the Laughs went back to Toronto for a game 7 and got pumped 😂
It's called game management. Refs don't call everything. The game would be terrible if they did.
He cant in Quebec city either lol
He’s dead.
That clip of Chrry was hilarious lol
"ehhhhh" Classic Cherry moment.
Was Don Cherry the Harry Carey of hockey or was Harry Carey the Don Cherry of baseball?

lol, "many people are saying..."
That close up of Burns on the bench was in the intro to Hockey Night in Canada for a long time. Still love him for showing more passion than the entire current Leafs roster.
Cross checking to the face isn't enough passion for ya? /S
I love how every single leaf will watch their teammate get pummelled and do NOTHING, but they’ll cross check a guy in the face for scoring an empty netter. Pathetic
@@gohabs8918 Go away, halfs fan
Dude you're my favorite Habs fan ever.
@@kyledavidson8712 Haha thanks. They are just SO sensitive and get SO angry lol!
Lord, please grant me the level of exhaustion that would hold me to 1 point per game in an NHL playoff series!
Lol right? What a bum he was!
Like my minor hockey league coach always said. if you try and say that 1 call was the reason you lost you aren't very good at analyzing a game because every single game has tons of missed calls both ways. Its part of having humans as referees, their will be some missed calls.
That's not the point. If you don't think the league wanted their greatest player of all time in the final, idk what to say. It's a game of inches. If one team gets the benefit of the doubt over another team they're even with, they'll usually come out on top. And that's what happened.
Generally true, however, this missed call would have put the best player of all time (arguably) out of the game in a close game. Your minor hockey league coach wasn't up against the literal best hockey player. Some calls have more impact than others.
@@spartaleonidas7132 Messier will always be the Greatest complete hockey player of all time (not arguably)
Hockey Psychology is cooking with the sponsor 💯
Nahhhhh
Great support of the sponsor from Hockey Psychology, horribly overpriced food with instructions how to cook it in a fancy way. Just watch some recipe tutorials on TH-cam, get off your ass, go buy the ingredients, and learn how to cook it.
So you’re saying Kerry Fraser is the reason I get bullied about being a leaf’s fan, got it.
This was only game 6. The Laughs went back home to Toronto and got PUMPED in game 7 😂
It's called game management. Refs don't call everything. The game would be terrible if they did.
@@gohabs8918 the point is game 7 should never have happened
@@junk3996 The point is, the Laughs are bad, and have been since '67
@@gohabs8918 We have made the playoffs more times than you have since 93 bud
Wild how many guys in that series came from the Oilers dynasty team.
the care you put into quality and narrative is what will differentiate you from the other hockey tubers during the off season. always a pleasure watching your passionate takes.
Calm down Mark.
Whenever Fraser was the ref, the game had to be about him
And his hair
Sadly missed calls are common even with video
Except all season the calls were made even if the ref didn't see it as long as there was blood.
Clark vs Mcsorley after that Gilmour hit was epic
That was a fantastic series.
Unfortunately, sports is full of shoulda, woulda, coulda. It was definitely a blown call, but it is what it is.
It just adds to the legend of the NHL playoffs. Things would be so boring if things like this didn't happen. There would be nothing to argue about and nothing to make excuses about. What fun would that be?
Breaking the rules, that is more like a non call from the ref that didn't see what happened. Honestly, the league went to two refs and they can't even see everything despite being able to see more.
They weren't going to kick Gretzky out of the game and give the Leafs a PP in OT on a deciding game. It just wasn't going to happen, which is why he got away with it
@@jeffreycairns767 Who are they?
A penalty is still a penalty and the non call was a disgrace to N.H.L. officiating. Nothing has changed since though, when you see what the officiating is to-day in 2024@@jeffreycairns767
exactly. sounds more like sour grapes to me. how many missed calls were there back in the one-ref days? if Fraser said he didnt see it, and the LINESMEN didnt see it, then they didnt see it. 'breaking the rules' like it was some flagrant violation. if you get clipped by a guy going for the puck, ya get clipped. sucks there wasnt a call but sometimes life sucks...
may be add two more refs
No referee has been involved in more controversial calls than Kerry Fraser !
The only missed call was the justice system in St. Louis refusing to prosecute Gilmour for what he did to his babysitter
Wake up babe....Hockey Psychology just dropped some heat
As the song goes, I've got some bad news for you, Sunshine. If the Leafs weren't able to beat Kelly Hrudey there is absolutely no way they were going to win 4 against Patrick Roy, point finale
I remember the day Kerry Frasier retired. People think Angel Hernandez is trouble...
i love when people conspericy this with the league wanted gretzky to win yet mcsorlys ilegal stick wasnt looked past to ensure it.
It's not about a conspiracy. It's about the fact that Toronto was 1 game away from eliminating the Kings. There was no way they were going to call a penalty on Gretzky, which would of sent him packing and given the Leafs a PP in OT. If it had been any other Kings player with the high stick, there's a good chance it would of been called, but not on Gretzky, especially in that particular situation
@@jeffreycairns767Dude you’re making conspiracies. Shut up
@@jeffreycairns767 The scenario you described IS a conspiracy.
@@niczim123 No, god is a conspiracy theory. A conspiracy theory is something that people believe is real without any evidence, yet I've provided evidence many, many times. You type of people just choose to ignore it.
@@niczim123 Bettman's worst nightmare almost happened: a final between Leafs and Habs. He fixed that by putting them in the same division.
Really good video my guy. Good writing. Good editing. Good VO. Love the vintage Ron and Don. And the call by Bob Cole is the icing on the cake.
You’re telling me that one of the hosts of the Great White North wrote an article talking trash about Wayne Gretzky??
Take off, you hoser!
@@igmusicandflying beauty
Dave Thomas was the founder of Wendy's, dummy.
I mean...... kinda. lol
And just think.
Kerry's hair never moved.😂
I remember this, and no matter how it turned out what a game it was
This just broke me as a kid. Watching that Leafs run was the closest me and my dad ever got, I wanted it to go on forever.
Hockey multiverse…. Violins at the end were hilarious
I'm surprised there isn't a Canadian Heritage Moment made for this.
Do you know what Gilmour did to his babysitter? Search it
For me, that game 6 was the most painful game of my life until, years later, the score was 4-1.
No sir. There was no playoff game with that score. Not sure what you are thinking about 😉
@@penguin44ca Lol
Oh man...i remember this series! Great vid!
2:48 is that Jean Claude Van-Damme behind the Leafs bench?
Not even close! - Check out Leaf coach John Brophy!
@@thecontractorssitechannel the fan behind the coach
@@thecontractorssitechannel holy jawline on Brophy though, it's like they put JCVD's face on Eric Lindros' head

CHICKS DIG MESH BOOSH
Along with missed offsides call in Game 6 of Stanley Cup Finals Islanders vs Flyers in which Isles scored in OT
I'll never get over this and I was too young to even watch it live. The Passion Returns doc firmly established this moment as a traumatizing event for me lol.
I wasn’t even born but it still hurts as a leafs fan 🤕
Then you’re probably hearing this for the first time: Toronto would go back home for game 7 and get PUMPED 😂 Laughs fans like to forget that important part of this story

Very cool hockey history, more of this content please!
Your videos have gotten me back into hockey again ❤
Oh god ... noooo. as someone who was watching this on my tv at home it still hurts. Life as a Leafs fan .
I love that Auston Matthews is from Tempe. You ever been there?
didnt know the leafs were in the western conference at one point
Conferences weren't west/east. It was Campbell and Wales.
@@matthewthomas1929How did I forget that? Still remember choosing my team in NHL 94 between Campbell and Wales conferences
That's LORD Campbell to you, peasant.
that was because Detroit wanted another eastern time zone team in the same division as them when the divisions got realigned. Harold Ballard jumped at this opportunity and then the rest is history
Detroit, Toronto and Columbus used to be in the west.
Smh I still suffer from ptsd from this! Thanks Frazier
This was a great video! You made it very interesting to watch
I can see how 1-2 refs could not have seen with people moving around and maybe looking at the puck/ off puck/ whatever else… but damn all three missing this. I find that strange…. But as someone who plays box lacrosse & just watch hockey casually… some shit just gets missed but damn…
They didn't miss it. They didn't want to call it on Wayne and ruin his chances at being in the final. NHL is a business first.
@@badmanskill1112Leafs and Habs in the cup final, the two teams with the largest fan base in the league and the oldest rivalry in the NHL wouldn’t have been good for business?
@@kakarotblake No. They're trying to grow interest in the US market. Leafs and Habs fans aren't going anywhere. They don't need to win for people to watch. The same can't be said for many US teams.
It's called game management. Refs don't call everything. The game would be terrible if they did.
@@Borodin410Yes we heard you the first 5 times you copy and pasted this
I love this channel
LET THE MAN COOOOK 😂🤙✨✨✨🎶 great vidz my dude
Lord. I remember that like it was yesterday.
What if Gilmour gets called for the headbutt? Does that keep the Leafs from getting to Game 6?
Not a Leafs fan but Fraser & crew really blew that call. Gilmour is dripping blood but no call? I can still see that moron McSorley playing with that curved stick so late in game 2 of the finals. Lots of fans thought that was a cheap call by Demers, it was genius! Rest in peace Pat Burns.
That stick call was super cheap & the hockey gods listened. That was the turning point
There were a helluva lot more missed calls in that series than Wayne's high stick. A missed call at the beginning of a game can change the whole game so it doesn't matter if it's a missed late call in a tie game or one in the 1st period.
Blowing a call and not seeing it happen are totally different.
@@thecasinator2679exactly... you can't call something you don't see. The play-by-play announcers have a great view and they didn't see the high-stick. It was reasonable to believe that the puck caused the cut on Gilmour.
Tough break for the Leafs...
we went to every single playoff game at the Gardens that year . Best year of my life hands down !
Deadly video, good shit man! 👌
A 10 minute video 30 years after the fact about a simple missed high-sticking call.
Hey what if KREIDER didnt injur PRICE during conference final??!!
You mean what if kreider wasn’t tripped into price by the habs dman?
Kings were probably gonna win the cup anyway, their offense would be too much
COVID cup should have an asterisk
NY BS@@AwesomeZach
Well done on this video...didn't it have a different title and thumbnail when it was originally posted? I thought it had Gretzky's face before...anyway, keep up the good work, good sir!
3:48 btw, there was no glass at Maple Leaf Gardens. The player's benches were literally just that. Benches. No stanchions to separate the players from the crowd. So when Burns went from his area, he literally walked the aisle where people were going to their seats, and literally could have got in the Kings' coach's face had he not been held back. In fact, crowd members could actually walk by and say things to players as they walked by, but somehow, everyone respected that the players and coaches were working. Hockey culture, I guess?
this video is a masterpiece. the clips and editing such a good job. much appreciated you spin it together nicely with your narrating to make a great nostalgic feeling to anyone who witnessed these games
Don cherrys “ehhhh” was goated
The leaf and Thinking the league is rigged against them a love like no other
A true love story for Valentines Day
But it's true. They'd rather not have Canadian teams in the SC final.
@@badmanskill1112 i mean 2021 had the habs and 2022 the oilers got swept
@@badmanskill1112 also that year the habs won it
@@bsfm6990 Ya, and no Canadian team has won it since. Over 30 years. Just on probability alone they should've won 6 times in those 30 years since there are 6 Canadian teams of out 30. Yet they haven't won it once.
Just going to leave out the part where Fraser said that Gilmour said he it was the follow through. A claim that Gilmour has never disputed.
Good on you getting a sponsor in, secure that bag!
Ok, so you can't call Gilmour for a head butt (5 and a game) but must call Gretzky for a high stick. Ok Leafs fans.
We wuz kangz
It's funny because the video indeed proves that not 1 call was missed, but many on both sides. Still, they will claim "we lost game 7 because of a missed call in game 6."
Kerry Fraser was one of the worst officials the NHL has ever seen
He was actually known as one of the best. nice try though
He was known as the best purely because of his hair
@@thecasinator2679 not really, he was even removed for the playoff loosing over 70k$ after a couple of bad game calls in his finals years. He was known to keep game score tight by calling out the winning team when the score was offf.
When he said the Cowboys won the Super Bowl, you know its very old.
I recall this well. It was the battle of the Head Coach Mullets: Burns vs. Melrose.
99 should have been the sin box for 5 min drawing blood with his stick
7 games in a series, and the Leafs still had game 7 to lose. Series didn't end on a bad call.
Yeah, but, momentum (the loser's excuse for losing).
The Kings were the better team in game 7, as they were in 2 other games in the series, and the Leafs were the better team in 3 of the games. The point of this is that Gretzky should of been out of the game and the Leafs should of had a PP in OT. It doesn't matter who the 2 teams are, that's the way it should of been. There's no way of knowing if they would of won the game or not but in that specific situation, there's a very good chance.
@@jeffreycairns767 but riding and rioting on that chance is absolutely pointless. Also, "have" not "of" its annoying and dumb of me to point it out, but it's a pet peeve. Anyway, I just said two pointless things🤷♂️
@@mikey._.33 OK?
Yeah, I still find the 1999 blown call of Hull's toe in the crease far more infuriating, as that one actually did immediately end the series.
It was kinda nice seeing the Hawks at the top if only for a brief second there back in the 90s 🤪
its time for the cup to come home. its gotta be Vancouvers year!
Not as long as Bettman is around
I don't know what Fraser specifically said about it, but it seems like an exceptionally fast flick of the stick. If he deliberately chose not to call it that's one thing, but I've gone through it frame by frame and it was a nanosecond in time. I understand that Fraser was on the ice and had a much clearer view, but to me, this was a very easy call to not see.
He's stated he simply didn't see it.
Do I believe him? I honestly don't know.
I'm a Habs fan, so like to think it wouldn't have mattered who they faced,.
@@ctlraltdestroyAs a Leafs fan myself, the Habs had a great team, but I believe the Leafs won the season series against the Habs (if I remember correctly) so at the minimum it would of been a great series. It's something that'll never have the possibility of happening again, which makes it even worse.
I would say Fraser broke the rules. The rules say Gretzky should have received a penalty, and Fraser decided not to. Gretzky did not have the option to volunteer a penalty.
He may have not seen it live. Even with the replay it wasn't obvious at first. And these were not reviewable back then.
@@tombladeThat's BS. They were the two closest players to the puck. It didn't happen behind the scenes.
@@tomblade Sure, but the hockey rulebook didn't make a forgiveness for that, and even if it did, that would only mean nobody broke the rules. Its the referee's responsibility to enforce the rules, nobody else's.
great stuff thanks for posting...
That trip on the breakaway was pretty huge the other way too.
One call never changes a game by itself.
Not hard to miss that call. Kerry is across the rink, Gilmore has his back to him. Nobody saw it. It's only on a slo-mo replay that you realize it was Gretzky's stick and not the puck that hit Gilmore in the face. It's hard for new hockey fans to understand how the game was played before instant replay, coach's challenges, four refs, and NHL head office monitoring every play. Also, penalties were not handed out like participation ribbons in the playoffs like they are today. The NHL is softer than a marshmallow today and the product on the ice reflects it.
the Leafs Cup Parade was cancelled from the get go......
Gretzky's high stick was unintentional, but still a penalty
Hi there Mr.Psychology lol, i love the content keep it up! i have a question though if you dont mind.
i have the dislike extension on my pc and it could be inaccurate, but i looked through a bunch of your videos and if the numbers are right you have one of the most popular channels period when it comes to like/dislike ratio and its just incredible. how do you do it if you dont mine me asking? do you have a strategy or is it just kinda luck? (i dont have a youtube channel i was just super curious.)
All I can remember is being at the Forum in Montreal the night the Habs won their 24th Stanley cup
Nice!
And then Gretzky and the kings handily beat the Habs… right?
This is such a good video. Amazing.
Are we not gonna talk about that wipe out during the celly?💀💀 3:26
That's some manipulative shit that Gretzky did there lol. Because he didn't argue anything in that situation, the referee probably thought that his time, he really didn't do anything worth a penalty.
Why complain when the call is going your way? LOL to you.
Huh? Isn't it just that Gretzky didn't try arguing because he knew he was guilty? Not his fault the ref still called it in his favour.
I dunno about that, I mean there is no doubt that Gretzky did the high stick, and he should have gotten penalized. There is no way Gretz did it on purpose, but he knew he did that it regardless, so he just skated away and kept silent and hoped for the best. I have a strong feeling he would've accepted that penalty without protest would it have gotten called. He was just real lucky it didn't.
@mat5473 Professional sports is 90% mind games. I mean, obviously, there's a skill gap, too. But these guys are talking trash to each other non-stop. In hockey, there's most of the physical stuff allowed, but for example, in soccer, players constantly keep stepping on each others' toes, pushing, pulling, pinching. Pros will literally do anything to distract and piss off their opponents and also manipulate the referee.
@@niklasmuller6969 Keep in mind that Bettman's job was to build the NHL in the U.S. Having a Toronto - Montreal final would NOT help his cause. We know that U.S. fans would not tune in. The leafs dominated the Canadiens during that regular season! Bettman pushed to build U.S. Fanbases with all his might. No more Canadian expansion teams? - Only U.S. ones? I'll never forgive him, and I no longer watch the live games, but he has done well at building the league in the US and has made Owners Rich! I bled Blue in those days, and as the weathiest team in the NHL, ya...the leafs were targetted by the Officials, the League and most unfortunately, sabotaged by their own greedy and uncaring owner - Harold Ballard. "Just wait till next year"!! 😉😓
He wasn't called 'Wayne the Whiner" for no reason.
While I hated Gretzky while he was playing, I can't really argue with how the call went. The officials were human beings, and cannot see everything.
I had basically stopped watching hockey by then, so this was actually the first time I've seen the play. I can now watch these things with an impartial view.
I was 10 years old. And i still remember kerry Fraiser's name and the missed call. Wendel clark deserves a shot at the cuo and what a final.that would have been for Hockey night in Canada. It's the Leafs vs the Canadiens!!!
Great video man !!
In a game loaded with missed calls, you can't blame one missed/blown call for changing the game. I mean I'd have given Gilmour 2 minutes for diving
Typical keyboard warrior stupidity comment 😂🤡🤡🤡
The video should be called "When a fan base obsesses about one blown call for over thirty years and hence, plays victim for eternity because of said blown call." They didn't lose the series because of the blown call either, there was a whole other game to play. A real champion overcomes adversity. Wipe your tears and get over it. It's literally been decades. Also, it didn't matter. The Leafs were not beating Roy.
And Gilmour got away with an uncalled headbutt. It's hockey, it's a 60 minute game with another to come at home. 30 years later and that's as close as they ever got. New ownership is so badly needed before we ever see another cup. I was alive for 4 cups, I was 9 in '67. I won't live to see another I'm sure. GLG
To This day, I still feel it. Kerry Frazier was literally hated in Toronto. While I have moved on in life, I've come to accept it as one of those things that 'Happen'. Today being involved with the NHL, I've come to truly appreciate how Officials are more in tune with the game. With the amazing speed and skill of the players, it is NO easy job. The linesman and the Referee's are truly out there to be the best at their profession. And, yes, while some calls are missed (via the fans ability to view replays in Super Slow motion) I believe todays Officials do an overall fantastic job in a Thankless profession. They grow tough skin to reach the NHL level and are some of the best conditioned athletes out there.
I truly enjoy the game more today as the overall level of play is amazing. "It's Always a Great Day for Hockey!" (Still holding out for a Leafs Cup final run)
Damn you Hockey Psychology… these memories were adequately buried and repressed until you had to beautifully detail the events of the night for us again. Aggghhhhhhhh….
Maybe Wayne Gretzky is born to parents that live in Hamilton, Mississippi and he never laces up a pair of skates. He takes a job at a company named Tronox and he is set to retire after 45 years as an employee next April. He'll probably get a $250 Walmart gift card and a little party during the swing shift lunch time with some cake. Then he plans to finish the shed he started building 2 years ago, he's got the concrete mix for the floor already so there's no excuses. His wife died 13 years ago from liver disease, she was an alcoholic. He's got a dog named Gordie. In this scenario Kerry Fraser does not alter history but the Maple Leafs lose in Game 7 to the Habs 8-2 and the next season they win only 14 games.
Only an all time Leafs fan would say that, "all time blown call in NHL history", no way, absolutely not
This was so well done.
I was at that game of red wings vs leafs in overtime. I was 9 years old. I cried after lol
if you look at it closely. its Gilmour's falling to the ice and laying there stretched out for a second or two is what gave the appearance of a faked hurt dive. I believe this was in Fraser's & the 2 linemen's minds initially in that moment which led to the no call
That wasn't a ''missed'' call, it was an ignored call. It was an ''oh, it's okay, it's Gretzky'' call.
The '92-93 run was the best Leafs season of my life.
I just wanted to mention Fraser's hair. That guy had the best hair the NHL has ever known.
I didn’t go to work the next day, never slept all night. And it took me decades to blame not only Fraser, but then MacKenzie.
yknow a few years back my parents had a boat in a marina in jersey and kerry and his wife had a boat on the same dock as us... im mad at myself i never asked him about this kind of stuff it wouldve been really interesting to hear some stories
Kerry Fraser...my hero.😂😂😂
