the double stack on Reichel and the 52 save performance is what we remember Kirk, don't worry.
The most perfectly executed pad stack in history
In overtime... of a game 7. It’s nearly three decades later and that remains the greatest save I’ve ever witnessed.
@@Statsy10 Not to downplay that save but for me I always think of Cujo with Edmonton against Dallas in the playoffs.
a tip : watch movies at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching loads of movies during the lockdown.
@Darian Judah yea, I have been using flixzone for months myself :)
McLean carried Vancouver to the Cup and came up short that year too. He had an interesting 93-94
Well, Kirk wasn’t exactly IN net for the goal, he was almost in the corner.
It’s a broad term... 😏
Exactly what I was gonna say
Always liked McLean's style, pre-butterfly. Game 1 of the 94 Stanley Cup against the Rangers was incredible.
Right?!
The goal where Wayne batted the puck into the net was earlier in the same season. I was at that game. It was an unreal goal. Full baseball swing, top shelf.
Wayne has always been a favourite player, I was at a friend's house in Burnaby, BC watching this on tv and cheered when Wayne got that goal, all my buddies got pissed at me. When I said that if it wasn't scored against Vancouver we probably would have missed the historic event, they agreed it was a good goal.
Happy you got the chance to see it! Thanks for sharing!
Kirk McLean was my first ever "favorite goalie of all time".
Dude's a legend. I remember him for all his gnarly saves in Rock'em Sock'em videos, not this.
Nobody cares that Gretzky scored on you, Kirk! lol
Kirk was a great goalie, very underrated
Kirk is mostly remembered for what Don considers the best save in hockey history
I remember this as a Canucks fan watching this live. I wouldn't have seen it otherwise. I remember being happy the Canucks won that game and went to the finals the same year, and that the Kings missed the playoffs entirely. This especially after the Kings beat the Canucks in the playoffs the year before.
Thanks for sharing with us!
I miss this era of hockey
Pavel Bure scores 50 goals in the season in that game, and almost no one talked about it lol. I still remember getting to watch this game live, because by mere fluke (this was before the era of every game being on TV) our local station just happened to have the broadcast rights to that game. It was 1 of only 8 games they were carrying that season.
A record that'll never be broken
Ovechkin: and i took that personally
With this pandemic shortening his seasons I'm doubting he'll get there. Father time will catch up.
Its shortened 1 season and ovechkin is so big and strong age won't mean much
Only if keeps on playing as long as Jágr does
@@DARTZZZZZ Well there was another shortened year in 2012-2013 which was 48 games i believe, due to a lockout
Gretzky could've scored on anybody in history, nothing to be ashamed of bud
I can't wait for when Ove hits 895. That moment will be incredible
I remember watching it.
Kirk Mclean was and still is my favorite goalie of all time!
He makes a convincing effort here!
One of my favorite goalies ever! Nice to see this interview.
What people don't realize is that a lot of Gretzky's assists would be goals for Gretzky if he had just held the puck and scored himself. Watch the videos, he easily could have 1100 goals if he was a selfish player.
KIrk McLean was a very underrated goalie, one of the best from his era. He never had a great team in front of him. He had a couple good ones, but never a great one.
I love these videos
3:44 😂2022-23 Ovi🔝🔝⤴️
In L.A many of the Kings best fans are also the most recognisable
I feel way worse for the fact that Mclean went through all that practice, dedication and long days at the rink only to end up playing for the Canucks. Nobody deserves that.
Gerald Diddick had good fighting stats on NHL 94.
Always dug McLean
What record is broken first?
50 in 39?
10 pts in a game?
Neither will ever be broken?
Gretzky had 8 points after only 2 periods against the North Stars in the 1983/84 season, but couldn’t play much of the 3rd period due to a minor injury he suffered in the 2nd period...but that would have been the game to do it.
Auston Matthews could legit take a run at either, though the 10 in 1 is more attainable than 50 in 39 imo. 39 straight games avoiding injury and scoring at that pace? That's crazy. Especially in this day and age where only 2 or 3 guys a season even hit 50 goals in 82.
@@Thick1 - the craziest thing about that record is only two guys had EVER scored 50 goals in 50 games (Richard and Bossy) up until that point in the history of the NHL. Then Gretzky comes along and not only demolishes the record by 11 games, but breaks Bossy & Richard’s mark 3 times in 4 years (50 goals in 39 games in 1982, then 50 in 42 games in 1984, and then 50 goals in 49 games in 1985). Total insanity.
@@Thick1 Mathews ain't gonna do sh*t
This is an interesting question, actually. Both are pretty unattainable, but I would say the 10 points in one game as it just takes one freak night instead of half a season of absolute supremacy.
By the way, many people know that Gretzky got to 50 in 39 by scoring 5 in that last game, but a lesser known fact is that his previous game was also a four goal outing. Nine goals in two games. Not too shabby! 😂
I think that Ovi will break this record
Give Kurri credit for a really good non play on the puck.
Mcsorley basically gifted that goal to Gretzky. 33>99
Ah the Canucks, the Special Delivery Jones to the Oilers' King Kong Bundy.
