It was so beautiful. It was right there. He picked it up and he couldn't get the picture over with fast enough. He was already handing it to him. He never even thought about holding it up. Nothing comes close to that selflessness displayed right there with that same opportunity and stage. I dont even bother trying to hide the tears anymore.
Need to add to this video now as he won a cup as GM now too. Also win GM of the year! Great Hockey mind loved watching him on the AVS growing yo. That wrist shot wow what a rocket.
I was a kid in probably 2007 or 2008, my hockey team got to play during the intermission at pepsi center. I had to play on the other team because there were too many kids on my team. As a consolation I got interviewed by Allan Roach after the scrimmage. He asked me who my favorite player was. I’ll never forget saying “Joe Sakic” and hearing the crowd go nuts. Super Joe. One of one
@@altqq1755 .....my joke is in reply to his "joke" which is just a disrespectful troll on a video for a legend of the sport. Of course I know what he's referring to there bud.
Mostly just on their political agenda garbage. So I dont see why they post it when the overall likes/dislikes ratio is so bad and every comment says to stop with the political videos
Man, Joe handing off the Cup to Ray will never get old at all. What a great run that was for the Avalanche
Bourque is forever a Bruin though.
@@esotericterrorism3308 and any true bruin fan would acknowledge this as the greatest moment for Ray Bourque
@@shabba213Absolutely I'm happy for him but he is still a Bruin at heart.
@J.P. Menger Joe doesn’t need playoff choker Giroux to get a Cup. 😂😂😂
and we did it again :)
The Duchene trade should be on here
loloolololololololololololol so true
:D , fun and true
Also drafting Mac
Not only should it be on here, it should be top 3.
And Makar's addition to our great team! 5 to 3 and moving on with some rest!! Thanks Joe!!!
Handing the cup to bourque is one of the classiest moments in nhl history
Sports history ** but yes you're not wrong 🙂
Sakic my favorite player of all time!!!
Salt Lake City Olympic MVP in 2002! Joe Sakic truly is a legend!
Joe handing the cup immediately to Ray shows his character and why he was such a respected player
My favourite player of all time! Such a class act.
Crazy that Sakic started his career playing with peter Stastny and ended it playing with Paul, played with both father and son that's a long career
didn't realised that at all! that is amazing! (Slovak fan here)
The only captain in the NHL to ever hand over the cup like that... priceless and I was there...
Sakic is the definition of the golden age of hockey, dude played till 2009 and was still racking 1st line points. Absolute legend.
dude scored 100 points as a 37 year old. NUTS
1989-90 Sakic scored 102 points.
His team the Nordiques collected 31 points.
The player i idolized growing up man those were the days man thanks to him im still an Avs fan to this day
I miss Bob Cole and Harry Neale as broadcasters.
Sakic was so classy handing off the cup to Ray.
Ooooh baby.
Brett Hull telling Sean Avery you cant disrespect Joe and every red wing on the bench nods their head should be on here!
One of the best Canadian Hockey Players Ever. Thanks for the memories Joe!
He is the reason why I love the Avalanche.
Great player could be great general manager. It's true.
It’s safe to say he’s great in both departments now! Go Avs go!

Joe is the guy of one team, respect . He has always showed a lot of class for his role in this organization. What a wrist shot man !
Need to add to this video now as he won a cup as GM now too. Also win GM of the year! Great Hockey mind loved watching him on the AVS growing yo. That wrist shot wow what a rocket.
Don't care what anybody says. Sakic to Bourque is the greatest moment in sports. ever.
Я из России, но для меня это тоже Самый Великий момент в спорте!
Браво Сакик!
Joe your such a stud! your a beauty
Sakic, Forsberg, Bourque, Foote, Roy, Blake, Drury, Hejduk: damn we were spoiled in Colorado.
And tanguay
The two dislikes are Red Wings fans who were alive then.
Fun Fact: this guy is the reason Seth Jones play’s hockey (he told his dad how to get Seth into hockey)
I’ve always loved Joe Salic❤️he’s my favorite player & seems like such a good guy too.
... Switch number 1 and 2...
Frankly , nothing can top the Ray Bourque moment.
But this is a Joe Salic video. Not a ray bourque video.
@@anotherheffis still a demonstration of character and leadership on his part
That stanley cup win in the first year of the franchise was great but the pass off to borque should have been #1 IMO
He's one of the greatest.

He’s my GOAT 🐐
Damn, i miss watching Sakic and Forsberg play together.
Honourable mentions: 1) 2G, 2A in the 2002 winter Olympic gold medal game (game MVP) 2) Hat trick in the 2004 All-Star game + MVP
Two of my favourites all time. Sakic to Smyth 2 on 1, very nice
What a beast.
Joe had one of the greatest wrist shots of all time. WICKED release
He was a beaut....had them winning their first cup in Colorado that yr....cleaned house good $$$$
Да были люди ,в наше время. Смотреть игру Колорадо в то время было наслаждения. Здоровья великий капитана, той великой команды.
Dang, I NEEDED this video today. Thanks, Sportsnet!! (Also, I’ll take one for Forsberg, Foote, Hejduk, Drury, Tanguay) 😎🏒🥅🚨
SUPER JOE
how lucky was i to start watching ice hockey in 1996 and then never again! loved Col Av...joe, deadmarsh, foote, forsberg, lemieux, keane
Captain Class
Super Joe!
what a rare camera angle at 7:06
Joe was the reason i got into hockey
Joe Sakic Is A True Legend As The G.O.A.T🐐👑🥇🏆🥅🏒🚨⛸️
Super Joe is my favorite player all the time
I don’t like the Avalanche but it’s impossible not to like Sakic. He was fun to watch.
When he knocked stevens on his ass and then scored in game 7 of the finals joe sakic was amazing one of my favorite players all time
Salt Lake city? Even if you don't own the rights. It's one of the best moments in World hockey history.
The title says "NHL career moments"
the GOAT
YES!
I wish Smyth didn't get hurt when he was on the Avs. Would have loved to see him play more
Number 1 and number 2 need to be swapped. His 2001 season ending with him handing the Cup to Ray is peak Sakic.
I'm here to watch Ray Bourque lift the cup again
The Nordique 👀
Burnaby Joe! Salt Lake!
Joe Sakic is like the more successful version of the guy from Moneyball
No snow blowing tips?
nah, he can just use all that salt you produce to melt it instead.
@@kylekyyy2694 you dont understand a joke do you?
@@altqq1755 .....my joke is in reply to his "joke" which is just a disrespectful troll on a video for a legend of the sport. Of course I know what he's referring to there bud.
@@kylekyyy2694 .. he and Yzerman were my two fav players. I just don’t take TH-cam comment sections as seriously as you.
@@tbz1551lol I didn't take it seriously, I made a joke in response to your joke. I'm not losing any sleep here.
Kucherov models Joe Sakic well.
If you're a Devils fan just look at the thumbnail and don't watch the video. it helps to imagine Joe was a devil with that camera flash on the jersey.
GO AVS GO
87 overall distributior ok
Nothing from Team Canada??
The video is about his NHL career as the title implies.
Croation nobility, Rubinić>Knezović>Šakić, from southern Herzegovina.
Joe Kikass
it is not Sakik orSakiq it is Sakić
If there’s somebody you want your son or daughter to Idolize on how to play the game of hockey, look no further than Joe Sakic
Can you believe this guy ended his career on a snowblower accident?
too much bettman in this video - as is tradition i guess...
not a single good play against the wings apparently
Was expecting his epic clapper in game 6 of the 96 WCF.
Peter Forsberg was better.
dude a goal on an empty net is not a top ten play
I like how sports net turns off comments on all videos pertaining to women. 😂 LMAO
Mostly just on their political agenda garbage. So I dont see why they post it when the overall likes/dislikes ratio is so bad and every comment says to stop with the political videos
Sakic immediately handing the cup to Bourque…🥶🥹
Worst highlight reel I’ve witnessed
A wonderful hockey player and a great private person as well.👍🏒🇨🇦
Joe Sakic is like the more successful version of the guy from Moneyball
