whos watching after beating vegas in OT game 3
not me I've watched this 5 times and I still enjoy the video
Habs in the finals now bro
@@thomasdaintree3089 yes sirrrr
game 6 but close enough! lol
@@thomasdaintree3089 LETS GOOOOOOOOOO!
Who’s watching after the Habs advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals!
BANGGGGG
Meeeeeeeee go Habs go
Feels a little bit like 93 lol ?
Me!!!
@@philipsmashmouth8782 Whose your loser team, LOSER?
Vincent Damphousse is a grossly underrated player. He was talented, tough and productive. I don't know if he will ever be considered for the Hall of Fame, but anybody with any sense who watched hockey from 1986 to 2004 knows he was a great player.
david voleks won us the stanlery cup
Should be in Hall of Fame easily.
Carbonneau's face and those scars..True hockey warrior.
One of the best!
And finally, he gets what he deserves an induction to the Hockey Hall of Fame.
you don't win 4 selke and 3 stanley cup by being shy in the corners
@@jonathancote9372 Danault could learn a thing or two from him
@@codo27 danault is not as offensive as carbonneau was in his best year and still he played against the best in the 80's the statsny, the gretzky and the lemieux etc...
28 years later we are one round away from the Stanley cup finals again 😉 tbf we almost made the finals in 2014 but this is our chance to win the Cup again. these 2021 Habs have that same type of magic to 1993 Habs.
Agreed! Underdogs... nobody believing in them but themselves. From your lips to god's ears!!!
lol
uhh future calling....5-1 dam
28 years later and the Stanley Cup still says MADE IN USA on the bottom.
I’m not sayin it, knock on wood,but everything seems to be going the Habs way in the playoffs
Yea everything is going too well
they honestly could pull it off price versus fleury would be insane!!!!!!!!
I'm here watching this to try and spawn some of those vibes for the Habs.
I was 3 when they won this Cup. I've never had a chance to truly experience it.
And just as I witnessed Ray Bourque win the Cup with the Avs in 2001... now I want to witness Carey winning it with the Habs. Maybe in in 2021.
i am quebec native, i hate the habs, just dumb people run this organization. but since my father, big fan, die hard fan, so i need to educate my self a bit about the league now and hype myself eheh
and looking at the previous comments saying the same thing i still feel that history will repeat
Who is here during the Coronavirus quarantine...
happy memory during these challenging times.
Whole Canada - Thanks to Winning Hollywoods & Gretzkys Kings ! Most TALKED Player at California - since The 88 #99 Trade !
Desjardins' hat trick saved the Cup in Game 2.
I was in Toronto at the Time of The Trade ! Everybody was talking about it - and Coudnt understand what that / this meant for OILERS & California & Kings ! He surely was The Talk of Toronto - that Week !
I hate these type of comments.
I'll never forget that night at the Forum for game 5 against the Islanders in the Wales final. I was sitting in the first row behind the penalty box with my dad and I remember the lid falling off of the Prince of Wales trophy. Then when my dad and I got out of the Forum, I looked at the intersection of rue Atwater and rue Ste.-Catherine and I saw was a sea of screaming humanity. That whole part of downtown was shut down because everyone as well as the people in the Forum, everybody in every bar downtown was in the streets screaming.
I started yelling "GO HABS GO, GO HABS GO!" and in seconds, there were thousands of people chanting with me. My god, what a feeling that was for a young teenage kid. It will be one of the things I remember on my death bed. I'll never forget it.
93 was an awesome yr
I was at the game as well...i remember 2 lone islanders fans, a young couple, sitting a few rows behind us...they were so quiet throughout, but were heckled terribly! They had to be escorted by security before the game ended as it wasn't safe for them to stay! Playoff hockey is serious as a heart attack up here! lol
Whenever I see outside shots of the Forum with the escalator lights that resemble hockey sticks I get misty.
Beautiful story man. I was 12, living with my dad, him and I watching the entire playoffs, me betting 1 or 2 dollars with his friends during powerplays. It just felt different, I remember every round, the night they won, my dad and I were up jumping around in the living room. He even kept me home from school the next day ha. A year later he was gone. Man time flies, life is so damn precious. I’ll never forget that year. Cheers. Go habs go!
@@stevencooke6451 Yeah me too. I've been in there since it became "The Pepsi Forum" and they got centre ice, the seats and the statues, but... it's not the Forum anymore. People who have never been there don't understand what we've lost. When I get sad about it, I just remind myself that "At least I got to see games there. There are so many who will never get that chance." and I feel a bit better about it.
10 overtime wins in a row in the playoffs will be a record tht !will never be broken
Because Patrick Roy is not going to be reincarnated.
lol after the 5th straight OT win, i would celebrate after a tied 3rd period.
@@AltCTRLF8 LMAO I wish I was alive to see these legendary playoffs series
I remember, that WAS the series for the ages. 10 OT's in a row.....it was as if the team was invincible if they could just get it to the overtime period. Roy removed all doubts that he was the greatest goaltender in the modern era to play the post season.
No it won't. I guess that we were lucky that we saw one of these unbreakable records set in our lifetime because pretty much all of the other ones were set long before we walked the Earth.
Jacques Demers later revealed that at the time he coached his team to the Stanley Cup, he could not read.
The guy learned how to make "X" and "O" on a board, how to write the jersey numbers for his starting lineup, and that's all!!
@Samuel McNair Yes, that's true. He came out years later and said that he was not literate. To me it's just another example of how determination and a positive attitude can take you as far as you want to go in life. He is an extraordinary man and he will always be among my list of heroes.
I guess that being able to read isn't always the mark of a true genius. He's proof of that.
It truly is one of the great sport stories haha
While being perfectly bilingual?
One of the greatest mullets of all time was Melrose in ‘93. Epic.
It was the greatest Stanley Cup playoffs ever played. Jacques Demers was my favorite coach ever. He treated the players with respect and he was such a positive guy.
No the leafs was,
@@jayus2033 na na na na , na na na na ,,,, hey hey heyyyy gooood byyyyye !
I was shocked to learn later that Demers never learned to read or write and that he kept that secret from the players and team.
@@jayus2033 hahahah leafs lost 🤣🤣
@@appletile2887 It just goes to show you that even if someone is illiterate, they can still be a genius and he sure is a genius!
IMHO, it was the greatest Stanley Cup playoffs ever played. It was magical to watch: the Nordiques vs the Canadiens, Brad May's OT goal for Buffalo ("May Day! May Day!"), the Leafs run with Gilmour (who was playing on another planet), 10 overtime victories by the Canadiens, Desjardans' hat trick, the Kings run, etc.
John Bristowe you are high, not even close.
John Bristowe: Agreed. I am 40, and it was definitely the best post-season I have ever seen. I say that as a Leafs fan! The second best post-season I ever saw? 1994. That was also epic!
YOU FORGOT THE BEST PART- Islanders ending the cocky Penguins 2 year cup run- what a moment!
1993 was a great yr all round
Definitely my favourite Leaf's team of all time. But for Kelly Fraser letting Wayne high stick for free, we would have had Leaf's Habs. I didn't think our team was anything, after growing up on Beliveau and Guy Lafleur, but after Patrick turned it on, I knew nobody could beat him. He won those games by himself. Nice to know the part Jacques Demers played.
I remember the 93 run like it was yesterday. It was EPIC. Now I find myself drinking just as much beer watching the 2021 run as I did watching the 93 run. Love my HABS. Go HABS Go
Sorry, you're gonna gamble.
I remember it too! Loved it. Totally dominated L.A and Gretzky!!
Frogs got their asses kicked in 5 by the high octane Lightning.
Even if the Canadiens don’t lift the Stanley cup this season they did their best and it’s something they should be proud of.
Six more wins, Andrea. We can do it! It's way past due to bring back the Cup to it's rightful home, which sure as HELL a'int Tampa F'ing Bay. Or any of these expansion teams that have made SO many of us true, traditional hockey fans turned off for so long now. My GOD, let it be the Islanders and Canadiens in The Finals. A Tampa vs. Vegas Series would be yet another huge blow to the NHL.
@@tombstone1111 Don't matter. Vassy is winning again either way.
they are in final now
Im seriously so proud of them. Even if they don’t win, I’m happy we got this far. Never thought i’d see it
1993, the year of my graduation in my native country, Morocco. At that time i did not know even if there is a sport called hockey. In 2001 i moved to live in Montreal, then i discovered hockey , by watching Habs games, since then i cannot cheer for any other team. Go habs go. Go win the 25 th cup this year , 2021
Blues fan here cheering on Montreal! When I was a kid, the Canadiens were an automatic L almost every game, every season. They swept us twice in the finals and again in the 77 playoffs. Our first 10 years in the league, we were 9-43-10 against them. Their dynasty was waning by the late 80s and early 90s, but they're the NHL's golden franchise and one for which I have a great deal of respect. GO HABS GO!
And now I can say we are in the Stanley Cup finals since 1993 GO HABS GO!!!!
Always brings a tear or two to this Habs fans face watching this video..especially the end. 24 together!
Me too brother, me too. :D
You got the boots put to you by the high octane Lightning!
The team was full of hard working guys. All 4 lines contributed. And then there was Patrick.
At the end of the clip you see a shot of Serge Savard smiling in the crowd. He's proud of his boys, like a father would be.
“If you’re the goaltender of your team and you got your head between your legs....everybody sees it... and it makes everybody nervous”
-Patty Roy
Good one... His demise is essentially due to the coach (which was Tremblay). They hated each others, and Tremblay did many things to humiliate him. Not only via some attitude, but also via game decisions. There seemed to be some rampant jealousy from Tremblay... Combined to the fact that he also was the kind of guy who thinks that you need to show strength by breaking people for "control" (which would essentially be a childish ego game)... Well, he broke Patrick all right! And we lost a tremendous goal tender.
@@HawkFest
Tremblay did things to humiliate Mike Keane and Donald Brashear as well.
Why Corey would hire Tremblay as head coach who was openly vocal about his complete dislike for Patrick Roy, with high tensions between the two going back as far as Roy's rookie season in '86. Corey had to know it would be a totally dysfunctional relationship. Tremblay proved how destructive his own ego was when he left Patrick in net for 9 goals on that fateful night against Detroit......and the snobbish look of contempt as Roy slid past him on the bench. Worst coach ever.
@@TheMrkaninja He was and idiot.
@@HawkFest Demers treated Roy like a God, and really that was a small price to pay to keep the greatest goaltender in the game happy, and give the team a chance. The trade worked out for Roy, and the former Nordiques team.
@@Steven-vs1fn I can only imagine how differently you play if you feel that anyone the other team gets the puck it will probably go in the net. I think of the great Oilers teams and think that if they didn't have Fuhr would they have played so freely up front?
2 wins away and we are playing for the cup!!!
now 1 !

McSorley: it's everyone's fault I got caught with an illegal stick but mine.

McSorley did all his work using his stick....sweet irony.

Get well soon, Jacques. We miss you.
Ça fait longtemps qu'on l'a pas revu depuis qu'il a quitté rds et même je crois qu'il a quitté la politique aussi.
@14:47 "...unfortunately for them [Pittsburgh] , they were not there". hahahahah God damn Roy and his jabs! Little smirk too. Love that guy!!! Best post-season ever!
You know why Pittsburgh wasn't there? Cause they weren't good enough
Yeah it’s easy to jab at someone when you don’t have to face them. Notice he didn’t jab Boston? Why? Because he knew he’d have to see them again.
@@daveyboy_ It's very hard to win 2 straight Cups like the Pens did. Even harder to win 3 straight. Sometimes 'you get got' by a hot team like the Islanders. It's happened to every dynasty.
Props to the Canadiens for capitalizing on the opportunity that other teams afforded them. It happens in every sport. The Steelers' Superbowl runs the past 15 years were only possible if another team took out Brady and the Pats. The Steelers were incapable of beating him in the regular season, let alone the playoffs.
@@persona-non-grata didn't happen to Mtl in the 70's . It did but not really.
@@daveyboy_ Yea I sometimes wonder what that loaded Pens team could have done in the 70's when there were only 14 to 18 teams in the entire league.
Anyone else here feeling this way about this years Habs, that game 2 win was all heart! Drive for 25 is alive!
Drive for 25 is DEAD😂

NHL 94 on the Sega is what brought me to The Habs. I picked the team with the best goaltender. St Patrick. I played all 82 regularly season games and the playoffs to win it again and again. That team was my introduction to the NHL 27 years ago. I am still waiting for Cup 25. Regardless my love for the Habs has grown year by year.
Thats dedication my friend!!! There was no season mode in nhl 94 you had to look to you're team Callender 😆 and make you're own season
@@Davidjon1946 All I know is I bought a Sega Mega Drive, it came with NHL Ice Hockey and I played as the Habs (This is in the UK). I Guessed at 94. The generation is hazy but I am not making it up.
who’s here after they beat Vegas in 6 and are heading to the finals
Who's here after they got their ass kicked by the high octane Lightning in 5
14:52-14:55 Patrick Roy being downright savage. "Unfortunately for them (Penguins), they were not there." And with a little bit of a smirk.
Love that moment
2021, We just swept the jets and I’m here
Yep I'm here to Nathan Go HABS GO.
Bettman can’t steal this. Go Habs Go!
THEY GOING TO THE FINAL 2021 CONGRATS MTL WOOP 🙌
Guy Carbonneau should be in the Hockey Hall of Fame!
wadmanlikesbeer1 1 000 000 x OUI !!!
Yes he should
I agree
Unbelievable that he's not. Great two-way player. Best shot blocker I have ever seen. Guts.
and now he is
this is actually it. first time in my life my Habs are reaching the SCF. the anxiety, excitement, relief, of finally having the chance of winning is beyond what i've ever felt before if im being 100% honest.
only thing left to do is get the job done. the whole of Canada is rooting for this team. GHG
Most of Canada cannot stand the dumb frogs and are elated that the Lightning kicked their asses in 5.
When Patrick Roy was still happy with the franchise
I remember being on the Kings bandwagon and wanting so bad for them to win. It really bothered me that the Habs won yet another cup. But watching this now makes me feel different. I am now glad the Habs won that cup. Brisbois, Roy, Carbonneau were great to listen to. I can't believe Melrose saying the illegal stick call cost them the cup! If he truly believes that, then maybe he should have hired Tony Robbins for some positivity training...oh wait!
It didn't bother you when Gretzsky sticked Gilmour in the face?
The hand were deserving champs. Sad for la and gretzky. That was his last time in the cup finals.
Most people got over those things. And if they can't, then they should acknowledge that they probably should have lost to the Leafs in game six of the Western Conference final. And of course, the same referee was in charge.
Kings had no business in the finals. It should have been Toronto. The Gretzky high stick was much more cheap and devastating than McSorley's stick. It's been almost 30 years, time for guys like Melrose to move on .
Kings lost the series 4-1, how does removing 1 penalty suddenly make a three game swing in a series?
New coach, star goaltender underperforms during season, face a tough arch rival first round and come back from a 2 game deficit, better team gets taken out in first round so able to sweep second round... anyone else noticing a pattern here?
and the last time they played a western team in the playoffs was in 93. They lost the 1st game 4-1, won the second 3-2 and the third in OT. I just watched them beat Vegas in OT in game 3, after losing the 1st game 4-1 and winning the second 3-2 lol
Who’s here after Fleury assisted the Habs?
Still getting Vassy'd though.
@@dannythomas417 Unless the Montreal Forum ghosts get in the way... 🤣
@@mrconfusion87 It don't matter who wins this series. Vassy is gonna win again. He's changed since that sweep in 2019.
Les Canadiens sont la ! What a magical season that was.
Montreal had many magical Springs but this topped them all because on paper they should never have won the cup that year given the scale of talent from the competition. It truly was a team of destiny. I am so blessed to have seen that run from beginning to end......what a roller coaster ride of emotions.
They are shocking the world now. One more game and they’re in their in the cup final. They had Roy back then. Now they have price.
Carey Price is gonna pull a 93' Patrick Roy ❤🤘
The only thing Carey Price is going to get is SHELL SHOCKED when a severe Lightning storm hits again tonight.
Best sports year of my life, Habs win the Cup and the Jays win the World series then do it again in 93 !!!
The other special fact for a 42 years old Habs fan, born and raised in Montreal like me. It's that Canadiens are one of the major reasons of why, Gretzky doesn't have a Stanley Cup on US soil. As a hockey fan, it's sad because he deserved it. As a Habs fan, it makes it even more special to remember we won that last Stanley Cup, agasint the greatest player of all time.
When we were playing deck hockey in the street in the 90's, you guys have no idea how many times 'Gretzky' scored on 'Roy'....or the opposite, Gretzky has been robbed by Roy.
Good old days. I wish to see an other one before I leave.
Thanks for that documentary, made me really happy :)
I have seen Montreal win 18 or 19 Stanley Cups in my life and there were some great finals the Habs were involved in but there was no cup run like 1993....10 OT straight wins. You knew they were a true Cinderella team a team of destiny. All the right teams got knocked off that year. In 2010 I felt that same breeze of 1993 return with Halak repeating Roy's magic. He carried the team on his back against 2 much more powerful teams than Roy faced in 1993. Washington had Ovie and Pittsburg had Crosby both in their absolute prime. Both the Caps and Pens through everything, including the kitchen sink at Halak but he managed to win both wars. The team in front of him was sorely outmatched almost down to the player by these two opponents. By the time Montreal met Philly in the third round Halak way already she'll shocked and the team in front of him had so many bruises, it almost hurt to even breathe. The dream was over. In 20-21 Coach Julien had a record of 9...4 and 4 principally due to the terrible play at the start of the season of Price who let in 5 goals a game and was fired by MB who hired what would become the worst coach in the history of the organization. He had no clue on how to coach men. Allen dragged the team into the playoffs. In 20-21 that run had a lot of magic to it going into the finals. Had they had a good coach who would have put the team first and not Price, they could have had a Stanley Cup.
18 or 19? How?
I'm a true Canadien fan, I will not forget '93 best year ever!
I was a goalie when I was a kid. Roy was my hero. I still remember him winking at Gretzky
He winked at Thomas Sandstrom, but I feel what you are saying. :)
@@kingdavid7571 Yup
I was on UN duty in Croatia when the Canadiens won that Cup. It was still the pre-internet days and luckily everyone had access to a TV in our HQ. I won’t forget it.
Do you know the first owner and goalie of Montreal was a Croatian. Joe Catarinich. he changed the crest to C H. Croatia Hrvatska !
Great time!! But, I often wonder what a Leafs - Canadiens final would of been like if not for the Gretzky factor. If only...
Would have been fun. All-Canadian final, two Original Six teams, in two historic arenas, with two French-Canadian butterfly goalies.
STANLEY CUP FINALS LET'S GOO!!!!!
28 years later and they're in the Finals again!!!
Still brings tears to my eyes , i love the habs
I was 15 at the time this happened. Best year of my sports life. My home team, The Cape Breton Oilers won the Calder Cup in the AHL, The Toronto Blue jays, my favorite baseball team, won the World Series and most importantly, The Habs won the Cup! I was tired a lot at school during that run of OT's but man it was glorious.
"I don't know if Patrick Roy had an answer for Mario Lemieux and his crew" - Glenn Healy... well if you had an answer for them, chances are a top 3 goalie in history probably did as well... salty
Watching this makes me feel like a teenager again and especially watching the Canadians on TSN or on RDS back then and I remember going crazy watching them win all of those games and then the Stanley Cup
Who's here after the Canadians beat Golden Knights in OT Game 6
Been a Habs fan since I was a kid in 1974. Always watched Hockey Night in Canada every Saturday night in upstate NY. I have seen many great players during the 1970s but the 1993 team was a made up of warriors.
Who's here after Montreal advanced to the cup finals?
Who's here after the frogs got their asses kicked by the high octane Lightning in 5?
@@thegoat164 Well you got me there bud (only a 1 goal win though so wasn't that big a beaten)
Thank you for this perspective on the Habs cup win in '93. Enjoyed it very much.
It's been officially 30 Years since this market won a cup.
I am french , back in 1990 I was in my uncle ´s (who lives in Canada) house in Portugal during the holidays and I found a book of Montréal Canadiens history. I felt in love immediately with hockey and the Habs
I was so happy that year for Denis Savard. He is still a very popular figure in Chicago.
Yep , tears of joy . 10 overtime wins !!!!!!
its June 24 and Canadien are going to the Finale of the stanley cup
thank you THANK YOU HABS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! from a Brooklyn native and a die hard HAB. best years of my life
Great video. Odd there is no mention of rookie goalie coach, Francois Allaire. He revolutionized the position and it started with his work with Roy.
Gretzky mad at Marty? Hell, if Fraser would have done his job, Wayne would've been ejected from game 6, not scored that games OT winner, and the series may have ended differently. Here in Detroit, we all thought it was our year. Was a great 7 game 1st round series vs the Leafs, but it still hurts thinking about that 7th game OT loss. Damn you Borchevsky!!! Haha. I was sooo happy that Jacques won the cup. He was a great coach, and made hockey fun again for us Wings' fans. God Bless you Jacques!
Detroit fan? At least you had a competitive series that year. My team got swept by Buffalo that year.
Absolutely incredible. So well done
28 years after we are back in the finals. Go get the cup and be immortalized in hockey history boys.
yeassssss!!!
Greatest sporting moment of my life.
Dennis King U obviously missed ' 86 . That was better. Game 7. OT against Hartford. Roy playing like he was from outer space in NY. The Calgary series coulda went either way. The riot was a blast. No one got hurt. ( except the cops who were butthurt) and former players and coaches write chapters in their autobiographies on .The parade .
Dennis King nobody was alive then... unless unless you are 102.
NOS not 1886 dumbass ! 1986 ! Mtl - Calgary
25 years since a Canadian team has one. Thanks bettman
Nah. Canadian teams suck.
You should rather "thank" the Habs administration for *sabotaging their team whenever it gets competitive,* while trying to lure and deceive people in believing that they have a "great team" - having a "solid NHL Franchise" doesn't mean that the team is great, it's actually far from many truth (they prefer to pay for marketing extravaganza rather than Hockey star players, a propaganda machine more that a real Hockey Team !)... Why? Because *they're in for the money, not for the sport.* As such and for them, "winning" relates to making the biggest pile of money they can get out of that business. *When you understand this, you have the answer as to why they've become a team of losers* : in Montreal, even a team of juniors or second grade talents can fill the Bell center as long as they're wearing the Habs jersey.
The organization knows it and they capitalize on this : Strictly money-wise, why spend big salaries on talented players, if people don't really care about talent when they buy their tickets, Hockey jerseys or whatever other marketing by-product? Also understand why they want people in Quebec to consider Hockey as a religion : in such context, it becomes irrelevant if the team (the product) is very bad.
@@HawkFest why spend big salaries on talented players? Hun? Montreal always is near the cap limit for salaries. Yes, last year they did have some space, but that was since they lost a few UFA's. Your explanation is way off. More likely players don't want to play in Montreal because of the media. FFS they went through Theodores garbage back in the mid 2000's....
@@andrewstat6764 yeah agreed, that would also be an element of the "equation" :D. However, in my "assessment" I'm considering two decades of odd and bad moves considering what they could have, and had under hand (not counting those players who don't want to come in Montreal, and counting those who do or did want to come here - because they exist, much more than you'd think!)
HawkFest yet the current organization of success is the Penguins. I’m a pens fan but I can’t believe had bad and underachieving the Habs hav be dong for the last 20+ years. I know that u have to rebuilt after runs of success but the Habs seem to not care about winning the cup.
About thirty years ago, ran into Serge Savard talking to Vladislav Tretiak on the corner of Atwater and Ste-Catherines.
This brought back some great memories for me. In '86 I remember chewing my finger nails during that series. In '93 I was on St.Catherine street with the crowd pouring out of the Montreal forum after that cup winning game and people were full of joy!Thanks for the memories and GO HABS GO!
Hoping I get to see one in my lifetime. Looking forward to flying back home, and joining the crowds on Ste. Catherine St.
We’re almost there
LEGENDARY MOMENTS ...
This doesn't have enough views. Love em or not as far as documentaries go, fantastic work.
What an absolutely terrific video.
All respect, forever - for Jacques Demers.
So a two-minute minor for an illegal stick caused LA to lose 4 games straight? Okaaaay
Momentum. It's a thing. Especially in big games.
Plus if it was not illegal Habs would get the penalty. So gamble paid off. Do not want a penalty for illegal stick do not cheat. LA got caught cheating & paid the price.
@@fightingirishman77 it wasn't a gamble. They snuck in the locker room earlier, and measured.
28 year (and counting) hex for that No Class move.
@@CatSamurai99 proof? Also it was pretty obvious it was illegal. It’s not like no one knew. Mcsorely was just an idiot
As A forever Maple Leaf victim. This is the only time I cheered for Montreal. I will never forgive Kerry Fraser for missing the high stick major that would have been A lifelong dream come true to watch the Leafs vs Canadiens cup final.
I'm a maple leaf fan too even if we got to the stanely cup final I doubt we could have stopped the Habs that year.
Wow what a beautiful documentary! Amazing to relive those moments. Thanks 🙏 from Regina Saskatchewan 👍🏻
Whatched that whole run one of my greatest sports memories
We love you Jacques. Great coach. So sad Roy was traded after giving us two cups.
They wanted to trade him b4 that but after he won in 93 Savard knew that he couldn't lest he be run out of town. A trade was in the works in 95 . Rpy for Nolan but Serge got canned

Beautifully done.
Thank you for this Video! More Videos like this pls 🙏
I have an old VHS of their 1993 playoffs journey & its the same images they used !!
I wonder if I've still got that one buried somewhere in my basement! Was a great Video
Beautiful documentary I’m a rangers fan from Kabul I came to NYC in 85 and loved hockey ever since Roy was my favorite goalie the best
As a Wings fan it was great to see Demers get the Cup.
The Habs had never gone more than 7 years without winning the Cup. ('79 to '86; '86 to '93....like clockwork) Hard to believe it's been 25+ years now. No guarantee they'll get back to the top, but having experience a run like 1993 sure is sweet, no matter how much time has passed.
Down, 2 games to 0, going to OT in Game 3 vs Quebec. Do or die. It was as if Roy said, "That's it. No more. I've got this." 10 straight OT wins??? That's nuts!
All 4 3rd-place teams advancing to the Conference Finals? That's nuts!
Salvaging the finals thanks to an illegal stick? And a hat trick from a defenseman? (Desjardin) Who writes this stuff?
And it seemed that every single player on the squad did something meaningful to contribute to the run, whether it's scoring in OT or wiping out an icing by hustling to get to the puck or whatever. Everybody did SOMETHING.
It's just a little sad to see the guys getting older now. It seems like they should all stay as young as I remember them. Sadly, none of us are immune.
It has been a dry spell but I will never quit on the Canadiens. I live near Boston. Does anyone realise the broons have won fewer Stanley Cup final series than the Canadiens have lost?
WE’RE IN THE STANLEY CUP FINALS BABY!!!! PUMPED FOR TOMORROW!!! #GOHABSGO!!!
As a Nordiques fan, I felt like stopping the video at around the 9:30 mark. :)
I hope one day we get the rivalry back.
@@sweetswing1 The way the players were describing the atmosphere during the rivalry is why Quebec City needs a team back. You couldn't manufacture that kind of intensity and no rivalry has really matched it since.
@@pomerlain8924 Exactly, I'm a Habs fan and loved it. Was crazy intense.
Is it worse that they relocated and instantly won the Cup--with Roy in net? A bit of a cursed franchise. They had the best record in 1995 and were eliminated in the first round in part because of a wrongly disallowed goal against the Rangers.
@@stevencooke6451 Yep, the Kovalev "back injury" that stopped play.
I’ll never forget it!
That. Year. Was. Incredible
i remember whenever the Habs were behind, we would just hope the game goes into OT.
we knew #33 had their back.
Gary Lehman is TOTALLY correct ! You don't make use of a stick like this so deep into the game ! Vince Damphouse confirms it. Players carry a bunch of sticks and use the legal ones at the end of the game. It made history ! And yes mon Patrice "" Chiicks "" On vous oublira jamais !
It’s going to happen again in 2021. Montreal will win the cup. Their mindset is unstoppable.
I think Tampa has something to say about that
@@williamkanejr3233 There is no doubt Tampa and Vegas.. especially Tampa let’s face it they are the favorites by far… due to the fact they are way over the salary cap, they bought the best players. Most of them are Canadian as well. Seems to be the situation with all these western teams. Vegas on their debut season made it to the final. That’s never happening in the history of the sport. You have these financial powerhouses that buy success. So no competition there. BUT!!! The Canadians will be the Cinderella story of the season winning the Cup because the team has found the formula in the playoffs… play for the team with all year heart. And they have the best goalie in the league that performs at his best under pressure. If you want to win some cash bet on them to win the cup.
@@williamkanejr3233 Also watch out for Cole Caufield. The little American will be the hero of the playoffs. The natural skill of that kid is scary.
Crowds were on their feets since 1st period. What a night to remember if that game 5!
These are the best years of hockey, I miss it.
missed the playoffs and never heard who won till 3 days after it was over..I was in Somalia on HMCS Preserver so missed the last time my team won the cup
Love Jacques. Get well soon , coach!
Never disliking a player not liking him. The definition of a "players coach".
GO HABS!
Here's a good place to tell the story and more importantly keep the memory alive of my best friend Gregory Cabral. Late 80s while in GR 7-8 Greg got diagnosed with leukaemia. He battled it but in the summer of 92 it came back hard and then early October of the same year the doctors at SickKids hospital in Toronto granted him a Make-A-Wish foundation. His wish was to meet his idol and favourite hockey team, Patrick Roy and The Montreal Canadiens. Along with his father he was allowed to bring a friend, I was that friend. Oct 21 Greg and I while sitting in the lower reds at the Forum in Montreal watching our Habs beat the San Jose Sharks to find ourselves in the change room meeting Patty, Carbo, Muller and the rest of the boys and when this happening so fast blur was over.. We were flying back to Pearson the next day to get home to Brampton to drop me off so him and his father can get to the Blue Jays world series game that night. I never would have thought that would be the last time I saw my best friend as he died 9 days later October 31, 1992. And nothing will ever change my mind that the real Conn Smythe Trophy winner for the playoffs MVP that season was Greg Cabral from up above. RIP Gregie, not a day goes by when I don't think about you and don't worry, your Patrick Roy signed Koho goalie stick is in good hands.
Your best friend,
Johnny
