That Tampa-Columbus series was epic.

I feel like hockey is the only sport where this kind of thing can happen. I don't think you will ever see anything close to this in other sports, and we just had a similar upset this past year. This is why playoff hockey is the peak of all sport.
Unlike some other sports, if one hockey team is clearly more talented but the other team is clearly working harder, the harder working team will usually win.

Okay here is a true story John Tortorella who was the Tampa Bay Lightning coach at the time and 2003-2004 got the Tampa Bay Lightning to the Stanley Cup their first one ever
I'd like to listen to the uncensored version of his speech. Torts is always firey, and his speeches or pressers are often instant classics. I picked Tampa that year. The upset was unprecedented... until the Panthers upsetting the Bruins this year perhaps.

For 8 days in April he had a team that qualified for the playoffs the last day of the regular season and had them absolutely school arguably the greatest team of all time in 4 straight games.

You realize you're claiming it's the best performance in the league's history whilst having little to no knowledge about it ? So where does that claim even begins to make sense to you ? Do you understand what I meant ? Read sloooooowly pal, you've got this
This is some quality production work; professional level that was engaging to the end; and I’m still debating on that end if going to black-screen when,it did OR did it require a final wrap-up line or two..either would be great I think.
I'm honored as a hockey fan to have watched this as it went down, i will never forget that year as that year both confrence winners would lose pretty easily in the first round obviously as seen here the Lightning would lose in 4 to the Blue Jackets and the Flames would lose in 5 to the Avalanche, its also the same year of that infamous game 7 choke of the Vegas Golden Knights, that would also be the same year the team that was dead last in January would climb all the way back to win the Stanley Cup i will never forget the 2019 playoffs that was a wild year
I remember watching the 1st period of the 1st game. Tampa was leading 3-0. I thought it was done deal and shut the TV. Needless to say I was pretty surprised to find out what had happened.
Yeah that was great. It was fun this year too when Florida did something similar to Boston. There really is nothing better in sports than the Stanley Cup playoffs.
The blue jackets were a special team for a special coach in John Tortorella. Most teams aren’t willing to commit to his deal 100%, such as the Canucks. When it works, damn does it work good.
Loved watching this happen. Especially as a Florida panthers fan…never thought I’d experience the same moment or arguably a bigger one. End of the day hockey playoffs are amazing, insane and highly unpredictable.
As a lifelong Blue Jackets fan who has been there since 2000, and as a kid who grew up in Columbus, Ohio loving hockey when nobody else did, this was the defining moment. This was the moment that changed my hometown forever. I remember as a kid getting bullied in middle school by the only other hockey fan in my school district. He was a Penguins fan, and relentlessly made fun of me for liking the Jackets. This series happened my Junior year of College. Now when I look at my hometown it's a hockey hotbed, and even though the team sucks right now, no kid in Columbus will have the same feeling that I had of having to be bullied for being the only Jackets fan in school.
Torts is great always liked him But then this that sparked a Virginia cavaliers style redemption story Lightning won back to back cups, went to a 3rd final too Even got revenge along the way The jackets sweep of the lightning is probably one of the single most important series in nhl recent history
As someone who started paying attention to not just my team the year after this it is crazy to think this was even possible and that Panarin was on that team at that point lol
I’ve been a CBJ fan since the team was founded. Years and years of mediocrity and nothing to show for it. I cried tears of joy when they scored that open net in game 4. Watching this video makes my eyes well up just thinking about how much joy this brought me. We may never win the cup, but I will still cherish that moment as if we did.
After this series lost, I didnt go to a single home game or watch any game on tv. Only listened to Esposito on the radio. 3 finals and 2 cups later(also made it in the newspaper about my superstition) I’m glad this happened… haha
The last 3 teams to set (or tie) a new season wins record have all fallen short before the Stanely Cup final. I'd honestly be more nervous in the playoffs as a President's trophy winner than anything else.
Saying that the biggest upset in NHL history isn't the team setting a regular season record getting upset in the first round is a pretty bold statement. At least Boston made it to game 7.
My father is scaringly good at predicting games and series, the second David Savard scored, he just looked at me and said the jackets would win the series.
I love this story. There was no Presidents trophy curse. That was Torts! He had a lot to do with building that Tampa winning machine. He knew how to take it apart! It's useful in reminding new fans that there's really no such thing as a curse on the Presidents trophy. There's dormant talent all over the NHL, simply waiting for an opportunity. Coaches like Tortorella are worse than that supposed "curse"! Got to give props to Nick foligno for captaining that team. Poor Vassey. But hey, my team had an opportunity that year cuz Tampa was eliminated, and they blew it again st. Louis! Golden opportunity to steal a cup from Tampa thanks to Torts... And the Bruins blew it! He opened the door for the Bruins to walk right through and we tripped! My B's also did a version of this back in 1971, new coach Tom Johnson set a franchise record for most winning regular season. # 1 team, shoe-in for the cup. First round -Went down to the most miserable Habs team to squeak into the last wild-card spot 🙄 Then 48 years later, my team did it again! broke their own franchise record while setting the NHL record for most winning regular-season Went all in on the cup, then went down first round to the Florida Panthers! 😮 Shytt happens! But after the 1971 failure, 1972 the humiliated big bad Bruins, big ole chip on their collective shoulder, came out to play and got themselves a 1972 cup! 😆 It's okay that history repeats itself. For certain teams 🐻🏆 We just got to figure out a way to avoid the real curse -Torts.
Bob IS sole reason for both the Blue Jackets and Panthers went this far in the playoffs. You remove him from the equation and both teams don't go past 1st round.
I would argue this is what propelled Tampa to become so much greater and consistent year after year. Sometime you need these kinds of humiliation and lessons to become champions.. In some weird way, this was the best thing that happened for Tampa. You learn so much more about your team from the defeat than from victory.
Arguably the greatest moment in franchise history, yes it's not a Stanley Cup, yes we got knocked out the very next round. But the sheer improbability for the Jackets to not only win the series but SWEEP is incredible
Your always in it with torts since he was with Tampa he lived to be the underdog and his play style show it as well. Gritty dirty dump and chase play and getting the most of his players. Much love to torts and best of luck in Philly
I love looking at this in a phycological way….. you have the Tampa Bay lightning that cruised into the playoffs, they weren’t playing hard they weren’t fighting for wins. Then on the other side, you have Columbus, who fought for every inch to get into the playoffs and we’re playing probably the best hockey of their season. Simply put Tampa Bay not switch into that fight gear fast enough and ended up getting swept.
This was the peak of being a Blue Jackets fan. Maybe someday we'll get rid of Jarmo and actually put together a decent team, but until then we've got the memories of this playoff series to keep us warm.
Love how Bob is in net for the two biggest upsets in the last decade
That's cause Bob has ice in his veins. He may not practice the hardest in the nhl, he may not eat the best but when the pressure is at its highest Bob is not only unfazed but seems to answer and play even better. It's an intangible that most goalies don't have and it's not something you can teach.
