Game 3 of the 2002 Stanley Cup Finals. I took my daughter to the game in Raleigh. Series was tied at 1-1. My Canes were huge underdogs to the Red Wings. The game was amazing and we held the lead until the Wings pulled Hasel and Brett Hull scored in the last minute. Then we had overtime. Actually three intense overtimes! Then, Igor Larionov beat the Canes and took our spirit. I knew the series was over. And it was.
Fortunately, we got another chance four years later, and we beat the Oilers in a tight Game 7 that was also a classic. There's nothing better than good playoff hockey!
