Kasper hasn't been medically cleared to play for Austria at Worlds, apparently he's been on crutches since the season ended with a knee injury https://hockey-news.info/nhl-export-kasper-ich-muss-im-moment-mit-kruecken-gehen/

I figured something was up but I wonder how long he was pushing through that

I don’t know what the numbers and colors mean but the words are really something.

Some good stuff in here on Finnie (and an interesting aside on posts hit by him, Larkin and DBC)

i get that the goal was great, but that's the year they set the points record and were supposed to roll in the playoffs.  instead they almost lost to st louis and then got whooped by colorado in 6.

not a great memory for me.

Biggest legacy of the goal was the Avs-Wings rivalry. If the Wings had lost to their Blues there would have been no Claude Lemieux-Kris Draper incident.

The goal also eliminated any chance of Yzerman being traded.
