I remember watching this and losing my mind. Now I’m tearing up listening to Bob Cole call this goal.

I’ll never forget watching that. I was asking myself “is he going to shoot it from there?” He did. Absolute bomb.
Fun fact, Giordano got his first NHL goal in the same game and also got to have a pretty good look at the game winner.

He got the pop twice as he scored earlier in the game but was ruled an assist as it was tipped or deflected.

I was at this game. I’ll never forget how loud it was after that unforgettable moment and standing for another 15 minutes going bonkers after the 3 stars were named. Man, nobody could blast it like Mats.

Goated leafs goal, was playing mini sticks in my buddy’s basement I remember we both jumped and screamed when it happened. Goals like this don’t happen anymore slap shot from the blue line… like are you kidding me ?!

There was something about Mats that just oozed leadership. Forever be my captain

My favourite moment as a leaf fan. You can’t write it better than this.

One of my fave moments.
OT winner at home for goal #500 on hockey night in Canada as called by Bob Cole, does it get any better?

It’s crazy to see how the game has changed, the clapper is a lost art.
I miss this version of hockey

Remember this as a kid. Done playing a hockey game at the rink, come home, dad makes home made pizza, watch the leafs on a Saturday night and see this. Was there anything better than that?

This was my mothers 50th birthday. She was so mad that we were all glued to the game at the restaraunt

Overtime. Shorthanded. To complete the hat trick.
