I hate the Islanders but was so glad they won this series. The year prior the Penguins beat the top-seeded Rangers thanks to a fluky Francis goal, and Pittsburgh was acting cocky as hell all over the ice. They thought after 92 they'd be the Oilers of the 90s and win a bunch more Cups. But this series humbled them and basically put an end to any more Cups for Lemieux and company. And in 94 the Rangers finally got their Cup. 😁
And the mystique of the Isles having Pens number in the playoffs continues, hoping the '21 version can overcome the game 1 loss and break this NY curse
Commentator 37:55 “First person who knew he (Kevin Steven’s) was in serious trouble was Mario” no shit I think everyone knew that when a hockey player smashes his head against the ice they’re in serious trouble.
Rangers destroyed this same Islanders team the following season in the opening round. I don't know how the Penguins ever lost to these scrubs. But I was thrilled that they did because I fucking hated the Penguins and still do. I was rooting for the Islanders this year (2021) to beat them too.
This series really ripped my heart out because the 93 team had a good chance to three-peat, and Kevin Stevens suffered severe facial injuries which ruined his career. Had one more decent year then became addicted to pain killers (among other things) and became a journeyman. Islanders were playoff poison this was the third time they beat Pens by one goal in a winner take all game. It was also the last year I had season tickets as we couldn’t afford them and kids at the same time.
Man, that goof of a commentator, Lange should be thrown in a zoo!
His job as a commentator is to describe the action, which he does, well enough. But when Pittsburg scores he takes away some of the shine from the players and takes it for himself.
That's just not professional and it takes away from the amazing action we've just seen.
The guy would make a better wrestling commentator!
I actually used to love his calls, when I was 7 or 8 years old.
Put him in a video game! I'm not saying he doesn't have talent but it's not suited for professional sports.
Watched game 7 as a kid, and was blown away as the islanders won in OT, amazing series…93 was the last year of true hockey, as they changed the division names in the next year ..

They need to bring back these CCM and KOHO 6200 series jerseys. The shit they wear now is ass.
What a great series, brutal what happened to Stevens, he was never the same after that.
Imagine Pittsburgh vs Montreal in the conference finals that year. Mario vs Roy
No 3 cups for you Mario sorry ! Lmao
the game was so dirty back then
Eat the ice Stevens … night night
Thank you so much for having all these posted!
That Ferraro breakaway was absolutely filthy.
Major Healy? Ray Ferraro 20? 11 32 der dritte ?
Pens got stuck in regular season mode and the Islanders played like their very lives depended upon it.
If Pierre Turgeon avoided that cross-check and stayed healthy, he might have been able to lead the Islanders past the Canadiens.

penguins should have should have won this series

Roberto Blewoffgo brought me here. Sure, it was in 2016, but I just realized that he blew the series against New York.
Back when the NHL was a mans game.
David Voleck ! 🏒

I could listen to Gary Thorne and Bill Clement calling games all day!

History always repeats itself. The penguins can't even beat them in a playoff series now
Barasso. USELESS BUM
Loved when NHL Network ran these great series many moons ago. Wish they would do these great series again.

27:15 Samuelsson running Green into the boards from behind. Typical of him. League should’ve gotten rid of him, cheap shot artist.
One of the best series I ever watched. On the edge of my seat from start to finish. Isles!

I've got to say it…
I know who wins, you probably know who wins but there has to be some viewers who did not know, back when this program originally aired…
SPOILERS NHL network!
Spoilers. Lol
But honestly, I loved this channel, back when it debuted and this was my favorite show.
Thanks for the upload!!
You Rock!!
I think there should be a statue, outside the Bell Center in
Montreal……for Glenn Healy!!
I remember exactly where I was, when this game's OT took place!
I was on a city bus, siting behind the driver. He was listening on a small radio.
That was the first time I hugged a complete stranger!! Lol
Merci beaucoup, les Islanders 😉
Grossly underrated playoff series. Its one of the greatest series yet hardly spoken about.
Watched game 7 as a kid, and was blown away as the islanders won in OT, amazing series…93 was the last year of true hockey, as they changed the division names in the next year ..
This is when the NHL was man’s game boys!
I never knew Ron Frances played for Pittsburgh, seriously!
