A moment, and a game, that for as long as I live, will be etched into my soul.

Cut the excruciating goalless tension of game 5. Easily the loudest I’ve ever cheered for a goal in my living room. Voice was done for the rest of the night right then and there and there were still many screams to be scrum! GKG!

I was in the Shake Shack at NYNY for that goal. The place was PACKED to the gills. Behind me were a couple that clearly didn’t know what was happening. I think the fact it was the middle of June in Vegas and every screen in the city had the game on was a shock to them.
“What’s going on?”
“We’re playing Florida for the Stanley Cup!”
“Where are they playing?”
“HERE”
“What happens if you win tonight?”
“We win it all!”
“WHAT?!?”
That night was a core memory getting unlocked. I’ll never forget the chanting in Toshiba Plaza as the clock ticked down in the last seconds.
Followed by the loudest crowd noise I’ve ever experienced. In an instant, the 50.000 or whatever people in the Plaza erupted like a boiling kettle of gold. Drinks went flying. People (me, I was people) were crying. It was insane. Viva Las Vegas blasted from every corner of the strip. And that energy stuck around for MONTHS in Vegas.
