Fresh off a convincing victory over the Nordiques--a 3-0 shutout is about as convincing as it gets--the Vancouver Canucks returned to the Pacific Coliseum, to a crowd of approximately 13,932 screaming fans, for a game against the Winnipeg Jets. Though the Jets didn't have a good season, finishing dead last out of six teams in the Central division and an abysmal tenth place in the Western conference, they had a playoff-caliber forward line in Keith Tkachuk, Alexei Zhamnov, and future Hall of Famer Teemu Selänne (who was inducted in 2017), who combined for 74 goals in just 48 games. The only team to surpass that output was the Philadelphia Flyers, who won their division for the first time since 1987 (and qualified for the playoffs for the first time since 1989), and made it to the Eastern Conf. Finals before being eliminated in six games by the New Jersey Devils (who subsequently pulled off an incredible upset, sweeping the Presidents' Trophy-winning Detroit Red Wings in four games to win the first Stanley Cup in franchise history). The Flyers' collective, known affectionately, yet fearfully, as the "Legion of Doom," boasted the likes of John LeClair, Mikael Renberg, and another future Hall of Famer in Eric Lindros (who made it in 2016) and combined for a top-line total of 80 goals on the season. To be second only to the Flyers in such a meaningful statistical category was a small beacon of hope for Winnipeg, who qualified for the playoffs the following season (which turned out to be the last in Winnipeg before a relocation to Phoenix, Arizona) before being eliminated in the first round, in six games, by the Detroit Red Wings (who repeated as Presidents' Trophy winners, but again did not manage to capture the Cup). Though the Jets did manage to score twice on Kirk McLean, with Alexei and Selanne doing the honors, it was not enough to stop the Canucks, who led 4-1 after two periods before emerging victorious by a final score of 5-2. Kirk's 76 saves, of a possible 78, gave the old-school 'stand-up' goaltender a 97% success rate against the Jets' offense. The brothers Courtnall, Russ and Geoff, combined for two goals, three assists, five points, 16 shots on the goal, and one penalty (for Russ, who spent two minutes in the box). With the Jets having crashed and burned, much as their NFL counterparts did over the course of the 1994 and 1995 seasons (with Rich Kotite cementing himself in the latter season as one of the worst head coaches in pro football history), Vancouver next set their sights on the Toronto Maple Leafs. Though the Maple Leafs were one of the most storied franchises in the NHL, they had a rough season when 1994-95 came around. Fourth-place (1992-93) and third-place (1993-94) conference finishes were followed up by a fifth-place finish in the Western conference. For the first time in three seasons, they had a negative differential of goals scored to goals permitted. During the regular season, Toronto could never put together a winning streak longer than two wins in a row, and not a single player on the team managed to achieve a hat trick. Still, they had some solid players, including Swedish legend Mats Sundin (who made it to the Hall of Fame in 2012, and is one of the few players to achieve this who did not win a Stanley Cup in his professional career), who led the Maple Leafs in goals (23) and points (47) during the 1994-95 season. Sundin even scored the first goal of the game for the Maple Leafs. Another legend, and future Hall of Famer, in Doug Gilmour added yet another goal. Soon enough, the Maple Leafs found themselves with a 3-0 lead. However, there is no such thing as a 'safe lead' in hockey, and the Canucks battled all the way back to tie it at 3 apiece and force overtime. One can only presume another five minutes would have helped, as the two teams had only five to work with. The clincher never came, and the teams were left in the uncertainty and dread of a 3-3 deadlock. It took until 2:02 remained in the second period before the Canucks could get on the board, and even with all the momentum on their side going into OT, they were not able to finish the job. As such, the real stars of the game were not the offensive contributors, or the defensive masterminds, but the goaltenders. Kirk McLean minded his net with a master's precision, his 58 saves of a possible 61 giving him a 95% success rate against Toronto's offense. For his part, Felix Potvin showed cat-like reflexes too, with his 71 saves of a possible 74 giving him an equally superb success rate (literally equally; he also emerged with a 95% efficiency against Vancouver's offense). Gilmour finished with the aforementioned goal (and earned one point as a result), led Toronto in shots on the goal with 17 taken, and never went to the box. Given the indecisive nature of the previous encounter, it only seemed right for these two teams to face each other again. Once again, it was a battle to the finish, with both teams leading 3-3 late in the game before the Canucks came back to score two goals in a row (including an emptynetter that sealed Toronto's fate and thwarted any chance of a comeback). Kirk McLean looked truly exceptional once again, with his 72 saves of a possible 75 giving him a 96% success rate against Toronto's offense. Once again, the brothers Courtnall made for a truly dynamic combination, combining for four goals (and four points), 21 shots on the goal, and just two penalties (both sustained by Russ, who spent four minutes in the penalty box). The Canucks are currently making preparations to face the Tampa Bay Lightning in their next game. It seems like it should be genuinely winnable; the Lightning were playing in their third season in franchise history, and had yet to win more than 30 games in a season. After trading away Shawn Chambers and Denis Savard, who both went on to great playoff performances in 1995, they found themselves struggling offensively with the players they still had; their top man was Brian Bradley, who finished tied with Petr Klima for most goals by one player (13), and led outright in assists (27) and points (40). Numbers like that were not going to get it done, for a team that was so devoid of leadership that they still did not have a captain. Three seasons in, and they had no true captain. They had 'alternate' captains but no defacto leader. Even a baby's fart in the wind makes more noise than the Lightning had made to that point. And yet, in a bit of irony, the Lightning have won more Stanley Cups than the Florida Panthers. Go figure. (Then again, they've also been around for one more season, so there's that.) The day is winding down. In less than, or slightly more than, ten minutes, our 'night girl' is going to usher in a period of rest. I'm grateful to be able, at least for now, to account for my thoughts. She goes through hers, engaging in prolonged conversation which I can only presume is with her husband. I can tell when she gets emotional, because her voice gets so loud that I can hear it from my room. She also has a funny habit of blocking one of the doorways, literally pulling out a blue chair to sit at the end of the hall. She's the only CNA who does this, and it concerns me because in the event of an emergency, we need to be able to get out that door. Still, it's her business, and I needn't worry about it for now. A housemate shrieks excitedly, immersed yet again in the wonders of YouTube. I take it as a sort of silent reassurance, as though he were reading my mind and telling me--in his own unique way--to stay calm. Maybe I have been thinking too hard. I can save my hardest, heaviest thinking for when I really need it. Tomorrow will bring more opportunities. That is, if tomorrow comes. Yep, I'm hoping it does.
