Brett Hull’s controversial triple-overtime goal for the 1999 Stanley Cup deserves a deep rewind
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 05. 2019
- In game six of the 1999 Stanley Cup Finals, the Buffalo Sabres hosted the Dallas Stars and no one was aware how long of a night they were in for, or how controversial the finish would be. Both sides were seeking their franchise's first Stanley Cup. Both sides had one of the league's best goaltenders in their net. But only one side had Brett Hull.
He was the final piece in a massive makeover the Stars had gone through since their arrival in Dallas a few seasons earlier. Along with Mike Modano, Jere Lehtinen, and Joe Nieuwendyk, Hull was in good company when it came to scoring goals. But tonight, and this whole series, it was tougher sledding thanks to Dominik Hasek. That isn't to say it was all smooth sailing for the Dominator; Hasek just wouldn't be rattled regardless of the weapons he faced. Outside of game two, he was giving up less than two goals per game. The trouble was his offense faced just as tough of a test when trying to get pucks past Belfour.
So in triple-overtime, still tied at 1-1, Hull gave us a moment in history that is still held onto by both franchises - just for polar opposite reasons.

It's still crazy to think about the fact that Belfour and Hasek were both drafted by the Blackhawks in consecutive drafts. Most teams go multiple decades searching for a hall of fame caliber franchise transforming type goalie. Some teams have never had one. They got two within the span of 12 months.
Belfour wasn't even drafted, he was a walk on as a free agent. He was also the reason Hasek left Chicago, they chose him over Hasek when the two started fighting over playing time.

Ah, who am I kidding? I'm a Sabres and Bills fan. The only thing I have are painful memories.
Sabre Mike Thank you!

Only a Buffalo team could have a player quit at halftime.
feel your pain brother!
3 of which are because of Dallas.

More hockey, more hockey, more hockey
Back when ESPN and The Deuce were good. "Hull shot... Score! Score! Score! Brett Hull! The Dallas Stars have won the Stanley Cup! Deep in the heart of Texas, the stars are shining!"
I miss Gary Thorne and Bill Clement and watching NHL2Night, it all seems like yesterday.
Kids see Ghosts sometimes, Kids See Ghosts sometimes
Hasek and Hull would later be on the Detroit team in 2002 that won another cup
that might be the greatest hockey team of all time in my opinion
@@vinceventura4453 I think that team had 11 hall of famers on it. That beats the 85 Oilers
@@vinceventura4453 it was the best team ever. How could it not be. ?
So would half, okay not half but a good bit of the team when Dallas won the cup would go with Hull including Derian Hatcher.
It is the best team ever. Absolute juggernaut of a team... And if Datsyuk goes to the HoF that will mean 12 of them on 1 team. That's insane.
Finally, more hockey videos!
The one they absolutely need to do is Bobby Orr's OT Stanley Cup winner in 1970
Or a video about the slow death of the enforcer role
I’ve been trying to get them to rewind game 7 of the 94 ECF btw the Rangers and Devils
Shlick Smit That's another good one
Andre Hamilton I would watch that
Hasek is easily one of the best netminders ever. Dude was an absolute monster.
Ed Belfour and Dominik Hasek, man, some team would have to have been REALLY dumb to let either or both of those goalies leave.
He hated San Jose made it clear in the press he didn’t want to be there and played poorly for us
The only reason hockey fans remember this series is because of the ending. Not because of the excellent hockey that happened in the six games as a whole or the remarkable goaltending between Hasek and Belfour.
Its all about Hull's skate. Sigh
“Welcome to a moment in history”. Gives me chills every time no matter what it is. Love the hockey content. Keep it up.
The overhead view at 12:31 is really the only 10 seconds of this entire video you need to see. Hull kicks the puck to his stick while everything is outside the crease. In the act of kicking it, his left toe enters the crease. As he's in possession of the puck throughout that play, by the rule in place at the time, the goal counts.
Yeah but let's blame the NHL for making this rule so stupidly confusing for that moment. Go Stars!
Exactly. Yet Sabres fans won't get it and they keep crying about it.

Yes but it also teaches you to keep low expectations in life
Props on the humboldt shirt.

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about it!
Austin Schwartz is he from Humboldt, Mn I grew up in Lancaster not far away.
@@ericbnielsen Nah the shirts for a Jr. A hockey team in Humboldt, Sask. that got nearly wiped out when their bus was t boned by a semi one night. 16 were killed and 13 were injured, and of those 13, only 3 or 4 could still play.
The single best hockey game I have ever watched. Nearly 5 hours of on the edge of your seat, physical hockey with amazing goaltending on both ends.
I was 19, and that was the first time I had ever stayed up that late to watch a hockey game. It was epic!
You forgot to mention Hull had blown his MCL and could barely skate, but told Ken Hitchcock that he was there if he needed him. Great coaching move to not only to activate him, but use him. Especially when he did. Hull was straight phenomenal this shift. Stole two passes, won a board battle, stopped a clearing attempt, lifted a guys stick to get Modano enough space to collect the puck, turn then shoot and was Johnny on the spot for the rebound.
Great timing after that Denver-Portland game lol
AHUMAN PERSON it really is 😂😂😂
@@showtimesportsmedia6906 I had to look that up just to understand your comment. That is an interesting coincidence.
They need to do a Rewinder on the Easter Epic. Not only was it four overtimes, but it was game seven, the only game of the night, and the first time the Capitals blew a 3-1 series lead.
Another one they can do is Game 3 of the 2002 Stanley Cup Finals. It was triple overtime, like this game, it featured multiple Hall of Famers on the Detroit Red Wings (two of which were involved in the "No Goal" game...you know which ones), and it was the first Stanley Cup Finals game played in North Carolina.
Or how about Game 1 of the 1990 Stanley Cup Finals? Longest game in Stanley Cup Finals history and a rematch of the 1988 Finals between the Edmonton Oilers (now without Wayne Gretzky) and the Boston Bruins. There was also a brief power failure that was similar to the power failure that happened on Boston Garden two years earlier.
I’m confused can someone explain this
@@Name-qo6gz The Denver-Portland game went to four overtimes.

I remember watching this game! What a wild ride! At one point I didn’t know if I was watching it or dreaming it 🤣 what an endurance test.
I was pissed
As a Sabres fan, this has to be one of the best representations of this incident I've ever seen.
Thank you SB Nation for actually doing some NHL-related videos. ESPN avoids hockey like the plague for some reason.

@@michaelabraham8873 haha[laughter redacted]
This was a VERY well put together video!
It’s about time I’ve been requesting this for months
>"Traded for veteran centers Carbonneau and Nieuwendyk"
They sent their recent 1st-round draftee to Calgary for Nieuwendyk, some kid named Jarome Iginla... might've been worth mentioning offhand >_>
>"Traded away the Captain's brother for Sergei Zubov"
The captain's brother being the unremarkable Kevin Hatcher, Zubov being the greatest Russian D-man of all time, with all due respect to Fetisov and Gonchar. Led the '94 Rangers in scoring in his 1st full season in the league and carried Dallas's breakout/transition for a decade. They cratered after he went back to Russia and spent years trying to replace him before they finally struck gold w/ Klingberg. Hatcher/Zubov was the best trade in franchise history (which includes Lehtonen for Vishnevskiy and the Seguin trade.)
>"When Nieuwendyk hurt his knee in the opening round"
Well, when Bryan Marchment's goonery hurt Nieuwendyk's knee. We (rightly) complain about guys like Ryan Reaves being in the league but the guys like Marchment, that didn't even pretend to have talent and just looked to injure someone every night, well, I'm glad the league has outgrown that extreme mold of enforcer.
>Hasek
The best goalie to ever play the game, as far as this Stars fan is concerned. Still the only goalie to manage back-to-back seasons with a .930+ Sv%, and he did in back-to-back-to-BACK years, as part of a stretch of reaching that mark 5 seasons out of 6. Nothing against Roy or Brodeur, they're both phenomenal and influential goalies, but Roy had multiple HoFers in front of him for most of his career and Brodeur of course had the trap; despite playing more games than Hasek, Brodeur faced far fewer shots against. Not to mention Scott Stevens keeping his crease shiny and clean and Niedermayer keeping the puck 200 feet away from Brodeur whenever he was on the ice.
Hasek was amazing & a ton of fun to watch.
We really need more hockey rewinds. Nice to see stuff other than basketball.
Very refreshing, almost thought he might of given up doing hockey videos. Glad to have ya back
YES! I’ve been asking for this video for months.
Another hockey rewinder: the Broad Street Bully era Philadelphia Flyers being the one NHL team to beat the USSR in the 1976 Super Series
Question is, can you pick out a single moment from that game?
This game is remembered for "No Goal". The Super Series game is remembered as the game the USSR walked out and also got their asses kicked. But, that's the whole game.
@@PatrickKetza Ed Van Impe body checking Valeri Kharlamov into unconsciousness
@Jake Shattuck FivePointsVid very recently did a video about the game. Maybe that one?
I remember watching that game (yes, I'm that old) and the announcer saying "they're going home". LOL That's how the Flyers played against everyone. The Soviets had never seen anything like it. That was the only game where I ever cheered for the Flyers.
Nobody:
*soviets: **_aight imma head out_*
Bringing back memories. I first started watching hockey regularly in 2000. So I really remember some of these names. Hasek (“Dominator”), Hull, Peca, Nieuwendyk, Belfour (“Eddie the Eagle”), Modano.
finally some more hockey content, also as a video editor I'm intrigued to know what this excellent analogue video filter is. It's great
Love the rewind stuff! Great content...
I thought they would show Lindy Ruff's response at the Sabres parade: "no goal".
Oh I noticed the “Gritty” plug in with the Philly article. You guys are good 👌🏽
Superb video, editing was 10/10
Great video once again! More hockey videos please!
I never understood the creases shape until now. I thought it was odd it wasn’t a rectangle or semi circle and was a combination of both.
Could yall do a collapse of 80 Nottingham Forest team, they won back to back european cups and then became the first european cup winner to be relegated into the 3rd division of their domestic league.
Think it would have been helpful if you had highlighted a mid-season memo sent out by the league in 1999 season (pretty similar to the memo you highlighted from earlier years). A goal had been disallowed due to the "in the crease" rule during a regular season game. In the play, a skater broke away for an uncontested 1-on-1 opportunity with the goalie, the skater coming in from wide. He cleanly carried the puck through the crease and by the time he shot, the puck was out of the crease but one of his skates was still in the crease.
The goal was disallowed and pretty much everyone said that's stupid. So the league clarified that if the skater controlled the puck in the crease, then maintained control OUT of the crease, a shot would be legal even if his skate was still in the crease. They essentially changed the interpretation of the rule midway through the season.
Cannot remember who the skater was but I have feeling it was a Coyote player whose goal was disallowed. Honestly, there was zero controversial about the goal, if everyone had understood the rule as modified. ESPN and the entire NHL, as usual, did a poor job on every front. The NHL, at a minimum, should have reviewed the goal and then explained why it counted. Had they done that I doubt "no goal" would be something you still hear.
YES I've been waiting for this remember watching it on tv back then
At 8:55 that was not Nieuwendyk that scored. That was Jere Lehtinen.
Kai Lehtinen I’m sorry about that mistake, but thanks for flagging it. I added a correction to the description
@@willbuikema1099 Oh no worries, just wanted to give one of the best two way forwards in NHL history a little love lol. Keep up the great hockey content Will!
Thanks@@kailehtinen5972! You're absolutely right, I think I'll be cringing for a while about not doing him justice. Really appreciate your support, and we've got more NHL videos coming this week
Are you a relative?
@@ChimpFromSpace No it's just one of those strange coincidences really lol. Wish i could lay claim to being related
There's NO CONTROVERSY. Hull had control of the puck and kicked it into the crease before scoring; he was in control of the puck. His skate entered the crease after he kicked the puck to his stick. GOOD GOAL.
Whatever helps you sleep at night. Enjoy that eternal asterisk.
I don't watch hockey but it does look like Hull leaves the crease after the rebound, the puck kicks off his skate and he re-enters the crease for the score. I don't know if that makes it legal under the rules but that's how it looks.
Very true
Thank God that this NARRATOR is back!! IDK his name, but this guy is the best voice your channel has!! Please keep doing these videos guy!!
Thank you so much for doing a hockey rewinder!
One of the major reasons for the new crease rule was Grant Fuhr. In the 96 playoffs, Nick Kypreos crashed the crease and destroyed Fuhr's knee. That offseason, the NHL began to make the crease rules.
And now that blowhard is yapping on national television during intermissions. SMH
According to the video, the league started looking into changes starting in 1991. I'm sure there were lots of goalies who got run over in the eighties...
The 2010 Stanley Cup winning overtime goal is one of the most awesome "How they got there" for both the Hawks and the Flyers. The flyers depended on a back up to get there, and even for them to get into the playoffs was insane because it came down to the last game of the season against the Rangers. And whoever won that game would gain the last spot in the playoffs. It went into a shootout which is insane. and so so much more
P a i n f u l 🔵🔴⚪️
That was the best playoffs ever
Unfortunately the refs ruined the moment with their endless reviews of the play
Fantastic work on this video!!
I only put it on to see if you were going to explain why it shouldn’t have counted but you did your research! Well done!
It is too bad most people will always think this goal shouldn’t have counted but the rules were followed. Once Hull kicks the puck to his stick, his left foot does enter the crease before the puck. This is where most people think the infraction is. The difference between Hull and the countless goals that were called back all season for random players toes in the crease when a goal was scored, is that Hull has possession of the puck and made a controlled move to get the puck to his stick. Case closed!
Also congrats on not butchering any of the names and giving the goalies proper credit! 👍🏼
You gave us everything you had in stl!! I'm so happy when you won ur cups in dallas and detroit!!!!💯💯
The Humbolt shirt, respect
Do the 2010 flyers-bruins game 7. Flyers overcame a 3-0 game deficit and a 3-0 score deficit in game 7
That was insane ugh wouldve only been perfect if we finished with a SC finals win but oh well...still epic 2010
If we’re doing reverse sweeps the Kings reverse sweep of the Sharks into a Stanley cup is a better choice.

Brett Hull you are the man.... incredible goal scorer
I've been waiting for this one. GO STARS
The Minnesota North Stars were NEVER known as the Minnesota Stars. They changed their look... yes... but the name didn't change.
As a Stars fan I was wondering that. I had never heard that before so my ears perked up when he said it. I frankly wasn't even aware they had rebranded while in MN.
I still consider the Texas team as our team and our cup as giving it away. I remember watching the Stars winning the cup in disbelief. I still have to work on forgiving Norm Green for selling the team. I wondered if he ever stepped back in Minnesota.
Erik Woods they removed “North” from their jerseys their last two seasons in Minnesota so were essentially the Stars from a branding perspective.

I remember that game. The problem I had with it wasn't the alleged memo that no one knew about, but the fact that all season long goals had been waved off because of "toe in the crease" where the offending player wasn't impeding the goalie. Seems like we saw loads of goals waved off all year because of that rule. No one knew that the goals would count if it was the same puckhandler the whole time.
