Caps fan. I’ve only been around since 07 though so I’m going to pick something that’s stuck with me since it happened.

'08 playoffs - Round 1 - Game 7.

2nd Period. Capitals netminder Huet gets interfered with by the Flyers forward after he hits the Caps Dman onto Huet, pushing the goalie out of the crease. Half a second layer the puck is in the net. Washington goes onto lose in 2OT.

That was my first experience of #capspain and it’s stuck with me ever since.

Offending play is at 2:30

What about you? Buffalo fans, I think we know where this is going, same goes for Vegas fans (maybe?).

How and when did the officials hurt you?

    As a Sabres fan, there’s the very obvious one but I’m not so sure I’d go back on it. That Sabres team was dragged kicking and screaming to the finals by Hasek, he was just that good. I’m not super confident they win that series even if it was No Goal.

    On the other hand, I’ve talked before about something I would change. It doesn’t entirely fit this scenario, but the delay of game penalty taken by Campbell at the end of the 2006 ECF very likely cost the Sabres the Cup that year. I think they had a very good chance beating Edmonton that year. If I had my way, a puck going over the glass isn’t an automatic penalty and the Sabres make the final that year, and very possibly winning the Cup.
