Bates Cairns After watching the blackhawks storm back in the 3rd period today to tie the series it reminded me of these moments.. i am 34 yrs old so i was too young to enjoy the cup run... i was at game 6 when cairns beat up corson and that was the loudest ive ever heard a building.. i was going nuts... watched these videos just now and it brought a tear to my eye ... how much i miss this... how long its been... how infrequent... i really hope that snowy turns this around next season... so we could have newer better quality youtube vids to enjoy like these 2... and to add something we need to bring back this celebratory horn/goal song |

I'm old enough to remember the real good times, no great. But it's humbling to be reminded that some of our fans' best memories are Cairns/Bates. Makes the Dynasty even more special. |

I'm serious. I've been a big fan since about '05 and that's the biggest on-ice thing since then. Off ice probably JT getting drafted. Oh wait a minute I was at Fight Night vs. Pit thats my best memory.

I miss watching 100 periods of hockey to see Lafontaine score in overtime... or Bossy destroy Vancouver or even Volek in OT. Keep your chins up like the Isles fans you are. We'll have new great things to remember.

You are indeed too young.......when I think of great Islander moments I think of Nystrom, Potvin..........more so than Cairns, Bates. But I would agree, those were great moments too. |

This post, along with all of the game 7 drama this season just serves to remind me of how much I miss playoff hockey. #1 moment is clearly Nystrom 7-11. |

I'm younger than MITB. My best memories are the 93 playoffs. Maybe if they had even made the playoffs in 91 or 92 I'd remember them as well Unfortunately I have to remember 94 as well. Could Hextall even give us half a chance to win in that series? I've said it numerous times, I never got to see an Islander raise the Cup live. At this point, I just want to see them win a playoff series again. |
