"Accidently meeting Teemu Selanne" I got a job at a hockey rink near Cleveland when I was 20 ( I did not know anything about hockey yet, since than I have become a huge fan, im 24 now) but Teemu Selanne came to our rink to watch his son play and I remember talking to this dude, telling him which rink he'd be on and just had like 5 min conversation with him about the tourney. And I go back into the Zamboni room and everyone and my boss was like "holy shit dude!! Thats crazy, you just met Teemu Salanne" I just said uhm idk who that is? They all got so mad at me haha in a joking manner tho. I went home and looked him up and was mind blown haha He was extremely nice and just seemed like an all around good person. But I did feel dumb as fuck for not knowing who he was at the time.

[@MIKERUPTION]

That Selanne and Giguere moment was magical with My Hero playing in the background! Couldn't have scripted it better. I miss seeing them play for my Ducks.

[@TheFlamingPike]

There are two moments I'd add to that compilation: 1) Sidney Crosby caught on camera shaking hands with Martin St-Louis after his mother passed away. I thought that was super classy. A bit less classy for whoever hid in the corner to film it though. 2) It's just a picture, so maybe it didn't fit, but it tells so much: A bloodied Maurice Richard shaking hands with black-eyed Bruins goaltender Jim Henry after the Canadiens eliminated the Bruins in the '52 playoffs. Henry seemed to bow down to Richard in a sign of utmost respect. In my opinion, the most badass photo in sports history. Most people simply refer to it as "The Handshake".

[@ronniegladue1863]

I will never forget those years, especially that 05-06 playoff run. Magical. I was living in Calgary at the time and, despite being bitter rivals of the Flames, the Oilers had so much support in the city. They had the support of the entire nation from coast to coast. They were going to win it, how could they not after what they had been through? Then Rollie got injured. And the refs were trash.
