I’ll never forget that game. I was in 8th grade, living in NH, and almost lost my close friend that week. My step dad went to bed when it hit 4-1, completely defeated. Me, only knowing Boston success growing up in the 2000’s, had a little flame of hope lit as they battled back. Just like 28-3 later confirmed, it’s never over until it’s over. Absolutely love seeing this story back.

This video was great and this game everything from Jack Edwards saying "unless, they suffer a colossal collapse, they are going to eliminate the boston bruins" then that exactly happening is just amazing. Whenever I re watch this game or highlights from this game I get chills every time. Hockey truly is a amazing sport. (love the channel)

I was only 11 when we moved to Toronto late in 1967. My new best friend was a rabid Leafs fan when nose-bleed tickets were only $2. The following spring the first two Leafs/Bruins games were a combined 17-0. Pretty sad when a 12 year old realizes this is hopeless. There is no Santa Claus, no Easter Bunny and the Leafs will NEVER get past the second round.

[@Minamakhlouf]

This game definitely went on to haunt Toronto's collective memory for years to come. Sometimes, I wonder if the subsequent game 7 collapses in the years to come were influenced by the memory of this game. I mean if you look at the playoff series that followed, the Leafs have never won a game 7 in a series. When they made it out of the first round last year, they finished off Tampa Bay in 6 games. I wonder what kind of team Toronto would become if in an alternative universe, they had won that game 7 against Boston.

[@StressfulGengar]

This loss started the era of darkness. Their team threw away good players for nothing during that period following

[@Minamakhlouf]

@@StressfulGengar Damn, that is such a good point! It was at that point that Leafs embraced the rebuild and it was directly responsible for the Core 4 that we have today. We drafted Nylander in 2014, Marner in 2015 and super-tanked for Matthews in 2016.

[@VeechMobil]

I was there with my son then a sophomore in high school. It was a school night and with 11 minutes to go in the game I wanted to get a jump on the crowd and head home to western mass. They Bs scored to make it 4-2, I looked at my son and said “its to little to late for a comeback let’s go home” he looked at me and said no dad I want to stay. Several times over the last 8 to 10 minutes of the game I said let’s go now, I kept getting the same response no let’s stay. With the goalie pulled the Bs scored the first of two and I said to myself could we be watching history being made and then came the game tying goal with under a minute. What’s going on here! We were on level 9 and everyone was jumping and hugging one another, people who I didn’t know it was pure pandemonium. We all know what happened next, the game went to OT and Patrice did the magical thing and won the game. The level of excitement knowing we just witnessed the greatest playoff comeback in the history of the NHL live together as father and son will always go down as one of the most special moments in our lives that we will share forever. To the members of that team thank you for a lifetime memory! To all those dads out there that may want to go home when it looks bleak for your team, listen to your kid and stick it out you never know what magic can happen.

[@jake3920]

As a bruins fan this has to be my favorite game of hockey I have ever witnessed. Our neighbors came over and were celebrating the leaf's win, my dad already turned the TV off... and then my brother says it is 3-4 and the rollercoaster of emotions that went down in that garage I will never forget.

I'm not a Leafs or Bruins fan, but I remember this game like it was yesterday. I was watching at a bar with my GF, and when the Leafs made it 3-1 she said "Let's go home. Game's over, right?" And I said "Nah - game's not over yet." Then they made it 4-1, and we repeated that same exchange, and I explained that it's never over until it's over (especially in hockey), that a comeback was unlikely but still possible. And then the Bruins' incredible comeback unfolded. I felt so awful for Leafs fans. Anyway, my GF's takeaway from this game was that hockey teams regularly come back from 2-goal or 3-goal deficits in the 3rd period, and she was always disappointed and confused when it did not happen.

I'm not really a Leafs fans except in the playoffs (I admit my main team is the Senators as I started watching sports during the Sens golden age of the 2000's) BUT I still have ptsd of the 2013 meltdown. Also, as mad and shocked I was about the Leafs blowing it on the other hand, as someone who LOVES the city of Boston and it's sports teams, I was also happy to see the Bruins move on as I believed a cup run for the Bruins would be great for the city so so after the Boston Marathon Bombing. The Bruins failed but the Red Soxs won the World Series months later

I was at the game sitting up in the promenade on level 9 way up as high up as you can sit.

Well things really changed and next thing we knew it was a tie game going into OT, and when the game was tied the garden literally shook and then it shook again when the Bergeron scored the OT winner. It was surreal, one of the best moments of my life. I’m so happy my dad told my uncle let’s stay till the end of the game, because him and I would never leave games early growing up.

We both taught there in 2011 when the Bruins won, so I got to live through his joy, lol. Then this game. We were texting in the middle of class. He was congratulating me and I, being a Leafs fan, was just nervous. Excited, but nervous. The B's had our number in the regular season for so long. Could this be, not only a playoff win, but against Boston? I saw a bit of the comeback. Lucic's goal. I saw him scream at the bench and I knew. They tied it, the bell rang, a new class shuffled in and I was away from my computer for a second. Came back, sat down to watch and within seconds Bergeron won it. I X'd the screen out and immediately went back to teaching like nothing happened. In truth, I was a bit dead inside. I got a bit of retribution, though. We had a sick ball hockey league in Seoul back then and my team ended up beating that same buddy's team, in OT, for our silly league championship.

The burn was so bad, that playoff games to this day don't feel the same. I dont let myself get excited. I still watch, but im completely emotionally detached. It sucks but its the only way i can watch without losing my mind. The leafs have to power to heal that wound. I only need 1 stanley cup before i go to the grave, but it seems like they aren't that keen on doing me any favours :/

Carlton the Bear ripped up one on these posters? I'll take your word for it. I've lived in Toronto on & off for 40 years and have seldom seen such sore losers. The whole world was with Boston except for one idiot in a bear costume. That's life in Toronto.

[@grumben123]

You might be right. I did a web search and the closest thing I came up with was the bruins bear ripping up a Toronto Stronger poster. Strange the way memory works, or doesn’t.

​@grumben123 I mean, it still feels a little tasteless to take a slogan coined after a terrorist attack and say "Yes but Toronto stronger" even if the mascot didn't actually rip up a Boston Strong poster. I'd probably be pissed just at that were I a Bostonian at the time haha

[@dicksonfranssen]

@grumben123 @tglake2894 It's more than tasteless that Toronto stole the slogan torn up or not. The whole world was watching the next week hoping to catch those two morons. We lived in downtown Toronto then which for tax purposes is often used as a New York backdrop. It's embarrassing watching movies and picking out Toronto landmarks. There's even a Tribeca condo because someone ran out of names on a Friday afternoon. Why tourists come here is beyond me. You go up the CN tower once, look around and you're done. No Fenway, one museum, one dirty harbor plus the world's worst airport. "Toronto Strong" my butt!

Never seen my dad more nervous to then more ecstatic in such a short time

[@thomashart9290]

Watched this as a kid and it gave me genuine trauma that makes it hard for me watch close sports matches that I'm invested in

[@richardaakjar7386]

As a Bruins fan I didn’t even watch the rest of the third period after the Leafs made it 4-1. Imagine my surprise when I checked in about an hour later

[@Jinzle]

I will never NOT remember this game like it was yesterday, still gives me chills to this day

[@miguelh4750]

As a Habs fan, public enemy #1 vs. #2 was a joy to watch.

[@HeritageWealthPlanning]

Reminds me of the 2008 patriots Super Bowl loss to the giants. All these years later still can’t watch those highlights

[@PatFrenchLeafsFan1]

Haven't been this depressed since Ted Danson said his emotional "I'm sorry! We're closed!" line from the Cheers finale. That game happened during the show's 20th anniversary of its final episode.

[@johnvanderschaaf617]

Anyone watching this before game 7 tonight?

[@ReefahCheef]

Love me some bruins history! Thanks!

[@thegreatmrt]

I remember watching this on tv live in disbelief 😂 i didnt like or hate either team. But my god the collapse was unbelievable

[@anthonyjohnston1618]

that Fransen slapper top shelf was nutssss

[@MarkPentler]

It was around 3 or 4am in the U.K. by the end. Watched the whole thing. Disbelief. Utter disbelief.

[@welderteach]

I remember it well! What a awesome story
