2000 Eastern Conference Finals, Game 7. The very mention of the game creates an uneasy feeling in the minds of Flyers’ fans.
While the Oilers have fallen on hard times, 'The Kid Line' has been integral in helping the club's poor PP of last year improve immensely. Right now, it is the only successful aspect in Edmonton's game.
Those risks made this organization make the playoffs for 11 consecutive seasons and 12 out of their last 13 before missing last year's postseason.
Will David Backes be named team captain for the Blues and will he be given a new contract? He is a free agent next summer.
