16 seconds left and Patrik Stephan creates a play that should become part of every hockey highlight reel that will be shown for about 100 years

Unreal ending to Stars/Oilers game

For those who haven't seen it.

The Oil blew a 4-1 lead and should have lost it in regulation.....

[kidcolin]

wow. I mean... wow. That's absurd. It's not even like he botched an open net shot off the post or anything. He didn't even shoot it.

[SL__72]

Wow!

[JordanIB]

Did the puck roll on him or something as he tried the poke it in? Or was he just trying to be a good sport or something?

[Green Kool Aid]

Wow.

If you freezed time while the Dallas guy was on the breakaway, and were to lay odds on the Oilers tying the game up, I wonder what they would have been.

This is one of the most improbable things to ever happen in sports.

Why couldn't this happen in a Game 7?

[kidcolin]

cuz Canada would be so excited they'd take over the world.

Considering I had a bet on the Oilers to win in regulation and OT, I loved watching that happen live. I was just about to flip the channel....hahaha

damn Oilers still lost in OT, so the reg bet pushed and the other lost

I was watching it at home live and the TV replays showed that just when he decided to shoot, the puck hit a rut in the ice and jumped as his stick slid underneath.
