Gary Thorne and Bill Clement were ESPN's best play-by-play duo ever.

Forget ESPN. They were the best hockey broadcasters that ever existed.

Fun fact: 1995 was the only year in which Lord Stanley's Cup was not awarded on ESPN or ABC during the years specified (FOX had the deciding game that year).

Mike Emrick on the call in that game. He'd give many more iconic calls on NBC.

Younger devils fans may be shocked to see their team not only appear in a few of these, but winning them too. It’s really sad how that franchise deteriorated after 2012

That & seeing Steve Yzerman handing the Stanley Cup to Vladimir Konstantinov, who was in a wheelchair after a terrible car accident.

My grandma got John Vanbiesbrouck to autograph a picture of him looking incredibly dejected with the cup winning puck in the net and Sakic celebrating behind him.

We are back next year man can't wait for this.

That sure was an unusual camera angle along the near side boards at the Montreal Forum.

1993 last time the cup went North of the Border…incredible

Dave trying to pass the cup and his teammates saying skate with it

99,00,01 were the years if you were the def champion you were stripped of from that title.

Ahhhhhh memories

1995 the Stanley Cup was won on Fox

Yes, I mentioned that in the description. I still included it because it was still in the time period where ESPN had NHL rights and I didn't want to skip it. ESPN also aired games 2 and 3 of that series.

The NHL On ESPN Plus The NHL On ABC Forever Etched It's Rightful Place In History With The Marriage Between The NHL And Television In The 1990s And 2000s

2001 champs is still the greatest moment in NHL history

It’s sad that we never got to hear Gary Thorne say “The Philadelphia Flyers have won the Stanley cup!!!!”
