So I made a comment in my thoughts from last night about the Leafs honouring their 1992-93 team and it seems a few Leaf fans got upset (edit: as it turns out it was more of a reunion in Sundin's box rather than an officially sanctioned club event but it did generate some attention both on the broadcast and in the paper today). To show that I have nothing against remembering good times and old friends coming together, I put together a song for Leaf fans.
The question for today is what was your favorite memory from the 93 playoff run? And for fans of other teams, when were your "Glory Days" and what is your fondest memory from the 90s?
Enjoy!

PS I'm not sure if Nik the Stick was actually in the building. Let me know if you saw him. Also, the Kerry Fraser thing is just a joke. I know Leaf fans have moved on since then and forgiven him..

"Glory Days"
I had a friend was a little hockey player
back in '93
He could score the biggest goals
Until he lost his spleen
Saw him the other night at the ACC
He was in box with Burns and Berg
He was inside sitting down having a few drinks
but all Nik kept saying was "Unbelievable"
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of Borchevsky's eye
Glory days, glory days
Well then there's Wendel, he lives up the block
back in 93 he could turn all the boy's heads
Sometimes on a Saturday I'll stop by
and watch The Passion Returns wishing Kerry Fraser was dead
He and my boy Dougie well they both retired
I guess it's few years gone by now
We just sit around talking about the old times,
he says when he feels like crying
he starts laughing thinking about that wraparound goal
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days made Foligno jump so high
Glory days, glory days
Now I think I'm going down to the ACC tonight
and I'm going to drink till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about 1993
but I probably will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
a little of the glory of, well time slips away
and leaves you with Belak and Kilger and
great stories of glory days
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days Anderson sure could fly
Glory days, glory days
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days Potvin was quite a guy
Glory days, glory days
