Exclusive: History Will Be Made - "Comeback"

POSTED: Wednesday, March 23, 2011, 1:53 PM

Here's something you can't find anywhere else:

The NHL has provided the Daily News with an exclusive peek at the league's newest addition to the "History Will Be Made" commercial series, which will begin airing on Thursday night to promote the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

This one, of course, re-lives last May's historic comeback against the Boston Bruins.

Enjoy.

In other Flyers news, the team announced the signing of forward Matt Read to a free-agent contract that will begin at the start of next season.

Reid, 24, was the team captain this year as a senior at Bemidji State University, a member of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association. He posted 22 goals and 13 assists for 35 points in 37 games, leading the team in goals and finishing second in points. He is 5-10 and 185 pounds.

The native of Ilderton, Ontario, appeared in 147 games at Bemijdi, scoring 65 goals and 78 assists, all school records.

So I guess the NHL should have pretended like someone else scored the game winning goal? You not understanding the importance of that goal is an epic fail on your part. Regardless of what team he now plays for.

Tonka - Gagne was a big part of that comeback, so what exactly is the "fail"?

Tonka - you're completely missing the point of the video and of life, most likely. And don't minimize the meaning of the word epic, use it appropriately.

That memory will never get old. Always great to see Gagne in the Orange and Black.

crkreg...Your video was better than this. Loved the play backward. Always good to see Gagne despite his trade, class guy. Speaking of trades, someone remind me why we traded Mike Knuble?? I always liked his play, sort of a watered-down John LeClair. He always comes back to haunt us when we play Washington.
