SUMMER SERIES: Doc Emrick’s 10-best NJD calls — #8 — ‘And Now Hauled Out For Lemieux...Yes! Yes!’
Perhaps the best first-round series the Devils have ever played in. It was 1994. The game before this one was a 4-OT thrilled in Buffalo.
And two nights later, the Devils bounced back brilliantly to beat Buffalo to go on to Round 2 against the Boston Bruins.
The “Yes, Yes!” is again Peter McNab, who had a real rough time holding his emotions in check back then.
One last thing to note about this Game 7 — the crowd was particularly juiced up this night. Two games earlier, Game No. 5, the fans were horrendously quiet — and someone, it may have been Chris Russo, called the fans out for being “lethargic.”
They weren’t this night, for sure.
