Tonight’s highlight: Andrew Brunette Game 7 OT, Wild upset Avs (Roy last game)
2003 first round. Colorado was the 3 seed in the West, made the Conference Finals the year before and were Cup champs the year before that. Perennial Cup contenders since Roy had arrived 7 years earlier (they had failed to win at least 2 playoff series per year just once before this). This was just the 3rd season for the Minnesota Wild, first ever playoff appearance. The Avs had gone up 3 games to 1, but Minnesota won both Game 6 and Game 7 in OT. This was Patrick Roy’s last NHL game before retiring.
