If you ever wanted to go to a Game 7 and experience the rush and excitement of the momentous occasion you really should buy a ticket. Otherwise here is footage from one lucky individual with the bright idea to capture the night on his handy GoPro.
A tip of the hat to Puck Daddy's Greg Wyshynski for spotting the one video that captures highlights of Game 7 between the LA Kings and San Jose Sharks right down to the postgame celebration cordial.
The video was posted to YouTube by fan Eric Locko who watched his Kings take down the Sharks at Staples Center 2 1 Tuesday night to advance one big step closer to their second consecutive Stanley Cup Final.
Of course when you take on this mammoth undertaking there are bound to be some moments we could do without. On one hand perhaps Locko should have edited Los Angeles traffic out of the mix because it is just as frustrating through the lens of a GoPro.
On the other hand I am glad he didn't forget to leave that thing on when he relieved himself of all the domestic beers he may have imbibed because that could have been misconstrued.
Locko did go above and beyond to cut this thing together including NBC footage from the game to give us a glimpse of the exact goals that led to high five melees.
I am guessing he left out the expletives that tend to fly when you remember the arm and leg you have to give concession stand workers for a measly hot dog.
It's a good thing the Kings managed to take the series because this video could have had a far different ending...that of a sad fan drinking away his sorrows in a jersey drenched with tears.
