“The National Hockey League (NHL) will unveil its new Stanley Cup Playoffs campaign tomorrow, March 20 during the CBC’s Hockey Night in Canada. The campaign reminds viewers that “History will be made” during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Focusing on the iconic moments in Stanley Cup Playoffs history that every fan remembers, the campaign begs the question; “if it wasn’t for these iconic moments, what would we remember?” This question is tailored to six historic moments: Bobby Orr taking flight after his infamous Stanley Cup winning goal in 1970, Mark Messier delivering on his “guarantee” and lifting the Stanley Cup in 1994, Mario Lemieux’s famous defensemen-splitting goal in 1991, Ray Bourque capturing the elusive championship in his final NHL game in 2001, Patrick Roy’s veteran-like performance during his 1986 rookie year, and Steve Yzerman’s famous double-overtime goal against St. Louis in 1996.

“Last Friday, April 30th, was the 35th anniversary of the Fall of Saigon and the end of the Vietnam War, and last Tuesday, May 4th, was the 40th anniversary of the shooting of protesting students at Kent State University. The Vietnam War and America’s involvement in it affected the lives of millions for well over a decade, exacting a massive human cost with millions of deaths and countless injuries – both physical and mental – that plague many of those involved to this day. United States military involvement and troop strength grew rapidly after 1964 – at its highest level in 1968, with over 500,000 troops on the ground. The Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. now bears the engraved names of 58,267 of those troops. It’s nearly impossible to encapsulate an event of such scale in a handful of photographs, but here, 35 years after the end of the conflict, is my attempt.”
