I have a challenge for everyone on this thread:
You must name the 5 most clutch/greatest playoff games of all-time from your favorite team in the last 10 years.
And you must name the 5 most heartbreaking/disappointing playoff games of all-time from your favorite team in the last 10 years.

For me as a Canes fan it's:

Clutch:

2021 First Round Game 6 OT win
2021 First Round Game 5 OT win
2019 Second Round Games 3&4 wins

2019 Conference Finals Game 4 loss
2020 First Round Game 5 loss
2019 Conference Finals Game 3 loss
2021 First Round Games 3&4 2OT losses


for me it's:

Clutch:
2019 Game 1 - Mitch Marner Penalty Shot Goal
2021 Game 6 - TJ Brodie Tying Goal
2021 Game 4 - Jack Campbell Shutout
2017 Game 1 - Kasperi Kapanen 2OT Goal
2020 Qualifiers Game 4 Win
Ummmm. Thats it :I

Heartbreaking (Where do i begin)
Game 7 2013 vs Boston (Most epic collapse of all time)
Game 7 2018 vs Boston - Why them
Game 7 2019 vs Boston - Like Seriously? AGAIN they have to crush us?!?!
Game 7 2021 vs Montreal - Gosh-darn disafreakingpointing

Whoever comes out of this series is going to destroy the Habs


We already thought the Leafs and Jets would do that. I think they enjoy being massive underdogs. No pressure

Proof that it's a clown car division?

North Record vs every other division 0-0-0

Prove to me that it's a clown car division. There is no stats to back it up.

Clutch:
2019 Game 7 Vegas
- Oh I'll take the complaint of 4 PP goals on a tough call buuuuuuuuuuuuut 9.9/10 they call that call as it was such a odd/ unlucky play it woulda happened to any team anywhere eventually and caused a good rule.
And 4 PP goals can't be excused by a call. That was a magical come back even though it was due to a call. Definitely the best 10 minutes of hockey I've seen. I could feel the electricity and I'm literally in a different country than SJS. You gotta admit when Couture yells "THATS 1..THATS 1!" - it was like a movie.
PLUS A HUGE OT WINNER by Goody - the game had it all OT, flair and dramatics, huge comebacks (SJS 4, VGK ties it with little time left) and lots of goals and saves.


2016 Run - Just Martin Jones
Martin Jones literally carries, no drags the Sharks to the finals. But now he drags us to high picks smile
I got a 2016 Finals puck though soo thanks Marty I guess.

The rest were fun but and some other conference finals appearances but those standout. There's some other great runs but those standout.


Heartbreaking:
2016 Finals Pens - I LITERALLY have not watched the final 10 seconds, cup celly, anything. After the score read 10 seconds and I knew it was over I just turned off the TV and sat in the dark at like 1am (SJ was the home team), for a few just disappointed. Never seen Crosby lift that cup or any celebration.

2019 STL Blues WCF

2014 = "The San Jose Sharks became the fourth team in Stanley Cup playoff history to lose a series after holding a 3–0 lead; as the Los Angeles Kings came back to win the series in game seven of the First Round on April 30, 2014"

2012 Round 1 Game 7: Henrique 2OT vs FLorida
2018 Round 1: Noesen Slapshot vs Tampa

Dissapointing

You know the most brutal thing here is that that's also his most recent playoff goal.
