	How can an expert (self-claimed), by any means, forget the
Oilers and the Blacks Hawks JUST happen to be the victims of the
two greatest comebacks in Stanley Cup history? The Oilers blew
a 5-0 lead and lost 5-6 to the Kings in 1982. And just a few weeks
ago, the Hawks were leading the North Stars 4-0 but beaten 4-5 in
overtime. And now, you think a 3-goal lead IS safe? Remember,
we are talking about the Norris and Smythe teams, not YOUR NY Islanders!
