Watching the '03 final SSP vs Cloquet. SSP had that potent first line that was dominant, but Cloquet had Johanna Ellison in goal and a great box D. SSP would win in OT on a weird slapper that got deflected off a stick I believe in the air and over Ellison.
They were part of that 86 game win streak. I was lucky enough to see them play at Polar, who had Allie Thunstrom. She played for the Whitecaps. Super fast. Just a lot of fun see her turn on her motor. Anyway at Polar SSP outshot NSP by about 25, but Thunstrom I'm pretty sure had the hat trick for NSP. It was 3-3 with seconds left and SSP did a rush to which the wing threw out a centering pass. Still my favorite redirect of all-time because it was too much in front of the center and she more or less dived for it with her stick and directed it between the NSP's goalies legs. About all the time that was left was to drop the puck. I'm fairly certain Thunstrom had just tied it a matter of seconds before. I'm guessing that was '03 regular season.
2006 EP might have been better. Stronger overall lines maybe. 30-0 if I'm correct.
