About this listen

June 19, 1999. Stanley Cup Finals, Game 6. Buffalo Sabres vs. Dallas Stars. Triple overtime. Brett Hull scores the goal that wins Dallas the Stanley Cup. One problem: his skate is in the crease. The refs wave it off, then they don't. The league changes its story. Buffalo never gets its answer.


This is the full story. How a small-market Sabres team led by Dominik Hasek made an improbable run to the Finals, the grueling six-game series, the controversial rule that should have nullified the goal, and the NHL's fumbled explanation that left an entire city believing they were robbed. We break down the play frame by frame, the rule as it was written, and why "No Goal" became a rallying cry that still echoes through Western New York.
