In 1993, the New York Islanders were up 3-2 in their first-round matchup against the Washington Capitals with game six being played on the Island. Ten minutes into the third period the Islanders went up 4-1 thanks to a beauty goal by Travis Green who raced down the wing and beat Beaupre five-hole.
Less than two minutes later, while the Isles faithful regaled the Capitals with "Na Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye" defenseman Dale Hunter tried to get the puck up to a forward but found only Pierre Turgeon on the forecheck.
