There’s been a lot to pull you off the couch and into an oh-my-god-did-you-just-see-that standing position these playoffs, but one of my favorites so far has been the playoff of relative geriatric Mark Recchi.

At the ripe young age of 42, Recchi still gives his all every shift and can still dole it out as good as he takes it. No time was that more prevalent than his Game 3 tête-à-tête with the Sabres’ Tim Kennedy (by no means a Goliath at 5-foot-9, but still, at 23, he’s almost half Recchi’s age) that led to Patrice Bergeron’s game-winner. That play distinctly and abruptly turned this series on its head, giving the B’s all the momentum.
