Le but de Nicklas Lidstrom de Center Ice sur Dan Cloutier dans les séries éliminatoires de 2002 n’était pas seulement un coup de chance, c’est devenu un moment déterminant dans la série Red Wings de Vancouver Canucks – Detroit et dans la carrière des deux joueurs. Dans la prochaine édition de notre série d’essais vidéo, nous décomposons l’objectif et examinons les circonstances qui ont conduit à l’arrivée de Cloutier à Vancouver. 💻 Site Web: https://canucksarmy.com 🐦 Suivez sur Twitter: https://twitter.com/canucksarmy 📲 Suivez sur Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/canucksarmydotcom/ 👍 comme sur Facebook: https://wwwacebook.com/canucksarmy/ 📺 a abonné sur YouTube By Jacob.com/canucksarmy/ 📺 Abondance sur YouTube By JacoBed.com/canucksarm/ 📺 Abranchez-vous sur YouTube BYTOBOY.com/canucksarmy/ 📺 Abranchez-vous sur YouTube BYTOBOY.com/canucksarm/ Lazare écrit par Clarke Corsan & Jacob Lazare Narrated by Irfaan Gaffar édité par ATSU Nickel #canucks #redwings #nhl #StanleyCupplayOffs #vancouver #Detroit

Fun fact: D. Sedin’s first NHL goal was on Cloutier.
Cloutier was my favourite goalie as a kid lol Can tell I was a homer 😂 Became a Tendy because of him and Luongo
Ah, Clouts. The beach ball man. I was a big Dan Cloutier guy. Not because he was the greatest goalie ever, but because he gave zero fucks and fought everyone. He did everything but make the saves he could have made lol.
If anyone has a Dan Cloutier jersey sized medium, hmu lol.
I watched this whole series, that goal single handedly sank the Canucks. They were playing a great job as the underdog until that center ice dud went in.
Clouts doesn't deserve the reputation many people gave him. The Canucks were a playoff team when Clouts was the starter, and he had three consecutive 30+ win seasons. (this was before shootouts and loser points) Yeah, the centre ice goal was a heartbreaker, but as I reminded my friends at the time, the Red Wings went on to win the Stanley Cup, so let's not pretend like they couldn't take the series back or they were 'mentally beaten'. That was a good team. As for Clouts, he's not Roberto Luongo, but he is still one of the better goalies the Canucks have had. 2004 was a greater tragedy than 2002 in my opinion – the Canucks likely would have won that series against Calgary had Clouts not been injured. I know a bunch of people will crap on me for my opinion, but the fact of the matter is the guy was a decent goalie. Only Demko, Luongo, Brodeur and McLean have more career wins in a Canucks uni than Clouts < he's still top 5 in franchise history 20 years after leaving the team. How he left was really sad too, Rob Niedermayer all but ended his career. You would think he would have been treated a little better considering all of the crappy goaltending they had after McLean.
The Canucks are cursed, will never win the Cup
And then the exact same thing happened 6 years later to Nashville.
Even if he made that save, l still think the Wings would won the series but in game 7.
A thing that gets forgotten is that VAN finished one point back of the 6th/7th seed Kings and Coyotes.
Had VAN gotten one more win, they face San Jose in a 3 vs 6 matchup which would have been more winnable
Heck a tie gets them a weaker Colorado team than the one a lesser VAN team played pretty decently despite an 01 first round sweep
Becoming an NHL goaltender and not a MMA legend.
there, mystery solved.
I need to refill the salt shaker to fill my open wound before watching this video. Cloutier had zero positional play, other than being somewhere near the net, but had the reflexes of a cat. If his reflexes were off just a tiny bit though he leaked like a sieve. When Vancouver hired him as their goaltending coach I couldn't believe it, since he'd be teaching goalies to be out of position and just rely on reflexes to sell a huge save that should have been routine. For a while he was in a tandem with Alex Auld, who had perfect positional play and the reflexes of a rock. Between Auld and Cloutier they had the pieces of a complete goalie.
Beach Ball Dan!
Really? You had to bring up this memory 😢
It was a hard goal to give up, but many, many, many goalies in the playoffs have let in similar ones and gone on to win the series. Not mentioned in your video is that the Canucks managed a grand total of 3 goals in games three, four, and five combined. That's why they were down in the series more than Cloutier's giving up one stinker.
Itt was a true momentum shift
