Top 10 Stanley Cup Celebrations

Sean Leahy at Puck Daddy gives his Top 10 Stanley Cup celebrations through the eyes of YouTube. You might be familiar with his #1 choice...

1. 1994 New York Rangers

It was the night "1940" ended as a cheer in arenas across the NHL. The Cup was in the building for Game 5, but had to be put on hold for two games, which set up an electric atmosphere for Game 7 in Madison Square Garden. After the Rangers won the final face-off, the image of Mark Messier jumping up and down like a little boy was engrained in the minds of New Yorker's forever. Just watching "The Captain" accept the Cup from Bettman, it's like he won it for the first time.

...no other Stanley Cup celebration could touch 1994.
