The last time the Kings made the SCFinals...

1st yr in office for Bill Clinton...

1st yr as commish for Gary "ButtHole" Bettman...

Price of Gasoline was only $1.11 a gallon...

Billboard # 1 song was "That's the way love goes" - Janet Jackson

# 1 movie at the boxoffice was - Cliffhanger

"Cheers" series finale aired on May 20th, 1993

... and on a personal note... I was living with a sweet little Filipino chick on the other side of the country with my son (not from her), who was only 6 yrs old then...

And of course, you felt that the Kings didn't get a HUGE break from the (NHL) refs who decided not to call penalty on #99 in the conference finals against the Maple Leafs - when Gretzky did a little plastic surgery on Dougie's face.  Oh well, at least you're consistently blind...

Get OFF MY NUTS dude... I was in surgery with some problems of my own back then and don't remember much of those playoffs. Go find a friend elsewhere I'm not interested.

I was 19 yrs younger than I am now and just about that time I discovered the beauty and distinction of asian women ...... Yes, 1993 was a very good year...................... Money and box were abundant to the tune of decadence............... LOL................

I'm sure that every equipment manager in the NHL was sent a memo from thier owners after that incident...

I was living in the northeast part of Tennessee working at my first job out of college. It was the only place I ever lived where I couldn't play.

Me and a guy from New York used to go down to Knoxville to see the Knoxville Cherokees play in the ECHL. I even saw Manome Raiome play a game there for Atlanta. (Probably butchered the spelling).

The best thing about Tennessee was leaving it which I did in late 1993.
