JCRGraphix Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 1999-2000 (Write-up by @BostonStrong13) The 1999-00 year saw a lot of standing changes, and some big names got picked up out of free agency. Some of the new expansion teams tried to make a name for themselves, Hollywood picking up key defender Ryan Smyth and Mannheim getting Manny Fernandez to backstop the Motors to an unsuccessful season. In other news, the St. Petersburg Horsemen traded Felix Potvin to the Phoenix Cougars for their second round pick in 2000 and first round in 2001. The playoffs featured some good rivalries, in the European Eastern, the #1 seed Stars battled the #4 Angels in a back and forth series. Once Nikolai Khabibulin went down with a upper-body injury in Game 3, the Angels strengthened their offense. The Angels won in 6. The Horsemen and Bisons had a tough series, but the Horsemen pulled out in 6. The Winged Hussars of Warsaw took the WHL world to surprise, finishing first in the West. That success didn't last too long, getting swept by the Helsinki Icebreakers. The Dutchmen and Crown faced off. During the season, these 2 teams had a line brawl after a cheap shot to Selanne. The Crown put that hit to the side during the series, and won in 5. The Horsemen and the Angels faced off, with the Horsemen rallying down 2-0, Nabokov went down after getting shoved into the crossbar. His status remained unknown. Backup Curtis Joseph went in, and he helped the Horsemen win the next 3. In game 6, the Angels prevailed and won 6-2. The Horsemen were destined to win game 7. without Nabokov for the rest of this series and next if they made it, the Horsemen prevailed and won the game 6-5. The Crown took on the Icebreakers. The Icebreakers haven't lost a playoff game this year, but the Crown wanted to stop that. The London Crown won again in 7 games. In North America, the Bucks faced off against the Cardinals in a series that went in the history books. With the Bucks going up 3-0 in game 3, with a 3-0 series lead, the Cardinals came back, won game 4, 5, 6, and 7. Boston vs. Montreal, Boston hasn't had much success in the postseason, while Montreal always has. Boston put their best lineup forth, and beat Montreal in 6 games. The Oakland Americans played the Blazers, and the Lakers played St. Louis. St. Louis, prone to win, swept the Lakers, and the Americans fought hard and beat the Blazers in 7. The Americans and Clydesdales played to go to the Conference Final, and the Irish and Cardinals will too. The Eastern teams coming with Cinderella stories, and the Western teams had no background. St. Louis brought the Americans to 7, but lost 6-3. The Irish and Cardinals had played 4 tough games. Boston winning 3 of them in OT and the 4th 3-1 in regulation. <This is where I take over> In the European Conference Finals, the St Petersburg Horsemen put on an excellent display of fundamentally sound hockey, but after a Todd Bertuzzi cheap shot in game 4 on Evgeni Nabokov, the Horsemen had to turn to backup Jimmy Waite for the remainder of the series. Waite managed to hold his own in games 5 and 6, but was shaky in game 7 and was yanked in favor of Robbie Tallas after giving up 3 quick goals. The Horsemen were unable to overcome the deficit, and the ondon Crown earned their first shot at the title. In the North American Conference Finals, the past 10 years of bad luck seemed to be back for the Boston Irish as they lost game 1 in overtime after a fluky goal got past Ed Belfour from the opposite blue line. The very religious and superstitious Irish owner then had a local priest come in and bless the Irish players' equipment. The Irish went on to win the next game by a score of 7-0. Taking this as a sign, the priest was brought on as part-time assistant equipment manager. This seemed to be lucky for the Irish as they went on to win the series to earn their first trip to the Global Cup Finals after years of disappointment in the playoffs. The Global Cup Finals were a wild and violent affair with game 2 erupting into a line brawl after Ed Belfour hacked Todd Bertuzzi in the groin as he was screening Belfour. Belfour was ejected from the game along with Bertuzzi, so the Crown got to light up Irish backup Kevin Hodson with 4 goals. The Irish also dropped game 3 in overtime, but won the next three to earn their first Global Cup. During the offseason, some major moves were made. After publicly berating the Montreal Quebecois coaching staff, Patrick Roy was traded to the Minsk Bisons for Roman Turek, Marian Hossa, and the Bisons' 1st draft picks of 2000 and 2001. The St. Petersburg Horsemen addressed their lack of goaltending depth by signing free agent Curtis Joseph while other prominent free agents Brian Boucher, Jose Theodore, Manny Fernandez, and Markus Naslund went to Houston, Riga, Mannheim, and Nizhny Novgorod respectively. Regular Season Standings: European Conference: Eastern Division: 1. Moscow Stars 2. St. Petersburg Horsemen 3. Minsk Bisons 4. Kiev Angels 5. Prague Golems 6. Riga Griffins 7. Nizhny Novgorod Comets Western Division: 1. Warsaw Winged Hussars 2. London Crown 3. Amsterdam Dutchmen 4. Helsinki Icebreakers 5. Belgrade Wolves 6. Stockholm Norsemen 7. Copenhagen Hammer 8. Mannheim Motors North American Conference: Eastern Division: 1. Toronto Bucks 2. Boston Irish 3. Montreal Quebecois 4. Chicago Cardinals 5. Washington Eagles 6. Buffalo Thunder 7. Brooklyn Emperors Western Division: 1. Oakland Americans 2. Winnipeg Lakers 3. St. Louis Clydesdales 4. Saskatoon Blazers 5. Vancouver Spirits 6. Phoenix Cougars 7. Houston Stealth 8. Hollywood Dragons I will personally handle the 2000-01 season, and then it's on to @Jacobseye for the 2001-02 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
