Theoren Fleury - 1991 Playoffs

I coudn't find much on Theo for this series, so here is the report of the series from the 1992 NHL Yearbook: Some called it the best series in recent memory for sustained entertainment, for rapid pace and for brilliant play as the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames hooked up in another compelling Battle of Alberta. It was a series that featured outstanding goaltending and punishing hitting, while played at full speed. After the Oilers had taken a 3-1 series lead, the battle wasn't resolved until the seventh minute of overtime in the seventh game when Esa Tikkanen capped an Oiler rally (they trailed 3-0 in the first period) to give the defending champuns a 5-4 overitme victory and the series ... Theo scored a HUGE overtime goal in game six in which he came in alone and beat Grant Fuhr, his most famous goal mainly because of that sweet celebration.
