However, the CBC also does amazing post Cup montages too. The one after that Game 7 featuring the Oilers run playing to "Come Down" by Bush was one of the best I've ever seen. But, I can't find it on Youtube.<br /><br />Maybe if the Leafs made the playoffs once in a while, CBC could devote their fantastic talent to an intro of our own.shanerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11768430265547859112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518202653898886981.post-50257252282400478722009-06-06T09:12:29.612-04:002009-06-06T09:12:29.612-04:00@Anonymous...
