In 1985 as a 15 year old kid living just outside of Edmonton, my parents moved to Calgary. Heartbreak for a huge Oilers fan, but hey, I was heading to Calgary with 2 cups in my back pocket as a fan. Fast forward to the playoffs next year, ready to continue our dynasty and being a little cocky. Needless to say, the Steve Smith own goal haunts me to this day and is the reason I have never bet on a hockey game since.

Me being a 9-year-old kid when Mario Lemieux announced his retirement in 1997. I had seen incredible goals, his triumphant victory of cancer and of course 2 Stanley cups, but the day he said he was retiring in the prime of his career (hindsight2/20 of course) that was the day of my hockey heartbreak. Honorable mentioned to the 1993 Islanders and 2010 Canadiens playoff series.

I'm a Sens fan, so the heartbreak is continual, perpetual, ubiquitous.

A young David Poile never winning a Stanley Cup. Malkin never being The Man.

I was only 2 when Gretzky high-sticked Gilmour, so 2013 Leafs/Boston game 7.

Poile has to settle for amateur indoor track star. Not a bad fallback, no?

Yep, add to that "No Goal" and "Homerun Throwback" to name a few.

Yes. But the dreams young David Poile had running around the Spectrum in 1966 were all but crushed. Especially now that the Flyers have a "No BS attitude."

Your sorrow is my happiest hockey memory. It is a zero sum game, friend.
