THE STORY
In Game 6 of the 1993 Western Conference Final on May 27, the Los Angeles Kings' Wayne Gretzky high-sticked Toronto Maple Leafs' Doug Gilmour in overtime, drawing blood. Referee Kerry Fraser did not call a penalty, and Gretzky scored the game-winning goal moments later, tying the series at 3-3. The Kings won Game 7, advancing to the Stanley Cup Final.
