For those that missed it the first time ... Dvorak relives his rookie season and first Stanley Cup run ...

"We were sitting in the locker room before the game. There were only a few of us there. It was me, Scott and a couple of other guys working on our sticks," Dvorak said. "Suddenly, a big rat ran into the locker room. Scott was working on his stick, and it was just a few feet away from him, so he fired it against the wall and the rat died.

"There was a big blood mark on the wall and someone went and circled it with a Sharpie and put the date on it."

Mellanby scored two goals that night. Panthers goaltender John Vanbiesbrouck called it a "Rat trick" following the game.

Two nights later, two rubber rats were thrown on the ice following a Panthers goal and the trend continued throughout the season.

They had a deal with an exterminator company. It was pretty funny at the time!
