The Vancouver Canucks are a professional ice hockey team based in Vancouver. The Canucks compete in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a member of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference, and play their home games at Rogers Arena. Rick Tocchet is the head coach, Jim Rutherford serves as the president of hockey operations, and Patrik Allvin serves as the general manager. They won three division titles as a member of the Smythe Division from 1974 to 1993, and seven titles as a member of the Northwest Division from 1998 to 2013. The Canucks, along with the Sabres, are the two oldest teams to have never won the Stanley Cup.. In 1994, the Canucks made their second trip to the Stanley Cup Finals, entering the playoffs as the seventh seed in the renamed Western Conference. Despite underachieving in the regular season (their points total decreased by 16 from the previous year, although they finished second in the newly renamed Pacific Division), the Canucks played well in the playoffs and embarked on another unexpected run. Opening the playoffs with a close first-round series against the Calgary Flames, Vancouver rallied from a three-games-to-one deficit to win the series in seven contests. Games 5 through 7 were all won in overtime with goals from Geoff Courtnall, Trevor Linden, and Pavel Bure, respectively. The deciding seventh game featured two of the most recognizable and celebrated plays in Canucks history. With the game tied 3–3 in the first overtime, goaltender Kirk McLean made what became known thereafter as "The Save", sliding across the crease feet-first and stacking his pads on the goal line to stop Robert Reichel on a one-timer pass from Theoren Fleury. The following period, Pavel Bure received a breakaway pass from defenceman Jeff Brown before deking Calgary goaltender Mike Vernon to score and win the series. Fifteen years later, Bure's goal and McLean's save were ranked first and second in a Vancouver Sun article listing the "40 most memorable moments in team history." Following their victory over the Flames, the Canucks then upset both the Dallas Stars and Toronto Maple Leafs (both in five games) en route to the franchise's second Stanley Cup Finals appearance. Forward Greg Adams sent the Canucks into the Finals with a double-overtime goal against Maple Leafs goaltender Felix Potvin in Game 5. Staging the second coast-to-coast Finals in league history, the Canucks were matched against the Presidents' Trophy-winning New York Rangers. Vancouver achieved victory in Game 1 by a score of 3–2 in overtime, largely due to a 52-save performance by goaltender McLean. After losing the next 3 games, the Canucks won the next two to force a seventh game at Madison Square Garden on June 14, 1994. Despite a two-goal effort (one on a shorthanded breakaway) from Linden (who was playing with cracked ribs), Vancouver lost the game by a 3–2 score. The Canucks' efforts to tie the game included a post hit by forward Nathan LaFayette with just over a minute remaining in regulation. The loss was followed by a riot in Downtown Vancouver, which resulted in property damage, injuries and arrests. Two days after the riots, the team held a rally at BC Place attended by 45,000 fans, who congratulated the team for their effort. With a young core that included Linden, Bure and McLean still in their 20s after the 1994 playoffs, the Canucks appeared poised to remain contenders in the league. However, the team failed to record a winning season in the six years following their Stanley Cup Finals appearance. Prior to the lockout-shortened 1994–95 season, Quinn stepped down as head coach to focus on his managerial duties and was replaced by Rick Ley; Vancouver finished with a .500 record that year. Their elimination from the 1995 Stanley Cup playoffs in Game 4 of the second round marked the Canucks' last game played at the Pacific Coliseum, as the team moved into the new General Motors Place (since renamed Rogers Arena), a new $160 million arena situated in Downtown Vancouver, the following season.

Born in Munich, Beckenbauer moved from SC Munich 1906 to FC Bayern at the age of 13 and made his mark on the team as a young player, which was promoted to the Bundesliga in 1965. Over time, he matured to become captain and won the European Cup three times in a row with FCB, the German championship four times, the DFB Cup four times and the World Cup and European Cup Winners' Cup once each. He scored 74 goals in 582 games. In 1977, he moved to Cosmos New York, where he celebrated three US championships alongside Pelé. He ended his career at Hamburger SV in 1982 - he also became champion once again with the Hanseatic team. He captained the German national team to the title in the 1974 World Cup final against the Netherlands in his home city of Munich and also won the 1972 European Championship. In total, he played 103 times for the DFB team, scoring 14 goals. Beckenbauer was named European Footballer of the Year in 1972 and 1976 and was also named German Footballer of the Year four times. After his active career, he led FC Bayern as coach to the German championship in 1994 and the only UEFA Cup win in 1996. The members also elected him Vice-President in 1991 and he served as President of the club from 1994 to 2009. Under team manager Beckenbauer, the DFB team celebrated the World Cup title in 1990. In 1986, the national team was only stopped by Argentina in the World Cup final. He was also the decisive force in bringing the 2006 World Cup to Germany. The DFB's honorary captain was named Germany's footballer of the century in 2000. ► Wanna see more of Musiala, Müller, Davies & Co.?

Franz Beckenbauer ist tot. Die größte deutsche Fußball-Legende starb am Sonntag im Alter von 78 Jahren, wie seine Familie am Montag mitteilte. Auch weltweit gehörte Beckenbauer zu den Allergrößten im Fußball, er wurde Weltmeister als Spieler und Trainer, holte die WM 2006 nach Deutschland. Er war die viel gerühmte Lichtgestalt. Beckenbauer kam als Junioren-Spieler zum FC Bayern und stieg schnell zum Leistungsträger bei den Münchnern auf. Der Bub aus dem Stadtteil Giesing holte unter anderem vier nationale Meistertitel, wurde dreimal Sieger im Europapokal der Landesmeister und Weltpokalsieger. Mit seiner Eleganz und Leichtigkeit auf dem Spielfeld definierte er die Rolle des Liberos neu und krönte seine Karriere mit dem Gewinn der Heim-Weltmeisterschaft 1974. Zwei Jahre zuvor führte er bereits die deutsche EM-Siegermannschaft an. Nach einigen Jahren in den USA bei Cosmos New York, wo er mit Pelé in einem legendären Team spielte, kehrte Beckenbauer nach Deutschland zurück und gewann mit dem Hamburger SV 1982 noch einen Meistertitel. Nach dem Vorrunden-Aus bei der EM 1984 wurde er beim DFB auch ohne Trainerschein Teamchef und führte die Nationalmannschaft gleich ins WM-Finale 1986 gegen Argentinien (2:3). Vier Jahre später gelang mit dem WM-Triumph von Rom die Revanche gegen Diego Maradona & Co. Beckenbauer trat zurück - nicht ohne seinem Nachfolger Berti Vogts mit der Vorgabe der Unbesiegbarkeit eine schwere Hypothek mit auf den Weg zu geben. Als Trainer kehrte Beckenbauer noch zum FC Bayern zurück, als seine Münchner Mitte der 1990er-Jahre kriselten. Sein Charisma und seinen polyglotten Glanz nutzte der DFB bei der WM-Bewerbung für 2006. Das Sommermärchen wurde Beckenbauers Glanzstück als Funktionär - und zugleich für ihn persönlich schwierig. Es gab Vorwürfe, als dubiose Zahlungen publik wurden. Ehemalige deutsche Spitzenpolitiker nahmen Beckenbauer im Skandal um die WM 2006 in Schutz. Bei Beckenbauers imposantem Lebenswerk sorgen die Anschuldigungen um die WM-Vergabe mit dubiosen Millionenzahlungen für einen späten Beigeschmack. Im Sommer 2019 trennte die Schweizer Bundesanwaltschaft das Verfahren wegen des Verdachts des Betrugs gegen ihn von dem der Mitbeschuldigten ab. Letztlich verjährte es wie auch das gegen drei enge Wegbegleiter aus der Sommermärchen-Zeit.
