This is pretty weird actually

I'm sort of wondering why this hasn't come up yet; the Detroit Red Wings aren't the only team left in the playoffs that choked on a 3-0 lead to lose a playoff series.

We all know that the Red Wings laid down so that God's team could win the Cup and make history in 1942. We also know that the Islanders and the Red Sox are the only other two teams to come back from 0-3 in a playoff series. The Red Sox did it against the Yankees (Derek Jeter drinks wine coolers), but not many people know who the Islanders did it against (unless you can read in which case my first line already gave it away).
