During Game 6 of the 1991 Wales Conference finals against Pittsburgh, the Bruins popular power forward was checked in his already injured knee by Penguins defenseman Ulf Samuelsson in what was widely regarded as a dirty play. Neely developed chronic complications in the aftermath of the injury, leading to a degenerative hip condition that ended his career in 96.
