Penguins say changes needed to save their season

'They're tried adopting a Sabres-like system, one in which the defense creates offensive opportunities, but it hasn't entirely fit well with a team built around creative offensive players.' … [Read more...] about Penguins say changes needed to save their season

Pens' Woes Start Behind the Bench

'Much has been made of the big changes coming in the off-season for the Penguins, especially the possible trade of Jaromir Jagr. The first change to be made, however, should be behind the bench. The grand experiment of bringing in a European coach is a flop. Even if the Pens somehow find a way to right their sinking ship and win this series, a new captain should be on the … [Read more...] about Pens' Woes Start Behind the Bench

Keeping the faith in system pays off for Sabres

'"We've been sticking to our system," center Curtis Brown said. "We got down early, but we didn't stray away from that.

We stuck to it."' … [Read more...] about Keeping the faith in system pays off for Sabres

Pain-free Jagr a plus for Pens

'Jagr, who missed games 2 and 3 with a shoulder injury, scored the Penguins' first goal and skated better than he had all series. He credited his strong play to an injection he received just before the game.' … [Read more...] about Pain-free Jagr a plus for Pens

Penguins intent on winning series

'''Somebody told me that history never repeats itself and I really believe that,'' Jagr said. However, unless Jagr's Penguins defeat the Buffalo Sabres two games in a row, that ''somebody'' is going to be wrong.' … [Read more...] about Penguins intent on winning series

Sabres' Brown an active pest

'"The way I see it, you always have to work," Brown said. "You can never quit on a play, never let a guy go. You know that if you work hard out there to take away your opponent's time and space away, you can limit them. You might not shut them down, but you can limit them. It's all about work."' … [Read more...] about Sabres' Brown an active pest

Sabres 'no quit' attitude has worked

'"We got ourselves into some tough situations over the last few years," Brown continued. "It just seems that every time we get into that situation, we look at ourselves and say `we're not going to quit'. We can't guarantee anything, but we're going to keep working hard and do whatever we can to try to get back in this.'' … [Read more...] about Sabres 'no quit' attitude has worked

Pittsburgh Tribune Review | May 7, 2001

Will Game 6 be Jagr's swan song here?

'Buffalo has been so banged up on defense that it should be apparent to everyone that the Pens have needed to dump it in and make the Buffalo defensemen work. Force them to go back and chase it every rush and rattle their already bruised bodies. Instead, the Pens have stubbornly try to finesse their way through a team that is much faster and deeper. It's not working, … [Read more...] about Will Game 6 be Jagr's swan song here?
