PASabreFan Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 April 10, 1973 Rene Robert scores in overtime to send the Sabres' first-round series with the Montreal Canadiens back to the Aud with Buffalo down three games to two. Rick Martin and Rene Robert score midway through the game to give the Sabres a 2-1 lead, but the Canadiens tie it at 2 late in regulation time. After that, Buffalo tries to hold off tremendous pressure from Montreal, even resorting to a measurement of Canadiens' goalie Ken Dryden's pads with less than a minute left in regulation time. The pads are indeed wider than the allowed 10 inches, but the Sabres can't capitalize on the resulting power play that spills into overtime. Nine minutes into the extra session, though, Robert is sprung free on the right wing by a pass from Gilbert Perreault and beats Dryden with a low shot along the ice. April 10, 1988 John Tucker scores a power play goal in overtime to beat the Bruins 6-5 and tie the Adams Division semifinal series at two games a piece heading back to Boston for Game 5. Tucker has five points on the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mphs mike Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 I had forgotten about the stick measurement, but I can still see the shot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
