PASabreFan Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 April 21, 1997 At the Corel Centre in Ottawa, Dixon Ward scores with 19 seconds left in the third period to snap a 2-2 tie and give the Sabres a two games to one lead in the Eastern Conference quarterfinals. Ward's goal isn't the only incredibly dramatic moment. Seconds after a goal that gave Ottawa a 2-1 lead late in the second period, Dominik Hasek removes himself from the game with a knee injury that will debated for eternity in Buffalo. Backup Steve Shields overcomes a shaky start in relief to hold on until Ward's winner. April 21, 1999 Dominik Hasek makes 40 saves, Curtis Brown gets the winner on the power play and the Sabres kill off eight of nine Ottawa power plays as they squeak out a 2-1 win over the Senators in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals at the Corel Centre. The Senators outshoot the Sabres 41-15. Hasek's best save comes with the Sabres nursing that 2-1 lead with 10 minutes to go in the third period -- The Dominator reaches back with his stick and robs Alexei Yashin of a certain goal. April 21, 2001 The Sabres rout the Flyers 8-0 at HSBC Arena to take the Eastern Conference quarterfinals four games to two. For the record, the goal scorers are Chris Gratton, Doug Gilmour, Donald Audette, Dave Andreychuk, J.P. Dumont, Steve Heinze, Dumont again and Gratton again. The goaltender is The Dominator.
