Spandrel Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I said in the game discussion thread that teams so often lose these kinds of games, yet we found a way to win it. This team just keeps defying the cirumstances and the odds. No one ever expected this kind of series. Great win, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matter2003 Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 This team is absolutely unbelievable... In the face of adversity and with Ottawa seemingly having all the momentum they dominated the OT and score in 5 minutes... The heart and unwillingness to give in is and hatred of losing on this team is something that will go down in Buffalo Sports history equalling that of the 35-3 Comeback Bills..... They talk about having the heart of a champion.... This team has had it all year long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spandrel Posted May 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 This Sabres team is just so hard to kill. They just keep finding a way in game after game to win (or at least not lose). If San Jose wins tonight, all 4 series will be 3-0, with all 4 teams trying for series sweeps. Ouch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_sauve28 Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 They are tough! Ottawa was one of the highest scoring teams in the league and the boys are shutting these creeps down. We have a team here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarrytown Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Simply put I could not be more proud of a team. What else can I say, this is the type of team that we have always wanted..a team with heart and desire and...some talent. Look what has come of it!

Spandrel Posted May 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 They play unselfish "team" hockey. They don't make many mistakes, and they are getting great goal tending with Miller, now. There are few superstars on the team, they hustle and play hard "blue collar" hockey that reflects the city, itself. This team just seems to be doing it the way you'd like to see it get done. No prima donnas. It is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodfella25 Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Herb Brooks was right all along.....1980....."I'm not looking for the best players, I'm looking for the right players." To me, thats what we have here in Buffalo. The right players who are a true team. Unbelievable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spandrel Posted May 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Don't forget the other great quote about Herb's style: "The legs feed the wolves, gentlemen" "AGAIN!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
