Good game, Sabre fans. I was quite nervous for a while.
Ruff just ripped his team in the post game conference. He basically said we sucked, the PP wasn't good enough and we didn't have the intensity from our best players.
He pointed out Hecth, Roy and Vanek also a few others. Aside from the score the Sabres could have won the damn game.
Oh well.
Luck and some good PKing (and goaltending) won the game for the Guins tonight. Gave up far too many PPs for my liking, and were thoroughly outshot because of it. Michalek had a solid game on the back end (really just got unlucky with the 2nd goal rebound), and Jeffery looks very natural in an NHL lineup. Great, physical game. I think the refs *may* have let things go a little too much in the early parts of the game, leading to some nasty play towards the end. Lots of stuff just ignored on their part. Good match Sabres fans...just work on that PP and you're golden.
Thanks pix, I usually don't get bitter but this hurt. Kudos to the Pens for the win though.
