If the Sabres moved like they did last night, they can bypass the physical play the Ducks like to bring.

 

However, Buffalo will be tired from last night; they put up a full 60 minutes. They need to score that first goal quick and dictate the flow of the game early on.

 

They'll either need to suck it up and skate like the wind, or fall into a very physical, grinding game against Anaheim. Assuming the Sabres are tired from last night, it'd be in their best interest to avoid a physical match up against the Ducks. They need to move their legs and skate circles around Anaheim.

 

The Sabres should also be sure to crowd the crease and make things difficult for the Ducks goalie. Without Pronger, the Ducks don't have that dominant physical dman to clear things up in the crease. The Sabres need to expose this weakness.

 

Buffalo played one of their best games of the season last night. Here's hoping they continue playing like that. :thumbsup:

 

Hmmmm, anyone catch the announcers just saying the exact same thing? B-)

I wonder what team will show up in the 3rd.

I have no doubt which team will show up. This team is incredible. Myers is going to get a goal tonight. He had two great chances that period. Buffalo has learned how to play in close games.

 

What they need is an early goal in the 3rd. They get it, there is no way they lose this game. Miller and Offense are going to bail out Lalime..

Nice second period. Can't go to bed now.

 

Tuned into the radio broadcast for a bit and liked what I heard. Dan Dunleavy from the FAN590 is pretty good. He did play-by-play for the WJHC.

3 shots allowed in the second. I'm sure that has nothing to do with the score :doh:

3 PPs also had something to do with it..

Totally agreed. Myers got close once late in the 2nd. I think Derek Roy has been great. On the shift he had that "diving" call i thought he made several great plays and kept that play alive single handily.

 

And I agree, if the Sabres score early in the 3rd, it's lights out in the arrowhead pond or whatever they call this rink nowadays.

OK. Bed for the third, unfortunately. Goodnight. I see a 6-4 win here. I'll either be late for work tomorrow (and posting on here later) or find out in the am if I'm right. But I hope to drift off to the sweet, sweet sounds of the Anaheim announcers complaining about diving.

Who can sleep? I need to be up at 4:15, on the road by 5:00 and drive 180 miles to be where I work tomorrow by 8:00... I'm going to be a mess tomorrow.
