Corp000085 Posted May 5, 2006 Report Posted May 5, 2006 Sabres and the sens get it on before the main event! Yes, i'm talking about dora the explorer!!! How exciting. Anyhow, game time is 7:05pm EDT and its on OLN (directv channel 608). If your computer accepts our Java chat, the link to the chat room is http://www.sabresreport.com/chat You can also listen to the game on the internet at http://www.wgr550.com To synch up the internet radio with the tv broadcast, obviously use your mute key, and your DVR to pause the oln broadcast till it matches the radio... The delay can range anywhere from 45 seconds to 2 minutes. GO SABRES!
blugold43 Posted May 5, 2006 Report Posted May 5, 2006 have fun everyone...i have to work all night...MAY catch the very end of the game, but it is doubtful. my girlfriend is sweet and she promised to call me with lots of updates. fortunately this does not happen to me often. GO BUFFALO!!!
letsgobuffalo45 Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 Anybody else notice that gay horn OLN plays briefly after every goal? Its pretty annoying, just like this play by play guy, John Beninati. Man I miss RJ and JL. This should be one damn good 3rd period...
haseoke Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 my god. there are no words for this #%^$#!. derek roy, 5 points. oh #%^$#! me. you thought game 1 in philly was an instant classic??? if we win this one, i think it goes down as the most thrilling game in Sabres history.
GreenDice Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 Never did I doubt that they are going to tie it. :P Timmy is incredible!
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 well we win so it becomes a very memorable game :D :D :D
matter2003 Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 OMG!!!!! What an unbelievable game!!!! The look on the Ottawa players faces was priceless!!! What a choke job by #24 on the Senators and what a shot by Drury!!! Sabres Win 7-6 15 secnds into OT!!!!!!!!! This might have been the best game I've ever seen.....
nodnarb Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 I still can't believe it. Folks, this Sabres team of ours has as much HEART and desire as any team I've ever witnessed. I officially BELIEVE they can bring a cup to Buffalo. ...And I'm an agnostic....
Orange Seats Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 Timmay is my hero. Closely followed by Drury.

VABeachSabresFanatic Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 In the words of Chris Farley in Tommy Boy: I've seen a lot of things in my life, but that...was...AWESOME!!! :P The last time I was that excited watching a Sabres game on TV had to be when they beat the Stars in OT in Game 1 in '99. I think virtually every game in this series will be a 50/50 coin toss (that would give us a 56.25% chance to win the series at this point). I would have liked much better goaltending, although Miller didn't have a prayer on several of the goals. They will definitely have to play smarter in their own end picking up Ottawa forwards.
DR HOLLIDAY Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 Yeah this is one that will be remembered about for a long time, only thing that could have made it better, was if the game was a series clincher or a game seven.
mrjsbu96 Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 I still can't believe it. Folks, this Sabres team of ours has as much HEART and desire as any team I've ever witnessed. I officially BELIEVE they can bring a cup to Buffalo. ...And I'm an agnostic.... i don't want to pee on the campfire, but we have a lot more wins to get before we can talk that way. Thank God for opportunistic rushes and a weak goalie. Although, I did not think most of those were the fault of Emery. He should have had the rebound on the one to tie it, and he should have had Drury's shot, but I will gladly take it. Especially b/c I think a game like this should get Miller all pissed off again b/c he really seemed to battle the puck tonight/control his rebounds. But, you are definitely right about the heart - they never stopped in this game.

matter2003 Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 They failed to mention that we hardly played our best game either... Also failed that they lost because Zdeno Chara didn't feel it was necessary to hustle to the puck behind the net and Briere went right around him and shoveled it out front to Connolly and he scored to tie it with 18 seconds left. Forgot to mention the choke job on 24 who looked like he was handling a grenade.... Talent doesnt always win in the playoffs....heart and desire does...and I don't know of another team that has more of that than the Sabres...and there are no better examples of that this year than Connolly and Drury....
Dagwood Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 Wow, that was a fun game to watch. These two teams proved one thing tonight.. Who needs defense when you can score like that :P The Sabre tranisition game is leathal. Hard for me to fault Emery on any of those goals. The Sabres buried every chance they got. And that giveaway by Volchenkov at the end speaks for itself. He won't do it again. The Sens played a dam good game as well, but did get cocky at the end and got burned...Big time. Sabres proved they don't quit...Sens let them up off the mat, game 2 will be different. I'm off to see Dora now. :blush:
rickshaw Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 To come back, FIVE TIMES, and not give up made me so proud to support the boys. I told the wife, it's not about Miller getting good #'s, it's about winning the highscoring games too. Miller let out some very fat rebounds tonight and will need to improve on that for sure. But to come back 5 times, once with just under 2 minutes to go, and then have to do it again with less than 12 seconds, shows you how hard our guys play. We didn't play well tonight and still won. That says a lot. We get shots on goal and we win this going away.
topshelfcookies Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYY fadjkdau 89faeujfkewau890uwea ru3809 ur32ur9 EIFAEW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "Chris Drury, Chris Drury!!! Do you believe! The Buffalo Sabres battle back all night long and what happens? Drury burries it and burries Ottawa in Game 1 of the best of seven series!" I'm naming my first born son Rick Jeanarette.
VABeachSabresFanatic Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 Was Ottawa really that dominant tonight? If a team gives up 2 short-handed goals in the same game, blows a lead FIVE DIFFERENT TIMES (including with under 15 seconds left), whiffs on a clearing pass to lose the game, and gives up SEVEN goals, how can it be considered dominant? I may be a biased Sabres fan (of course), but I thought Ottawa played slightly better overall other than the stupid Sabre penalties. Ottawa fans must be trying not to think about how this game stacks up with their past playoff choke jobs. TUG-NUTT, TUG-NUTT, TUG-NUTT!!!

I wouldn't get ahead of ourselves by calling it an all time choke... Sure, if this was a clinching game, then yes, it would rank probably right up there in the top 3 all time... However, this was one game, we got lucky, they got unlucky. If this is the "best" that ottawa has, i'm fairly confident that the sabres can have success in this series.
BRH Posted May 6, 2006 Report Posted May 6, 2006 I think it also needs to be said that the last three Buffalo goals have moved into Ray Emery's head and furnished a very nice three-bedroom condo. :)
