Stoner Posted January 1, 2006 Report Posted January 1, 2006 January 1, 1971 In the first New Year's Day game in franchise history, the Sabres get bombed by the Boston Bruins, 9-4, at the Aud. January 1, 1976 Apparently hung over from the night before, the Sabres are given a 9-6 headache by the visiting Los Angeles Kings. Butch Goring disappoints the Aud throng, not to mention Sabre goalie Gerry Desjardins, by scoring a hat trick. January 1, 1999 Teemu Selanne scores a hat trick to lead his Mighty Ducks of Anaheim to a 7-2 rout of the Sabres at the Marena. January 1, 2000 It's finally the Sabres' turn to ruin someone's New Year as Buffalo burns the Toronto Maple Leafs 8-1 at Marine Midland Arena. Erik Rasmussen, Maxim Afinogenov and Stu Barnes each score a pair of goals.
Saber61 Posted January 1, 2006 Report Posted January 1, 2006 2000 was by far the highlight of all new years... i mean we pretty much won the first game of the new millenium and in decicive fashion.
