i thought it was a piss poor effort by the sabres. Not to take anything away from the rangers because they played one hell of a game. The sabres once again werent able to put a 60 min effort together, and this time they didnt sneak by. The sabres did have some very good shifts, but they just seemed outplayed and out hustled. They lost alot of battle for pucks and just looked lazy on other plays. Trouble on the powerplay, difficulty clearing / moving the puck up, and turn-overs in the neutral / rangers zones seemed to ultimately make the difference in this game.
