Game 1: Building a wall.
Game one is all Buffalo. Except. It's not. It's all Patrick Roy. Pittsburgh defence is keeping Roy from getting shellacked, but the superior transition game of Buffalo is making sure that Buffalo controls the puck a clear majority of the time. But nothing doing. The psychological torment of Roy's great play begins to weigh on Buffalo in the 3rd period. Sloppy penalties and odd man rushes are more and more common. Buffalo is holding fort, but, barely. The game heads into overtime, a lazy holding call on Barkley puts Buffalo on the PK. Leetch point shot goes clear past the Ciccarelli screen for the win.
Pittsburgh wins 1-0, leads the series 1-0.
