Rayzer32 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Amerks down 1-0 halfway through the 3rd come back to score 3 late goals and take game 1. Miller played great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TracyLee Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Thomas Vanek picks up two assists and finishes the game with ten shots on goal. I can't wait to see him play for the Sabres. He has been just incredible in the AHL racking up 42 goals (good for second overall) and leading the league in power-play goals with 25. Not too shabby for a rookie!

What's up Rochester hockey fan??? 311061[/snapback] Yes, that is pitiful. Everyone saying, well it's Wed night. Yeah, well the kids are also on school break this week, so that's no excuse. I was there last Friday and two Friday's prior to that, and there were 10,880 and 11,200 respectively. I'll be there this Friday and it better be packed.

I am so used to them playing on Friday's I got confused. They rarely have those Sat night home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 We had a sellout on Monday night of 6451 in Anchorage and our previous playoff games were attended by 5152 and 6251 (SRO Sellout) and those were on a Tuesday and Wednesday respectively. Rochester needs to represent. It's a great hockey town and the boys deserve better - especially this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the 4 1st rd games so far, Rochester had the highest attendance at 3800. Chicago (with a much bigger arena) had 2400, Milwaukee had close to 2400 and St. John's (a Canadien team) drew almost 3200. Rochester is usually in the top 5 in attendance every year, and that is with a medium sized arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
