The Fourth Win Is the Hardest

After an incredible Game 5 that saw momentum swing back and forth, ending with a Tyler Ennis gift from goalie Michael Leighton, what's next?

The pressure is on Flyers bench-boss, Peter Laviolette, to make the right choice in goal today. Will it be the black space--Brian "Boosh" Boucher? Or will it be the green space--Michael Leighton? Maybe go back to red with Sergei Bobrovsky?

Don't know as of yet, but I do know this much, I wouldn't want to be in his shoes. It;s hard enough developing a game-plan for the playoffs, but to then be expected to pick the right goalie? With an understanding of the situation, no empathy here.

The fourth win of a series is said to be the hardest one to get. The Fly-boys should be coming out like a rat trapped in a corner--teeth and claws bared for a fight.

Get ready, young Sabres.

See you all at the game today.
