DOMINIK HASEK

april 27, 1994 buffalo 1, new jersey 0 (4OT)

HASEK MADE AN ASTONISHING 70 saves over more than 125 minutes of hockey, outdueling a Devils rookie goalie named Martin Brodeur inside the Aud.

For more than six hours, as Buffalo faced playoff elimination in a scoreless tie, Hasek stopped every shot that came his way. Dave Hannan secured the 1-0 victory in the fourth overtime, ending the longest game in Sabres history. The 70 saves still stand as an NHL record for the most ever in a playoff shutout.

Buffalo lost 2-1 in Game 7, but two months later Hasek claimed the first of his six Vezina Trophies.
