Anaheim, CA (AP) - In front of a home crowd of 18,000 fans, the Anaheim Ducks routed the Buffalo Sabres by a score of 6-3 last night in BRHL2 action. While the game was expected by most to be a lopsided affair, it was the Sabres who were expected to dominate the scoresheet. On this night however, it was the Ducks who came to play.
Anaheim was led by a two-goal, one-assist performance by Dave Bolland and a strong 24-save performance by Pascal Leclaire. Freddy Meyer, Ryan Whitney, Scottie Upshall and Glen Murray each had individual markers for the Ducks, while Fredrik Sjostrom had an impressive night with four assists. Jeff Carter (2) and Jere Lehtinen replied for Buffalo.
The Ducks were so impressive in an effort that saw Martin Brodeur chased from the net, that Tuesday mornings skate was made optional by the team's coaching staff.

Yeah I would be frustrated if I had won the first game and then you happened to win the second. However, in all honesty my first year I was kind of hoping for losses :) In fact, I used to feel the same way about a win as I feel about a loss now.
I'm sure you'll get over it :D Correct me if I'm wrong though and you value those wins.
