Panthers were worse. 1996 Panthers lost 0-4, Sabres lost 2-4 on that controversial Hull goal.
Geoff Sanderson and Alexei Zhitnik were fairly high-profile players for Sabres. Rhett Warrener, Cory Sarich, Jay McKee made up fairly physical and tough D.
Sabre's goaltending depth was unreal with Hasek, Biron and Roloson. I realize, that you need one goalie to play the game, but I can't think of any other team that had three #1 goalies in their system. It doesn't hurt that 1999 Hasek was probably the best goaltender ever. Sabres were still bad, but not the worst finalist ever.
