Philadelphia Flyers - 8 consecutive playoff OT losses between 1995-00'

Philadelphia Flyers - blowing 3-1 lead in conference finals vs Devils in 2000.

Dallas 21, Eagles 20 - 1997, Tom Hutton botches hold on a 21 yd fg attempt at time expires.

More Eagles - NFC Championship 2001, 2002, 2003 - although really only 02' and 03' at home as big favorites hurt bad.

Maryland 20, GT 17 (OT) - 2001, Joe Burns has a fumble returned for a TD, runs out of bounds inexplicably with GT trying to run out the clock with a minute left up 17-14, then fumbles to end the game after Maryland is held to a FG on the first possession of OT.

1981 NLCS Game 5 -- Blue Monday. The Expos never made the playoffs again. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

2004 - Game 7 of the opening round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Senators lose yet another playoff round to the hated Maple Leafs. Losing was bad enough, but losing solely because of Patrick Lalime's incompetence made this a very bitter pill to swallow. Every Senators fan *knew* that Lalime wasn't good enough to carry the team far into the playoffs, but the team steadfastly refused to pick up a better goalie at the trade deadline. Sure enough, Lalime let in two soft goals early in the game and ended yet another Senators playoff run at the hands of the Leafs.

Not painful for me personally, but I'm sure the 1992 wild card Buffalo/Houston game was pretty painful to some. They just showed an NFL films thing on it this afternoon and I still remember watching that game when I didn't even care about either team.

Houston 35 - Buffalo 3 part way through the third quarter.
Buffalo 41 - Houston 38 in overtime.

They've all been pretty painful, but the last one was the worst, simply because of the way they lost it. They'd won in 2OT in game 6 to force game 7, and it looked like they had the momentum going into the game. But, just as everyone in Ottawa predicted would happen, Lalime totally choked and handed the Leafs the game.

The only saving grace is that they finally got rid of Radek Bonk, Jacques Martin, and Patrick Lalime as a result of the loss.
