    3 Buffalo Sabres who must step up to end a frustrating season opener streak (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Buffalo Sabres are set to begin the 2026-27 season with a road game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. They are set to try and accomplish something they haven't had the chance to do since the 2011-12 season, and that is to make the playoffs in back-to-back seasons. The Sabres snapped their playoff drought last season after finishing with 109 points, a 30-point increase over the prior season, and winning the Atlantic Division. It certainly won't be easy with how much the division has improved

    Sabres feature surprising line combinations in practice ahead of season opener (opens the original)

    The Buffalo Sabres were hit with a string of bad luck throughout the preseason, as it felt like every game there were multiple players who were leaving due to injuries. With all things considered, the Sabres seem to be in a pretty good spot going into their season opener against the Columbus Blue Jackets and are getting an idea of what the lines might look like. During Wednesday's practice, the Sabres' forward lines included Josh Norris, Tage Thompson, and Josh Doan as their top line. The second

    The Buffalo Sabres were able to go as far as they did in the playoffs because of the strength of their blueline. Last season, they had arguably the best Top 4 in the entire league, led by Rasmus Dahlin, along with Mattias Samuelsson, Owen Power, and Bowen Byram. Entering this season, Byram is no longer on the team after being traded, and Samuelsson is beginning the season on injured reserve after suffering an injury in a preseason game. Even with all the concerns, there are plenty of reasons to

    A mix of good and bad news highlights the Sabres initial 23-man roster (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Buffalo Sabres on Monday afternoon announced their initial 23-man roster, and it was a combination of good and not-so-good news for the team. On the positive end, the Sabres didn't have any of their Top 3 goalies or Olen Zellweger on injured reserve. In addition, Jiri Kulich and Justin Danforth are on the initial 23-man roster as there was speculation that one or both might begin the season in Rochester. It will be interesting to see if either is in the lineup for the first game of the seaso

    4 bold predictions for the Buffalo Sabres forwards this season (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The Buffalo Sabres forwards are going to look a little different this season with the departure of Alex Tuch. With a lack of options in free agency or on the trade market, the Sabres are going into this season with the hope that their younger players are ready to take that next step. While it is a risk, the Sabres still have their best forward in Tage Thompson, who has had 40 or more goals in three of the past four seasons. When looking ahead to the upcoming season and the need to take on an exp
