The Buffalo Sabres is a professional ice hockey team based in Buffalo, New York. Founded in 1970 as an expansion team, the Sabres have been a part of the National Hockey League (NHL) ever since. The team is a member of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference and plays its home games at KeyBank Center in downtown Buffalo.

The Sabres share a fierce rivalry with the Toronto Maple Leafs and participate in the Battle of the QEW annually with them. Along with the Leafs, the Sabres’ closest geographic rival is the Montreal Canadiens.

History

The Sabres had their greatest success in the 1970s. The team reached the Stanley Cup Finals twice in a row but ultimately fell short both times, losing to the Philadelphia Flyers in 1975 and to the Canadiens in 1976. The Sabres’ fans are still proud of the 1975 team that became known as “The French Connection” line, playing in honor of three Sabres’ forwards – Gilbert Perreault, Rick Martin and Rene Robert.

The Sabres experienced many ups and downs in the subsequent years. In 1999, the team came just one win away from winning the Stanley Cup for the first time, but lost in game six to the Dallas Stars.

Current Team

The Sabres’ roster is filled with young talent. The team’s captain is Jack Eichel, a highly skilled center NHL player. The Sabres’ top prospects include Dylan Cozens, Casey Mittelstadt, and Rasmus Dahlin, who was the first overall draft pick in 2018.

The Sabres play in blue and gold, colors inspired by and evocative of the region’s natural beauty, sunsets and weather patterns. The team introduced an updated and modernized logo in 2020 which reflected crisp, clean line work while still retaining elements of the classic Buffalo look that fans know and love.

The Buffalo Sabres have a dedicated and passionate fan base who can be heard cheering on their team every game. Whether at home or on the road, the team continues to be a force in the NHL. With their promising young talent and history of success, the Sabres are a team that hockey lovers do not want to miss.
