Sabres’ Worst Contracts for 2020-21

Sabres’ Worst Contracts for 2020-21

November 21st, 2020 As much as some fans wish it were the case, you can’t assemble an NHL roster like a video game in franchise mode. In a salary cap world, financial considerations go into every decision a general manager makes. The teams that find the most success tend to have the same things in common when it comes to salary management: taking...
Top 10 Latvians in NHL History

Top 10 Latvians in NHL History

February 20th, 2020 Perhaps no time did the country of Latvia fall into the gaze of the hockey world more than when the country of just under two million people helped attain the most votes in fan voting for the 2015 NHL All-Star Game. Due the support of his fellow countrymen, Latvian Zemgus Girgensons was the runaway leader by well over 300,000 votes....
Sabres' Trade Deadline Sales Pitches

Sabres' Trade Deadline Sales Pitches

February 6th, 2020 The Buffalo Sabres' annual trade deadline blowout bonanza is upon us. As has been the case for nearly a decade, the Sabres find themselves approaching the deadline with one goal in mind: offload as many assets as possible for as much as possible. The problem this season is that the expiring contracts they have available have put...

October 20th, 2019 SAN JOSE, Calif. — Zemgus Girgensons scored with 7:45 left and the Buffalo Sabres continued their surprising start with a 4-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Saturday night.

Sabres Host Bills’ Zay Jones First Hockey Game

Sabres Host Bills’ Zay Jones First Hockey Game

March 9th, 2018 Buffalo Bills’ rookie wide receiver Zay Jones didn’t quite break the internet Wednesday night in Western New York, but he put a decent-sized dent in it. Zay, short for Isaiah, announced on Twitter he was going to his first-ever Sabres game. He was clearly excited but wasn’t sure what to expect. It conjured up images of Chance...
Is She the Future of European Hockey?

Is She the Future of European Hockey?

December 4th, 2017 Commonplace as it might be in backyards and recreational centers for a parent to play with their child in sport, it does not occur in high-level competition. Seemingly once in a million, if that. In fact, this may be the rarest of occasions in any sport. When it comes to hockey, Gordie Howe had the chance to play alongside two of his...
Girgensons' Best Fit May Be in Sabres Top-6

Girgensons' Best Fit May Be in Sabres Top-6

August 18th, 2017 The Buffalo Sabres signed their final restricted free agent Zemgus Girgensons on Thursday evening to a two-year $3.2 million contract. Now that the forward put ink to paper the task of trying to figure out the proper role for Girgensons begins. In his four NHL seasons, he's played up and down the line up for the Sabres. We've seen...

Sabres Roster Appears Ready For Camp

August 16th, 2017 When the calendar turned to August, all eyes slowly started turning towards the world of hockey.

Sabres Draft Mistakes Lead to Depth Drought

Sabres Draft Mistakes Lead to Depth Drought

May 3rd, 2017 As the Stanley Cup Playoffs progress, we are reminded again of the most important thing – depth is important. Every single season, we see superstars like Sidney Crosby and Jonathan Toews and then there are those "unsung heroes" on the other three lines that help push their team to glory. How would one go about acquiring those...
Recap: Contested Goal Stands as Devils Burn Sabres 2-1

Recap: Contested Goal Stands as Devils Burn Sabres 2-1

February 7th, 2017 Two teams on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. Two teams scratching and clawing for every point in the Eastern Conference Wild Card race -- and it wasn’t pretty. Adam Henrique was credited with a fluky goal off a fortuitous bounce off Buffalo Sabres’ defenseman Cody Franson to open the scoring in the second period and...
Larsson Injury Opens Opportunity

Larsson Injury Opens Opportunity

January 5th, 2017 The center position was one of the deeper areas on the Buffalo Sabres' roster to begin the season. After a sudden rash of injuries, the position has thinned out. Ryan O’Reilly has missed some time with an appendectomy, but he did return to practice and is expected to get back into the lineup against the Chicago Blackhawks Thursday....

Iginla's No-Trade, Girgensons Trade Calls & More News

December 11th, 2016 Jarome Iginla would not waive his no-trade clause at the trade deadline last year, but he might be willing to this year. At least, that's what Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman reported Saturday. It's the final season of Iginla's three-year deal in Colorado and it could be the last of his career, making this his last chance to chase the...
The Bylsma Shuffle

The Bylsma Shuffle

October 25th, 2016 Buffalo Sabres head coach Dan Bylsma earned the reputation of being a habitual line juggler last season. The majority of his line adjustments can be chalked up to the new coach becoming familiar with his club, as in the second half of the season the juggling subsided considerably. However, only four games into this season, Bylsma is at...
Zemgus Girgensons' Struggles Continue

Zemgus Girgensons' Struggles Continue

October 18th, 2016 The 2015-16 season was a year to forget for Buffalo Sabres forward Zemgus Girgensons. He missed some time with injuries and had a career low in offensive production in his third season. After signing a one-year “prove-it” contract this offseason the 22-year-old hoped to get off to a hot start and have a bounce back 2016-17...
