March 20, 2016 Buffalo Sabres rookie Jack Eichel was too sick to play in Saturday night's game against the Maple Leafs in Toronto. His absence, plus having played a game the night before while the Leafs enjoyed the night off was just too much for the Buffalo Sabres. The Sabres turned in their worst effort in more than a month in a 4-1 loss.
March 19, 2016 Unlike the game Wednesday night against the Montreal Canadiens, the Buffalo Sabres were rewarded for their effort Friday night in a hard-earned 3-1 against the Ottawa Senators. Sam Reinhart led the way with a goal and an assist while Chad Johnson stopped 30 of 31 shots to pick up the victory.
March 14, 2016 Hilarious.
The man. The myth. The legend.
You never know exactly what he's going to say, but you know it's going to be good. Rick Jeanneret got to call Jack Eichel's first overtime winner and luckily, of all games, the RJ Cam was in full force because we could watch this over and over since his excitement is so contagious
The legend at work

March 12, 2016 As the kid gets stronger and bigger and gains more experience the type of game he played on Saturday will become more routine. Jack Eichel's second goal of the afternoon was the game winner and they don't come any more dramatic. Eichel scored on a breakaway with one second left in overtime to give the Buffalo Sabres a 3-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes.
March 11, 2016 The Montreal Canadiens 3-2 win Thursday night at the Bell Center was overshadowed by a scary injury to Montreal defenseman P K Subban. The star Canadiens player suffered an apparent neck injury when he collided with a teammate while tangled up with the Sabres' Marcus Foligno late in the third period. The game was held up nearly 15 minutes while medical and training staff from both teams attended to the player on the ice. Subban held a thumbs up to the crowd as was wheeled off the ice.
March 8, 2016 A 3-0 hole was too much for the Buffalo Sabres to overcome Tuesday night against the New York Rangers. The Sabres made a game of it but fell to the Rangers for the ninth straight time 4-2.
March 8, 2016 The last time the Buffalo Sabres won a game in a shoot-out was back in October when they beat Toronto. Since then the Sabres had lost six straight shoot-outs until Monday night when they beat the Leafs again. Sam Reinhart's shoot-out goal was the difference as Chad Johnson stopped all three Toronto shooters to clinch the 4-3 victory.
March 3, 2016 Give credit to those dedicated Buffalo Sabres fans who continue to buy tickets and attend games because the Sabres occasionally do reward that dedication by actually winning a game or two. Thursday night against the Calgary Flames they even provided a bonus by scoring more goals than had in the previous five games combined.
March 2, 2016 In the first ever meeting between Connor McDavid and Jack Eichel, last year's top two NHL draft picks, McDavid clearly was the better player. McDavid scored both goals for the Edmonton Oilers in a 2-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres in overtime on Tuesday night.
February 28, 2016 The Buffalo Sabres closed out a three-game western road trip with a 2-0 loss against the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday night. The Sabres played well enough defensively and got good enough goaltending from Robin Lehner to win, but just couldn't generate enough offensively against a tough Kings team.
February 27, 2016 Sometimes one team just has another team's number. Try as they might the Buffalo Sabres just don't seem to have a whole lot of luck when they play the Pittsburgh Penguins. But it's a different story when they play the San Jose Sharks. Friday night the Sabres beat the Sharks in San Jose for the fifth straight time. In the last 10 games against the Sharks overall the Sabres are 9-0-1.
February 25, 2016 Passes that are a little off, shots that are a little wide. The Buffalo Sabres played a good game against the red-hot Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday night, but not good enough to beat them. Anaheim's Sam Vatenen scored a second period power play goal and the Ducks defense made it hold up in a 1-0 win over the Sabres for Anaheim's sixth straight win.
