Jack Eichel
The Former Captain and maybe one of the most hated ex-Sabres in the history of the team will be doing something he never did in Buffalo. That is play in a playoff game. His Las Vegas Golden Knights take on Winnipeg Jets.
Ryan O'Reilly
The former Buffalo Sabre was traded to St. Louis where he won a Stanley Cup with the Blues, and now he will try to help one of the most hated teams by Sabre Fans, the Toronto Maple Leafs will a cup this year. The Maple Leafs take on the Tampa Bay Lighting.
Linus Ullmark
Is Ullmark the goalie that would of gotten the Sabres to the playoffs this season if he styed in Buffalo? He wanted a big payday and got one from Boston and now he is in the playoffs with the Bruins. Boston takes on Florida.
Taylor Hall
Hall was with Buffalo only for 37 games after signing a one year deal worth $8 million dollars. He was suppose to link up with Jack Eichle and bring firepower to the Sabres offense. He only scored 2 goals for Buffalo before being traded to Boston. Boston take on Flordia in the opening round of the NHL playoffs.
Evander Kane
Another speedy scoring machine that was supposed to open up Buffalo's Offense. Kane played in Buffalo for 3 seasons before the Sabres traded him to San Jose. He is currently with the Edmonton Oilers. The Oilers take on the LA Kings in the opening round of the NHL playoffs.
