Buffalo Sabres Tickets

Settle in and keep working seems to be the motto of the Buffalo Sabres schedule, after a season that was the first together for a team that had been heavily revamped during the offseason before last season. After picking up a large number of new, skilled players, the Buffalo Sabres roster was strengthened and went 10-5 in the first 15 games of the season, a run that was brought to a halt only when star goaltender Ryan Miller was run over and given a concussion by the Bruins’ Milan Lucic. That November 12, 6-2 blowout loss proved to be a fateful moment for the team from Buffalo, as they were soon struck by a large number of injuries, resulting in major midseason losses. But they are bouncing back this season, and you can be there with Buffalo Sabres hockey tickets.

A gritty 2-1 shootout win over New Jersey in the last game before the NHL All-Star Game break proved that the Sabres could be a top contender, and it became the catalyst for the team to power their way through the league. The Sabres went 18-5-5 in the next 28 games, and moved into a battle for the 8th and last playoff position. In the first of the last five games of the season, the Sabres looked like they might have a playoff run in the bag. They dominated playoff position rivals the Washington Capitals in a 5-1 victory that included a short-handed goal by star forward Jason Pominville and 44 saves by Miller, who improved to 8-0-2 in the last ten games. This was the last big win of the Sabres’ season however, as the next four games saw them come within one point of victory three times, only winning one game and finishing three points out of the playoffs.
