GO SABRES !!!
GO SABRES !!!
At least 3 times, the Sabres have come close skating their
way to Lord Stanleys Cup! 
It may be Buffalos' unique geographic location (5 minutes
from Canada). 
No other American city
is within driving distance to the big 3 Canadian teams, and their great cities
(Montreal Canadians, Ottawa Senators and of course the Toronto Mapleleafs).
It may be that N.Y. state borders
two of the best Canadian provinces, Ontario and Quebec... , the later that 
keeps us always having a bit of a French Connection, 
in our
playing.
It may be that most
of us grew up playing hockey in our streets and rinks all over Western N.Y. Most people do not remember that Tim Horton of the Tim Horton donut chain played for both the Buffalo Sabres and the Toronto Mapleleafs in the 1970s, and unfortunately had his fatal accident while driving from Toronto to his home in Buffalo, N.Y.
Whatever it is the Sabres keep coming back, less the bulk of other american teams, still
with all the grit, definately the fast skating team, and everthing you would expect from a good ole
Northern town.
Come see our Sabres and I'm sure you will agree, In Buffalo we know our Hockey!
