If the Buffalo Sabres want to end their playoff drought, they are going to need big performances from these players.
The city of Buffalo is quickly becoming the city known for playoff droughts as the Bills went 17 consecutive seasons between trips to the postseason, and the Sabres are currently at 14 seasons. When teams go this long between playoff trips, it is hard to expect this is the season that it finally ends.
Once it does happen, it will be a surprise in the same way it was for the Bills back in 2017 when they made it for the first time.
