Sabres and Maple Leafs - A Very Important Game

Over their storied 50 year existence as a franchise, the Buffalo Sabres have worked their way into more than a few rivalries with opposing franchises.

No rivalry holds more clout with the organization than the rivalry with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Despite facing the Boston Bruins (294 games) and Montreal Canadiens (284 games) more times throughout their franchise history, the hatred among Toronto and Buffalo’s fanbases finds itself amplified - likely due to the quick 1 hour and 57 minute drive down the QEW to KeyBank Center.

A mixture of the aforementioned short trip, coupled with Buffalo’s recent struggles and a welcoming secondary ticket market, there never is a shortage of fans from Toronto at the KeyBank Center.
