The Buffalo Sabres just completed their first two games of the season. They opened the year with a back-to-back against the Washington Capitals in Buffalo. A tough task to open the season against a team as strong as the Capitals, especially with so many new faces on the Sabres.
The opening night game ended in a 6-4 loss for the Sabres.
