At long last, are the Sabres ready to end their 14-year playoff drought and bring a downtrodden fanbase back to life?
You can't blame Buffalo Sabres fans for rolling their eyes about any single suggestion the team is finally ready to turn a corner. They've been hearing it for over a decade only to watch the franchise falter every time en route to an unimaginable 14-year NHL playoff drought.
So it's no surprise Sabres fandom is at perhaps its lowest point in history ahead of the 2025-26 season.
