"The last time the Buffalo Sabres played a game in the Stanley Cup playoffs was April 26, 2011, a 5-2 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers that eliminated them from contention."
"Many in the hockeysphere have been hoping for a return of playoff hockey to Buffalo, and it appears those folks will get their wish this spring."
"Depending on whether the Sabres finish first in the division -- and thus draw a wild-card opponent -- or finish second and face the third seed, that changes the field of who they could play."
"Overall, the Sabres have gone 1-1-1 against the B's this season, but they have gone 2-0-0 this season against the Senators, Red Wings and Islanders."
The Buffalo Sabres last played in the Stanley Cup playoffs on April 26, 2011. Fans are excited about their potential return this spring, with a chance to win the Atlantic Division. The Sabres are scouting potential first-round opponents, with the Montreal Canadiens, Ottawa Senators, Boston Bruins, Detroit Red Wings, and New York Islanders being the top candidates. The Sabres have favorable records against several of these teams this season. The regular season concludes on April 16, with playoff races and draft lottery positions being monitored closely.
