Mac the Sabres pup is changing lives

A fluffy Newfoundland named Mac is turning heads at Buffalo Sabres games—but he’s not just there for the cuteness. Mac is part of a unique program where inmates at Niagara County Jail train service dogs for veterans. The bond goes both ways: the dogs learn vital skills, and the trainers discover new purpose and hope. Mac, named after a fallen soldier, will soon help a veteran from the same unit. It’s amazing to see how one dog can bring together hockey fans, veterans, and people looking for a second chance. What do you think about programs like this? #Pets #BuffaloSabres #ServiceDogs

Buffalo Sabres fans deserve real change

Fourteen years without a playoff appearance—no other NHL team has gone this long, and Buffalo fans are feeling every minute of it. Friday’s 5-0 home loss to the Devils was just the latest blow, but the real frustration runs deeper than any one game. Fans are calling for the GM’s head, but after four GMs, eight coaches, and countless roster shakeups, the common thread is ownership. Terry Pegula’s leadership has turned a once-proud franchise into a cautionary tale. With beloved players leaving and winning elsewhere, it’s hard not to wonder: is a new owner the only way out? #Sports #IceHockey #BuffaloSabres

Buffalo faces tough call on Alex Tuch

Alex Tuch, the Sabres’ hometown star and team scoring leader, might be skating toward a new city. Contract talks with Buffalo are stalled, and with Tuch eyeing a big payday as a top free agent next summer, the Sabres could be forced to trade him before the 2026 deadline. It’s a tough spot for Buffalo fans—do you hold out hope for a last-minute deal, or brace for a blockbuster trade? Losing Tuch would sting, but letting him walk for nothing would hurt even more. What’s the best move for the Sabres? #Sports #IceHockey #BuffaloSabres

Buffalo Sabres fans know this feeling

Every time the Sabres go on a hot streak, Buffalo fans brace themselves for the next letdown—because history has taught us to expect it. ESPN’s Greg Wyshynski nailed it by calling our vibe “existential dread.” Despite a rough start, key injuries, and a playoff drought stretching back to 2011, the Sabres are still just four points out of a playoff spot. With stars like Thompson and Dahlin heating up and some injured players returning, is it finally our year, or are we in for another heartbreak? What do you think—are you feeling hope or just more dread? #Sports #IceHockey #BuffaloSabres

Buffalo Sabres’ value soars, but fans still waiting

Buffalo’s NHL team just saw its value skyrocket by 24% in a year—one of the biggest jumps in the league—even though the Sabres still haven’t made the playoffs in over a decade. The Pegula family’s investment has grown more than sixfold since 2011, but many locals are frustrated by cost-cutting and lack of on-ice results. Some are wondering if it’s time for new ownership willing to spend for a winner, but there’s also worry about what a sale could mean for the team’s future in Buffalo. What do you think—should the Sabres stay the course or is it time for a change? #Sports #IceHockey #BuffaloSabres

Buffalo’s loyalty shines as Sabres surge

Buffalo’s die-hard hockey fans are showing what true loyalty looks like. Even after years of playoff drought and tough seasons, more than 35,000 fans packed the KeyBank Center last weekend to cheer on the Sabres as they racked up big wins. The energy in the arena is electric, and it’s clear the city hasn’t given up on its team. With players like Josh Doan stepping up and the squad finding new life, it feels like something special is brewing. What do you think—are the Sabres finally turning a corner, or is this just another tease? #Sports #IceHockey #BuffaloSabres

Buffalo Sabres’ struggles start at the top

Fourteen years without a playoff appearance—no other NHL team has a drought like the Buffalo Sabres. Despite constant changes in coaches, GMs, and players, the losing streak hasn’t budged, and NHL analysts are pointing the finger squarely at owner Terry Pegula. The real issue? Ownership that just won’t let go. Fans are hungry for a turnaround, but unless Pegula brings in fresh leadership and steps back from daily decisions, things probably won’t change. Would you rather see new ownership, or do you think a hands-off approach could finally break the curse? #Sports #IceHockey #BuffaloSabres

Buffalo Sabres’ playoff drought: What’s next?

Fourteen years without playoff hockey in Buffalo has fans and insiders shaking their heads, especially when half the NHL makes the postseason every year. The Sabres’ struggles go deeper than the scoreboard—attendance is slipping, and hope feels in short supply. With GM Kevyn Adams playing it safe and owner Terry Pegula holding tight to the purse strings, the franchise seems stuck in neutral. Some say it’s time for a leadership shakeup and real investment in talent. What do you think it’ll take to turn things around and bring real excitement back to Buffalo hockey? #Sports #IceHockey #BuffaloSabres

Buffalo’s late draft pick turning heads

Melvin Novotny, picked by the Sabres at 195th overall, is already making waves in North America. Despite being a late-round selection, this 18-year-old Swedish winger is racking up points and showing a relentless work ethic that stands out. Coaches and teammates rave about his energy and vision on the ice—qualities Buffalo’s lineup could really use. Novotny’s not the flashiest skater, but his drive and hockey smarts are hard to ignore. It’s early, but could this be the steal Buffalo fans have been waiting for? How do you feel about betting on work ethic over raw talent in the draft? #Sports #IceHockey #BuffaloSabres
