The team reached the 50-win plateau for the second time in franchise history. However, on May 19, they were eliminated by the Ottawa Senators after five games.

Long-time Sabres broadcast color commentator Jim Lorentz announced his retirement during the preseason. The Sabres lost 2—1 in a shootout.
The Sabres failed to qualify for the 2008 playoffs and became only the third team in NHL history to go from finishing first overall in the regular season standings to finishing out of the playoffs the following year. This ended their 29-year affiliation with the Rochester Americans. They signed with the Pirates for two seasons, with a parent club option for a third. Three days later, the Sabres acquired Craig Rivet from the San Jose Sharks in exchange for a second-round draft pick in each of the next two drafts. The Sabres also extended the contracts of three players: Paul Gaustad four years , Ryan Miller five years and Jason Pominville five years. Miller was slated to become an unrestricted free agent following the upcoming season while Pominville was set to become a restricted free agent. The team was also active at the trade deadline. Dominic Moore came from the Toronto Maple Leafs for a second-round pick in the 2009 draft , then Buffalo received a second-round pick in the 2009 draft from the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for Ales Kotalik. On April 9, the Buffalo Sabres were eliminated from the playoffs.
Mikael Tellqvist was acquired by the Sabres on March 4, 2009. He was their backup goaltender for the remainder of the 2008—09 season. General manager Darcy Regier announced on the first day of free agency for the following season the Sabres had signed unrestricted free agent defenseman Steve Montador to a two-year contract. They also signed free agent defenseman Joe DiPenta to a one-year contract on July 11, and extended contracts with three other players: Andrej Sekera to a multi-year deal, Clarke MacArthur to a one-year contract, and Mike Grier to a one-year contract. Grier, having played two seasons with the Sabres, returned after playing the last three with the San Jose Sharks. Four stops were scheduled throughout the season in Tampa, Florida , Washington, D. Many native western New Yorkers live in those four cities; Sabres fans have been known to have large contingents in attendance, rivaling those of the home teams when playing in Raleigh and Tampa. The first was with the Columbus Blue Jackets , which sent them Raffi Torres in exchange for Nathan Paetsch and a second-round draft pick. On March 27, the Sabres clinched their first playoff berth since 2006—07 with a 7—1 rout of the Tampa Bay Lightning.
On April 26, the third-seed Sabres were eliminated from the Stanley Cup playoffs by the sixth-seeded Boston Bruins in six games. Defensemen Henrik Tallinder and Toni Lydman were allowed to leave as free agents, while the team signed veterans Jordan Leopold and Shaone Morrisonn to replace them. Additionally, center Rob Niedermayer was added as a Stanley Cup-winning, veteran presence.

The Sabres playing a game during the 1998—99 season. The Sabres were later crowned the Eastern Conference champions following the 1999 Stanley Cup playoffs. In 1998—99 , Miroslav Satan scored 40 goals. The next year was a disappointing season. The team struggled in the regular season, due to injuries to Hasek as well as other tired and discouraged players. Doug Gilmour was acquired from the Chicago Blackhawks at the trade deadline and sparked the Sabres to a playoff berth. Like the previous season, there would be an officiating controversy. While replays appeared to show the puck entering through the "side" of the net, the goal was allowed to stand. The Flyers would win the game 2—1 and go on to win the series four games to one. Even so, the Sabres still defeated Philadelphia in six games in the first round of the playoffs with a resounding 8—0 victory in the series-winning game. In the second round, they faced the underdog Pittsburgh Penguins, led by rejuvenated superstar Mario Lemieux and captain Jaromir Jagr , who had won his fifth Art Ross Trophy that season, losing on a seventh-game overtime goal scored by defenseman Darius Kasparaitis. After lengthy and failed negotiations with their star goaltender, the Sabres traded Hasek to the Detroit Red Wings in the summer of 2001, bringing a five-year era of playoff success to a close. Without Hasek and Peca, the Sabres missed the 2002 playoffs. Rigas was later convicted and presently is appealing a sentence of 15 years in prison. The NHL took control of the team, though the Rigas family remained owners on paper. For a while, there were no interested buyers. After the two-year period of uncertainty, including rumors of relocating to another city or even straight out folding, the team was sold to a consortium led by Rochester, New York , billionaire and former New York gubernatorial candidate Tom Golisano and former Sabres president Larry Quinn , whose bid included no government funding. Golisano was introduced as team owner on March 19, 2003. With the 2002—03 season having started under NHL control, general manager Darcy Regier could make only minimal moves. However, with the consultations of impending new ownership, the team began their rebuilding process around the March 2003 trade deadline by clearing out veteran players. The first to go was winger Rob Ray , who was sent to the Ottawa Senators. The team then sent center and team captain Stu Barnes to the Dallas Stars in exchange for young winger Michael Ryan and a draft pick. The 2003—04 season saw the team emerge from its financial struggles and, though the Sabres narrowly missed the playoffs, the development of prominent young players.

На лидера «Баффало» Джека Айкела претендуют шесть клубов НХЛ
Крайне важно, что американский центровой получает помощь от опытных игроков атаки — Алекса Тача, Джеффа Скиннера и капитана Кайла Окпосо. Главный вопрос: хватит ли всего этого для попадания в плей-офф? Это определяющий критерий для команды. Важно, чтобы лидеры оставались здоровыми, чтобы Тэйдж Томпсон продолжал свой невероятный прогресс, чтобы Расмус Далин играл так, словно бы он не претендент на «Норрис Трофи» когда-то там в будущем, а является им прямо сейчас. Для «Клинков» на нынешнем этапе развития невероятно актуальна максимизация усилий всего ростера для достижения общей цели.
Подопечные Спенсера Карбери не проигрывают уже пять матчей подряд. Александр Алексеев стал игроком «Кэпиталз» в 2021 году. В прошлом сезоне он отыграл в НХЛ 32 игры пять результативных передач , а годом ранее провел всего одну встречу.
Сейчас у них спад, а две выигранные встречи с аутсайдерами - не показатель. Пробуем, а там лёд рассудит всех. Публикую заранее, хотя проставляться рано. Ещё вырастит коэффициент. Все будут попанить «Флориду».

На лидера «Баффало» Джека Айкела претендуют шесть клубов НХЛ
Buffalo advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time in team history to play against the rough Philadelphia Flyers who had been recently nicknamed the " Broad Street Bullies " , a series which included the legendary Fog Game Game 3 of the series. Due to unusual heat in Buffalo in May 1975 and the lack of air conditioning in the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium , parts of the game were played in heavy fog that made players, officials, and the puck invisible to many spectators. During a face-off and through the fog, Sabres center Jim Lorentz spotted a bat flying across the rink, swung at it with his stick, killing it. It was the only time that any player killed an animal during an NHL game. However, Philadelphia would wind up taking the Stanley Cup in six games, winning the series 4—2. The French Connection, joined by 50—goal scorer Danny Gare , continued to score prolifically for the Sabres in 1975—76 , but the team lost in the quarterfinals to the New York Islanders. The Sabres had success through the late 1970s behind Gare and the French Connection Perreault, Martin and Robert , but they were unable to return to the Finals despite a Wales Conference championship in 1980 and being the first team to beat the Soviet Olympic Team when they toured the United States.
All three players have had their sweater numbers 11, 7 and 14, respectively retired and a statue erected in their honor at KeyBank Center in 2012.

March 2019 Learn how and when to remove this template message In 1981—82 , the NHL realigned its conferences and adopted an intra-divisional playoff format for the first two rounds. It was the beginning of an era in which the Sabres would finish in the middle of the Adams Division standings with regularity, and then face the near-certainty of having to get past either the Boston Bruins or Canadiens to make it to the conference finals. Aside from first-round victories over Montreal in 1982—83 and Boston in 1992—93, the era saw the Sabres lose to division rivals Boston, the Quebec Nordiques and Montreal in the Adams Division semi-finals first round a combined eight times, and miss the playoffs altogether in 1985—86 and 1986—87—only third and fourth times out of the playoffs in franchise history.
Perrault reached the 500-goal mark in the 1985—86 season and retired after playing 20 games in 1986—87, 17 years after joining the Sabres as their first draft pick. During his rookie season in 1987—88, he helped the Sabres reach the playoffs for the first time in three years. He was joined in 1989 by Alexander Mogilny , who with the help of Sabres officials became the first Soviet player to defect to the NHL, and cleared the way for all other Russian players to follow. In the 1989—90 season, the Sabres would improve to finish with 98 points—third-best in the NHL—but the playoff futility continued with a first-round loss to Montreal. In 1992—93, goaltender Dominik Hasek joined the team in a trade from the Chicago Blackhawks. In the 1993 playoffs , the Sabres upset the Bruins in a four-game sweep in the Adams Division semi-finals, their first playoff series victory in ten years.
However, the eventual Stanley Cup champion Montreal Canadiens swept the Sabres in the division final, with the Sabres losing all four games by a 4—3 score the last three games in overtime. Another first-round playoff loss to the Philadelphia Flyers in the lockout-shortened 1994—95 season was followed by a fifth-place finish in the Northeast Division in 1995—96, as the team missed the playoffs for the first time in nine years. Nolan brought an exciting brand of hockey to Buffalo. During his coaching tenure, Buffalo was referred to as the "hardest-working team in hockey". He scored 25 goals that season and was second in team scoring to Pat LaFontaine. The final game in Memorial Auditorium was played on April 14, 1996, a 4—1 victory over the Hartford Whalers.
Sabres principal owner Seymour Knox died a month later, on May 22, 1996. However, the regular season success was overshadowed by what had taken place during the playoffs. Tensions between Nolan and Hasek had been high for most of the season. After being scored upon in Game 3 of the first round against the Ottawa Senators , Hasek left the game, forcing backup Steve Shields to step in. Hasek claimed he felt his knee pop, and the team doctor pronounced him day-to-day. Despite the fact Hasek issued an apology, things went downhill after the incident.
Shields starred as the Sabres rallied to win the series against Ottawa. But before the next series against the Philadelphia Flyers, the NHL announced Hasek had been suspended for three games, with the Sabres informing the NHL Hasek was healthy Hasek most likely would not have been suspended had he not been cleared to play. Shields turned in another season-saving performance as Buffalo staved off elimination with a win in overtime. Again before Game 5, Hasek declared himself unfit to play and Buffalo lost 6—3 and the series. Nolan refused on the grounds his previous contract was for two years. Former Sabres captain Lindy Ruff was hired as head coach on July 21, 1997, agreeing to a three-year contract.
Behind Hasek, left-winger Miroslav Satan who led the team in scoring , right-winger Donald Audette , center Michael Peca and several role-playing journeymen including Matthew Barnaby , the Sabres reached the Eastern Conference Finals that season, but lost to the Washington Capitals in six games. The Sabres playing a game during the 1998—99 season. The Sabres were later crowned the Eastern Conference champions following the 1999 Stanley Cup playoffs. In 1998—99 , Miroslav Satan scored 40 goals. The next year was a disappointing season. The team struggled in the regular season, due to injuries to Hasek as well as other tired and discouraged players.
Doug Gilmour was acquired from the Chicago Blackhawks at the trade deadline and sparked the Sabres to a playoff berth.
Первая пара оборонцев выглядит идеально с точки зрения всех современных канонов, состоит из скандинавских исполнителей и включает в себя топового атакующего защитника Расмуса Далина и устрашающих размеров домоседа Маттиаса Самуэльссона. Этот парень набрал всего 10 очков в прошлом сезоне, но на его счету 91 блок-шот и 107 хитов! Атака Тэйдж Томпсон превратился в машину по генерированию очков и остановился в трех шагах от отметки в 50 голов за сезон. Крайне важно, что американский центровой получает помощь от опытных игроков атаки — Алекса Тача, Джеффа Скиннера и капитана Кайла Окпосо. Главный вопрос: хватит ли всего этого для попадания в плей-офф?
Коулман забросил шайбу, а Коронато и Гилберт стали его ассистентами в данном взятии ворот. Далее хозяева льда в третий раз сумели отыграться. Петерка поразил рамку соперника. Козенс и Йокихарью записали себе в актив по пасу. На пятой минуте периода Ружичка, представляющий Калгари, поставил в матче точку, забив гол. У Кадри и Дюбе здесь по пасу. Итог — 4:3 в пользу Сейбрз.
Несмотря на длительный опыт работы Раффа в организации, Адамс ясно дал понять, что решение нанять Раффа вышло далеко за рамки его связи с городом Баффало, а вместо этого было основано на опыте и успехе, которых он добился на протяжении своей легендарной карьеры, которые помогут «Сэйбрз» победить сейчас. Адамс видел способности Раффа вблизи, будучи в тренерском штабе команды Раффа с 2009-10 по 2012-13 годы. Рафф выходил в плей-офф в каждой из трех своих тренерских остановок Баффало, Даллас и Нью-Джерси. Он по-прежнему обладает дисциплинарным характером, который фанаты, возможно, помнят еще по его первому пребыванию в «Сэйбрз», но за последнее десятилетие он развивался, уделяя особое внимание общению и построению отношений с игроками - баланс, по словам Адамса, имел решающее значение для тренера после сезона. Чтобы выигрывать хоккейные матчи. Вот что важно. Но речь не совсем об этом. Речь идет о победе». Игроки команды «Сэйбрз» сезона 2005—06, включая Джейсона Поминвилля, Райана Миллера и Томаса Ванека, поддержали это мнение, когда они обратились к Раффу после его найма, чтобы сообщить ему, что он тот парень, который сможет привести команду туда, где она хочет быть. Рафф доказал, что может вывести молодую команду на новую высоту после того, как в прошлом сезоне вывел «Нью-Джерси Девилз» в плей-офф с рекордными для франшизы 112 очками.
