‘Sure, the Sabres have had good teams and Hall of Famers in the past, but recent memory erases that. Since the 1999 Stanley Cup Final run, they’ve only been to the playoffs six times. The last time the Sabres made the postseason was in 2011, when Buffalo lost in seven games to Philadelphia in the opening round. Since then, the club has finished last in its division in five of the last 10 seasons.’
