A year early.

McLeod is literally nothing like Cozens.

Championship!

Crazy that he is only 364 days younger than Benson.

As the Premier said, if Canada decoupled from the US economy, they would cease to exist as a country.

Yep, agree with this. Love Benson, hopefully Quinn is still catching up from injuries.

Talk about tone deaf! Sabres Repost

The tank is on.

Sorry for the lack of clarity, the "no blockers" comment in the article sent me off into looking into the youngest team in the league thing. The "no blockers" approach was asinine. So is keeping the team the youngest in the league for the last 5 years.

This is asinine. The Buffalo Sabres have been recognized as the youngest team in the NHL for several consecutive seasons, based on the average age of their roster. While exact historical data for every season isn't fully detailed in the provided references, recent trends and specific mentions allow us to estimate this streak with reasonable confidence. For the 2024-25 season, the Sabres entered with the youngest roster in the NHL, with an average age of 25.32 as of opening day (October 8, 2024), according to OntarioBets.com. In the 2023-24 season, they were again the youngest, with an average age of 25.3, as reported by Elite Prospects and News 4 Buffalo. The 2022-23 season also saw them as the youngest team, with an average age around 26.1 at the start of the prior year (noted as dropping to 25.3 by 2023-24), per Sabres Noise and related commentary. Posts on X and Reddit further suggest that the Sabres have been among the youngest teams for at least the last five years, aligning with their rebuilding strategy under General Manager Kevyn Adams. While definitive average ages for the 2021-22 and 2020-21 seasons aren't explicitly cited here, the consistent narrative of youth—bolstered by the addition of young players like Owen Power (drafted 2021), Jack Quinn, and Zach Benson (2023)—implies they likely held this distinction. The Sabres' focus on developing prospects rather than signing older veterans supports a streak extending back at least to the 2020-21 season, when their roster included emerging stars like Rasmus Dahlin and Dylan Cozens, with minimal veteran presence after shedding players like Kyle Okposo over time. Thus, based on the available data and ongoing trends, the Buffalo Sabres have likely been the youngest team in the NHL for at least five consecutive seasons (2020-21 through 2024-25). This estimate could extend further with access to complete historical roster age data, but five years is a conservative, well-supported answer as of March 14, 2025.

I’ve been beating this drum, but IMO, Quinn’s issues are physical. (After two major leg injuries) I would shut him down for the season and get his ass in a squat rack ASAP

I agree with all that as well. Love a second line with Benson-Norris-Pre Injury Quinn.

I kinda think that is why Benson was paired with him last night. I really like that combo.

Sucker

Agree to disagree about Peterka vs Quinn, but I agree with everything else.
