With the Sabres fighting through injuries but still in the playoff race, adding a player like Panarin could be the spark that takes them to the next level.

david52+FollowSabres’ trade deadline plans heat upBuffalo’s playoff hopes have flipped the script—now, instead of selling, the Sabres are on the hunt for a top-scoring winger before the NHL trade deadline. GM Jarmo Kekalainen is making moves, but the big question is whether he’ll lock in Alex Tuch for $10 million a year or shake things up with a blockbuster trade. With the team’s offense needing a boost and the city buzzing about a potential playoff run, every decision could shape Buffalo’s future. What would you do: pay up for Tuch or gamble on a trade? #Sports #IceHockey #Sabres00Share
Sherri West+FollowSabres’ goalie shakeup: Who stays in Buffalo?Colten Ellis is stepping back into the Sabres’ net at Madison Square Garden, and this game could decide his future in Buffalo. With the team on a hot streak and goaltending finally clicking, the Sabres can’t afford to return to their old three-goalie rotation. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen has been lights out lately, and Alex Lyon is almost healthy, so someone’s got to go. If Ellis shines tonight, he might force management into a tough decision—or could be on the move himself. What do you think: Should the Sabres stick with the current duo, or give Ellis another shot? #Sports #IceHockey #Sabres00Share
Jordan Leblanc+FollowSabres face tough call on Owen PowerBuffalo’s playoff push has put the spotlight on defenseman Owen Power, who’s now being floated as a “change-of-scenery” candidate on the NHL trade board. Power hasn’t quite met the sky-high expectations that came with being a No. 1 pick, but he’s still a major asset under contract through 2031. Trading him would be a franchise-shaking move—one that could define GM Jarmo Kekalainen’s tenure. Would you risk moving a young cornerstone for immediate help, or bet on his long-term potential? The Sabres’ next steps could reshape the team for years. What would you do? #Sports #IceHockey #Sabres10Share

With the standings this tight, every point matters. Do you think this new mental toughness will carry the Sabres into the playoffs, or is there still work to do? #Sports #IceHockey #Sabres00Share
stacy28+FollowBuffalo’s Noah Ostlund deserves Calder buzzNoah Ostlund has quietly become a game-changer for the Buffalo Sabres, stepping up big time while the team battles injuries. Despite matching the impact of other top rookies, he was left off every ballot in a recent NHL.com Calder Trophy poll. Ostlund’s improved two-way play and 12 points in 29 games have made him a key piece, yet he’s still flying under the radar. Should Lindy Ruff give him a shot on the top line? Is it time for the league to give this rookie the recognition he’s earned? Let’s hear your thoughts, Sabres fans! #Sports #IceHockey #Sabres00Share
stacy28+FollowSabres fans buzzing: Ristolainen trade talk heats upRasmus Ristolainen, once a mainstay on Buffalo’s blue line, is suddenly back in the trade rumor mill—and Sabres fans can’t help but wonder if a reunion makes sense. With injuries piling up, the Sabres need depth, but the Flyers’ asking price is sky-high for a 31-year-old defender whose offense has dipped. Ristolainen’s physical style and familiarity with Buffalo could help, but is it worth paying a premium for a player the team traded away just a few years ago? This situation really highlights the frustration of seeing former Sabres thrive elsewhere. What do you think—should Buffalo bring Risto home if the price drops? #Sports #IceHockey #Sabres10Share
