    The Sabres and Habs are set to face off in round two. We break down the series by looking at how the two clubs matchup across each lineup.

  • Sabres in the Driver's Seat Entering Game Five
    Apr 28 2026

    The Sabres took both games in Boston and return home with a commanding 3-1 series lead. They have the opportunity to close out a series on home ice and we talk about the keys to Buffalo's game that will be imperative to earning a 4-1 series win. We break down Buffalo's relentless forecheck, how their defense has played a major role in their success and where they've taken advantage of the Bruins. We also share some of our favorite memories from home ice close-out games over the years.

  • Dave Horesh of Oxford Pennant Knows Puck
    Apr 27 2026

    Oxford Pennant Co-Founer Dave Horesh joins the show to talk about the deep Buffalo roots of Oxford Pennant and the unique set of offerings they have produced for the Sabres playoff run. We also talk about Dave's love of the Sabres, what it's meant for Oxford Pennant to work so closely with the organization (including the production of retired number banners) and, of course, how he has been celebrating the end of the drought and the return of playoff hockey in Buffalo.
