NHL - North Division
Buffalo Sabres
- The Buffalo Sabres is a professional ice hockey team based in Buffalo, New York which began to play in the NHL in 1970.
- The Buffalo Sabres, along with the Vancouver Canucks, joined the NHL in the 1970-71 season.
- The Sabres' first owners were Seymour and Northrup Knox, scions of a family long prominent in Western New York.
- Buffalo had been a foundation for minor-league hockey, and the Buffalo Bisons had been one of the pillars of the American Hockey League, winning the Calder Cup in their final year before yielding to the Sabres.
- On October 20, 2006, the Sabres defeated the Carolina Hurricanes in a 5-4 shoot out win, to set a new franchise record with their 12th consecutive regular-season victory.
- On November 5, 2006 the Sabres defeated the New York Rangers in New York to set a new NHL record for consecutive road wins to start a season (eight), which was extended to ten games
