Season 6 Episode 24 (Part 1 of Mini-Series featuring the Two in the Box Podcast)

Straight Up Sabres

Welcome to Straight Up Sabres on The Hockey Podcast Network & The Charging Buffalo!

On today's episode, we team up with Chris and Tyler from the Two in the Box podcast for the first of a four-part mini series exploring the best Sabres team of all time. We put together a six team bracket of the best Sabres teams of all time, with the top two teams (in our opinion) getting a first round bye. Episode 1 (today's episode) covers the first round matchup between the 1979-80 Sabres, who lost to the eventual Stanley Cup champion New York Islanders in the Conference Finals, and the 1992-93 Sabres who lost to the eventual Stanley Cup champion Montreal Canadiens.
