The last 3 Cup winners all started the season in Europe.
So it will be the Sabres, Kings, Ducks or Rangers this year.

We were supposed to win it in 08-09.
Before us, the last 2 teams to win the president's trophy one season to miss the playoffs the next, came back after that to win the cup.
I believe the Rangers was one.
If any year is ours, its now. The new regime, the constant improvements, and the slowly changing Buffalo sports attitude (for the positive) should give this team the boost it needs to become great.
For Gods Sake I hope So

the Sabres have a lot of momentum behind them and are improving, but I still think they're long shots for the Cup this year. The talent level just isn't quite there yet. With the way Pegula is running things, a Cup is in our future. I just don't think it'll be this season.Originally Posted by TMu11

So if the Sabres don't win the Cup this year, it's over? This is just the beginning of the new era. Pegula and Black are going to do whatever it take ever off season make improvements. Every year from now on will be our year but they still have work to do to build a winner. Pegula wants CupS.....Originally Posted by TMu11

I agree, I don't see the Sabres winning the Cup this year but I'm not ready to throw them under the bus but it's an outside chance to win it this year. This past off season they addressed the defense nicely. Next off season, I think they need to bring in more offense. My prediction: the 3rd year Pegula owns the Sabres will bring the Cup to Buffalo.Originally Posted by OpIv37
Of course not. But with the drastic changes I think we have a better shot than in previous years.Originally Posted by SabreEleven
I have no idea what the future will bring so I choose not to comment on it. My comment is based on the past few years

How were they in the top ten in goals scored last year in that case?Originally Posted by Crapface2000
In your opinion because the stats say differentlyOriginally Posted by Crapface2000
Let's let the season begin before we start complaining about how poor the offense may or may not be.

2 of the 4 teams are still in it.
4 in a row, and the least likely keeps this streak alive.
I think the Sabres were the least likely to keep this streak alive.
