billsfanmiami(oh) Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I did some digging around but can't find anything on the dates that the playoffs start. I'm away at school until the first week of May and was just trying to see where they'd be at in the playoffs when I get back. Gotta try and catch some games as I think the last playoff game I saw in Buffalo was game 3 of the Cup Finals in '99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EZC-Boston Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Anybody have any guesses when the Sabres first game will be? I will be in town 4/20-4/24 for a wedding hoping to catch a game or two... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfanmiami(oh) Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 The season ends the 18th I think so you probably have a good chance of catching one. I think they usually start the playoffs pretty quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Stanley Cup playoffs begin officially on April 21. Unless there is something very unusual regarding rink availability, all teams will start their series either on the 21st or 22nd. 1st 2 games for the Sabres will likely be 21st and 23rd. Next pair most likely sometime between 25th and 28th. If Sabres clinch 4th they will play the 1st 2 at home; if they end up 5th, they will start on the road. So basically, if they are 4th, you'll be able to see them; if not, you'll need to alter your travel plans. Also, no word on when tickets will go on sale to the general public, but season ticket holder tickets have been mailed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
