The Buffalo Sabres are a professional ice hockey team based in Buffalo, New York. The Sabres were founded in the 1970-71 season and play in the Northeast Division of the Eastern Conference of the NHL at home in the HSBC Arena. The Sabres have never won the Stanley Cup (their one appearance in the Cup finals, resulting in a loss to the Dallas Stars, is controversial due to the Cup-winning goal and arguments about an illegal skate in the crease when the goal was made), however they did win the President's Trophy for Best Record in the NHL in 2006-07. Many Canadians from Southwestern Ontario support the Buffalo Sabres because of the proximity to the people and the general love of Hockey in Canada. During home games regardless of the opponent, Oh Canada, the Canadian national anthem is played alongside the Star-Spangled Banner. Their games are televised by the MSG Network.^[1] Radio coverage is provided by WGR 550AM and MXMO 101.5FM.
