Last night, the electrifying Buffalo Sabres stepped into the First Niagara Center for their first true home game of the season.

This Buffalo Sabres need to avoid a rough start to their season.

They came out strong and won their opener in Helsinki against the Ducks 4-1. That's something they didn't do last year.
