Sabres Fan in NS Posted February 28 Report Posted February 28 On 2/5/2026 at 3:15 PM, PASabreFan said: Great post! @Sabres Fan in NS might be there with ya. However Sabres and Pens have met in postseason only twice. 79 and 01. Both losses represented an end of an era (the 70s Sabres were petering out and Dom was done). You are correct on both counts ... we were living in Pittsburgh from 90 to 93 - their first 2 cups. Pittsgurgh Penguins have always been my 2a - with Montreal 2b, since my wife is half French Canadien from Montreal. Sabres have always been far and away my #1. After the '79 flame out Bowman arrived and the 70s Sabres took 1 more run at it (minus Robert for Van Boxmeer, if I recall correctly) in the spring of 1980. When the next dynasty (Islanders) took them out in the semi final Bowman cleaned everything out. Quote
