This Day in Sabres History


Recommended Posts

January 1, 1971

In the first New Year's Day game in franchise history, the Sabres get bombed by the Boston Bruins, 9-4, at the Aud.

 

January 1, 1976

Apparently hung over from the night before, the Sabres are given a 9-6 headache by the visiting Los Angeles Kings. Butch Goring disappoints the Aud throng, not to mention Sabre goalie Gerry Desjardins, by scoring a hat trick.

 

January 1, 1999

Teemu Selanne scores a hat trick to lead his Mighty Ducks of Anaheim to a 7-2 rout of the Sabres at the Marena.

It's finally the Sabres' turn to ruin someone's New Year as Buffalo burns the Toronto Maple Leafs 8-1 at Marine Midland Arena. Erik Rasmussen, Maxim Afinogenov and Stu Barnes each score a pair of goals.
