The Sabres trade left winger Norm Gratton and a third-round draft pick in 1976 to the Minnesota North Stars for center and two-time Cup winner Fred Stanfield.

At the Aud, starting goalie Daren Puppa breaks his arm in a collision with Montreal's Mike McPhee. The Sabres win the game 4-2 but lose Puppa for the rest of the season. The loss will soon force GM Gerry Meehan to make a trade for another goaltender, Clint Malarchuk, leading to a much more frightening injury at the Aud two months later.

No one is overly concerned when the Sabres lose to the Calgary Flames, 5-4, at Memorial Auditorium. After all, the fans have been spoiled by an eight-game unbeaten streak at home. Little did they know, the Sabres wouldn't win again at the Aud until March 17, a winless streak of 12 games (0-7-5).

Stu Barnes scores in overtime to give the Sabres a 3-2 win in Washington. Stuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
