Team history

[edit]

Unlike the average expansion franchise, the Sabres became a force in the PEIJCHL after only a few years in the league. They finished second in the league in both their second and third seasons, behind only South Side.

By their third season the Sabres had advanced to their first league playoff finals only to lose to the South Side.
