Buffalo continues their first season in the NHL with a game at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto on Saturday night, with the whole country listening via the CBC and Foster Hewitt.

10/11: BUF 5, TOR 2; Goals- BUF: Pratt, Bauer (2), DeMarco, Bauer (3, SH), Grosso (2); TOR: Poile (4), Stewart (2); A- 14,529

Buffalo shocks the Leafs with a 3 goal 2nd period, and eventually wins by 3 goals, sending Toronto to 1-4-0 on the season. The Toronto crowd is shocked and a few even start to boo at the end.

10/12: CHI 3, BUF 1; Goals- CHI: Gadsby 2, Bentley (5, ENG), BUF: Oberg (1); A- 7,779

A tough loss for the Sabres after the previous night's victory, with the Black Hawks scoring twice in the first 15 minutes and never looking back.

10/16: TOR 2, BUF 2; Goals- TOR: Meeker (3), Kennedy (4), BUF: Oberg (2), Cunliffe (1); A- 9,075

The Sabres continue to play well against the Maple Leafs, tying Toronto in front of the largest crowd of the season so far, over 9,000. Several hundred of the fans came from Toronto, as it is easier to drive 3 hours or so to Buffalo and get tickets at the Aud.

6 games in and the Sabres are 2-3-1, with G Jean Marois leading the league in save percentage.
