The NHL and Buffalo Sabres announced that Buffalo will host the 2026 NHL Draft, marking the fourth time the city has done so. This event follows previous drafts in 1991, 1998, and 2016, placing Buffalo second only to Montreal in NHL draft history. Commissioner Gary Bettman highlighted the city's strong hockey culture as a key reason for the selection.
The Buffalo Sabres are being urged to target Calgary Flames forward Blake Coleman ahead of the trade deadline to bolster their playoff push.
