Sabres Turn Draft Week Into a Fan Fest Circus

Buffalo is turning NHL Draft week into a full-blown event, and the Sabres are laying out the details for a two-day Fan Fest on June 26 and 27. That means the usual draft-room tension is getting a public-facing twist, with fans getting a closer look at the team’s big weekend than they usually do. The Sabres know draft week is where hope gets packaged and sold, and they are giving the market plenty to chew on before the picks start flying.
