The 1970-71 season was the first for the Buffalo Sabres, who were led from the start by their highly touted rookie Gilbert Perreault, the 1st pick overall in the previous summer's Amateur draft. They made their home debut on the evening of October 15, 1970 against the Montreal Canadiens before a packed house at the old Memorial Auditorium. Unfortunately, the Canadiens would spoil the party with a 3-0 victory, led by captain Jean Beliveau's two points and Rogie Vachon's shutout goaltending. Better days were ahead - by season's end Perreault had set a new NHL rookie scoring record with 38 goals. This complete program from the first ever NHL game in Buffalo is complete and in fine EX+ condition.
