The 2025–26 Buffalo Sabres season is the 56th season of play for the Sabres in the National Hockey League (NHL). It is their second season since head coach Lindy Ruff returned to the team. The Sabres look to snap a 14-year playoff drought, the longest in the NHL and tied for the longest in professional North American sports.
On December 15, 2025, the Sabres fired general manager Kevyn Adams after more than five seasons and replaced him with Jarmo Kekalainen.
