The last time the NHL brought its All-Star Game to the city of Buffalo saw stars like Mike Bossy, Phil Esposito, Guy Lafleur and Yvan Cournoyer make their way to the Queen City. The star-studded event in 1978 - 45 years ago - marks the last time the Buffalo Sabres hosted the NHL’s All-Star Game, and perhaps it’s time the league considers bringing the event back to the 716.
To be completely fair, there are six current NHL cities that have yet to host an All-Star Game: Anaheim, Newark, Seattle, Tempe, Winnipeg and Washington (DC).
