If you had asked the question at this time last year, which New York team was closest to ending its championship drought? From Manhattan to Niagara Falls, most would have said the Buffalo Bills. Instead, it was the Knicks that after 53 years finally won an NBA title. The Bills are once again among Super Bowl favorites, and the Sabres have very much entered the conversation after a tremendous turnaround this past season that ended with a game seven overtime loss to Montreal in the second round.
So... which Buffalo team is closer to bringing a long awaited major sports championship to Western New York?
Mike Harrington, who works the Sabres beat for the Buffalo News, joined Adam Benigni and Sal Maiorana for the debate.
