Sabres announce details for 2022-23 Fan Appreciation games

As the Buffalo Sabres continue their push to the postseason, the team will celebrate their fans over the course of their final regular-season games with a series of events and giveaways:
Tickets for both remaining regular-season home games are on sale now.

Kids Appreciation Day (Saturday, April 8)

Six lucky kids have been selected to represent Sabretooth's All-Star lineup and will be recognized for the work they do in the classroom and in the community.
These lucky fans were nominated and will receive tickets to the game, a Sabres swag bag and passes to Sabres Access, where they'll be able to cheer on the team before they take the ice:
The first 5,000 kids in attendance will receive a special Buffalo Sabres pop-it toy. In the concourse as they enter the arena, fans can have their faces painted, get balloon animals made, have their hair done by Braid Babes, and enjoy a pregame set by DJ Brei.

Lucky rows will also receive prizes from Moe's Southwest Grill, Northtown Automotive, Seneca Resorts and Casinos, and WellNow throughout the game.
Tickets for the final 50/50 Raffle of the regular season featuring a guaranteed jackpot of $50,000 are on sale now. Instead of drawing a winner on April 8, all proceeds from raffle sales on Saturday will be rolled over to the final regular-season home game and the winning numbers will be pulled during the third period on April 13.
Fans in New York State can buy tickets online now at Sabres.com/5050 or from vendors at KeyBank Center on April 8 and April 13.
In addition to the grand prize, those who buy a raffle ticket will be eligible for these second-chance prizes (which will also be drawn on April 13):
- A pair of Sabres season tickets for the 2023-24 season - A Suite Night at a Sabres home game during the 2023-24 season - A Sabres team-signed jersey - A Sabres team-signed stick

Fan Appreciation Night (Thursday, April 13)

Fans in attendance for Fan Appreciation Night will have a chance to win a variety of prizes and experiences throughout the night.
The first 15,000 fans will receive a goathead-themed T-shirt resented by Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield of Western New York that commemorates this season's roster. The team will take the ice once again in their third jerseys as well.

As fans enter the arena, they will be treated to music by DJ Milk, they'll be able to take photos in front of a Let's Go Buffalo balloon and light display, and enjoy sampling and giveaways from corporate partners including Truly, New Amsterdam Vodka, and Seneca Resorts and Casinos.
T-shirts, koozies, autographed pet calendars, team-branded flags and much more are also up for grabs as part of Lucky Row Giveaways thanks to the team's corporate partners including Moe's Southwest Grill, Northtown Automotive, Seneca Resorts and Casinos and WellNow.
The 2022-23 Fan of the Year will be recognized during a pregame ceremony on the ice that will also announce the winner of this year's Rick Martin Memorial Award winner presented by the team's Gold Ring partners (KeyBank, Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield of Western New York, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center and LECOM).

Rasmus Dahlin, Kyle Okposo and Alex Tuch are this year's Rico Award finalists. The award, as voted on by the fans, honors the player who best demonstrates on-ice excellence, resiliency, and dedication to the community. Fans can vote now through Saturday at 11:59 p.m.
During the first intermission, the three finalists of the Toyota Truck Giveaway will take the ice to see which one is lucky enough to win the grand prize of a two-year lease for a Toyota Tacoma.
The winning numbers for the 50/50 rollover raffle and second-chance prizes will also be selected during the third period.
There will also be expanded prizing for fans who want to test their precognitive skills with Predict the Sabres presented by Seneca Resorts and Casinos. Sabres fans can click here to play or visit the official Buffalo Sabres app.

Fan Appreciation Night at Home (Friday, April 14)

The giveaways don't stop with the final home game of the season.
Fans who tune in to the broadcast on MSG against Columbus starting at 7 p.m. can scan a special QR Code and gain access to a special URL so they can enter to win great prizes.
Viewers who enter this year's Fan Appreciation Night at Home sweepstakes could win one of three great prizes: a $500 KeyBank gift card, a goathead duo jersey pack (featuring a Reverse Retro jersey and a black and red Sabres third jersey) or a VIP Game Night Experience for the 2023-24 season.
