So I was brewing a modern deck today, and came up with a question. If I have a Saffi Eriksdotter in play, and one in hand, and I play one, can I then respond to the etb sacrifice from the legend rule by sacrificing Saffi to return the other saffi, then keep doing that forever by stacking triggers?

No. There are no triggers in your scenario. The Legend Rule does not create a trigger. It is just something that happens and it happens when State Based Actions are checked before a player receives priority. So, if Saffi is on the board and you cast another one, you will need to put one in the graveyard before you can activate the ability on either one.
Also, you don't sacrifice due to the Legend rule. You just pick one and put it into the graveyard.
