Stoner Posted February 1, 2006 Report Posted February 1, 2006 February 1, 1976 Gilbert Perreault piles up seven points as the Sabres beach the Golden Seals, 9-5, in California. The record stands to this day as the most points by a Sabre in a game. Another record from that game that never has been broken is three goals by both teams in 18 seconds, two by California and one by Buffalo's Dan Gare. February 1, 1996 Head coach Ted Nolan and general manager John Muckler are in rare agreement as Muckler executes a trade with the Florida Panthers for defenseman Bob Boughner in exchange for a conditional fourth-round pick. Nolan, who coached the Boughie Man in juniors, wanted to add toughness and character to his team. February 1, 2000 Dominik Hasek returns to the lineup and plays brilliantly in a 2-2 tie with Anaheim at HSBC Arena. "We were looking at each other on the bench wondering what he'd been doing for three months ? secretly playing in the Czech League or something?" Michael Peca said. The Dominator had been out since a late-October game against Florida at home in which he tore a muscle in his groin. For the record, the Sabres went 17-19-4 without Hasek. That included a woeful record with backup goalie Dwayne Roloson in net; Marty Biron played admirably.
