peca no love for him or Barnaby?

Neither of them are anywhere near the level of the players we're still voting on right now, but they're going to be in the top 50 without a doubt.

 

Barnaby probably on the tail end and Peca somewhere in the middle.

IMO Peca is somewhere between Craig Ramsay and Donnie Luce..  Barnaby is in the same neighborhood as Benoit Hogue.  Barnaby isn't top 50 material.

I'd love to see some of the other old timers chime in. Not exclusively, mind you, The Hoss Convention II inviting younger fans to post and vote their impressions is way cool.

 

I'm imagining PA, K9, et al. Wouldn't XB and GoDD be something! Ah, life ...

I believe Gare to be one of the best all round Sabres, or NHL, players in his prime.

 

His prime was quite short due to his style of play.

 

A team leader, a 50 goal scorer (on the *third*(?) line) and not afraid to get his paws dirty.

I'm about to be rather blunt, but anyone who voted for Danny Gare ahead of Rene Robert or future HOFer Dave Andreychuk need their head examined. I have no problem with Mike Ramsey here, as he is the second best D in Sabres history, but for Gare to be placed ahead of these other forwards is simply wrong.

I don't wanna be right.....

So who are some names people would like to see come up in polls as we near the bottom of the top 10?

 

In addition to what we have on the poll now, I'd add Miller and Edwards. Vanek is 5th all time in goals, top 10 all time in points.  I think you could make a case there (ducks). 

 

it's gonna get real tough once we get out of the top 10.

 

And it is amazing how the all time stats are dominated by players from the teams' first decade.

Not if you take into consideration the fact that the NHL strongly discourages the scoring of goals for about the last decade and a half.

I'll go with Robert and Hawerchuk even though he's better known as a Jet.

Hawerchuck deserves consideration.  He was 2nd fiddle behind LaFontaine, but he was still a beast.

 

92-93:  LaFontaine with 148 points, Mogilny with 76 goals, Hawerchuck with 96 points.  *swoons*

 

Hawerchuck holds #7 and #8 season points totals.  Huge names in front of his, LaFontaine, Mogliny, Perreault, Turgeon, Robert.

 

Turgeon.....He's gotta be coming soon, no?

I put Turgeon ahead of Hawerchuk. Ducky was a transient player. As was PLF.
