Maybe I can even get @PASabreFan to play. Thompson's 6-point game is one of - what is now - ten such games in franchise history. (The record is a 7-point game - done once.) WITHOUT LOOKING IT UP, can you name the other five players (excluding Thompson) who've had a 6-point game as a Sabre? (Including the 7-point game would not change the number of players to be identified in response to the question.) I didn't hear it or look it up so I am going to try it: LaFaontaine Mogilny Hawerchuk Perreault Turgeon? Edited November 1, 2022 by matter2003

Didn't he have a 4-goal game once? He had a natural hat trick in Boston once against Pete Peters! We won 3-2 ...like 1983 I think 1

Just looked it up...got 2 out of the 5 right...but since those players both had 3 6 point games(and one of them a 7 point game!) do I get extra credit? Or no because I picked the low hanging fruit? 😂
shrader Posted November 1, 2022 Report Posted November 1, 2022 And LaFontaine had 2 within 3 months. Get to work, Tage. 1

Of the 3 I missed: -one was a major PP goal scorer back in the 80s and early 90s and also in the HOF -one was on the Sabres broadcast team at some point -one was an older brother of a much more famous player that played for the Blackhawks and put up 8 100+ point seasons and was elected to the hockey HOF.

Vaive, right? I looked at 1990 roster, has to be him Jim Lorenze? Doubt this, but broadcast team No clue on Blackhawks connection

Jim Lorentz is one of them. I actually forgot that player was a Sabre also... Edited November 1, 2022 by matter2003
That Aud Smell Posted November 1, 2022 Report Posted November 1, 2022 The hints were very necessary to get the last 2. The Jim Lorentz one is a real outlier. There's gotta be footage of him out there talking about it. I would have been hard-pressed to remember that the 5th player to notch 6 points in a game even played for the Sabres (or was a big deal in the NHL - I was a kid at the time and didn't follow NHL stuff super closely).

BUT, I could be wrong. You compared Tage Thompson to Matt Moulson. Maybe a better comparison would be William Karlsson

It's OK to not dramatically overreact to the first 5 or 6 games of the year ya know. Not everyone is going to be in midseason form from game 1. You can really tell who actually played sports and who didn't on this board Oh so you're that guy lol.
