What type of players do the Buffalo Sabres need to find to become legitimate Stanley Cup contenders? A look at this 1976 Opeechee hockey card of the Sabres’ season statistical leaders provides some hints. They could really use some guys who can score like the 2 of 3 members of the French Connection featured on the card, but how about a player like Danny Gare? How many players in the NHL today lead their team in goal-scoring (with 50 goals even) and also lead the team in penalty minutes? Here’s hoping they can keep the right “grinders” on the roster who are already there, and add some much-needed offense, preferably offensive players who play with a physical edge, as Gare did.
