Bonus points for what season or even part of a season the player represents. For example the all time Sabres team has December 1998 Dom in goal. Now you might consider half season Tage.

Seems like an all star team. Intangibles anyone? No room for Vaclav Varada, who drove the Flyers nuts in 98? Want to win a key faceoff? Brent Peterson.

Context.

He said something like if you prepare properly everything takes care of itself. He was a great Stoic.

I stopped reading at the second mention of Rassmus Dahlin.

JHFC.

The beginning of the end! I remember his return not long after @Pimlach got shown the door along with Pronovost. He reenergized the team and there was hope. Billy Inglis had the Sabres playing some good hockey.

Suck it, Doohickie.

George Seifert.

One of our 1C or2C becomes 3C. Lance says hello. The top six is set! KA must merely tinker on the edges of this soon to be contender!

AI is better than I thought. It knows last season wasn't eventful (it would see that events happened tho), so it ironically put the word eventful in the headline to trigger me, the leading Sabres influencer on the Internet. Damn.

After my cremation I want OSP engraved on my tombstone.

Behind every joke hides a kernel of truth.

I emerged from the loins of SDS, the love child of GODD.

Yes yes. But did Dodo cut the crust off your sammy?

Jim had the guts to write what he thought was the truth about Dom taking a dive. Dom had the guts to grab Jim by the shirt collar. That's all gone.

Punch, did you love your flawed core too much? Seems 1976 or 1977 would have been a good time to shake things up. In my mind's eye I see you taking your cap off and wiping your glistening, never ending forehead with the back of your hand before answering. 79-80 was quite a comeback year for the team though.

OK maybe. But the disdain jab has been coming. Dudacek has been in this mode for a long time. The fans just can't see how great things are. It's the drought coloring their opinions... Certainly not the team. Cozens gets the snark because he disappeared last season. Dudacek is the progeny of neo and X. He carries on the legacy of superiority and aloofness and sophistication well. Damn... That's some good vocabulary.

Your disdain for the fans is remarkable. And it's based on what? There is no reason for the disdain? The Buffalo Sabres franchise deserves every bit of snark.

I mean, yeah. Not hard in this crowd. If Lance thinks last offseason was eventful, is that notable? Ah, forget it. This is beyond you. Just tell us stories about living in Detroit in the 90s.

Lance could write for sabres.com. Another eventful offseason? Why make it about me? Do you want to comment about Lance's coverage of the team?

I can't imagine Ruff looks around this lockerroom and sees a captain. So maybe he'll revert to the post co captain era.

Headline: Charting a course for another eventful offseason (I realize the writers don't write the headlines, as far as I know.)

The Sabres will probably hire someone with no NHL coaching experience, have another great regular season then flame out in the playoffs again.
