Tim, Dean and John F. Kennedy, Dwight D. Eichelhower, Ulysses S. Grant Ledyard, Andrew (the Bigger) Johnson, Lyndon B. (The Biggest) Johnson, John Tyler Ennis, John Tyler Myers, and John (Martin) Van Burensmeer.

 

Also, you could add Nixon Ward

That all looks right to me.

Nine all-time Sabres have the same last name as an American president. Name them. :devil:

 

Ok, taking a serious stab at this:  Johnson & Kennedy are all that I can come up with.

 

Hamilton wasn't a president, and Al Smith lost his election to Hoover, so that's all I've got.

OK, make that eight all-time Sabres. My bad on Hamilton.

 

You are missing a pretty easy one from the 1900s.

Wilson from the 1910s.  I don't think there were any McKinleys, Tafts, or Roosevelts on the Sabres but I could be wrong--but thanks for steering me in the right direction.

There has to be a Jackson.

Cereal got one of them. Dane. The other one played two games. No one is getting that without cheating.

 

1900s... uh...

Ok, so far we've got

 

Kennedy

Kennedy

Johnson

Taylor

Wilson

Jackson the Dane

Jackson the Obscure (he played 5 games, not 2)

 

So there's one more.  And I know who it is.  Because I cheated.  And no one is going to get it.  But I will give a hint:  Never, in the history of our proud nation, has there been a President Grigorenko.

Hmm...does his nickname sound like the second half of Zemgus?

Now you're onto something!

 

Don't think anyone will get 64 without looking it up. So here's his initials and the season:

 

D.M. 1999-2000 season (played the one game in 2000)

I remember seeing that name while researching other questions. It's so tempting to just go look it up.
