I remembered that is was the strangest penalty my 8 year old self has ever heard of. 50 years later and still nothing has surpassed it. Not even the faceoff violation?

Zamboni Posted September 21, 2023 Report Share Posted September 21, 2023 Who was the first player to wear number 48 for the Sabres? What forward did the Sabres select with the fifth overall pick in the 1971 NHL draft? What forward scored a career high 40 goals for the Sabres in 2018–2019?

shrader Posted September 25, 2023 Report Share Posted September 25, 2023 A random Joe Sakic reference this morning got me thinking about one. I don't know the answer but it might be fun to research. 1. How many hall of famers played their entire career with one team? 2. How many of those played in more than one city? I also wonder if the WHA could complicate the question. If someone played in the WHA and then just one NHL team, would you count that for #1? I'm not sure if anyone even did that since guys like Howe and Hull wound up playing with that same WHA team post merger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the two cities part though. You need someone from a relocated franchise and I’m having trouble thinking of anyone else. There aren’t many career Jets or Whalers. I don’t know that Shane Doan will ever make that list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there’s plenty in #1. I don’t really care about that portion. I only outlined it in that order because I wasn’t sure how best to word it. Sakic has to be the only one, unless there’s some crazy situation from the early NHL days. Maybe Doan sneaks in, but I just don’t see it happening.

I’m looking for hall of famers who spent their entire careers with one team that relocated. So Sakic in Quebec/Colorado. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
