"A Spin of the Wheel" (i don't remember the author) I wish I had bought the 30 odd copies at a clearence store ($1 a piece) so many years ago. Every copy I had - was loaned - and gone Great story of the birth of the Sabres and the timeline involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbb Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 That was a great article, and you were right - it was really well written. Good stuff - I didn't know much of that..........I was 7 at the time, but do remember how good that last Bisons team was - I see on that site that Guy Trottier had 55 goals - that is unreal - how was he not playing with the Rangers that year!! I remember Villemure getting called up a lot and then for a few years he shared the Rangers goalie duties with Giacomin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spun Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 That was a very interesting article. The first Sabres player, Joe Daley (as mentioned but also misspelled in the article) was also one of the last goalies to play without a mask. I remember them raising the Aud roof to get more seats in there. They got more seats alright but isn't that also how they got bats? Five dollars for a standing room ticket. Certain players did cast some long shadows. The first Sabres Assistant GM, Fred Hunt was my uncle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
