does soupy make the list of 6 best d men all time?


shoenny
van boxmer
hajt
ramsey
housley
horton
campbell
korab
risto
guevremont
mckee
smehlik


that's my top 12 in no particular order

is soupy top 6 on that list?

- homiedclown


I think he's top 6 Sabres defense all-time. That hit in the Winter Classic that he absorbed and went airborne on will forever make me happy. But if we assemble an all Sabres team of who's who in their prime, he is for sure in the top 6.

I still Believe we get rid of one of those guys
😥😥🤢🤢🤢🤢

I'm going to be super depressed if we don't trade for a top Winger

- GERBE!!!75PTS[/img]


Who would you like to see them bring in? Most teams that have top 6 wingers to move want dmen in return, which we don't have extra of. I would have thought if another winger was going to be added Jbotts would have looked into Eberle and Johansen (SP).
Id love to see another top 6 LW to play with Jack, just don't see how it happens, with the assets we are most likely to offer.

I would take prime Tallinder over Campbell

*ducks*

- jcragcrumple



i feel like the justification for this is similar to the one about girardi deserving more norris votes than Karlsson a few years ago.

i protest. No mention of kulikov or any of my other usuals.

I liked tallinder but i just dont see a scenario where he'd even be in the same tier as campbell.

You only get sick days when you work.

You're a millnial, so you cant possibly really work, therefore you're not entitled to any sick days.

Teppo was good for 1 season and the rest of his career here was meh (obviously the heart problems didnt help that). The last year he was unbelievably slow

I don't know what winger he will bring in but the gm is very crafty can't really win games when you can't score goals ..

And Jack sets up people with a perfect dime but they cant score

My argument would be that Campbell wasn't even top pair here. Lydman and Tallinder were 1-2

Campbell saw more ice time than them (at least in 06-07 and 07-08)

He averaged 30 seconds more a game than Tallinder bc he played more PP time but Tallinder/Lydman were the workhorse pair
