I figured with the hockey summer doldrums upon us, I'd run a poll each day on who people think is the best Sabre to ever wear a particular number.
There are 9 players who wore #32 at least once. But to narrow it down, I'm only going to consider those who wore the number at least a full season for a reasonable number of games. Sorry Wayne Ramsey, Scott Metcalfe, Don McSween, and Mikael Tellqvist.
Only consider how that player played while with the Sabres - so, not their NHL career in general.
I'll stick to the main numbers for which players are known.
Polls will allow voting for two days and I'll post the latest results in each poll.
