Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023-24 revision of our top 50 Buffalo Sabres.

As for all of our top 50 players in hockey, we look at the following:

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Hockey League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Sabres were hoping to break their long playoff drought and play meaningful spring hockey but could not reach the postseason.  There were no new entrants and three elevations.

As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:

1. Dominik Hasek
2. Gilbert Perreault
3. Rick Martin
4. Ryan Miller
5. Mike Ramsey

You can find the entire list here.

Three-time Defenseman All-Star Rasmus Dahlin jumped from #34 to 26.

Left Wing Jeff Skinner, who is now with Edmonton, reached #35 from #44.

Forward Tage Thompson moved from #47 to #42.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

A Carolina Hurricane for the first eight years of his career, Jeff Skinner was traded to the Sabres in the summer of 2018, and it was a mixed bag.

Skinner scored 63 Points in his first year in Western New York, but he saw less ice time over the next two years, and only had 37 Points in a combined 112 Games.  Skinner went back to the 63 Point mark in 2021/22 (noticeably the fourth time he finished a year with that total), and had a personal best of 82 in 2022-23.  He played one more year with the Sabres with his output droping to 46 Points.  Skinner's contract was bought out after the season, and he signed with the Edmonton Oilers. 

Overall, Skinner had 291 Points with Buffalo.
