Okay this dude may have worn a dorky helmet while he played for the Sabres, but he was one helluva defensive forward in his day.
Name that Old Time NHLer!

Mike Foligno?
Nope he was more of a scorer (I think he even scored 50 a couple of times) but he did wear a dorky helmet too.
Gilbert Perrault?
Pereault didn't wear a brain bucket.Munster said:
The French Connection!!! Now there was a legendary line if there ever was one.
Can you name the other two guys on that line??
Think Defense - but defensive forward for this Sabre.
Dale Hawerchuk
Perrault wore one later in his career:
Can't remember the other 2 on that line. Only other Sabre that comes to mind is Phil Housley, but he was a defenseman.

I think Dale Hawerchuck is in the top 10 all time in scoring.
The best defense is putting the puck in the other net?I Are Baboon said:
Hmmm...I was wrong. He's 17th.Ridemonkey said:
I'm basing that guess mostly on the fact this looks mid-90's and he appears to be number 10...
I found the exact pic on a sabres fan site. I won't say who it, see if someone else actually knows. Man, they all had funny helmets back then.
And Head Monkey, you are 20 years off, hehe.

He shares a similar last name to another famous Sabres Defenseman who also was on the USA 80s gold medal team. But they spell their last names slightly different.
The French Connection was: Gilbert Pereault, Rene Robert and Richard Martin and damn they were fun to watch.

Are you referring to something like those old Cooper Stan Makita helmets...you know, the really round ones(as opposed to the more oval CCM/Joffa)???

Yep like this one:
I think Northland made them and Stan Makita and Foligno are probably the two most recognizable guys who wore them.
But this guy above also did - he was a 50 goal scorer too in his days.
Name him without refuring to the image URL for bonus points.
Hey, I wore the Northland helmut and the Lange skates! Just like my hero, Stan Mikita!
Is that Danny Gare?

Yep Danny Gare - he could put the puck in the net in his prime!
