Afinogenov. Guy was electric… every once in a while

Victor Goalofsson. Guy scored almost 30 2 years ago, and has an incredible nickname. Heard he was gonna be in Vegas’ top 6.

Does it have to be a player or I suggest Pat Lafontaine as President of hockey ops?

Rasmus Ristolainen was overrated by the majority of the fanbase for most of his tenure

Olofsson lately but I think most fans have come around now.

I want to say Eichel but I’ll go with Tyler Myers.

I’ll be honest this is a tough one. Because most players we think of that were good *were* good. There’s so few guys people think are good that weren’t

Ristolainen. He was supposed to be an elite RHD. Lolol.

Jeff Skinner… too soon?

Ville Leino. High expectations, dismal results.

Y’all don’t wanna hear it… but Stu Barnes is the answer.

Andrew Peters. Yes, his job wasn’t to play hockey, but he sucked at it and as a fighter he was fine but meh.

Fuck it I’ll leave my original answer below but I’m changing it. Most overated is Eichel.
Saw someone saw we leave him out cause he’s still a very good player…. Nah fuck that, we saw him as the second coming, trash talked leafs fans saying he’s better than Matthews and the only thing Matthews is better at is scoring… One of those guys is consistently a top 5 centre in the league and it sure as fuck isn’t Eichel. We had the homer goggles on HAAAAAARRRRD and convinced ourselves a really good player was the next Messier to Gretzky (McDavid being this eras Gretzky).
Jason Pomminville.
The guy was adored while here and we need to balance out the ridiculousness that is saying he is the most underrated. Population of Pomminville signs were more popular than let’s go sabres fans when we had Vanek potting 40.
Actual answer should be Vanek or a guy like Brian Campbell.

I’m gonna get shit for this, but Ryan Miller. I love the guy, but what did he REALLY accomplish with us?

Danny Gare. Good/great career but not number retirement worthy.

Surprised no one mentioned Taylor Hall. People were loosing their minds when we signed him.

Alex Tuch.
He’s got a big career boost from playing with a freak like Tage and an elite 5-on-5 scorer in Jeff Skinner. In reality, he’s a solid middle six piece on the first line who somehow gets captain consideration because he was born in a city 2ish hours away form Buffalo.
