[JIMpossible]

I only had this clip, and I grabbed it off a Sabres message board in 2003.

how did Buff get the 5th pick over the Rangers in 2003?

[JIMpossible]

Buffalo finished with 72 points, NYR had 78.

One of the best Non-Hockey country players ever.

Austria's best player

How the hell is he a bust?

Vanek has played 245 NHL games. He has posted 104 goals and 92 assists. 196 points in 245 career games. Only missed ONE game in his three seasons. You need to learn more about hockey before calling someone a bust. You want a bust, Alexandre Daigle.

2nd in NHL scoring so far this season. Keep it up Thomas. You are a superstar

vanek had his best years when drury and briere were here. Every other's team checking line went up against the briere line, and drury's line went up against other team's best line. So roy, vanek, and afinogenov were basically one of the sickest 3rd lines u could have. Once those guys were gone and vanek became "the man", he started slipping. He's still a great player no doubt but for that much money he should be putting up numbers like he had earlier.

@phommahaxay hell yeah!

but still, even though we are not a hockey nation we are still #14 in the world ranking which is pretty good considering how small a country we are.

vanek and canucks ftw.

One of the best snipers ever to lace a Sabres uniform. Can be streaky, but has four 30-goal seasons in his first 6.
