Sabres Comeback Player of the Year

[mchurchfie]

To me Jochen Hecht is a no brainer. He has played hard all year long and has been a bull along the boards. He has also been contributing much better in the scoring category and has been key in our penalty kills. Compared to the down year he had last year it is like night and day.

Re: Sabres Comeback Player of the Year

I would say Tim Connolly, but yeah... Hecht works too.

Re: Sabres Comeback Player of the Year

Connolly is a good choice but he kind of disappeared for a stretch this year. Hecht has pretty much been consistent all year long.

Re: Sabres Comeback Player of the Year

I would actually go with Tallinder. Hecht has been much better this year, but being as brutal as he was last year, that wouldn't be too difficult. Plus, Hecht is a defensive forward that they are trying to make into an offensive player. He is OK along the boards, but isn't very good in open ice IMO. Connolly is actually playing, so that is a surprise this far into the season. He is playing OK, but he isn't the dynamic point machine that everybody expected. Tallinder while playing solid this year is also doing a heck of a job helping bring Myers along.

Tallinder was the first one I thought of as well.
