Order these Buffalo Sabres players by the first season each played for the team. You place all 52 cards on one timeline, one at a time. Three wrong guesses ends the run.
Sabres players are on these cards, ordered by the first season each one played in Buffalo. A single player starts on the timeline with his year showing. Each card that follows shows the player's name and position letter, and you place it before, after or among the players already down. Choose the right gap and you'll see the year. Choose the wrong one and he still goes to his true place, but you lose one of your three lives.
Buffalo came into the league in the same expansion as Vancouver, and its first seasons are the busiest part of the deck, with much of the original core arriving close together. The middle years hold a lot of steady, less famous players. Several big names were traded into Buffalo or out of it, and those arrivals are easy to misjudge if you only remember where a player made his name.
Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
Here are 28 of the 52 cards you might be dealt, with 24 more in the deck. Their values stay hidden until you place them.
