Alexander Mogilny scored the most goals in a single season for the Buffalo Sabres (76) in 1993, eclipsing the club record set by Danny Gare in 1980. Gare scored 31 goals as a rookie in 1975, playing on a line with Craig Ramsay and Don Luce. 

Monday marked the 51st anniversary of Gare's overtime goal in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup semi-final vs. the Montreal Canadiens, beating Ken Dryden to give the Sabres the lead in the series. Buffalo would go on to win the series in six games and advance to their first Stanley Cup Final against Philadelphia.
