Season Re-run: Drew Stafford

Now we'll take a look at the Season that saw Drew Stafford record a career year. In SNM's NHL preview, they predicted Stafford to be the Sabres lead breakout candidate, and boy did he have just that season. Stafford had a career high 31 goals, 21 assists, 52 points (also a CH) and was a +13. He also tied for the NHL lead with 4 hat-tricks, scoring all of them within 60 days of one another. He finally became the 30 goal, 50 point man that the Sabres need him to be. And if he plays like this for the rest of his career, then the Sabres are bound to succeed. It seemed if there was ever a game this year where the Sabres needed a big goal, Stafford was always the go to guy. Here are the videos of his 4 hatters.

12/15 vs Boston(I was at that game.)

1/1/11 vs Boston

2/8/11 @ Tampa Bay

And 2/13/11 vs Islanders

Stafford certainly did prove himself to be a great player this year.
