  • "After a disappointing 1974 that saw the 1973–74 team fail to return to the NHL playoffs as they had the year before, the Sabres finished in a tie for the best record in the NHL in the 1974–75 regular season." - A bit sloppy, as mentioned in the past GA. Can this be reworded?
  • You mention the "Fog Game" in the lead but never again.
  • "Various individual Sabres earned numerous accolades." - redundant; either various Sabres earned accolades or Sabres player earned numerous accolades.
  • Draft: Expand the prose or atleast make a proper sentence. Where did it take place? When? Why did they only have three picks? Stating "overall" in the # column is not needed.
  • Transactions: First paragraph could use a good copy-edit, remove redundancy, do not need to state Expansion Draft twice. Use chronological order, meaning Intra-League draft is first. And since there is no article, explain what it is.
  • Transactions: Use the Amateur draft info above.
  • Transactions: The → the
  • Transaction: Who did they trade with on October 14; if you give one players position, give them all, or give none.
  • Transactions: "After 11 seasons in the NHL, 1974–75 was the final one for Larry Mickey." - does that mean he retired? If so, say that. Also, that wouldn't be a transaction.
  • Overview: 2nd → second (multiple times)
  • Overview: The second paragaph is all over the place. It brings up a lot of different things, but expands none of them.
  • Overview: "The team used a several goaltenders."
  • October-December: "The team also seemed to have mended an apparent preseason fued between Perreault and Martin." The reader has no clue what this means. It needs expanded or dropped.
  • October-December: "On October 10, 1974..." What is significant other than Gare's first game? Was it first of the season?
  • October-December: Many grammatical issues in second paragraph, needs copy-edited.
  • January-February: Canadiens three-game losing streak irrelevant.


As I am not even half way through, it's safe to say this article needs quite a bit more work. I don't think rushing this through is best way to go about it, as few of the issues have been resolved. Grsz11 20:26, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
