4/4/76:
Right wing Danny Gare scores a hat trick in the final game of the season to reach the 50-goal plateau, leading the Buffalo Sabres to a 5-2 win over Toronto at the Aud. Still two goals shy after 40 minutes of play, Gare scores twice in a span of 1:04 during the final period, beating Leafs goalie Gord McRae to achieve his milestone. A real fan favorite of the intensely loyal Buffalo crowds, Gare will score 267 goals for Buffalo in eight seasons before being traded to Detroit.
