Jack Quinn
Quinn burst onto the scene for two NHL games before an injury derailed his development. Still, he put up a goal and an assist. Before and after his cameo with the Sabres, Quinn also played lights out with the Amerks.
In 28 games, Quinn logged 42 points including 21 goals and 21 assists. Given his performances in Rochester, it makes sense to see him return to the Sabres before the end of the season for another cameo. But if he remains in Rochester, look for him to find a spot on the second line in 2022-23.
Expect him to line up at wing, preferably right-wing, on the second line since Alex Tuch, Tage Thompson, and Jeff Skinner will man the top scoring line until further notice. Still, it should come as no surprise if Quinn’s performances eventually land him on the top scoring line.
Ideally, we would have seen more of him this season, but the injury. Still, he’s already shown he can play in the NHL.
