Inside the NHL: Sabres winger Jack Quinn insists he's healthy. Now he just needs to score
Cadmium Appoints Sean Brady as CEO to Drive Next Phase of GrowthSports Columnist {{description}} Email notifications are only sent once a day, and only if there are new matching items. This has been a brutal season at times for Sabres winger Jack Quinn. No other way to say it. In 19 games, he entered Saturday night's contest in San Jose with one goal, five points and a minus-7 rating. Barring some major pump in production over the final 60 games, Quinn has answered the question about whether he's going to need a long-term, big-money deal going into next season. He's not getting one and JJ Peterka probably is. General manager Kevyn Adams had to keep some cap space open in case both were getting big deals next summer. Now he knows he doesn't have to and can look for more help for this team. Lots of rumors that he's already been doing that, and those will only grow if the Sabres stay in the playoff race. The Sabres' Jack Quinn has just one goal and a minus-7 rating in 19 games this season. Quinn is coming back from two major injuries. His torn Achilles in June 2023 cost him the first half of last season and then he needed ankle surgery and was out more than two months after a collision Jan. 27 with Tomas Hertl late in a win at San Jose. Quinn was back at the scene of the crime Saturday at San Jose's SAP Center. Until playing a strong game Friday in Anaheim, it seemed like he should be a healthy scratch as soon as Tage Thompson returned to the lineup. It leads to the inescapable conclusion that he's just not healthy. Quinn, who has seemed to lack much acceleration in his skating at times, pushed back on the subject of his injuries when this corner broached the subject before the Sabres headed West. "Physically, I feel great to be honest. I'm happy where I'm at," Quinn said. "It's my game that hasn't been where I've wanted it to be. I've got to get that up to par. But on a positive note, my body and physical fitness feels great." Jiri Kulich completed the Sabres' comeback with an OT goal to beat the Ducks. Lance Lysowski's takeaways from Anaheim, where Buffalo moved above .500 and back into a playoff spot. Quinn looked good in Anaheim because he was skating with conviction. He was getting to spots in the offensive zone that were giving him scoring opportunities but his shot continues to be a trouble spot, as he had seven attempts but only two that landed on net. What's been the problem with an offensive game that's produced just one goal on 29 shots? "I'm not really sure. I don't think it's luck," Quinn said. "It's a little bit more about confidence in that I've got to find a way to shoot the puck more. I'm a shooter, I'm a goal-scorer, and I feel like I haven't been able to find shots this year. You're not going to score if you can't get shots. So got to find a way to be shooting more and probably confidence correlates to some more shots." Turnovers can be an issue. Quinn nearly had a major gaffe at his own blue line Friday night in overtime but was able to corral the puck before it got away from him. And seven shot attempts is a step forward. Quinn skated well in the game, got some ice time in OT and was noticeable on a line with Dylan Cozens and Peyton Krebs. It's a small victory but it's a start. Quinn wasn't a first-round pick to be a role player. He's got to score and coach Lindy Ruff seems to have plenty of patience for him. Now he's got to reward that faith. Standings always matter Hey, social media: Stop telling me the standings don't matter because it's only November. I'm tired of getting that reply every time I mention where the Sabres are in the wild-card race or the Atlantic Division. I say it matters big-time and you might say it doesn't. The decisive vote here comes from Ruff, who put the standings on the locker room video screens for every Buffalo player to see Monday before they left for the trip. Buffalo News hockey reporters Mike Harrington and Lance Lysowski discuss why it's not too early to look at the NHL standings. "You need to know where you are, whether it’s a point or two out of a wild card or three or four or five points out of the third spot in your division," Ruff said. "You need to have that awareness. Some people say they don’t like to look at the standings. Well, we’re playing games where you have to know where you’re at if you want to know where you want to get to.” Since the 2005 lockout, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman has kept track of teams in playoff spots by American thanksgiving and roughly 80% make the postseason. Maybe only one or two teams each year make it when they're not in a spot by Thanksgiving, so it matters. Big time. And if the Sabres were 10 points out, I know darn well a lot of you would be referencing the standings with your trade and firing requests. So you can't have it both ways. PITTSBURGH – On the eve of the Stanley Cup final, one of the goofiest questions to ponder is this one: Why in the world can’t the San Jose Sharks ever do much against the Buffalo Sabres? While the Pittsburgh Penguins have beaten Buffalo eight straight times, the Sabres are 9-0-1 in their last 10 games against the Western Conference 'Jumbo' night Saturday's game against the Sabres was a big one for the Sharks, with Joe Thornton's No. 19 slated to be retired in a pregame ceremony. The Bearded One known as "Jumbo" played 15 seasons for the Sharks after being acquired in trade with Boston early in the 2005-06 campaign and helped get them to the Stanley Cup final against Pittsburgh in 2016. Thornton's first game with the Sharks after the trade came in KeyBank Center vs. the Sabres on Dec. 2, 2005, and he had two assists in a 5-0 San Jose win that was the Sharks' last one in Buffalo for nearly 10 years. From his first game with the Sharks until his departure in 2020, no NHL team accumulated more standings points (1,443) and only Pittsburgh won more regular season games (660-659). Ovechkin at KeyBank? LAS VEGAS — There's a picture of a young Alex Ovechkin that's floated around the internet for several years showing the Washington Capitals star during his childhood in Russia wearing a Buffalo Sabres jacket. As the theory goes, Ovechkin was a big Alexander Mogilny fan and, by extension, maybe a Sabres fan growing up. After suffering a fractured fibula in a freak collision last week in Utah, Alex Ovechkin won't be on the ice when the Sabres play in Washington on Dec. 15. But a timeline of 4-6 weeks leaves open the possibility of the Great Eight playing Jan. 6 in his only trip of the season to KeyBank Center. Longtime Caps website writer Mike Vogel noted that Ovechkin has missed just 60 games in his career, with 36 for injuries and the others for assorted reasons that include six suspensions totaling 10 games. The Caps are 26-29-5 without him in those games — but just 4-14-0 in the last 18. So it obviously bears watching if Washington falls out of the top three of the Metropolitan Division and enters the wild card race because Ovechkin missed a lot of time. Johnson gets his due Former Sabres defenseman Erik Johnson played his 1,000th career game last weekend for Philadelphia against Buffalo and was honored for the milestone Monday night against Colorado. Johnson's old team surprised him with a presentation from injured captain Gabriel Landeskog. Johnson is the only current member of the Sabres with a Stanley Cup title on his résumé. What was it like watching the clock tick away in Game 6 with the Cup in the building waiting to be grabbed? Landeskog (knee) has not played since the 2022 Stanley Cup final but is still trying to get his career resumed. The night of the Avalanche's clinching victory at Tampa Bay, Landeskog got the Cup from NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly and the first player he gave it to was Johnson in a move they had discussed several years earlier. A good Johnson trivia note from Sportsnet's Friedman: His 1,000th game made the 2006 Draft the first in which the top seven selections reached that milestone. Retired former Sabres captain Kyle Okposo went No. 7 and got to 1,000 last November. Picks 2 through 6 were Jordan Staal, Jonathan Toews, Nicklas Backstrom, Phil Kessel and Derick Brassard. The only one still active is Staal, now in his 12th season in Carolina after six in Pittsburgh. Around the boards • Tweet on old friend Jeff Skinner from veteran Edmonton-based columnist Mark Spector of Sportsnet during the Oilers' 5-3 loss Thursday night to Minnesota: " Oilers a train wreck in their own zone on Minny's 3-2 goal. Skinner flees zone rather than collecting a puck, leads to the goal. If there was a fifth line, (coach Kris) Knoblauch would put him on it at this point." Major ouch. • In the wake of the Hockey Hall of Fame's latest induction ceremony, quite the dilemma has already emerged for next season. There is a limit of four males in the player category and the list of first-time eligibles includes luminaries like Thornton, Zdeno Chara, Ryan Getzlaf, Duncan Keith and Carey Price. Which one of those five gets left out? Yikes. And you can thus forget about Alexander Mogilny or Keith Tkachuk getting a call next year. • Florida coach Paul Maurice , speaking on his multiyear contract extension signed last month, to Pierre LeBrun of the Athletic "If you don’t get it done, it becomes a conversation: 'What’s going to happen?' And you actually start getting asked that toward the end of the year and the playoffs, which is the last thing you would want. It wasn’t a negotiation. (Panthers GM Bill Zito) made me a real generous offer. I said, 'Thank you very much.' And that was it." • More Maurice, giving a tip to Chicago reporters before the Blackhawks beat the Panthers for the third straight year in United Center with Thursday's 3-1 win: " You guys came to the rink for 20 years, won Stanley Cups and beat the hell out of everybody, and you just assume that's the way it should go every year. But you've got good young players. Got a superstar (Connor Bedard). It's just a matter of time." • Connor McDavid is 27 and got his 1,000th career point earlier this month for Edmonton. The next-youngest active player past 1,000 is Toronto's John Tavares — and he's 34. It seems McDavid will have a legitimate shot at joining Wayne Gretzky as the only 2,000-point men in NHL history someday.
