Buffalo Sabres Sign Top Draft Pick
The Buffalo Sabres have come to terms with their 8th overall selection from the 2020 draft, Jack Quinn on a three-year entry level deal. The contract pays Quinn $5.325 million over the course of the three years, which includes a fair share of bonuses.
Quinn's path to the NHL was a bit 'different' than most and one kids all around the world should take notice of:
Hey kids, Jack Quinn didn’t play AAA til he was 15 years old. He just got drafted 8th overall to the NHL... Please take your time and don’t rush your development. If you’re meant to get there, you’ll get there.

Quinn who's a product of Ottawa, ON is playing for his hometown OHL team with the 67s and is currently at World Juniors camp with Team Canada. The Sabres are expecting big things from Quinn at this years' tournament and see it as a positive step in his development.
