Sabres Forward Gets Tribute From Former Club & Has Big Game
The Buffalo Sabres got back in the win column yesterday (Feb. 17), defeating the Minnesota Wild by a 3-2 final score in overtime. Defenseman Henri Jokiharju scored his third of the season to help Buffalo secure two points.
While seeing the Sabres get the win was big, it was not only the notable aspect of this contest. While the game was paused, the Wild, understandably, gave forward Jordan Greenway a tribute video. This was the first time where the gritty winger played in Minnesota since being traded by the club during last season.
Greenway certainly had an impactful night against his former team, too, as he picked up the primary assist on Dylan Cozens’ last-minute goal in the third period that forced overtime.
