It’s time: Jack Quinn aims to add thunder to Sabres’ lineup in debut vs. Lightning

‘”It’s great. I get to see the best team in the first game and go from there,” a beaming Quinn said after he was put on the Sabres’ taxi squad and practiced Monday. “It’s pretty cool. Their best players are so fun to watch. I love watching guys like (Nikita) Kucherov, (Steven) Stamkos, (Brayden) Point. So just be able to play against them will be cool.”‘

‘”Your mind is even going through this: When’s it going to happen in the next guy, the next guy, the way it’s going around the league and around the world,” said coach Don Granato. “It happens today, it’s tough for him (Thompson), for everybody.”‘

Sabres lose Tage Thompson as Jack Quinn arrives in Buffalo for NHL debut

‘“Forty minutes before practice we lose Tommer,” Granato said. “I was excited Jack Quinn was coming up and we can put him with (Dylan) Cozens and leave the Thompson line out, look at a potential threat there, and then it goes away really fast.”’

Maturity accelerated Sabres prospect Jack Quinn’s development

‘“Jack has qualities that 30-year-old guys don’t have,” Granato said. “He knows, he has a sense of what’s going on that you wish some of your older players had. He just has that feel and that’s why he’s been able to accelerate his progress and development. You come into pro hockey and you’ve never experienced it, but he can internalize that faster and more rapidly to apply and adapt, and that’s what you’ve seen in the American League.”’

Jack Quinn to play first NHL game on Tuesday

‘A bit of good COVID-19 news for the Sabres on Monday was defenseman Casey Fitzgerald came out of protocols.’

Tage Thompson placed in NHL’s COVID-19 protocol and Jack Quinn reassigned to Taxi Squad

‘Quinn was drafted by the Sabres with the eighth-overall selection in the 2020 NHL Draft. He has played 20 games with the Americans this season and has 12 goals and 14 assists for 26 points.’

Quinn, No. 8 pick in 2020 Draft, to make NHL debut for Sabres

‘”I’m excited for him because he’s done so well in the American Hockey League that there’s a lot of things in the American Hockey League that are just easy for him now after gaining experience a year ago and building on it,” Sabres coach Don Granato said. “And I think he’s ready for this next new challenge, the timing’s right for him. Again, he’s producing at a rate he certainly wasn’t a year ago, and it’s gotten a lot easier for him there. And it’s still work for him, but it’s gotten a lot easier. Obviously his statistics prove that.”‘

Quinn to make NHL debut Tuesday vs. Lightning

‘General manager Kevyn Adams cited Quinn’s “growth mindset” as one of the main reasons the Sabres selected him as the eighth-overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. Quinn was a late bloomer, having been cut by AAA teams as he spent high school playing multiple sports. That he blossomed into a 52-goal scorer in the OHL after dedicating himself solely to hockey revealed a work ethic Adams and his staff coveted.’
