Buffalo Sabres Where Are They Now: Brendan Lemieux

The pesky former second-round pick was sent to Winnipeg in the Evander Kane trade.

This is the fourth part of a series looking at the players Tim Murray has traded during the tank seasons of the Sabres.

Sam Reinhart was the star of Tim Murray's first draft as Sabres GM, but the Sabres' second-round pick caught people's attention too. Murray selected Brendan Lemieux, the son of famous agitator Claude Lemieux, after sliding down the draft board a bit further than expected.

He's a tough winger who has an offensive touch, which seemed like a perfect fit for the Sabres.
