Plus 1: Quinn Scores First
Jack Quinn opened up the scoring 2:22 into the first period with a wrister past Wild goalie Marc-Andre Fleury. Quinn’s eighth goal of the season was his first in more than five games. No. 22 is not usually as productive getting pucks into opponent’s nets as other Sabres forwards.
