Is Jack Quinn poised for a big season?

If he stays healthy, 30+ goals. This dude is the truth.

Geez.  Your presence ]is quite a breath of fresh air today.

My theory: That kid 2 doors down took up the trumpet this school year. And what with the weather being so nice -- it makes it difficult to fit in that afternoon nap.

I've said it a bunch here: Quinn's my favourite player on the roster right now. I just love watching him compete and operate.

He's gonna be SUCH a good effing hockey player for years to come. I do hope it's with the Sabres.**

Quinn's game is going to be tailor made for the playoffs too.

** But, you never know, there could be some cost-controlled elite slightly underperforming prospect out there who might catch Terry's/Kevyn's eye.

This is where I am too.  I just wish I felt more confident about him staying healthy.  But his game is terrific.

Quinn's career shooting percentage is about 13%. Can he shoot 15% over a full season? yeah, not a stretch.

Now, where can he play where you can get him 250 shots per season? He functions best between the dots.

250 shots at 15% is 37 goals.

I think Quinn is going to have a monster year, close to 40/40, helping to propel us into the playoffs. The season hasn't started, thus optimism abounds!!

BOOM!

Just some food for thought:

Since the days when Pat Lafontiane skated for the Sabres in 1995, the team has had a total of 7 player seasons of 80+ points. 7 in 30 years. We’ve made the playoffs 9 times in that stretch. 

The last time a player as young as Quinn had 80, we have to go back to 2018/19 and Jack Eichel. Before him, to find the last player to be 23 or younger in a sabres sweeter and reach 80 we’d have to go back to Alexander Mogilny in 1992-1993.

Since Pat:

Briere, Vanek / Roy, Pominville / Eichel / Thompson, Tuch

If Quinn does reach 80, it’ll be a Sabres season for the ages relatively. I’m here for it

Edit: forgot Jeffrey Skinner in 22-23, 3 guys that year!

I fear he will have another season hampered by injury.
