The Sabres have acquired Jordan Greenway from the Wild for a 2023 2nd Round Pick and a 2024 5th Round Pick.

A second-round pick in the 2016 NHL entry draft, Greenway's development stalled after a 12-goal rookie campaign in the 2018-19 season. He has just two goals and five assists in 45 games this season, though he's been limited to an ATOI of 13:18. He gets a welcomed change of scenery with the Sabres.
