Jordan Greenway signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday. It has an average annual value of $4 million. The forward is in the final season of a three-year contract he signed with the Minnesota Wild on Jan. 31, 2022, and could have become an unrestricted free agent after the season.

With the NHL trade deadline looming the Sabres and Greenway agreed to a two-year extension worth approximately $4 million per season.

The Buffalo Sabres announced Wednesday that they have re-signed the veteran to a two-year, $8 million contract extension. Greenway, 28, was in the final year of his deal but is now under contract with Buffalo through the 2026-27 season.

It took until roughly 48 hours before the NHL trade deadline, but Jordan Greenway and the Buffalo Sabres were able to reach a contract extension. And despite it happening so close to the deadline, Greenway said Thursday he was always confident the two sides could come to an agreement.

I’m happy to be in Buffalo for another two years.” Greenway, 28, has established himself as a versatile, respected veteran on an exceedingly young roster in the two years since the Sabres acquired him from the Minnesota Wild ahead of the 2023 trade deadline.
