Josh Norris dominates in first game back for the Buffalo Sabres against the Winnipeg Jets

Josh Norris made his return to the Buffalo Sabres lineup against the Winnipeg Jets and put on a show with two goals and an assist, including a sick breakaway goal. Norris' return was a display of what the Sabres could be getting in their highest paid forward, IF he stays healthy going forward. The Zach Benson - Josh Norris - Tage Thompson line played exactly the way Lindy Ruff had been envisioning when he put them together in the preseason. Norris and Tage are the perfect partners for Benson on a line, making it less important that he has an ability to shoot the puck.

Plus, a solid game from Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, another strong performance from Noah Ostlund, and Alex Tuch is putting up some great numbers, better than a lot of elite players in the NHL this season. How many points would you take on the Sabres upcoming road trip that begins in Philadelphia?
