Sabres Claim 2022 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic

Vinny Hinostroza (Notre Dame) notched two goals and Tage Thompson (Connecticut) sealed matters with an empty-net tally as the Buffalo Sabres took the 2022 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic from the Toronto Maple Leafs by a 5-2 count outdoors in Hamilton, Ont. on Sunday afternoon.

Hinostroza, who also assisted on Buffalo's first goal of the afternoon, put the Sabres ahead, 3-2, on a bad angle shot just over five minutes into the third period. After Kyle Okposo (Minnesota) helped set up an insurance goal over eight minutes later, Thompson sent a puck into an empty Toronto net with 2:25 remaining in regulation to close out the scoring. It was Thompson's 24th goal of the season, and went along with the assist he drew on Hinostroza's first goal of the day.

Alexander Kerfoot (Harvard) assisted on Toronto's second goal, as the Sabres outshot the Maple Leafs, 38-36, before 26,119 spectators at Hamilton's Tim Hortons Field. The two teams combined to go 0-for-7 on the power play. The Sabres were the first U.S.-based team to participate in the Heritage Classic, in its sixth iteration, and also became the first American club to win what had previously been an all-Canadian event.
