27-Year-Old Left WingLW
Buffalo Sabres
2024 Fantasy Outlook
After a disappointing 2022-23 campaign, Greenway bounced back to his usual level last year, recording 10 goals and 28 points in 67 contests. The winger missed 15 or more games for a third straight season, though that is likely a product of his heavy playing style, which also returned 141 hits and 64 PIM. He's best suited to a third-line role, though that could still be a productive one on a young Sabres team primed to take a step forward offensively after struggling in 2023-24. Greenway's ceiling is right around 30 points, but his fantasy value is stronger in formats that reward the rough stuff -- just don't expect a breakout in his age-27 campaign. Read Past Outlooks

October 21, 2024
Greenway (lower body) is expected back in the lineup versus Dallas on Tuesday, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
ANALYSIS
Greenway has put together a strong start to the 2024-25 campaign, recording two goals, two assists and 11 shots through the opening six contests. With the 27-year-old winger back in the lineup, he figures to move into a third-line role while also linking up with the No. 2 power-play unit.

2018
Greenway was consistent from 2018-19 through 2021-22, recording between 24-32 points in each campaign, but he dipped offensively last season, contributing six goals and 11 points along with 26 PIM, 107 hits and 39 blocks in 62 contests. The 26-year-old was dealt from Minnesota to Buffalo on March 3, but the change of scenery didn't boost his fantasy value. Greenway had four points (all goals) in 17 contests with Buffalo and served primarily in a bottom-six role with both teams. There's not a clear avenue for Greenway to earn better than a third-line spot with the Sabres this season, and he's probably not skilled enough offensively to properly take advantage of such an opportunity, if he even gets one. It wouldn't be shocking to see him climb back into the 20-30 point range, but anything more than that is unlikely.
Greenway was banged up a good portion of last year, ultimately missing 20 of Minnesota's 82 regular-season games. He wasn't particularly effective when healthy, either, posting 10 goals and 27 points. Greenway is a massive winger who excels at carving out space down low, but he doesn't generate a ton of offense and sees little time with the man advantage. Greenway underwent surgery for an undisclosed upper-body injury during the offseason and may not be ready for the start of camp. Those on the fence about drafting Greenway should look elsewhere considering the unknown nature of the ailment or how much time it could cost him.
The 50th overall pick in the 2015 draft, Greenway has emerged as a reliable physical winger for the Wild, if not the dominant power forward some might envision when considering his 6-foot-6 frame and strong college scoring numbers. The 24-year-old isn't shy about throwing his weight around, racking up 182 hits in 123 games over the last two seasons, but he doesn't take a lot of shots on net or convert them at a high rate, limiting his offensive upside and keeping him from earning a spot on the power play. If that aspect of his game takes a step forward, Greenway could have a breakout campaign, but his current skill set marks him as a complementary player from a fantasy perspective.
Greenway posted a career-high 28 points in just 67 games last year, his second full season in the NHL. The winger has grown into a regular middle-six role over that span, and he adds reasonable physicality, as evidenced by his 95 hits last season. Greenway doesn't see a ton of usage on the power play, and he only averaged 14:10 of total ice time per game last year, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect a much larger role heading into 2020-21. What Greenway will provide is a strong physical game and solid secondary scoring that can help support rosters in deeper formats.
In his first full season at the NHL level, the 22-year-old experienced predictable up-and-down play for a player his age, collecting 24 points in 81 games. Some of that could have to do with the fact that he only averaged 40 seconds of power-play time, limiting his opportunities to get on the scoresheet. Greenway's 6-foot-6 frame has helped him assimilate to the NHL level, and he has the potential to be an impactful forward as early as this year. The hope is that coach Bruce Boudreau will unleash Greenway a bit more, especially in front of the net on the power play. The Boston University product is one of the top targets in dynasty leagues, but may be better served going undrafted in season-long leagues until he strings together some noteworthy production.
The 2015 second-round pick saw his first NHL action last year after finishing up his college career, suiting up for six games down the stretch and then taking a regular shift in all five games during the Wild's first-round series against the Jets. A huge physical presence at 6-foot-6, Greenway wasn't afraid to throw his weight around at Boston U and showed good offensive skills as well, scoring 92 points in 112 games. The 21-year-old can skate well enough but should improve in that area with some AHL seasoning, and it may not be long before he's pushing for a spot in Minnesota, with the potential for some power-play time if he proves to be hard to dislodge from the front of the net.

Leaves practice early

March 28, 2024
Greenway left Thursday's practice early for an undisclosed reason, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
ANALYSIS
Greenway's exit may have just been precautionary, but his status is worth monitoring ahead of Friday's matchup with the Devils. If the winger were to miss any time, it could result in a promotion to the third line for Victor Olofsson. Fantasy players may have to wait and see if Greenway is on the ice for Friday's morning skate.
