The Hockey Hall of Famer and former Sabres defenseman is the seventh alumnus to serve as the team’s head coach.

Housley joined the Sabres after helping to guide the Nashville Predators to their first ever Final appearance in 2016. Named an assistant coach on May 22, 2013, Housley was a driving force behind one of the NHL’s best defensive groups throughout his tenure.

A native of South St. Paul, Minnesota, Housley began his coaching career in 2004 as head coach of Stillwater Area High School in Minnesota. During his nine seasons at the helm, Housley turned around the school’s program while also accepting numerous opportunities to coach for Team USA at the international level.

NINE THINGS TO KNOW:

1. Minnesota has a four-game win streak in Buffalo since Oct. 14, 2013, outscoring the Sabres 15-3. Minnesota has an 8-2-0 record in Buffalo all-time, with a 32-16 goal advantage. Overall, the Wild has points in 10 of its last 13 games (8-3-2) against the Sabres since March 9, 2007, outscoring Buffalo, 43-25.

2. Devan Dubnyk has played three career games in Buffalo, starting with his Wild debut on Jan. 15, 2015. After being acquired by the Wild in a trade from Arizona, he flew on a cross-country, red-eye flight to join his new team in Buffalo and made 18 saves in a 7-0 victory – the largest margin of victory in franchise history – to become the first goalie in franchise history to earn a shutout victory in his Wild debut. He’s 3-0-0 in his career in Buffalo, all with the Wild, stopping 86-of-88 shots for a 0.65 GAA, a .977 SV% and two shutouts. Since joining the Wild, the 31-year-old is 107-60-15 with a 2.21 GAA, a .924 SV% and 18 shutouts in 187 games – leading the NHL in games played and shutouts, ranking second in wins, T-2nd in GAA and third in SV% in that span amongst NHL goalies with at least 100 games played. Dubnyk has already matched his career high with two assists on the season (2014-15).

3. Nino Niederreiter set career highs Monday by stretching his goal streak to four games (4), PPG streak to three games (3) and point streak to six games (4-2=6). The 25-year-old has nine points (6-3=9) in 11 games since returning from injury on Oct. 31. He missed six games after suffering a high left ankle sprain on Oct. 12 at Chicago and agreed to a five-year contract on July 30. He is the only Switzerland-born player to net at least 20 goals in an NHL season – a feat he has accomplished in each of the last three seasons.

4. Mikael Granlund registered two goals and an assist Monday for a season-high three point and six shots. The 25-year-old has five helpers in a four-game assist and point streak (2-5=7) and 11 points (3-8=11) in the last 10 games. He missed five games with a groin injury this season but ranks second amongst Wild forwards in TOI/game (19:34), T-3rd on the team in assists and T-4th in points. Granlund agreed to a three-year contract on Aug. 1.

5. Eric Staal leads all Wild players with 44 points (15-29=44) in 45 career games against Buffalo. The 33-year-old has six points (2- 4=6) in the last four games and 10 points (3-7=10) in the last eight games. He leads Minnesota with 18 points (7-11=18) in 20 games this season, also leading the team in shots (59) and shorthanded goals (2). Staal ranks T-1st with five multi-point games, and is second in goals and assists. He posted his 500th career NHL assist on Nov. 8, becoming the 13th active NHL player to hit the milestone.

6. Tyler Ennis and Marcus Foligno return to Buffalo Wednesday for their first career game against the Sabres, the team that selected both of them in the NHL Entry Draft. Both forwards were acquired on June 30 with a third-round selection in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft from Buffalo in exchange for forward Jason Pominville, defenseman Marco Scandella and a fourth-round selection in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft. Foligno leads Minnesota and is T-10th in the NHL with 61 hits in 19 games this season, posting seven points (3-4=7). He missed one game after suffering a facial fracture on Oct. 12 and agreed to a four-year contract with the Wild on Sept 14. Ennis registered his 100th career goal on Nov. 2 and has five points (3-2=5) with Minnesota. He grew up across the street from Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon in Edmonton and the best friends were working out together this summer when Ennis received the call that he had been traded to Minnesota. Spurgeon tallied the primary assist on Ennis’ first goal with the Wild.

7. Jared Spurgeon tallied an assist Monday and has five points (1-4=5) in the last four games. The 27-year-old defenseman has 15 points (3-12=15) in 20 games this season – ranking 10th amongst NHL defensemen in TOI/game (25:24), T-11th in assists and T-13th in points entering play Tuesday. The blueliner leads Minnesota in assists and power-play points (1-4=5), ranks second in blocked shots (41) and is third on the club in scoring.

8. Ryan Suter registered an assist, four shots, four blocked shots and two hits in a game-high 28:45 TOI Monday. The alternate has six points (2-4=6) in the last 10 games and ranks T-3rd on the Wild with nine assists and T-4th with 12 points this season. The 32- year-old leads the Wild and ranks third in the NHL in TOI/game (26:59), ranks third on the Wild with 40 blocked shots and fourth with 48 shots.

9. Jason Zucker saw his career-high, five-game goal streak (8) end Saturday – one game shy of the Wild franchise record. It also marked the end of his six-game point streak (8-1=9) – one game shy of his career high. The 25-year-old is T-1st in the NHL in third- period goals (8) and road goals (8), and T-3rd in GWG (4) – already setting a career high in GWG, and posting three in the last six games. In 20 games this season, he leads the Wild in goals (11) and GWG, ranks T-1st in multi-point games (5), and ranks second in points (16), T-2nd in plus/minus (+6) and third in shots (51). He set a franchise record by scoring six straight Wild goals, Nov. 8-11.
