Josh Doan scored against the Columbus Blue Jackets on April 9, 2026, at KeyBank Center, adding a goal to a Sabres night that already had Peyton Krebs putting Buffalo ahead 1-0.
The goal came from a short NHL.com game clip page built around Doan’s finish, with the Sabres’ other highlights folded in around it. Zach Benson later hit the empty net for his second of the game, while Jason Zucker also appeared in the package for dangling around Igor Shesterkin for the lead.
That mix makes the clip feel less like a single isolated play and more like a snapshot of a team that found offense from multiple places. Dahlin, Thompson and Tuch were also listed as finalists for the 2026 Rico Award, a reminder that the Sabres’ attention that night stretched beyond one goal.

For Doan, the goal is the sort of moment that ends up carrying extra weight because it sits inside a larger game file: one goal, one win, and a highlight reel that keeps his name in the conversation while Buffalo’s season stories keep stacking up.
