Four top prospects and three Buffalo Sabres alumni recently took to Martin Luther King Jr. Park in Buffalo ahead of the 2016 NHL Draft for the fifth annual NHL Green Legacy Tree Project.
The tree project began in Pittsburgh before the 2012 NHL Draft. Prospects and team alumni plant 30 trees, one for each of the League's member teams, at a park in the draft's host city. Draft-eligible players Jakob Chychrun, Adam Fox, Kieffer Bellows and Lucas Johansen joined Sabres alumni Rob Ray, Danny Gare and Rene Robert to help the park in east Buffalo.
