Two former Buffalo Sabres are among this year's Hockey Hall of Fame inductees.

Pierre Turgeon, who spent six seasons with the team, is one of seven inductees this year, as well as former goalie Tom Barasso, who spent two seasons with the Sabres.

He'll be joined by former New York Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist, former Calgary Flames goalie Mike Vernon and Caroline Ouellette, who won four gold medals with Canada's women's team.

Meanwhile, the Hockey Hall of Fame says former NHL head coach Ken Hitchcock and former agent/general manager Pierre Lacroix will be honoured as builders.

The ceremony will take place November 13th in Toronto.
