2025 Buffalo Sabres Player Report Card: Zach Benson -
Solid Sophomore Season, More Production Will ComeTotal Season Stats: 10 G, 18 A, 28 pts -2 in 75 gamesAge: 19Contract Status: Signed through 2025-26, $950,000 Cap Hit, RFA at the start of the 2026-27 seasonIt is hard to believe that Zachary Ruben Benson does not turn 20 years old until next month. The 13th overall pick in 2023 now has two full NHL seasons under his belt. We have seen flashes of his skill but so far his production has been minimal, yet expected from a teenager. A kid who earned his way into the NHL at just 18, despite reservations from fans and NHL insiders. Some of the Buffalo brass may have even had their doubts. But he made it and has made an impression along the way. How so with low production? I will tell you how. Zach Benson is all heart. He is tenacious, hard working and completely fearless out there. He never takes a shift

Draft Lottery Coming Up Soon -
When and Where Will We Know Buffalo’s Pick?After 14 seasons without any playoffs for this Sabres’ franchise, some of us are almost apathetic towards the draft now. Sure, we have acquired some good players over the years but none of them has delivered us a post season. Many more have gone on to bigger and better things. Others have drifted into obscurity. Buffalo could grab a player in 2025 who will help us very soon, there is a chance of that. But the better odds are on that player being selected needing development time of 3 or 4 years. It is also a possibility that the Blue and Gold brass move the pick for immediate help now. Many of us hope for a combo, draft for the future while using assets to level up the current team. We are about two weeks away from finding out where the Sabres will officially select on draft day.The first 16 positions in the 2025 NHL Draft will be determined on either May 5th or May 6th, TSN Hock
