Sabres Rumors: 2 Forwards Linked As Targets This Offseason

Thursday, February 22, 2024 , ,

The Buffalo Sabres have shown an interest in bolstering their roster this offseason, with their sights reportedly set on notable NHL forwards Pavel Buchnevich and Alex Iafallo.

Buchnevich, who has spent the last three seasons with the St. Louis Blues, has really emerged as a standout player.

His offensive prowess is evident as he consistently delivered on the ice, achieving an impressive points-per-game rate and setting career highs in various statistical categories despite battling injuries.

Buchnevich's potential to significantly contribute to a team's offensive lineup is clear, given his track record with the Blues, where he has scored 75 goals and amassed 186 points over 189 regular-season games​​.

Iafallo's reputation as a long-time solid forward for the Los Angeles Kings, and now for the Winnipeg Jets, precedes him.

Iafallo, known for his work ethic and versatility, could offer the Sabres a valuable asset in their quest to enhance their team's competitiveness.

This season, the 30-year-old has seven goals and 18 total points across 54 games played.

Over his six-year career with the Kings, Iafallo amassed 85 goals and 204 total points across 420 games played.

As the Sabres look to the future, the acquisition of players like Buchnevich and Iafallo could signify a strategic move to inject skill and experience into their lineup. Photo Credit: Jeff Le-USA TODAY Sports
