The Buffalo Sabres have loaned forwards Isak Rosen and Josh Dunne to their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Rochester Americans.

Buffalo Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff, after the 4 Nations break, had a plan to keep his club motivated to make a late run and challenge for a playoff spot. He planned to earn seven points in each five-game block and win the final three games of the regular season to reach 90 points. That plan did not work, as the Sabres fell short in the first five-game block and endured a six-game winless skid before a 3-2 win over Edmonton on Monday.

The Buffalo Sabres made some significant roster changes before the NHL trade deadline, including trading center Dylan Cozens to Ottawa. However, GM Kevyn Adams also accomplished one of his stated goals before 3 p.m. last Friday: signing veteran forwards Jordan Greenway and Jason Zucker to contract extensions.

Former Buffalo Sabres forward Dylan Cozens had a strong debut with the Ottawa Senators on March 8. During that matchup, the 6-foot-3 forward recorded an assist and threw a career-high nine hits.

The Buffalo Sabres made a series of moves on NHL Trade Deadline day, including a four-player deal sending center Dylan Cozens and defensemen Dennis Gilbert to the Ottawa Senators, defenseman Henri Jokiharju to the Boston Bruins, and forward Nicolas Aube-Kubel to the NY Rangers, but three former Sabres are also were headed for new destinations.

Right before the 2025 NHL trade deadline, the Buffalo Sabres signed forward Jason Zucker to a two-year, $9.5 million ($4.75 million AAV) contract. It was no secret that the Sabres were interested in keeping the veteran forward around, and they did just that by getting him signed to this extension.

Leading up to the 2025 NHL trade deadline, Buffalo Sabres forward JJ Peterka was creating plenty of chatter as a trade candidate. With the Sabres having another extremely disappointing season, Peterka generated interest.

After months of rumors, the Buffalo Sabres traded Dylan Cozens to the Ottawa Senators on deadline day. The Sabres sent Cozens, Dennis Gilbert, and a 2026 second-round pick to Ottawa in exchange for Josh Norris and Jacob Bernard-Docker.

The Buffalo Sabres roster went through a significant turnover on NHL Trade Deadline day, as center Dylan Cozens, defensemen Dennis Gilbert and Henri Jokiharju and minor leaguer Nicolas Aube-Kubel were dealt to Ottawa, Boston, and the NY Rangers, with center Josh Norris and blueliners Jacob Bernard-Docker and Erik Brannstrom headed to the Sabres, but there could be more lineup changes in store for Buffalo in the final game of their two-game Florida road swing against the Stanley Cup Champion Pant
