  • Sabres' Ryan McLeod: Scores in loss to Flyers

    McLeod scored a goal in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.

    McLeod found the back of the net in the dying stages of the third period, but his goal wasn't enough to spark a comeback. The playmaker has only two goals in eight appearances in November but has found a way to stay productive, notching points in five of those eight contests while dishing five assists over that span.

  • Sabres' Ryan McLeod: Two points in win

    McLeod deposited a goal on his only shot and added a helper Thursday in a 4-3 overtime win over the Blues.

    McLeod slotted in on the top line for Thursday's contest as a result of Tage Thompson being sidelined with a lower-body injury. McLeod scored his fifth goal of the season in the opening frame before setting up Alex Tuch's game-tying marker in the third period. After garnering five points over 10 games in October, McLeod has picked up the pace in November by producing six points (one goal) across seven contests. Overall, the 25-year-old has provided five goals, six assists and a plus-7 rating through 17 outings.

  • Sabres' Ryan McLeod: Picks up pair of assists

    McLeod notched two assists, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Senators.

    McLeod has three helpers over three games in November, but he's yet to take a shot on goal this month. The 25-year-old's effort Tuesday was his first multi-point performance this season. He has four goals, four helpers, 11 shots on net, eight hits, six blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 13 contests, primarily playing on the third line.

  • Sabres' Ryan McLeod: Goal streak at four games

    McLeod scored a goal and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Stars.

    McLeod has scored in four straight games, and his point streak is at five contests. The 25-year-old appears to have just needed some time to build chemistry with his new teammates. McLeod saw a season-high 18:35 of ice time Tuesday, and while none of it came on the power play, if his offense stays strong, he'll get more chances there as well. He has five points, 10 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through eight appearances.

  • Sabres' Ryan McLeod: Goal streak at three games

    McLeod scored an empty-net goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    McLeod has scored in three straight games, and his point streak is at four contests thanks to an assist last Saturday versus the Panthers. The center appears to be settling in with his new team after a short adjustment period. He's picked up nine shots on net, three hits and a plus-4 rating over seven appearances. For fantasy purposes, his lack of a power-play role reduces his upside. Still, the Sabres haven't scored with the man advantage yet, making changes to the personnel a distinct possibility.

  • Sabres' Ryan McLeod: Goals in consecutive games

    McLeod scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.

    The Sabres are 1-4-1 to start the year, but they've gotten more depth contributions over the last three games. In that span, McLeod has two goals and one assist, accounting for all of his offense this season. The third-line center has added eight shots on net and a plus-4 rating, so it's safe to say he hasn't been as responsible for the Sabres' struggles in their own zone. McLeod's upside is limited as long as he remains out of the power-play mix, but he's averaging a career-high 15:57 of ice time that could still allow for him to build on his 30-point campaign over 81 regular-season outings last year.

  • Sabres' Ryan McLeod: Nets first goal with new team

    McLeod scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Penguins.

    McLeod's Sabres career got off to a slow start with no points over his first three games. With the team's offense showing more life, he's picked up a goal and an assist over the last two contests while filling a third-line role with minimal power-play time. The 25-year-old center was acquired from Edmonton over the summer after racking up 30 points in 81 regular-season games in 2023-24. He should be able to produce at a similar rate this year.

  • Sabres' Ryan McLeod: Involved in trade

    McLeod was acquired by the Sabres from the Oilers along with Tyler Tullio on Friday in exchange for Matthew Savoie, according to Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

    Edmonton was presumably looking to clear McLeod's $2.1 million cap hit for the 2024-25 campaign despite the 24-year-old holding his own last campaign. McLeod had 12 goals and 30 points across 81 regular-season contests, but he was likely to be relegated to the fourth line for 2024-25 after Edmonton re-signed Adam Henrique and brought in free agents Viktor Arvidsson and Jeff Skinner. McLeod might earn a role on Buffalo's third unit.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Fills empty cage

    McLeod scored an empty-net goal on four shots and added 10 PIM in Friday's 5-1 win over the Panthers in Game 6.

    McLeod has turned up his offense at the right time with three goals over the last four games. The 24-year-old forward is up to four tallies with no assists, 26 shots on net, 27 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 23 playoff contests. His recent offense will likely be enough to keep him in a bottom-six role for Monday's Game 7.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Adds insurance marker

    McLeod scored a goal and added two hits in Saturday's 8-1 win over the Panthers in Game 4.

    McLeod tacked on a goal late in the third period. He's scored in consecutive contests for the first time since December. Through 21 playoff outings, the 24-year-old has just three goals with 22 shots on net, 26 hits and a minus-5 rating. Given his lack of production, it's no surprise he remains in a bottom-six role with minimal power-play time.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Finds twine in loss

    McLeod scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers in Game 3.

    McLeod has two goals over his last six contests, but that represents all of his offense this postseason. The 24-year-old was shuffled onto the second line with Evander Kane (hip) unavailable for Thursday's contest, though McLeod still saw just 9:53 of ice time. In addition to his two points, he's added 21 shots on net, 24 hits and a minus-6 rating through 20 playoff appearances.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Responds well to scratch

    McLeod scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Stars in Game 4.

    McLeod was scratched for Game 3 after enduring a 19-game point drought that included all of the playoffs. The 24-year-old's exclusion from the lineup was a one-game thing, and he made good on an opportunity to return to action by scoring in the first period to begin the Oilers' comeback. McLeod had 30 points in 81 regular-season outings in a middle-six role. His main contributions come from speed and penalty killing, so he shouldn't be expected to generate steady offense moving forward.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Logs pair of helpers

    McLeod notched two assists and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Golden Knights.

    McLeod has a pair of two-assist games over his last three outings, but that's all of his offense in the last 10 games. The 24-year-old set up tallies by Cody Ceci and Mattias Ekholm in this contest. McLeod has 30 points, 98 shots on net, 64 hits and a plus-14 rating through 76 appearances this season, mainly in a third-line role.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Contributes two assists

    McLeod notched two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 6-2 win over the Avalanche.

    McLeod ended a seven-game point drought in this contest. He set up both of Evander Kane's goals, giving the Oilers some rare scoring depth from the third line. McLeod has been streaky this season, earning 28 points, 98 shots on net, 63 hits and a plus-12 rating over a career-high 74 appearances.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Sets career high in goals

    McLeod scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Sabres.

    McLeod's tally was his career-high 12th of the campaign, which gave the Oilers a 7-3 lead late in the third period. The 24-year-old forward has six points over 10 outings in March, a run of production that's allowed him to see some second-line usage. He's up to 26 points, 89 shots on net, 56 hits and a plus-15 rating through 66 outings overall.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Gathers helper in win

    McLeod recorded an assist and two PIM in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Capitals.

    McLeod saw just 10:42 of ice time in the contest, the lowest among the Oilers' forwards. There was no report of an injury, so his usage is concerning since he started the game on the second line. The 24-year-old has moved around the lineup a lot amid an inconsistent campaign, though he has five points over his last six outings. Overall, McLeod is at 25 points, 85 shots on net, 53 hits and a plus-14 rating through 63 outings. He's played best when on the second line, but getting back in that role with Adam Henrique around is going to be a challenge for McLeod.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Two points in Buffalo

    McLeod produced an even-strength goal and a shorthanded assist in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Sabres.

    The 24-year-old opened the scoring early in the first period before setting up Warren Foegele for a tally later in the frame, but it was all the offense the Oilers could muster. McLeod has 24 points (11 goals, 13 assists) on the season, a new career high, and he could have some short-term upside if he continues skating on a line with Leon Draisaitl at 5-on-5.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Goal, assist in win

    McLeod scored a goal, added an assist, doled out two hits and went plus-2 in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Penguins.

    McLeod had gone 16 games without a goal, logging just a single assist in that span. The 24-year-old center has 22 points in 58 contests this season, a nearly identical level of production to last year (23 points in 57 outings). McLeod has added 79 shots on net, 52 hits and a plus-12 rating while mainly playing on the third line.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Hands out helper

    McLeod notched an assist and went plus-3 in Monday's 6-3 win over the Coyotes.

    McLeod ended his nine-game point drought when he set up the second of Evander Kane's two goals in the third period. The 24-year-old McLeod found some success on Leon Draisaitl's wing in December and January, but that hasn't translated to the Ontario native being able to drive play on his own line. McLeod has 20 points, 68 shots on net, 42 hits and a plus-12 rating through 51 outings this season, and he likely peaks as a supplementary scorer in the Oilers' lineup.

  • Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Opens scoring

    McLeod found the back of the net in Saturday's 3-1 win over Calgary.

    The speedy McLeod rushed up the right boards and received a one-touch pass from Warren Foegele for a breakaway that he finished with a shot over the glove of Dan Vladar. It was a huge momentum shift for the Oilers, as Vladar had already stopped nine straight shots, most of them being Grade-A shots. McLeod is back to centering his own line with Derek Ryan and Mattias Janmark while playing strong minutes on the penalty kill.
