  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Lights lamp Saturday

    Krebs scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.

    Krebs snapped a three-game slump with the first-period tally. The 23-year-old continues to play in a fourth-line role, though he was able to avoid getting lost in the shuffle when head coach Lindy Ruff shortened the bench in the third period. Krebs is up to three goals, four assists, 15 shots on net, 15 PIM, 29 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 20 appearances. He's not really a standout in any one area, so he has limited usefulness in fantasy.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Scores in Monday's loss

    Krebs scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 7-5 loss to the Canadiens.

    Krebs has two points over his last three games, but offense is likely to remain sporadic for him as long as he's on the fourth line. The 23-year-old center is up to five points, 10 shots on net, 25 hits and 13 PIM over 15 appearances. Krebs could help in deep fantasy formats that reward his physical playing style.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Generates assist in win

    Krebs recorded an assist, three hits and two PIM in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Rangers.

    Krebs helped out on linemate Sam Lafferty's goal in the second period, which chased Igor Shesterkin from the game. Playing in a fourth-line role, Krebs has four points, seven shots on net, 24 hits, 13 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 13 contests. He's averaging 11:40 of ice time per game, down from 12:30 last year, so the 23-year-old is likely to remain limited on offense. He can be productive in hits and PIM, but it's not often enough to move the needle in fantasy.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Scores opening goal

    Krebs scored a goal and added two PIM in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Stars.

    Krebs got a shot past Jake Oettinger at 12:21 of the second period. With a point in each of the last two games, Krebs appears to be getting a bit more comfortable with his fourth-line role. The 23-year-old has a total of three points, four shots on net, 14 hits and nine PIM over seven appearances, averaging 10:56 of ice time this season compared to 12:30 per game last year.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Puts up helper Saturday

    Krebs managed an assist, two hits and two PIM in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Krebs has been confined to a fourth-line role this season. His helper came on linemate Beck Malenstyn's first-period tally. Through six appearances, Krebs has two assists, three shots on net, 14 hits and seven PIM. A first-round pick of Vegas in 2019, Krebs has rarely had a chance to play on a scoring line throughout his career. Saturday's outing marked the third time in six games that he's topped 10 minutes of ice time this season, and his usage is trending in the wrong direction after he averaged 12:30 per game in 2023-24.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Secures two-year deal

    Krebs inked a two-year, $2.9 million contract with Buffalo on Tuesday.

    Krebs is coming off a disappointing 2023-24 season in which he failed to reach the 20-point mark for just the first time in his three-year NHL career. The 23-year-old center needed to get a new deal done before the start of training camp after his entry-level contract expired July 1. Even with his contract in hand, the Calgary native may struggle to find consistent ice time following the offseason additions of Jason Zucker, Sam Lafferty and Ryan McLeod.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Snaps long, long goal drought

    Krebs scored the game's first goal during Sunday's 4-1 win over the Flames.

    Krebs scored just his fourth goal of the season to snap a 29-game goal drought. The 23-year-old center hasn't taken the step forward many hoped would come this season. Sunday's goal was just his second point in the last eight games, a stretch in which he's put only five shots on goal. There aren't many signs that this will be a turning point in his season.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Generates helper in win

    Krebs logged an assist, four PIM, three hits and a plus-3 rating in Monday's 6-2 win over the Kraken.

    Krebs remains mired in a goal drought, which is now up to 27 contests. He has just seven helpers in that span, and he's not contributing much else to offset the lack of scoring. The 23-year-old shouldn't be expected to rise above a third-line role with such limited offense. He's at 14 points, 63 shots on net, 61 PIM, 72 hits and a plus-5 rating through 67 appearances on the year.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Nabs assist in win

    Krebs posted an assist and two hits in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Kings.

    Krebs' contributions remain limited in a fourth-line role, but he's managed three points over his last seven games. The 22-year-old helped out on an Alex Tuch tally in the third period, which was the game-winner. Krebs is up to nine points, 48 shots on net, 48 PIM, 43 hits and a plus-4 rating over 46 contests this season, so he's not a player most fantasy managers need to be familiar with.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Bags apple Thursday

    Krebs notched an assist in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Blackhawks.

    Krebs has scored just one goal in his last 16 outings, adding two helpers and 24 shots over that stretch. Barring an injury in the lineup, the 22-year-old center figures to remain in a bottom-six role and shouldn't be expected to factor in much with the man advantage, especially once Jeff Skinner (upper body) and Dylan Cozens (upper body) return to the lineup.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Bags second goal of season

    Krebs posted a goal in Monday's 5-2 home win against the Coyotes.

    The goal was the second of the season for the 22-year-old Albertan pivot, and he snapped a four-game scoreless drought. He also finished with a plus-4 rating, two shots on goal, a blocked shot and a hit while winning five of his nine faceoff attempts in 14:50 of ice time across 20 shifts. Krebs has two goals and four points across the past seven outings.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Goal, assist in loss

    Krebs recorded a goal and an assist in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Blues.

    Krebs picked up an assist on Rasmus Dahlin's first-period tally before scoring his first goal of the season in the third, tying the game at 3-3. It's an encouraging effort from Krebs, who'd been struggling offensively this year -- he had just one point in 20 contests prior to Thursday's outing. The 22-year-old center tallied nine goals and 26 points in 74 games last season.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Set to return Tuesday

    Krebs is expected to return to the lineup Tuesday versus Boston after missing Saturday's 4-0 loss to Pittsburgh because of a family matter, according to Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News.

    Per Heather Engel of NHL.com, Krebs centered the fourth line and worked on the second power-play unit during Monday's practice. Krebs has one assist, nine shots on goal and nine hits in 14 games this season.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Scoreless in Monday's loss

    Krebs went without a point in Monday's 3-1 loss against the Canadiens.

    While the 22-year-old pivot was scoreless, he was certainly active. He had a minus-1 rating, two shots on goal, a blocked shot, a minor penalty and a hit in 14:09 of ice time while winning four of eight faceoffs. After six scoreless outings to open the season, he'll keep searching for his first point Tuesday against the Senators.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Scores goal in finale

    Krebs recorded a goal in a 5-2 victory over Columbus on Friday.

    Krebs didn't get a tally over his previous 28 contests, though he did register nine assists in that span. With the 2022-23 campaign in the books, Krebs has finished with nine goals, 26 points, 78 shots and 93 hits. The 22-year-old surpassed his 2021-22 totals of seven goals and 22 points, but that's mostly thanks to him jumping from 57 appearances last season to 74 games in 2022-23.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Earns assist as Sabres prevail

    Krebs registered an assist in Friday's 5-4 win over the Devils.

    Krebs has eight goals and 15 assists, topping his rookie output by a single point, though it's taken him 15 more games to get there. There's untapped potential with Krebs -- who was the No. 17 overall pick by the Golden Knights in 2019 and ultimately packaged in the Jack Eichel trade -- but the Sabres are easing him in as a fourth-line pivot with occasional looks on the power play.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: First multi-point game in a month

    Krebs dished out two assists in Wednesday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Capitals.

    Krebs posted his first multi-point performance in exactly one month, and Feb. 15 was also the last time he scored a goal. The 22-year-old forward has yet to produce consistently at the NHL level, but Krebs has shown flashes of the talent that prompted Vegas to draft him 17th overall in 2019 before trading him to Buffalo, so it's too early to write him off completely.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Collects two points against Ducks

    Krebs scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, went plus-2 and logged two hits in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Ducks.

    Krebs responded to three straight goals from the Ducks in the second period. The 22-year-old center also set up Casey Mittelstadt's go-ahead tally late in the frame, which stood as the game-winner. Krebs has two goals and two assists over his last five contests, and he's up to 16 points, 43 shots, 53 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 45 appearances.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Tallies on power play

    Krebs scored a power-play goal on two shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Kings.

    Krebs snapped his six-game goal drought with the third-period marker. The 22-year-old was bumped down to the fourth line to begin this game, but he still logged 15:59 of ice time. The center is up to seven tallies, 14 points, 41 shots on net, 51 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 44 contests. This was the first power-play goal of his career.

  • Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Lights lamp twice against Ducks

    Krebs scored two goals in Saturday's 6-3 win over Anaheim.

    After tapping home a loose puck in front of the Ducks net midway through the second period, Krebs fired a laser over John Gibson's glove in the third to wrap up the scoring on the afternoon. It's the second multi-goal game of the 21-year-old's career, with the other coming last March against the Leafs, and on the season Krebs has six goals and 12 points through 37 games. The 17th overall pick in the 2019 NHL Draft still has upside, but as long as he remains in a bottom-six role for the Sabres, his fantasy value will remain sketchy.
