Zucker found the back of the net and added an assist in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Islanders. Zucker has scored in three consecutive contests and is riding a three-game point streak after Friday's two-point performance. The left-shot winger has provided solid fantasy value in a middle-six role while filling a spot on the top power-play unit. Zucker is in a three-way tie for second on the team in points with nine (three goals, six assists). The 32-year-old has added 14 shots, three blocks, five hits and a plus-1 rating across 11 outings.

Zucker scored a power-play goal on two shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers. Zucker has a power-play goal in each of the last two games. If he can stay on the first unit, that would give him a better avenue to offense than his third-line role at even strength. For the season, Zucker has two goals, five assists, 12 shots on net, 16 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 10 appearances.

Zucker scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Red Wings. The goal was Zucker's first of the campaign, but he's settled in pretty well to a middle-six role since the Sabres came back from Prague. He has earned six points over his last seven games, accounting for all of his offense on the year. The winger has added 10 shots on net, four hits, three blocked shots and 16 PIM through nine contests overall.

Zucker picked up two assists in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Penguins. The veteran winger had a hand in a Jordan Greenway tally in the first period and a Ryan McLeod goal in the third that gave Buffalo its last lead of the night. After being held off the scoresheet in the first three games of the season, Zucker has notched three helpers in the last two.

Zucker signed a one-year, $5 million contract with the Sabres on Monday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet. Zucker had 14 goals, 32 points, 81 PIM and 98 hits in 69 regular-season contests between Arizona and Nashville in 2023-24. He'll likely serve in a middle-six capacity next season. Given that this is just a one-year deal, it wouldn't be surprising if Zucker is involved in a midseason trade should the Sabres fall out of the playoff hunt.
