Sabres' Jason Zucker: Scores lone goal in win
Jason Zucker scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 1-0 win over the Kings.Zucker opened the scoring 38 seconds into the third period, and that was the lone goal of the game. He snapped a seven-game goal drought with the tally -- the winger had three helpers (two on the power play) in that span. Zucker has been a middle-six fixture at even strength, but he's seeing top-unit power-play time in the absence of Tage Thompson (lower body). For the season, Zucker is up to four goals, 13 points (six on the power play), 26 shots on net, 25 PIM, 11 hits and a plus-2 rating over 19 contests. He's worth a look in fantasy as long as he continues to be productive on offense, particularly with the man advantage.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Signs one-year deal
Jason Zucker signed a one-year, $5 million contract with the Buffalo 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.

Predators' Jason Zucker: Draws helper in win

Predators' Jason Zucker: Tallies opening goal
Jason Zucker scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks in Game 1.Zucker has two goals over nine appearances in April. The winger has played in a middle-six role for much of his time in Nashville following a trade from Arizona at the deadline in March. He had 32 points over 69 regular-season appearances, and without a larger power-play role, it's unlikely his offense takes a significant step forward in the playoffs.
