Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Lights lamp Saturday
Peyton 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
Peyton 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.

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Puts up helper Saturday
Peyton 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
Peyton 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.
