Rotowire
Krebs scored an empty-net goal and added four hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Canadiens.

Rotowire
Krebs scored an empty-net goal and recorded two shots on net in Monday's 4-2 win over St. Louis.

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Two points including game-winner
Rotowire
Krebs scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Saturday's 4-1 victory over Boston.
The multi-point performance, and the GWG, were both the first of the season for Krebs. The 24-year-old has only two goals on the season, but both have come in the last three games as he gets a look on Tage Thompson's line -- Krebs led all Sabres forwards in even-strength ice time Saturday at 16:28. On the season, the physical winger has 13 points, 92 hits, 43 shots on net, 40 PIM and a minus-5 rating in 37 games.
Krebs recorded an assist, blocked a shot and dished out three hits in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Islanders.
Krebs played a hand in Tage Thompson's goal midway through the second period, which gave the Sabres a 2-0 lead. With the apple, Krebs is up to 10 assists, 39 shots on goal, 84 hits and 20 blocks through 34 outings this season. While he is yet to score a goal this season, the 24-year-old forward has three helpers in his last six outings. With Jason Zucker (lower body) likely out until after Christmas Day, Krebs has moved up to the Sabres' top line and should see heightened usage in the interim. While he lacks the high-end scoring potential of other Buffalo forwards, his category coverage of 84 hits, which ranks second on the team, gives him decent streaming value in deep fantasy formats for the time being.

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Puts up assist
Rotowire
Krebs notched an assist, four hits and four PIM in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Flames.

He's at eight assists, 34 shots on net, 73 hits, 40 PIM, 18 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 29 outings overall. Krebs' mediocre offense is likely to keep him in a bottom-six role, but he had a career-high 10 goals and 28 points in 2024-25 while shooting 12.5 percent, so he should be able to pick up the pace.

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Provides assist
Rotowire
Krebs notched an assist, four hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Senators.
The helper was Krebs' first point of the season. The 24-year-old was listed on the second line Wednesday but still saw just 12:52 of ice time in the contest. He could stick further in the lineup while Josh Norris (upper body) is out, but it's likely the Sabres try a number of different lineup combinations. Krebs has added four shots on net, nine hits and a minus-2 rating through four appearances.

Rotowire

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Strikes empty net Sunday
Rotowire
Krebs scored an empty-net goal and had two shots on net in Sunday's 8-5 win over the Capitals.
Krebs placed the cherry on top of a March-Madness-worthy upset over the Capitals in a 13-goal thriller. Overall, Krebs has eight goals, 23 points and 68 shots on net in 72 appearances this season. The 24-year-old center has been one of many Sabres forwards thriving offensively as of late and has a four-game point streak consisting of two goals and three assists. Krebs is just three points away from tying his career high in points from the 2022-23 campaign. If he can maintain the momentum he has built on his four-game point streak, he has a great chance to pencil the 2024-25 season as a new personal best.

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Nets power-play goal
Rotowire
Krebs scored a power-play goal and tallied four shots on net in Monday's 3-2 win in overtime against Boston.
Krebs lit the lamp for the opening goal of Monday's contest just over four minutes into the first period. His goal came with a man advantage and was his first power-play point of the season. Overall, the 24-year-old center has six goals, 18 points and 62 shots on net in 65 appearances this season. Krebs still has time to match his career high in points of 26 but is currently off the pace with just two points in his last 20 games. What is encouraging, however, is that both of those points are goals in his past six appearances. Krebs is best left off fantasy radars for the time being but should see a good amount of ice time down the stretch, as the Sabres are unlikely to grab a playoff spot in the Atlantic.

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Scores in Monday's loss
Rotowire
Krebs scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 7-5 loss to the Canadiens.

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.
