Jul 1, 2026 · 2 min

Buffalo Sabres make big moves as they extend qualifying offers to restricted free agents Peyton Krebs and Olen Zellweger, while letting go of four players including Zac Jones and Olivier Nadeau. They also locked up physical winger Beck Malenstyn to a six-year, $17.5M deal through 2030. Looking back, only one of their six Russian draft picks remains under contract, but Prokhor Poltapov could join soon. The Sabres pulled off a major draft win, selecting defenseman Daxon Rudolph fourth overall after years of scouting. Development camp is already underway with on-ice sessions starting Monday and wrapping up with a scrimmage Thursday.
