Buffalo Sabres Sign a new Big key players Form Montreal Canadiens…

We are only in the month of June, but it’s never too early to start thinking about next year if you’re the Buffalo Sabres. After a disappointing 2023/2024 season, it’s time to turn the page. While October is four months away, let’s discuss next year.

Even though the draft and free agency have not happened yet, let’s get crazy! In this article, I’m going to give three predictions for the team next season. Whether it’s a specific player or the organization itself, I got a couple of predictions. Enough talk, here are my predictions!

There is no denying that it was a regressing year for Sabres forward Dylan Cozens. While he wasn’t the only player who took a step back, his numbers from this season were definitely concerning. In 79 games played, Cozens scored 18 goals and registered 29 assists for 47 points and was a -4.

In the IIHF World Championships though, Cozens shined. While it didn’t help Buffalo, it was good to see the Workhorse from Whitehorse have a good tournament. Looking ahead to next season, I think Dylan responds in a big way as I predict him to score 40 goals.

It was a down year for him, but with him under new head coach Lindy Ruff, Cozens will find his scoring touch. During the 2022/2023 season, he scored 31 goals and earned himself a well-deserved contract extension. He struggled defensively as well, but I see him having a bounce back year in 2024/2025.

Dylan is one of the most accountable players on the team and it’s possible he could be one of the alternate captains next season. Hopefully, he can find his game next year because he is a vital piece on a team trying to take the next step.
