Goal streak at three games McLeod scored an empty-net goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact McLeod has scored in three straight games, and his point streak is at four contests thanks to an assist last Saturday versus the Panthers. The center seems to have settled in with his new team after a short adjustment period. He's picked up nine shots on net, three hits and a plus-4 rating over seven appearances. For fantasy purposes, his lack of a power-play role reduces his upside, but the Sabres haven't scored with the man advantage yet, so changes could be coming to the personnel in that situation.

Goals in consecutive games McLeod scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact The Sabres are 1-4-1 to start the year, but they've gotten more depth contributions over the last three games. In that span, McLeod has two goals and one assist, accounting for all of his offense this season. The third-line center has added eight shots on net and a plus-4 rating, so it's safe to say he hasn't been as responsible for the Sabres' struggles in their own zone. McLeod's upside is limited as long as he remains out of the power-play mix, but he's averaging a career-high 15:57 of ice time that could still allow for him to build on his 30-point campaign over 81 regular-season outings last year.

Nets first goal with new team McLeod scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Penguins.

Impact McLeod's Sabres career got off to a slow start with no points over his first three games. With the team's offense showing more life, he's picked up a goal and an assist over the last two contests while filling a third-line role with minimal power-play time. The 25-year-old center was acquired from Edmonton over the summer after racking up 30 points in 81 regular-season games in 2023-24. He should be able to produce at a similar rate this year.

The Buffalo Sabres have acquired forward Ryan McLeod in a trade with the Edmonton Oilers

JULY 5 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Involved in trade McLeod was acquired by the Sabres from the Oilers along with Tyler Tullio on Friday in exchange for Matthew Savoie, according to Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

Impact Edmonton was presumably looking to clear McLeod's $2.1 million cap hit for the 2024-25 campaign despite the 24-year-old holding his own last campaign. McLeod had 12 goals and 30 points across 81 regular-season contests, but he was likely to be relegated to the fourth line for 2024-25 after Edmonton re-signed Adam Henrique and brought in free agents Viktor Arvidsson and Jeff Skinner. McLeod might earn a role on Buffalo's third unit.

Fills empty cage McLeod scored an empty-net goal on four shots and added 10 PIM in Friday's 5-1 win over the Panthers in Game 6.

Impact McLeod has turned up his offense at the right time with three goals over the last four games. The 24-year-old forward is up to four tallies with no assists, 26 shots on net, 27 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 23 playoff contests. His recent offense will likely be enough to keep him in a bottom-six role for Monday's Game 7.

Finds twine in loss McLeod scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers in Game 3.

Impact McLeod has two goals over his last six contests, but that's all of his offense this postseason. The 24-year-old was shuffled onto the second line with Evander Kane (hip) unavailable for Thursday's contest, though McLeod still saw just 9:53 of ice time. In addition to his two points, he's added 21 shots on net, 24 hits and a minus-6 rating through 20 playoff appearances.

Responds well to scratch McLeod scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Stars in Game 4.

Impact McLeod was scratched for Game 3 after enduring a 19-game point drought that included all of the playoffs. The 24-year-old's exclusion from the lineup was a one-game thing, and he made good on an opportunity to return to action by scoring in the first period to begin the Oilers' comeback. McLeod had 30 points in 81 regular-season outings in a middle-six role. His main contributions come from speed and penalty killing, so he shouldn't be expected to generate steady offense moving forward.
