Sabres' Jason Zucker: Targeting post-Christmas return
Zucker (lower body) might be back following the Christmas break, according to head coach Lindy Ruff, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports Wednesday.
Zucker has been sidelined for the Sabres' last three games and is poised to miss at least four more, given his current timeline. Prior to his most recent absence, the veteran winger generated five goals and six assists in his last nine outings, including five power-play points. Once cleared to return, Zucker should fill a top-six role in addition to seeing minutes with the No. 1 power-play unit, though he'll need to be activated off injured reserve first.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Moves to IR
Zucker (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.
Buffalo recalled Isak Rosen from AHL Rochester in a corresponding move. Zucker will miss at least the next three games, starting with Tuesday's matchup against Edmonton, after landing on the IR list. However, he could be out for longer than that. He has contributed nine goals, 18 points, 49 shots on net and 22 hits across 21 appearances this season.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Facing stint on shelf
Zucker sustained a lower-body injury against the Flames on Monday and "will miss some time," according to head coach Lindy Ruff, per WGR Sports Radio 550.
At this point, Zucker should probably be considered week-to-week, at least until the team provides a more definitive update regarding the nature and severity of his injury. Since returning from a long-term illness, the veteran winger has been lighting it up with five goals and six assists, including five power-play points, in his last nine outings. Fantasy managers can likely expect Zucker to be placed on injured reserve at some point.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Extends hot streak
Zucker scored a power-play goal in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Jets.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Tallies on power play again
Zucker scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
Zucker has scored on the power play in back-to-back contests. He has four goals and four assists over seven outings since he returned from missing eight games due to an illness. The winger is up to eight goals, 15 points (six on the power play), 42 shots on net, 21 hits and a minus-7 rating through 19 appearances. Given his recent production, Zucker should have no trouble maintaining a top-six role and a spot on the top power-play unit.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Nets power-play goal
Zuckers had a power-play goal, two shots and two PIM in Monday's 5-1 win over the Jets.
Zucker started the festivities for the Sabres with a power-play goal less than three minutes into regulation. With the tally, the 33-year-old winger is up to seven goals, 14 points and 39 shots on net through 18 outings this season. Since his return to the lineup from an illness, Zucker has seven points in his last six games and has seen top-six minutes. After the second-best offensive regular season of his career a year ago, he has been a difference maker for the Sabres, who have won four of their last six games with him back in the lineup. Zucker is a top waiver-wire target in deep leagues and has solid streaming value in standard fantasy formats.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Posts three points in return
Zucker had one goal, two assists, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Friday's 9-3 win over the Blackhawks.
Zucker returned to the lineup after an eight-game absence due to an illness, and the left winger delivered an impressive outing while skating alongside Ryan McLeod and Jack Quinn in the second line. Zucker earned his second multi-point game of the season, and he should be a solid producer if he stays healthy and holds a top-six role.

Zucker has missed the last two weeks due to a severe viral issue, and he didn't have a timetable to return. However, he now appears to be closing in on getting back to game action. The 33-year-old will remain sidelined for Monday's game against Edmonton and could also miss Wednesday's matchup against the Flames, but it seems as though he'll be in the mix to suit up Friday against the Blackhawks or Sunday against the Hurricanes.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Designated for IR
Zucker (illness) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.
Zucker was already considered a heavy doubt to play versus the Mammoth on Tuesday, but this move confirms the veteran winger won't be an option. Even if the Sabres use a retroactive designation for Zucker's IR placement, he should be expected to miss at least the team's next three outings while on IR. Beck Malenstyn and Isak Rosen could see increased minutes with Zucker on the shelf.

Zucker has recorded four goals, an assist, 11 hits, four PIM and a blocked shot while averaging 14:36 of ice time over seven appearances to begin the year.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Exits Wednesday's contest
Zucker (upper body) won't return to Wednesday's game versus the Red Wings.
Zucker was hurt on a hit along the boards in the second period. Prior to his exit, he scored a goal on two shots, giving him four tallies and an assist through seven appearances this year. He's been a steady middle-six option as well as a member of the first power-play unit, so his potential absence looms large. Zucker's status for a pair of games against the Maple Leafs this weekend is yet to be determined.

The two tallies came less than two minutes apart midway through the second period, staking the Sabres to a 5-2 lead. Zucker has three points, all goals, through four games to begin the season as the 33-year-old attempts to reach the 20-goal plateau for the eighth time in his career.

Sabres' Jason Zucker: Pots goal in loss to Boston
Zucker scored a goal in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Bruins.
Zucker scored the Sabres' first goal of the 2025-26 season with a snap shot at the 9:46 mark of the third period. However, Buffalo couldn't complete the comeback and settled for another defeat. Zucker had 53 points in the 2024-25 season, the second-best output of his career, and he figures to play a key role on offense for the Sabres in 2025-26 once again. Through two games, he's already unleashed eight shots.
