Sabres Must Pursue Blue Jackets Star

The Sabres should eye this Blue Jackets star over the summer.

The 2023-24 season has been a bit of a rollercoaster for the Buffalo Sabres. In a year where the Sabres were supposed to take that next step and become a playoff team, they have taken a step back, much to the dissatisfaction of their fans. 

Because of their tough campaign, the Sabres are expected to be active during the summer. It is not a secret that management wants the club to be competitive in 2024-25. One area that they should look to address is their depth down the middle, and Columbus Blue Jackets captain Boone Jenner should be on their radar because of it. 

Jenner was rumored to be connected to the Sabres leading up to the 2024 NHL Trade Deadline, and it made sense. The Sabres desperately need a center who not only produces offensively but is also an experienced leader who plays with an edge. That is something Jenner is, so it would not be shocking if the Sabres had him on their radar this summer. 

If the Sabres added Jenner, he would be a big-time answer for their middle six. Along with that, he would work on both of their special team units because of his excellent two-way play. 

Let's see if the Sabres try to land him this summer, but it is clear that the fit is there on paper.
