OTP - Sending Levi To The AHL Is The Right Move The Buffalo Sabres signed Jason Zucker to a one-year, $5 million contract this off-season. While this signing did not generate a lot of buzz when it was announced, it is proving to be a great move for the club. Zucker, 32, has provided the Sabres with strong depth offensive production. In 19 games this season, the veteran winger has four goals and 13 points. He also notably scored the game-winning goal in the Sabres' 1-0 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday (Nov. 21).

Only Tage Thompson, Alex Tuch, Rasmus Dahlin, and JJ Peterka have more points than Zucker this campaign. That just shows how crucial of a piece Zucker has been early on in the Sabres' season. It will be interesting to see how Zucker builds off his strong start with the Sabres. Right now, the decision to sign him looks like a real home run for the club.
