Connor Clifton could play a pivotal role for the Buffalo Sabres in 2023-24, and he is yet another player who brings a physical edge.
The Buffalo Sabres filled a major void in free agency when they brought in Connor Clifton. The blueliner doesn’t boast a ton of size at 5’11, 190 lbs, but he proved to be one of the most aggressive players in hockey last season, logging 208 hits and 120 blocks.
Clifton may have only played third pairing minutes, with an average total time on ice sitting at 17:51.
