Buffalo Sabres rising star Zach Benson turned 20 years old in May and already owns 146 games of valuable NHL experience. The winger is now aiming to use everything he learned across those first two seasons to take his game to another level.
Benson, whose defensive play was tremendous for a teenager, needs his play in the offensive zone to evolve in order to reach his potential as a two-way force for Buffalo.
