Krebs is entering his fifth year with the Sabres and may finally be finding his niche.
Peyton Krebs arrived to Buffalo faced with sky-high expectations. The Canadian was a key piece of the Sabres' blockbuster trade sending Jack Eichel to the Vegas Golden Knights in 2021, and there were hopes he'd eventually become a playmaking top-six center.
That hasn't happened. Krebs' offensive impact has been extremely limited across four seasons with the Sabres — just 93 points (30 goals and 63 assists) in 283 appearances — and he's failed to take advantage of several opportunities to move up the lineup card in recent years.
