Kevyn Adams punctuates first Sabres draft by selecting German winger JJ Peterka

‘Trading up four spots cost the Sabres their fourth-round pick and they wound up selecting only five players across the two-day event, the franchise’s fewest since 1977, but Peterka has the pedigree and experience that few prospects have beyond the first round.’

Five things about Sabres second-round draft pick JJ Peterka

‘Peterka is listed as 5 feet, 11 inches and 192 pounds. He scored seven goals and added four assists in 42 games with EHC Munchen. He had four goals in seven games for German at the 2020 World Junior Championship on a team that included No. 3 overall pick Tim Stutzle of Ottawa and the No. 4 pick of 2019, Detroit defenseman Moritz Seider.’

Jr. Sabres alum Matteo Costantini drafted by Sabres in fifth round

‘Costantini, 18, is a St. Catharines, Ont., native who played the past two seasons with the marquee development program at LECOM Harborcenter, totaling 36 goals with 32 assists for 68 points in 50 games in 2019-20.’

In seventh round, Sabres select Swedish defenseman and Czech center

‘The second day, which consists of rounds 2-7, normally lasts around 4 hours when the draft is held in its traditional arena environment. But the remote setup and extended narration on television clearly caused a drawn-out process the league didn’t expect, creating the longest second day any longtime NHL observer could remember.’

Dominik Kahun among four to not receive qualifying offer from Sabres

‘Kahun’s agent, Jiri Hamal, told The Associated Press that he is scheduled to continue contract talks with the Sabres on Thursday and rejected the team’s initial offer as “not being good enough.”‘

Column: Kahun mystery overshadows the rest of a marathon draft day

‘Weird. Adams & Co. want to play their cards more with Thompson, going for the size on the wing. The message sure seems like if they lose the 5-foot-11 Kahun, so be it.’

Sabres sign goalie Jonas Johansson to a one-year contract

‘Since arriving in North American four years ago, Johansson has spent the bulk of his time with the Cincinnati Cyclones, appearing in 54 games for the ECHL affiliate. Injuries have slowed his development, and this could be his final season to show he can become an NHL goaltender.’

Sabres NHL Draft tracker: J-J Peterka selected 34th after trade

‘The 5-foot-11, 192-pound Peterka spent last season playing against men for Red Bull Munich in the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL), scoring seven goals and 11 points in 42 games in Germany’s top pro circuit. He also scored four goals and six points in seven outings for Team Germany at the World Junior Championship.’

Prospect J-J Peterka thrilled Sabres traded up to draft him

‘“I would say it’s a pretty good feeling that they show that trust in you and they really want you,” Peterka said of the Sabres trading up. “So I’m really, really excited, and I’m really happy for this and the opportunity I get from the Buffalo Sabres.”‘

Sabres could re-sign Dominik Kahun after passing on qualifying offer

‘Kahun looked impressive in six games after arriving from the Pittsburgh Penguins before the trade deadline, scoring two goals and four points. The German quickly earned praise from Sabres coach Ralph Krueger, who has spent most of his career in Europe.’
