‘Norris, 25, has produced 20 goals with 33 points through 55 games this season with the Senators. He was viewed as a franchise pillar in Ottawa after he scored 35 goals in 2021-22, but he missed most of 2022-23 with a shoulder injury and totaled only 16 goals last season. By acquiring the native of Oxford, Michigan, the Sabres ensure their depth at center remains a team strength. In addition to Norris, they have Tage Thompson, Jiri Kulich, Ryan McLeod and Peyton Krebs.’
