Peyton Krebs

Krebs accounted for nine goals and 26 points in 74 games with the Sabres in 2022-23. He spent most of his first full NHL season on the fourth line, which contributed to his lackluster contributions in the attacking zone. Krebs also got off to a sluggish start with just three assists in 19 outings to begin the year. He should be able to improve his offensive output in 2023-24, especially if he moves up to the third line. Still, Krebs may struggle again with consistency and he isn't much of a shot generator, so fantasy managers should steer clear of the 22-year-old forward going into this season.

The No. 17 overall pick of the Golden Knights in 2019, Krebs was traded to Buffalo in early November as part of the Jack Eichel deal. He was a regular in the Buffalo lineup late in the season, ultimately finishing with seven goals and 22 points in 57 games between the two teams. Ten of Krebs' points came with the man advantage, so it will be interesting to see if he can continue to produce at such a high rate in that department. Krebs won't turn 22 years old until late January and remains a far more intriguing dynasty/keeper stash than redraft fantasy target.
