With the trade deadline approaching, the Buffalo Sabres find themselves with a very interesting problem developing in front of their eyes.
Forward Victor Olofsson is currently playing out the final year of two-year deal signed back on October 29, 2020.
At the time, Buffalo found themselves getting a young talent locked up on a bridge deal while giving Olofsson the opportunity to prove his worth to the franchise that drafted him back in 2014.
While Olofsson’s scoring tailed off during the 2020-21 NHL season, many would find themselves hard pressed to be upset about a player scoring 13 goals and tallying 32 points in 56 games for the league’s worst offensive team.
