This Buffalo Sabres forward scored his first goal with the team.
Earlier on Saturday (Oct. 26), we here at The Hockey News Buffalo dove into Jason Zucker's hot streak. Before Saturday's matchup against the Detroit Red Wings, Zucker had five assists in his previous five appearances. He has kept his strong play going against the Red Wings in a big way.
Zucker scored his first goal as a Sabre against the Red Wings and did so in a nice fashion. After Tage Thompson's shot was stopped by Red Wings goalie Alex Lyon, Zucker picked up the rebound and fired it home.
Zucker now has one goal and six points over his last six games. It is apparent that the 32-year-old winger is feeling it, and it will be fascinating to see how he builds off it from here. If he keeps this up, he has the potential to be a complete steal for Buffalo.
