Krebs scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Sharks. - Krebs snapped a three-game slump with the first-period tally. The 23-year-old continues to play in a fourth-line role, though he was able to avoid getting lost in the shuffle when head coach Lindy Ruff shortened the bench in the third period. Krebs is up to three goals, four assists, 15 shots on net, 15 PIM, 29 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 20 appearances. He's not really a standout in any one area, so he has limited usefulness in fantasy. |

Krebs scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 7-5 loss to the Canadiens. - Krebs has two points over his last three games, but offense is likely to remain sporadic for him as long as he's on the fourth line. The 23-year-old center is up to five points, 10 shots on net, 25 hits and 13 PIM over 15 appearances. Krebs could help in deep fantasy formats that reward his physical playing style. |

Krebs recorded an assist, three hits and two PIM in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Rangers. - Krebs helped out on linemate Sam Lafferty's goal in the second period, which chased Igor Shesterkin from the game. Playing in a fourth-line role, Krebs has four points, seven shots on net, 24 hits, 13 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 13 contests. He's averaging 11:40 of ice time per game, down from 12:30 last year, so the 23-year-old is likely to remain limited on offense. He can be productive in hits and PIM, but it's not often enough to move the needle in fantasy. |

Krebs scored a goal and added two PIM in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Stars. - Krebs got a shot past Jake Oettinger at 12:21 of the second period. With a point in each of the last two games, Krebs appears to be getting a bit more comfortable with his fourth-line role. The 23-year-old has a total of three points, four shots on net, 14 hits and nine PIM over seven appearances, averaging 10:56 of ice time this season compared to 12:30 per game last year. |

Krebs managed an assist, two hits and two PIM in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks. - Krebs has been confined to a fourth-line role this season. His helper came on linemate Beck Malenstyn's first-period tally. Through six appearances, Krebs has two assists, three shots on net, 14 hits and seven PIM. A first-round pick of Vegas in 2019, Krebs has rarely had a chance to play on a scoring line throughout his career. Saturday was just the third time in six games he's exceeded 10 minutes of ice time this season, and his usage is trending in the wrong direction after he averaged 12:30 per game in 2023-24. |

Krebs inked a two-year, $2.9 million contract with Buffalo on Tuesday. - Krebs is coming off a disappointing 2023-24 season in which he failed to reach the 20-point mark for just the first time in his three-year NHL career. The 23-year-old center needed to get a new deal done before the start of training camp after his entry-level contract expired July 1. Even with his contract in hand, the Calgary native may struggle to find consistent ice time following the offseason additions of Jason Zucker, Sam Lafferty and Ryan McLeod. |

Krebs scored the game's first goal during Sunday's 4-1 win over the Flames. - That's just Krebs' fourth goal of the season and snaps a 29-game stretch without a tally. The 23-year-old center hasn't quite taken the big step forward many hoped would come this season. It's just his second point in the last eight games, a stretch where he's only put five shots on goal. There aren't many signs that this will be a turning point in his season. |

Krebs logged an assist, four PIM, three hits and a plus-3 rating in Monday's 6-2 win over the Kraken. - Krebs remains mired in a goal drought, which is now up to 27 contests. He has just seven helpers in that span, and he's not contributing much else to offset the lack of scoring. The 23-year-old shouldn't be expected to rise above a third-line role with such limited offense. He's at 14 points, 63 shots on net, 61 PIM, 72 hits and a plus-5 rating through 67 appearances on the year. |

Krebs posted an assist and two hits in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Kings. - Krebs' contributions remain limited in a fourth-line role, but he's managed three points over his last seven games. The 22-year-old helped out on an Alex Tuch tally in the third period, which was the game-winner. Krebs is up to nine points, 48 shots on net, 48 PIM, 43 hits and a plus-4 rating over 46 contests this season, so he's not a player most fantasy managers need to be familiar with. |

Krebs notched an assist in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Blackhawks. - Krebs has scored just one goal in his last 16 outings, adding two helpers and 24 shots over that stretch. Barring an injury in the lineup, the 22-year-old center figures to remain in a bottom-six role and shouldn't be expected to factor in much with the man advantage, especially once Jeff Skinner (upper body) and Dylan Cozens (upper body) return to the lineup. |

Krebs posted a goal in Monday's 5-2 home game against the Coyotes. - The goal was the second of the season for the 22-year-old Albertan pivot, and he snapped a four-game scoreless drought. He also finished with a plus-4 rating, two shots on goal, a blocked shot and a hit while winning five of his nine faceoff attempts in 14:50 of ice time across 20 shifts. Krebs has two goals and four points across the past seven outings. |

Krebs recorded a goal and an assist in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Blues. - Krebs picked up an assist on Rasmus Dahlin's first-period tally before scoring his first goal of the season in the third, tying the game at 3-3. It's an encouraging effort from Krebs, who'd been struggling offensively this year -- he had just one point in 20 contests prior to Thursday's outing. The 22-year-old center tallied nine goals and 26 points in 74 games last season. |

Krebs is expected to return to the lineup Tuesday versus Boston after missing Saturday's 4-0 loss to Pittsburgh because of a family matter, according to Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News. - Per Heather Engel of NHL.com, Krebs centered the fourth line and worked on the second power-play unit during Monday's practice. Krebs has one assist, nine shots on goal and nine hits in 14 games this season. |

Krebs went without a point in Monday's 3-1 loss against the Canadiens. - While the 22-year-old pivot was scoreless, he was certainly active. He had a minus-1 rating, two shots on goal, a blocked shot, a minor penalty and a hit in 14:09 of ice time while winning four of eight faceoffs. After six scoreless outings to open the season, he'll keep searching for his first point Tuesday against the Senators. |

Krebs recorded a goal in a 5-2 victory over Columbus on Friday. - Krebs didn't get a tally over his previous 28 contests, though he did register nine assists in that span. With the 2022-23 campaign in the books, Krebs has finished with nine goals, 26 points, 78 shots and 93 hits. The 22-year-old surpassed his 2021-22 totals of seven goals and 22 points, but that's mostly thanks to him jumping from 57 appearances last season to 74 games in 2022-23. |

Krebs registered an assist in Friday's 5-4 win over the Devils. - Krebs has eight goals and 15 assists, topping his rookie output by a single point, though it's taken him 15 more games to get there. There's untapped potential with Krebs -- who was the No. 17 overall pick by the Golden Knights in 2019 and ultimately packaged in the Jack Eichel trade -- but the Sabres are easing him in as a fourth-line pivot with occasional looks on the power play. |

Krebs dished out two assists in Wednesday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Capitals. - Krebs posted his first multi-point performance in exactly one month, and Feb. 15 was also the last time he scored a goal. The 22-year-old forward has yet to produce consistently at the NHL level, but Krebs has shown flashes of the talent that prompted Vegas to draft him 17th overall in 2019 before trading him to Buffalo, so it's too early to write him off completely. |

Krebs scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, went plus-2 and logged two hits in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Ducks. - Krebs responded to three straight goals from the Ducks in the second period. The 22-year-old center also set up Casey Mittelstadt's go-ahead tally late in the frame, which stood as the game-winner. Krebs has two goals and two assists over his last five contests, and he's up to 16 points, 43 shots, 53 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 45 appearances. |

Krebs scored a power-play goal on two shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Kings. - Krebs snapped his six-game goal drought with the third-period marker. The 22-year-old was bumped down to the fourth line to begin this game, but he still logged 15:59 of ice time. The center is up to seven tallies, 14 points, 41 shots on net, 51 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 44 contests. This was the first power-play goal of his career. |

Krebs scored two goals in Saturday's 6-3 win over Anaheim. - After tapping home a loose puck in front of the Ducks net midway through the second period, Krebs fired a laser over John Gibson's glove in the third to wrap up the scoring on the afternoon. It's the second multi-goal game of the 21-year-old's career, with the other coming last March against the Leafs, and on the season Krebs has six goals and 12 points through 37 games. The 17th overall pick in the 2019 NHL Draft still has upside, but as long as he remains in a bottom-six role for the Sabres, his fantasy value will remain sketchy. |

Krebs was recalled by the Sabres on Tuesday. - Although he's been promoted, at this point it isn't clear if Krebs will enter the lineup for Tuesday's game versus Chicago. The 21-year-old forward has picked up nine points through 34 top-level appearances this season. |

Krebs was assigned to AHL Rochester on Monday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports. - Krebs was called up Sunday as part of Buffalo's lineup shuffling to keep goaltender Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen in the lineup. The 23-year-old netminder was recalled from the minors Monday in a corresponding move. Coach Don Granato expects Krebs to be back in the big club Tuesday to play against Chicago. |

Krebs was called up from AHL Rochester on Sunday. - Krebs will rejoin the Sabres just two days after he was sent down to the AHL. The 21-year-old forward has three goals and six assists in 34 games this season. He should continue to play a bottom-six role. Goaltender Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen was sent down in a corresponding move. |

Krebs notched an assist in Monday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights. - Krebs helped out on a Lawrence Pilut goal at 13:28 of the second period, which was the game-winner. After a shaky first couple of months, Krebs has racked up three goals and a helper in his last seven games despite seeing limited usage on the fourth line. The 21-year-old center now has seven points, 23 shots on net, 26 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-1 rating in 26 appearances, though it's unclear if his uptick in offense will earn him a larger role in the near future. |

Krebs has scored three goals in the past five games. - Krebs got off to a sluggish start offensively, with just three assists in his first 19 outings. He has heated up since then despite averaging just 12:04 of ice time on Buffalo's fourth line. Krebs has also been credited with 20 shots on goal and 21 hits through 24 contests this campaign. |

Krebs notched an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 8-3 win over the Red Wings. - The helper was Krebs' first point since Opening Night. The 21-year-old has been healthy scratched twice and dropped to the fourth line while losing his power-play time, so his outlook has dimmed significantly since the season began. He's added only four shots on net with five hits, six PIM and an even plus-minus rating in seven contests -- the lack of offense is discouraging after he put up 22 points in 57 games between the Sabres and the Golden Knights last year. |
None |

Krebs hasn't scored a goal in four games this season. - Krebs picked up an assist in Buffalo's season opener, but hasn't earned a point in his past three games. He only has two shots on net so far, which isn't a recipe for success in the offensive end. Krebs still occupies a spot on the second power-play unit despite dropping to the fourth line. He scored seven times with 46 shots on goal over 48 contests with the Sabres last campaign. |

Krebs will play with AHL Rochester during the Calder Cup Playoffs, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports. - Krebs tallied 15 points in 18 games with AHL Rochester this season and added 22 through 48 appearances at the NHL level. The 21-year-old will get some extra reps during the AHL postseason and should have no trouble making the NHL roster to begin the 2022-23 campaign. |

Krebs had two power-play assists in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Flyers. - Krebs has seven points in his last 10 games, and six of those have come on the power play. The 17th overall selection in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft has the skills to capitalize on the extra time and space afforded to him when the Sabres go up a man, but Krebs still looks overmatched at times at even strength, as evidenced by his minus-17 rating through 44 games with Buffalo. |

Krebs scored two goals in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs. - He potted Buffalo's first goal early in the second period, then added an insurance tally in the third.

Krebs was reassigned from the active roster to AHL Rochester on Wednesday. - Krebs has averaged 15:17 of ice time and recorded five points over 20 NHL appearances this season. The 21-year-old will rejoin AHL Rochester, where he has logged 14 points over 16 contests in 2021-22. |

Krebs scored a goal on three shots, supplied an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Coyotes. - Krebs' first-period tally stood as the game-winner, and he also helped out on Alex Tuch's insurance tally in the second. All five of Krebs' points this season have come in his nine games with the Sabres since he was traded from the Golden Knights. The 21-year-old has added 23 shots on net and a minus-9 rating through 18 appearances, though his presence in the Sabres' top six makes him a decent low-end forward option in redraft formats. |

Krebs cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Friday, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. - Although Krebs has exited the league's virus protocols, it isn't clear if he'll slot back into the lineup immediately Saturday against Detroit. The 20-year-old forward has picked up one assist through three appearances with Buffalo this campaign. |
None |

Krebs entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Tuesday. - Krebs has averaged 14:20 of ice time, 1:05 during the power play, and has tallied one assist through his 12 NHL appearances this season. The Calgary-born center has played more AHL contests than NHL, so his absence will be felt minimally in fantasy circles. |

Krebs is headed to Buffalo from Vegas along with Alex Tuch (shoulder), a 2022 first-round pick and a 2023 second-round pick in a swap for Jack Eichel (neck) and a 2023 third-round selection. - Ironically, it is Krebs -- a 2019 first-round pick -- who figures to have the most immediate impact on his new club as both Eichel and Tuch are dealing with long-term injuries. In nine games for the Knights this season, the 20-year-old Krebs has generated 10 shots, six hits and a minus-6 rating but remains pointless to start the year. While he should get a chance to play in Buffalo right away, if Krebs continues to struggle, he could find himself headed to AHL Rochester before too long. |
