Zucker scored a power-play goal and added an assist in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
This was Zucker's second multi-point effort over the last three games. He had a brief three-game slump earlier in January, but he looks to be back on track while remaining in a top-line role. The 33-year-old forward has impressed in his first year with the Sabres, scoring 16 goals and adding 19 assists while producing 82 shots on net, 46 hits, 49 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 46 appearances.

Zucker recorded two assists, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Zucker ended a three-game slump with his third multi-point effort in the last eight contests. He helped out on the last two goals of Ryan McLeod's hat trick. Zucker's strong season has had few hiccups -- he's now at 15 goals, 33 points, 79 shots on net, 45 hits, 39 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 44 appearances. As long as he's logging top-six minutes, he should be on most fantasy rosters.

Zucker scored a power-play goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Zucker had the Sabres' lone tally, breaking up Adin Hill's shutout bid with 2:18 left in the third period. Over the last seven games, Zucker has seven goals and three assists, with seven of those 10 points coming on the power play. The 32-year-old winger is loving life on the top line, and he's earned that spot by racking up 15 goals, 16 helpers, 14 power-play points, 74 shots on net, 42 hits, 37 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 40 appearances.

Zucker recorded three goals, including two on the power play, and added an even-strength assist in Thursday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Zucker notched his first hat trick of the season -- and just the second multi-goal outing of the campaign -- to extend what has been a very productive stretch for the 32-year-old. Zucker has scored six goals over the Sabres' last five games and is up to 14 goals and 30 total points across 39 contests.

Zucker scored a goal on four shots and added three hits in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Zucker quickly tied the game for the Sabres just 31 seconds after Roope Hintz's opening goal in the middle of the second period. Over the last five contests, Zucker has three goals and two assists, which coincides with his move to the top line. The winger is up to 11 goals, 26 points, 67 shots on net, 39 hits, 37 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 38 outings this season. He's no league-winner in fantasy, but he has been a reliable forward who is tracking toward the 50-point mark for the first time since 2017-18 as long as he can stay healthy.

Zucker potted a goal and added an assist in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Zucker set up Tage Thompson's goal on the man advantage in the first period, and he added a power-play goal of his own in the final frame. Zucker now leads the Sabres with 11 power-play points this season, and he could work his way up to the top unit if Dylan Cozens (two power-play points) or Zach Benson (one power-play point) are unable to step up in that realm. Through 37 games in 2024-25, Zucker is up to 10 goals, 15 helpers and a plus-4 rating.

Zucker scored a power-play goal in Monday's 7-1 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Zucker opened December with a four-game point streak and might end the month with another productive run, as he's cracked the scoresheet in each of his last two appearances. The 32-year-old winger has been one of the Sabres' most productive players in recent weeks amid the team's losing skid, and he's tallied nine points (four goals, five assists) across 11 games this month.

Zucker registered a power-play assist and two hits in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Zucker ended a three-game point drought when he set up John-Jason Peterka's second-period goal. The 32-year-old Zucker has mostly avoided dry spells this season. He's up to 22 points (eight on the power play) with 59 shots on net, 37 PIM, 33 hits and a plus-1 rating over 34 contests. He's been playing on the top line recently, so Zucker has significant upside in fantasy as long as he can maintain that role alongside Tage Thompson and Alex Tuch.

Zucker scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Zucker got a piece of the puck on a Jordan Greenway feed, scoring the opening goal just 1:36 into the game. The Sabres didn't build off of that, and the Capitals ultimately played a better game. Zucker has been good all season, and he's been even better in December with three goals and four assists over his last six contests. He's at eight goals, 21 points, 55 shots on net, 26 hits, 29 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 30 appearances.

Zucker scored two goals and added an assist in Monday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
It's the first three-point performance of the season for the veteran winger, and Zucker extended his current point streak to four games in the process. After a rough 2023-24 campaign split between the Coyotes and Predators, Zucker has found new life in Buffalo, collecting seven goals and 20 points in 28 contests -- a pace that would give him a shot at his first 60-point season since 2017-18.
