Peterka scored his 15th goal of the season Sunday in a 4-3 win over the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Peterka is riding a three-game point streak consisting of four goals and two assists. The 23-year-old has only been held off the scoresheet on one occasion over his last six games. The German forward's strong play this season has vaulted him up to the top line and No. 1 power-play unit. Overall, Peterka has generated 26 helpers and 41 points through 50 appearances, trailing only Tage Thompson for the team lead in scoring.

Peterka scored a hat trick and had an assist in a 7-2 win against the Bruins on Tuesday. It was his first NHL hat trick.

EDGE Analysis

Peterka's first stood as the winner. His wrist shot from the left circle beat Jeremy Swayman far top corner early in the second period to push the score to 3-1. His second made it 5-2 at the mid-point of the third period when he split the D and pushed through, scoring blocker side from in front. Peterka's third went into the empty net. He has seven points, including four goals, in his last four games, and his 39 points (48 games) put him second on the Sabres scoring list, behind Tage Thompson who has 44 points in 45 games. Peterka's game continues to grow. He is on pace for 65 points this season, which would eclipse his career mark of 50, set last season.

Peterka scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Peterka ended a three-game slump with this performance. It was his third multi-point effort in his last seven games. The winger is now at 11 goals, 34 points, 95 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 45 outings overall. He looked good in his return to the top line Tuesday, but he may not stay there if Jason Zucker (illness) can play Thursday in Calgary.

Peterka had two assists in a 6-2 loss to Seattle on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Peterka has 14 points, including 12 assists, and 27 shots in his last 13 games. He has 32 points (10 goals, 22 assists) and 86 shots in 41 games this season, and his 11.6 shooting percentage is right around his career mark of 11.4. While he's on pace for a new career high in points, Peterka needs to increase his shot volume dramatically to come close to the 226 he put up last season when he scored 28 times. He's a sniper, so the goals will go up when the shots go up.

Peterka produced two assists, one on the power play, in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

He also beat Charlie Lindgren in the final round of the shootout for the winning tally. Peterka has been on a tear since mid-December, churning out three goals and 12 points over the last 11 games with four of those points (one goal and three helpers) coming on the power play.

Peterka notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

The winger has a helper in consecutive contests and four assists over six games since his last goal. Peterka's ice time was back up to 16:47 in Saturday's outing, his highest total in five games. He remains on the third line for now, but with the Sabres having lost three straight, any potential lineup shuffle would likely benefit the 22-year-old. Peterka has a total of 28 points (eight on the power play), 77 shots on net and a minus-7 rating through 38 appearances.

Peterka notched an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

Peterka's 11:53 of ice time Thursday was his lowest total this season in a game where he wasn't injured. While he's earned 10 points over his last 11 outings, he's been shuffled down to a third-line role, which limits his upside in the near future. The 22-year-old has 10 goals, 27 points, 75 shots on net and a minus-6 rating through 37 outings overall, so he remains on track to surpass his 50-point output from last year.

Peterka scored a power-play goal on four shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Peterka has broken out of a slump, racking up two goals and five assists over his last six games. Notably, he's done much of it on the second line, though his role on the first power-play unit should help to stabilize his offense. The 22-year-old winger is up to 10 goals, 24 points (seven on the power play), 65 shots on net and a minus-10 rating through 32 appearances this season.

Peterka posted one goal and one assist in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

Peterka tallied the team's first goal before setting up Mattias Samuelsson's marker, both in the second period. Peterka has recorded points in three straight games and is one of the most productive players for the struggling Sabres. On the season, the 22-year-old is up to nine goals and 23 points across 31 games while also adding 61 shots, 16 hits, five blocked shots and a minus-9 rating.

Peterka recorded two assists, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

Peterka had a mixed bag Sunday. He set up both of Jack Quinn's goals, including one on the power play, but Peterka continues to have some problems with being on the ice when the opponent scores. The 22-year-old winger is at 20 points, 59 shots on net, eight PIM and a minus-9 rating through 29 appearances this season, playing mainly in a top-six role.
