Asplund inked a two-year contract with Swiss club HC Davos on Tuesday, AHL Insider Patrick Williams reports.
EDGE Analysis
Asplund was a highly touted prospect coming out of Sweden when the Sabres selected him 33rd overall in the 2016 NHL Draft. Unfortunately, things haven't worked out for the 27-year-old center, as he has logged just 52 NHL games over the last three seasons. While Asplund was productive with AHL Charlotte last year, he generated 43 points in 63 regular-season outings, it seems he will head back to Europe to continue his NHL career.

Asplund was placed on waivers by the Panthers on Thursday, according to PuckPedia.
EDGE Analysis
Asplund is on a one-year, two-way contract, so this is no surprise. The 26-year-old had 44 points in 67 AHL games with Charlotte in 2023-24. He last played at the NHL level in 2022-23, scoring twice while adding six assists in 46 games split between Buffalo and Nashville. Asplund will be re-assigned to AHL Charlotte if he clears waivers.
