Buffalo Sabres acquire forward Ryan McLeod in trade with Edmonton Oilers

The Buffalo Sabres have acquired forward Ryan McLeod in a trade with the Edmonton Oilers. The Sabres received McLeod and minor leaguer Tyler Tullio from the Western Conference champions in exchange for 20-year-old center Matthew Savoie. McLeod scored four goals in 24 playoff games during Edmonton’s run to the Stanley Cup Final. Savoie was the ninth overall pick in the 2022 NHL draft and made his NHL debut in November. In other league moves, the Seattle Kraken agreed to terms on a two-year, $6.95 million contract with restricted free agent Eeli Tolvanen.
