  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Two points in Wednesday's loss

    Thompson scored a goal and added an assist in Wednesday's 7-3 loss to the Red Wings.

    Both points came in the first period while the outcome was still in doubt. Thompson has found the back of the net six times in seven games to begin the month of March, but Wednesday's helper was his first since Feb. 22. On the season, the 27-year-old has piled up 34 goals and 58 points in 58 appearances, and he seems to have found immediate chemistry with new center Josh Norris, offering the possibility of a big finish to the campaign.

  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Lights lamp twice in win

    Thompson scored two goals, including the game-winner, in Monday's 3-2 victory over the Oilers.

    The 27-year-old opened and closed the book on the night's offense, banging home the rebound on his own shot in the first period and then out-waiting Stuart Skinner as he drifted across the front of the net in the third. Thompson has tickled twine five times in the last five games, extending a hot streak that has seen him light the lamp an impressive 14 times in his last 17 appearances.

  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Goals in three straight games

    Thompson scored a power-play goal on five shots, added two hits, blocked two shots and logged two PIM in Thursday's 6-5 loss to the Lightning.

    Thompson's goal put the Sabres ahead 4-3 in the second period, but their lead evaporated as Jake Guentzel had a hat trick in that frame. This was Thompson's third straight game with a goal. The 27-year-old forward is up to 31 tallies, 54 points, 174 shots on net, 55 hits and a plus-4 rating across 55 appearances. He'll likely surpass last year's 56-point output -- he's on track to top the 40-goal and 70-point marks.

  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Tallies in overtime loss

    Thompson scored a goal on five shots in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canadiens.

    Thompson had gone three games without a point prior to Monday. The 27-year-old has matched his 71-game goal total from last season (29), putting him on the brink of a return to the 30-goal level. He's also contributed 23 assists, 167 shots on net, 50 hits and a plus-4 rating over 53 outings this season. Returning to a near-point-per-game pace is encouraging, but Thompson is also shooting a career-high 17.4 percent, so there is a mild concern here with sustainability down the stretch.

  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Working through concussion protocol

    Thompson skated ahead of Wednesday's practice but will need to clear the NHL's concussion protocol before he can return to action, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Thompson should benefit from the Sabres' schedule that has the team off until Saturday's matchup with the Predators. Even if the center is unable to play in that contest, he should be back in time to face the Rangers on Feb. 22 following the break for the 4 Nations Face-Off.

  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Not playing Tuesday

    Thompson (upper body) won't play against Columbus on Tuesday, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Thompson is day-to-day after being injured in Sunday's 4-3 win over New Jersey. Buffalo visits Nashville on Saturday before a 13-day break due to the 4 Nations Face-Off. It's unclear whether or not Thompson will return before the tournament. He has accounted for 26 goals, 48 points, 145 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and 42 hits across 47 appearances this season. Based on Tuesday's morning skate, Isak Rosen will replace Thompson on the team's top line.

  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Three points before exiting

    Thompson netted a goal on three shots while adding two helpers and a plus-1 rating in 13:39 of ice time before exiting Sunday's 4-3 win over the Devils.

    Thompson was a force in limited action Sunday, but he departed the game after being on the receiving end of an illegal hit from New Jersey's Stefan Noesen in the final frame. Head coach Lindy Ruff said Thompson is "good" and passed all the necessary tests, while adding the right-shot center should be ready for practice Monday, but a rest day might be an option as well, according to Brian Koziol of WGR 550. Thompson is spearheading Buffalo in scoring with 26 goals and 48 points (11 on the power play) through 47 appearances this season. The 27-year-old will look to extend his point streak to four games against Columbus on Tuesday, as long as he's available to suit up.

  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Opens scoring in win

    Thompson scored a goal on five shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.

    Thompson has two goals and three assists during his four-game point streak.

Thompson's talented enough to play with a variety of linemates without experiencing a drop-off in production. He's at 21 goals, 18 assists, 130 shots on net, 41 hits and a plus-2 rating through 42 outings this season.

  • Sabres' Tage Thompson: Contributes assist in win

    Thompson logged an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.
