The Buffalo Sabres are on the longest active playoff drought in all of North American sports, but over the past few years, they've built a solid young core that may help them end that streak very, very soon.
On their roster, Buffalo have key pieces like Tage Thompson, Alex Tuch, Rasmus Dahlin with the likes of Peyton Krebs seemingly ready to break out, but one spot they aren't set at is goaltender.
Sure, Devon Levi can no doubt be a solid player and could help them for the future, but in 2023-24, if they want to be a genuine playoff threat, they've now been linked to a big time goaltender.
After a fantastic 2022-23 campaign that saw him go 21-13-3 with a .915 save percentage and 2.65 GAA, Logan Thompson was key in the Vegas Golden Knights Cup run, and now he has been linked to Buffalo.
It's uncertain what the team would want to give up, but after making a deal with Vegas last year, they may do so again, and with a Thompson/Levi tandem along with their talent roster, we could be looking at a genuine threat next season.
