Jiri Kulich had a nice rookie season with the Buffalo Sabres scoring 15 goals, but the team will need him to elevate to a higher level in 2025-26. How many goals can Kulich score for the Sabres this season? Sneaky Joe focuses on what Kulich's game is missing like playmaking, defense, and powerplay production.

Why didn't Kulich register a single point on the powerplay in 2024-25? A look at his skillset shows a player that could co-exist on the same unit as Tage Thompson and Josh Norris to give the Sabres three snipers all on one powerplay unit. Plus, a look at the Karill Kaprizov situation in Minnesota which is getting uglier by the day.
