Suits up for scrimmage Crevier (shoulder) played in the Sabres' scrimmage Saturday, per Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News.

Impact Crevier underwent a shoulder procedure in the offseason and was questionable ahead of Sabres' training camp. However, his presence in the intra-squad scrimmage likely clears him for action ahead of the team's first set of preseason action. The 25-year-old blueliner had a breakout campaign during 2025-26, where he posted seven goals, 25 points, 114 shots on net, 124 hits and 95 blocked shots across 78 regular-season games. Crevier has a solid shot to make the Sabres' roster ahead of opening night, and will battle against the team's other depth right-shot defensemen, Zach Metsa and Radim Mrtka, for an everyday role. Crevier could have another productive two-way season in his first campaign since being traded away from Chicago.

Recovering from shoulder surgery Crevier underwent shoulder surgery over the offseason, but he might be ready for the start of training camp, according to Heather Engel of NHL.com on Wednesday.

Impact Crevier had seven goals, 25 points, 63 PIM, 124 hits and 95 blocks in 78 regular-season appearances with the Blackhawks in 2025-26. The 25-year-old is likely to begin the campaign as a member of the third pairing if he's healthy. If Crevier ends up needing to miss time, then that could create an opportunity for Dennis Gilbert or Zach Metsa to dress in Buffalo's season opener.

Impact Crevier will be a defensive fixture for the Sabres, giving them added size and shutdown skills on the right side of the blue line. In 2025-26, he logged seven goals, 18 assists, 124 hits, 95 blocked shots, 114 shots on net and 63 PIM over 78 appearances in his first full-time campaign at the NHL level. The 25-year-old could find a little more offense with his new team, which is further along in the competitive cycle, especially if he holds onto a top-four role. Crevier's all-around production makes him a potential deep-league target in fantasy for 2026-27.

Scores twice in Wednesday's win Crevier scored two goals, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.

Impact Crevier had three multi-point efforts over his last eight games of the season. The 24-year-old took strides to being a regular top-four option for the Blackhawks this season, though his usage is still primarily defensive in nature. He wrapped up the campaign with seven goals, 25 points, 114 shots on net, 124 hits, 95 blocked shots, 63 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 78 appearances. A little more offense and some extra blocks could make him a deep-league fantasy option in 2026-27.

Slides two helpers Thursday Crevier supplied two assists and dished out two hits in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Crevier continued his career year Thursday with a pair of helpers on Anton Frondell's two goals. Overall, Crevier is up to 18 assists, 23 points, 110 shots on net, 119 hits and 91 blocked shots across 75 games this season. The 24-year-old blueliner has six points over his last eight games. He's maintained high-level category coverage in that span with nine shots on net, eight hits and 17 blocked shots, which is tied for 10th in the NHL during that span. He holds solid streaming value in deep leagues and holds high upside in dynasty formats if he can maintain his all-around production headed into next season.

Likely fine after scary incident Crevier was in the locker room with his teammates after leaving Thursday's game versus the Flyers following a skate to the face, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Crevier had an assist in the contest, but he wasn't able to finish it after appearing to get cut on the face. However, his presence in the locker room after the game -- rather than getting further treatment -- suggests he has avoided a significant injury. He has earned 18 points over 68 outings this season.
