Supplies helper Sunday Thompson notched an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Lightning.
Impact Thompson had gone eight games without an assist, though he was more than fine on offense with eight goals in that stretch. He set up a Jiri Kulich tally in the first period of Sunday's defeat. Thompson has been arguably the Sabres' best player this season with 44 goals, 28 assists, 235 shots on net, 69 hits and a plus-2 rating over 74 appearances. He'll likely close out the campaign on the top line.

Extends goal streak with winner Thompson scored the game-winning goal in Tuesday's 3-0 victory over the Hurricanes.
Impact He snapped a puck past Pyotr Kochetkov early in the second period to open the scoring, and it was all the support James Reimer would need. Thompson has found the back of the net in five straight games, racking up eight tallies in total over that hot streak, and he's up to 44 goals and 71 points in 71 appearances on the season. With five games left on the Sabres' schedule, Thompson needs three more goals to tie his career high.

Nets hat trick Sunday Thompson recorded a hat trick in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.
Impact Thompson has scored in four games in a row and is having an excellent end to what has been one of the best seasons of his career. He's not going to reach the 90-point plateau as he did in 2022-23, but he's only four goals away from tying his best scoring mark in a single season. He's also notched 10 points (nine goals, one assist) over his last seven appearances.

Nets goal No. 40 Thompson scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Lightning.
Impact Thompson has six goals and an assist over his last six games, which ended up being a sprint to the 40-goal mark this season. It's the second time in his career that Thompson has reached that level, though he's at 67 points through 69 appearances in 2024-25 compared to 94 points (47 goals, 47 assists) in 78 games in 2022-23. The 27-year-old has added 219 shots on net, 64 hits, 33 PIM and an even plus-minus rating as a top-line fixture this season, though he's often played on the wing while Jiri Kulich or Ryan McLeod line up at center.

Closing in on 40-goal mark Thompson scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Senators.
Impact Thompson has five goals and one assist over his last five outings as he makes a late-season push up the scoring charts. The 27-year-old's tally Tuesday was the game-winner, his fifth such goal this season. He's at 39 goals, 66 points, 215 shots on net, 63 hits and a minus-1 rating through 68 contests overall. He could join the 40-goal club for the second time in his career, but he'll likely come up short of the career-best 47 he netted in 2022-23.

Finds twine twice Sunday Thompson netted two power-play goals and fired six shots on net in Sunday's 8-5 win over Washington.
Impact Both of Thompson's tallies were scored with a man advantage. His first goal tied the game at one apiece before his second tally put the Sabres up 5-3. The 27-year-old star has 38 goals, 65 points and 213 shots on net in 67 appearances this season. Thompson's two goals Sunday helped him tie his second-highest goal total in a season with 38, which he also scored in the 2021-22 campaign. He is currently tied for third in the NHL in goals with Tampa Bay's Brayden Point and Winnipeg's Kyle Connor. Thompson has shot the puck exceptionally well in March with 10 goals in March and 14 points overall. With the pressure off as the Sabres are close to being eliminated from the playoffs, Thompson should continue to thrive in fantasy and could break the 70-point mark for the second time in his career.
