"Pucks On Net" | Tyson Kozak Scores In Buffalo Sabres Win Over Detroit Red Wings

OCTOBER 23, 2025 • YOUTUBE

Tallies again Wednesday Kozak scored a goal, added five hits and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Red Wings.

Impact Kozak has scored in back-to-back games. He also saw a season-high 15:46 of ice time in this contest, likely to help cover some minutes after Jason Zucker (upper body) left the game. Kozak's been on the fourth line, but he's got a little momentum and does enough in non-scoring areas to be worthy of consideration in deep fantasy formats if he moves up a line. In addition to his two goals, he's provided five shots on net, 18 hits, four blocks and a plus-2 rating through six appearances.

Lights lamp Monday Kozak scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Canadiens.

Impact Kozak's goal brought the Sabres within one in the third period, though they failed to tie the game. The 22-year-old has a goal, four shots on net, 13 hits, two blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over five appearances this season. The Sabres' lineup has been pummeled by injuries early in the season, so Kozak should have a good chance of holding onto the fourth-line center job until the team is healthier.

Secures three-year contract Kozak put pen to paper on a three-year, $2.325 million contract with Buffalo on Tuesday.

Impact Kozak's new deal starts out as a two-way contract for the first two years before switching to a one-way contract for the 2027-28 campaign. Given the nature of the deal, the 22-year-old center should probably be expected to spend the bulk of 2025-26 in the minors with AHL Rochester. During his rookie campaign, Kozak notched three goals and two assists in 21 regular-season tilts.

Heads to Rochester Kozak (hip) was sent to AHL Rochester on Friday, per Heather Engel of NHL.com.

Impact Sending Kozak to the minors suggests he's recovered from his hip strain, which cost him the final eight games of Buffalo's campaign. He finished the NHL regular season with three goals and five points across 21 appearances with the Sabres. He also has eight goals, 14 points and 37 PIM in 31 outings with Rochester in 2024-25.

Week-to-week Kozak is week-to-week with a hip strain, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports Friday.

Impact Kozak is unlikely to suit up for the Sabres the remainder of the season as the regular season ends April 17. The Sabres hope that Kozak is well enough to play in the AHL playoffs for Rochester where he had eight goals and six assists in 31 games before his recall. The 22-year-old rookie had three goals and five points across 21 NHL appearances before his injury.

Leaves game with LBI Kozak (lower body) was hurt in Tuesday's game versus the Senators, but there was no update on his status after the contest, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Impact Kozak didn't play in the third period after suffering the injury in the middle frame. He'll have some time to recover, as the Sabres don't play again until Saturday versus the Lightning. Isak Rosen would likely enter the lineup if Kozak is unable to suit up.

First career multi-point showing Kozak scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact Both points came in the second period as the 22-year-old rookie wrapped up the scoring for Buffalo, scoring the team's sixth goal before setting up Alex Tuch for the seventh. It was Kozak's first multi-point performance in the NHL, and he's put together a modest three-game point streak despite seeing bottom-six minutes and not featuring on the power play, collecting two goals, four points, seven hits and a plus-2 rating in that span.

Finds twine in Sunday's win Kozak scored a power-play goal and added three hits in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Jets.

Impact Kozak's tally came right at the end of a power play in the third period. He doesn't normally see much time with the man advantage, and he shouldn't be expected to make a significant impact in that area. He's up to two goals, nine shots on net, 19 hits and 22 blocked shots over 16 NHL appearances in 2024-25, mainly as a fourth-line center.

Recalled from AHL Kozak was called up from AHL Rochester on Friday.

Impact Kozak played 11 games with the Sabres earlier in the season, scoring once. JJ Peterka missed Wednesday's game against Detroit with a lower-body injury and is questionable Saturday versus Vegas, necessitating Kozak's recall as the Sabres have only 12 healthy forwards. Kozak had eight goals and six assists in 31 AHL games before his recall.
