Sets up empty-netter in return Benson logged an assist in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Benson missed the first 10 games of November due to a lower-body injury. The 20-year-old saw 16:56 of ice time Sunday despite being listed on the third line, so it's safe to assume he'll be getting ample ice time moving forward. He's produced nine helpers, 17 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over nine appearances this season, but a couple of injuries have limited his availability, and he'll need to stay healthy to help fantasy managers.

Suffered lower-body injury Benson is out of action with a lower-body injury, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports Saturday.

Impact Head coach Lindy Ruff said Saturday that Benson has been hampered with the injury for the last two games and it got bad enough that he is unable to play. The Sabres placed Benson on injured reserve and he could return as early as Thursday against St. Louis. Benson has eight assists in eight appearances this season.

Lands on injured reserve Benson (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News reports.

Impact Benson reportedly sustained the injury late in Thursday's contest versus the Bruins, and it will now cost him a week of action. The 20-year-old has been in a top-six role with power-play time this season, so it will be a big hole for the Sabres to fill. Isak Rosen was called up from AHL Rochester in a corresponding move.

OCTOBER 16, 2025 • YOUTUBE

Four-point night in season debut Benson piled up four assists, one on the power play and one shorthanded, in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Senators.

Impact The 20-year-old winger missed the first three games of the season after taking a puck off the face in practice last Wednesday, but Benson more than made up for lost time once he was allowed back on the ice. He slotted in on the top power-play unit -- only Tage Thompson saw more ice time with the man advantage among Buffalo skaters -- and handled a top-six role at even strength, assignments that should lead the 13th overall pick in the 2023 Draft to a breakout campaign.
