He was part of the team that sent Evander Kane and Zach Bogosian to the Buffalo Sabres. In exchange, Tyler Myers, Drew Stafford, Joel Armia, Brendan Lemieux, and a first-round draft pick went to the Winnipeg Jets.
Yet, he has never played in an NHL game as the 22-year-old is a junior on the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) men’s ice hockey team. With RPI, he has a 9-14 record with a 2.94 save percentage in 1,266 minutes and 22 seconds.

He is just 22 years old and could be signed by an entry-level contract with the Sabres moving forward.
