Must read on Daily Hockey Dose
"Despite his impressive performance last season, where he achieved a career-high of 28 goals, the team has chosen not to pursue a contract extension with him at this time. This move suggests that Olofsson's time with the Sabres may be coming to an end, and he could be exploring other options as an unrestricted free agent after the upcoming season." - James Wilson
With Olofsson having wrapped up the previous season with an impressive 28 goals, making him fifth-highest among Buffalo's scorers, the decision indicates the organization's confidence in their up-and-coming players.
Young talents such as Zach Benson, Jiri Kulich, and Noah Ostlund are trusted to develop into formidable scorers, spearheading the team towards playoffs glory.
