gold star for USAHOF

49. Alex Tuch

49. Alex Tuch

Alex Tuch was part of the trade that sent Jack Eichel to Vegas, and while the Golden Knights would win a Stanley Cup, the Sabres obtained serious value with the hard-nosed Right Wing.

In Buffalo, Tuch’s ice time gained considerably, and he showed his two-way value.  The power forward used his quick burst and heavy shot to put forth four-straight 26-Goal years, peaking with 43 in 2022-23.  Last season, his ability to penalty kill gave him the first season-ending statistical title, with his six Short-Handed Goals leading the NHL.

Tuch enters the 2024-25 Season with 243 Points as a Sabre.
