NHL Transactions & Outlook

The Chicago Blackhawks acquired defenseman Bowen Byram from the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday, immediately slotting him into a top-pairing role. Meanwhile, the Sabres are bracing for the potential departure of veteran forward Alex Tuch, with General Manager Jarmo Kekalainen stating Wednesday that "progress in talks to re-sign Alex Tuch" had stalled, and the team expects to lose him to free agency. This comes as the NHL draft looms, with final rankings released ahead of Friday's first round, featuring prospects like McKenna and Stenberg.
