2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ostlund had a successful season with AHL Rochester last year, notching 38 points on 19 goals in 53 games. That earned him some time in the NHL, getting an eight-game look at the end of the season in which he had no points and was a minus-6 in 10:33 of ice time per night. The cup of coffee with the Sabres was disappointing, but the 21-year-old still certainly has an NHL future given his youth and room for improvement. The question is whether or not he capitalizes on that potential in the upcoming season. At the very least, he should be one of the first call-up options should injuries strike. Read Past Outlooks

Prospect
Signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Sabres in July of 2022.
Pots first goal
Ostlund scored his first career NHL goal in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Mammoth.
ANALYSIS
Skating in his 13th career game, and his fifth this season, Ostlund got a dose of good fortune to light the lamp for the first time. His initial shot from the slot sailed over the net, only for the puck to bounce into the air off the glass and wind up landing right at Ostlund's feet for a second chance. He tied the game midway through the third period. The 16th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft hasn't been able to establish himself at the top level yet. However, he's had no trouble making an impact in the AHL, getting his promotion this season after recording two goals and seven points in six games for Rochester. With a spot in the middle six and on the second power-play unit, Ostlund could begin to make his mark for Buffalo as well.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Starting season in AHL
Ostlund is expected to spend the entire 2024-25 season playing in North America, likely starting with AHL Rochester, Kris Baker of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Ostlund was the 16th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft and is one of Buffalo's top prospects. He scored 12 goals and 23 points through 38 games in Sweden before totaling two points in five AHL games, including the postseason. The 20-year-old forward should spend most of the year at the AHL level but could make his NHL debut at some point next season.
