2025 Fantasy Outlook
Kozak played 21 games with Buffalo during the 2024-25 regular season, recording three goals and two assists. Fresh off of signing a three-year deal in the offseason, the 22-year-old is no longer exempt from waivers. Still, he could spend most of the 2025-26 season with AHL Rochester, where he had 18 points in 39 games, including playoffs, last campaign. Assuming he continues to play well at the minor-league level, Kozak stands to be one of the top call-up options for the Sabres. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $2.325 million contract with the Sabres in July of 2025.
Secures three-year contract
Kozak put pen to paper on a three-year, $2.325 million contract with Buffalo on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Kozak's new deal starts out as a two-way contract for the first two years before switching to a one-way deal for the 2027-28 campaign. Given the nature of the agreement, the 22-year-old center should probably be expected to spend the bulk of 2025-26 in the minors with AHL Rochester. During his rookie campaign, Kozak notched three goals and two assists in 21 regular-season tilts with the Sabres.
