Date News Advice
March 7, 2024 Olofsson scored his fifth goal of the season in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs. - Returning to the lineup for the first time since Feb. 15, Olofsson wired a shot over Ilya Samsonov's glove on the rush in the second period. The 28-year-old winger had missed the prior nine games with an illness, but he was having trouble staying out of the press box even before that. Olofsson's suited up for only 36 games this season, mainly skating in a bottom-six role and managing just 13 points, but the Casey Mittelstadt trade could at least open up a consistent spot for him now that he's healthy. None
Feb. 25, 2024 Olofsson (illness) is expected to rejoin the Sabres on Sunday against the Hurricanes, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports. - Olofsson had missed the Sabres' last four contests with an illness, though he was back at practice Sunday prior to a home matchup with Carolina. It's been a tough year for the 28-year-old Olofsson -- he has four goals and 12 points through 35 games while serving as a healthy scratch of late. None
Feb. 20, 2024 Olofsson (illness) won't accompany the Sabres on the team's upcoming two-game road trip, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports. - If Olofsson sits out the next two contests, his next opportunity to rejoin the lineup would be Sunday's home matchup against Carolina. The 28-year-old forward has been a healthy scratch for the past two games, so he may not return to action once he's back to 100 percent. Olofsson has four goals, 12 points and 46 shots on net over 35 appearances this season. None
Jan. 12, 2024 Olofsson (illness) missed Thursday's tilt versus Ottawa as a healthy scratch, Bill Hoppe of Buffalo Hockey Beat reports. - Olofsson sat out two games with the flu, but he was well enough to play Thursday. Olofsson was a healthy scratch for a couple of games at the end of December and he has played only once in the Sabres' last six contests. Olofsson has four goals and eight assists in 31 games -- a huge regression from last season when he had 28 tallies in 75 contests. None
Jan. 11, 2024 Olofsson (illness) will not rejoin the lineup against Ottawa on Thursday, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. - Olofsson continues to be unavailable for the Sabres despite the injury to Jeff Skinner (upper body). Olofsson has been skating with the team, including filling in for Skinner in a first-line role. As such, once given the all-clear, Olofsson could be in contention for a spot in the top six. None
Jan. 9, 2024 Olofsson (illness) is practicing ahead of Tuesday's game versus the Kraken, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. - Olofsson should be an option against Seattle, but he's been a healthy scratch for three of the Sabres' last four games, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him sent to the press box for Tuesday's contest. The 28-year-old vet has collected 12 points through 31 games this season. None
Jan. 8, 2024 Olofsson didn't practice Monday because of an illness, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports. - Olofsson was a healthy scratch Saturday against Pittsburgh, so he may not play Tuesday versus Seattle even if he is fully recovered. He has supplied four goals, 12 points and 42 shots on net in 31 games this season. None
Dec. 3, 2023 Olofsson scored on a penalty shot in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Predators. - Olofsson was tripped by Jeremy Lauzon on a scoring chance just over halfway through the second period. The goal was Olofsson's first in nine games, though he had a trio of two-assists efforts in that span to remain moderately productive in a bottom-six role. The winger has three goals, seven helpers, 28 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating through 19 outings this season. He'll likely remain in the lineup with the Sabres battling a number of injuries up front, but Olofsson could be a healthy scratch when the team is closer to full strength. None
Nov. 27, 2023 Olofsson registered two assists in a 5-1 win over the Rangers on Monday. - Olofsson earned his third multi-point game over his last four contests and his fourth over seven games. His recent hot spell is in stark contrast to his run of one assist through his first nine outings of 2023-24. Olofsson is serving in a middle-six capacity and isn't likely to be elevated beyond that role for any substantial period. That makes it unlikely the 28-year-old will be able to maintain his recent offensive success long-term. None
Nov. 25, 2023 Olofsson posted two assists in Friday's 3-2 win against the Penguins. - One of Olofsson's assist was the secondary helper on Jeff Skinner's power-play goal at 5:13 of the third period. He finished with a shot on goal in 14:09 of ice time across 19 shifts. After getting blanked in six games in October, Olofsson has come alive lately with two goals and six points in the past five games. He'll look to stay hot Saturday on the road against the Devils. None
Nov. 15, 2023 Olofsson scored his first two goals of the season in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Bruins. - The veteran winger had only one assist through his first nine games of the season while bouncing in and out of the press box, but Olofsson's offense woke up Tuesday -- after banging home a puck that caromed straight to him off the end boards late in the second period, he scored a sniper's goal in the third by taking a pass in the slot from John-Jason Peterka with his back to the Boston net, then spinning and going top shelf over Linus Ullmark in one smooth motion. Olofsson fired home a career-high 28 goals last season, and with Tage Thompson (upper body) now potentially sidelined for a lengthy period, Buffalo needs him to re-discover that form quickly. None
Oct. 17, 2023 Olofsson will be a healthy scratch for Tuesday night's game versus Tampa Bay. - This news comes as a bit of a surprise following the 28-goal, 40-point performance Olofsson submitted in 2022-23, but he's strugled a bit to start the 2023-24 campaign, going scoreless while posting a minus-2 rating and just one shot on net through the first two games of the season. Tyson Jost will replace Olofsson in the lineup against the Lightening. None
April 14, 2023 Olofsson found the back of the net in the Sabres' 5-2 win over Columbus on Friday. - Olofsson's marker came midway through the second period to increase Buffalo's lead to 2-1. He has completed the season with 28 goals and 40 points in 75 outings. The 27-year-old has reached the 40-point milestone in three of his last four campaigns. None
March 25, 2023 Olofsson recorded a power-play assist in Friday's 5-4 win over the Devils. - Olofsson has power-play assists in back-to-back games, with his latest apple proving to be a critical one since the Devils ended up scoring a pair of unanswered goals in the third period and nearly flipped the script. While Buffalo's a longshot to make the playoffs, Olofsson's propensity for clutch moments shouldn't be overlooked; he's secured 11 game-winning goals in the past two seasons alone. None
March 18, 2023 Olofsson scored two power-play goals in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers. - Both tallies came in the third period, after the Sabres were already down 4-0, but it was still an impressive return for Olofsson after he had been a healthy scratch the last two games. The 27-year-old had only one point, a goal, over his prior 13 contests, and given his middle-six role at even strength and usual spot on the second power-play unit, Friday's performance is more likely to be a blip rather than the start of a hot streak. On the season, Olofsson has a career-high 26 goals, but only 35 points, through 66 games. None
March 13, 2023 Olofsson will not play Monday against the Maple Leafs, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports. - The 27-year-old is expected to be a healthy scratch with Alex Tuch (lower body) back from injured reserve. Olofsson has 24 goals in 65 games this season, but he's scored just one in the last 17 contests. He averaged just 13:16 of ice time with a minus-7 rating over his last six games. None
Feb. 13, 2023 Olofsson logged two assists, including one on the power play, in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Kings. - Olofsson set up Dylan Cozens and Peyton Krebs for third-period tallies. Playmaking isn't usually the primary component of Olofsson's game, but he has three assists over his last two contests, and he hasn't scored in the last four games. The winger is up to 32 points (23 goals ,nine helpers), 121 shots on net and a minus-11 rating through 52 outings. None
Jan. 26, 2023 Olofsson found the back of the net in Buffalo's 3-2 victory over Winnipeg on Thursday. - Olofsson scored on the power play at 10:30 of the third period to put Buffalo up 3-0. It was his 23rd goal and 29th point in 48 games in 2022-23. Olofsson has been on quite the roll lately, contributing 10 goals and 11 points over his last 12 contests. None
Jan. 23, 2023 Olofsson scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Monday's 3-2 overtime win over the Stars. - The winger just can't stop scoring -- this was his seventh goal over his last seven games. He gave the Sabres a brief 2-1 lead in the third period. Olofsson has 22 tallies, six assists, a minus-7 rating and 106 shots on net while filling a middle-six role. His impressive scoring rate is bolstered by a 20.8 shooting percentage, so while he can help in some fantasy formats, there's still a fair amount of risk present. None
Jan. 21, 2023 Olofsson scored two goals, one the game-winner, in Saturday's 6-3 victory over the Ducks. - Both his goals came in the third period as Olofsson and the Sabres blew open a 3-3 tie. The streaky 27-year-old is locked in right now and has scored eight goals in the last nine games, but he has only one assist over that stretch, continuing a season-long trend that has seen Olofsson collect 21 goals and only six helpers through 45 games. None
Jan. 19, 2023 Olofsson scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Islanders. - Olofsson tied the game 2-2 midway through the third period, ripping a wrist shot from the circle past Ilya Sorokin. Olofsson has heated up of late, with four goals and an assist in his last five contests. The 27-year-old winger is up to 25 points (19 goals, six assists) through 44 games this season. None
Jan. 17, 2023 Olofsson netted a goal in Buffalo's 4-3 overtime loss to Chicago on Tuesday. - Olofsson's marker came at 12:15 of the first period to tie the game at 1-1. That put him up to 18 goals and 24 points in 43 contests in 2022-23. He's been held off the scoresheet just once in his last four games. None
Jan. 14, 2023 Olofsson scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Predators. - Olofsson tallied for the second game in a row, and he's lit the lamp four times in his last five. This was his first power-play point since Dec. 4 -- he's been less effective on the second unit, but he's made up for it with a burst of even-strength offense. The 27-year-old winger has 17 tallies, six helpers, 94 shots on net and a minus-10 rating through 41 contests overall. None
Jan. 12, 2023 Olofsson scored a goal and added an assist in a 4-2 loss to the Jets on Thursday. - Olofsson is in a Cy Young season -- he has 16 goals and just six assists in 40 games and is well on the way to a new career mark. Olofsson has scored 20 goals twice and could top 30 this year. None
Jan. 7, 2023 Olofsson scored twice, including the winner, in a 6-5 overtime victory over Minnesota on Saturday. - His goals bookended the game. Olofsson opened the scoring in the first on a one-timer from the right circle off a no-look pass from Casey Mittelstadt. He then scored the winner with 19 seconds remaining in overtime. The goals snapped a seven-game goal drought for the winger, who now has 15 goals and five assists in 37 games this season. None
Dec. 15, 2022 Olofsson logged an assist and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Avalanche. - Olofsson helped out on a Rasmus Dahlin goal in the second period, which stood as the game-winner. With two goals and three assists in his last six games, it's been a solid stretch for Olofsson. The winger is up to 13 goals, five helpers, 65 shots on net and a minus-8 rating in 30 contests overall, and he remains stuck on the third line with second-unit power-play minutes. None
Dec. 13, 2022 Olofsson scored a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 6-0 win over the Kings. - All of Buffalo's scoring came in the third period, with Olofsson potting the second tally in the sudden eruption of offense. The 27-year-old hadn't produced a multi-point performance since Nov. 2, managing only three goals and four points during the 13 games in between, and his numbers on the season (13 goals and four helpers in 29 games) are similarly lopsided. Olofsson's providing some valuable production from the Sabres' third line, but without a top-six placement or a consistent spot on the power play, his fantasy ceiling remains limited. None
Dec. 4, 2022 Olofsson logged a power-play assist and went minus-2 in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Sharks. - Olofsson snapped a three-game slump with his helper. The 27-year-old had an uneven November, registering five goals and an assist in 14 games while seeing his role gradually decrease to bottom-six duties and power-play time. He's picked up 11 goals, two helpers, five power-play points, 59 shots on net and a minus-8 rating. He needs to score consistently to be on the fantasy radar. None
Nov. 4, 2022 Olofsson scored a goal in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Hurricanes. - This was the first time all season Olofsson has scored just once in a game -- he had four multi-goal efforts and six scoreless outings entering Friday. The ability to score in bunches has been nice to see, but the winger has done almost nothing else. He has just one assist to go with nine goals, 33 shots on net and a plus-5 rating in 11 contests this year. None
Nov. 2, 2022 Olofsson scored two goals on three shots in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Penguins. - Remarkably, Olofsson's eight goals through 10 games have come in the form of four separate two-goal outings. He tied the game at 3-3 at 6:29 into the third period, then rounded out the scoring by hitting an empty net with seven seconds remaining. If he can stay healthy, Olofsson should breeze by his previous high of 20 goals as a staple in the top six for the surprisingly high-scoring Sabres. None
Oct. 29, 2022 Olofsson scored two goals, including the game winner, in a 4-3 overtime win over Chicago on Saturday. - Both came on the power play. He scored from the high slot off a face-off win by Casey Mittelstadt at 6:19 of the first period. He won it on a one-timer from the right circle off a feed from Rasmus Dahlin. Olofsson now has six goals and one assist in eight games this season and is shooting at an unsustainable 23.1 percent. There will be reversion to the mean soon enough -- Olofsson's career shooting percentage is 13.1. None
Oct. 22, 2022 Olofsson scored twice, dished an assist and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks. - Olofsson notched all three of his points in the third period to help the Sabres run away with the win. He's produced two multi-point efforts and three goose eggs through five games this year, so the 27-year-old winger still remains a bit streaky. He's got four goals, one helper, 14 shots on net and a plus-4 rating, though he's still searching for his first power-play point after recording no fewer than 12 in each of the last three campaigns. None
Oct. 13, 2022 Olofsson scored twice Thursday in a 4-1 win over Ottawa. - Both were empty-net goals in the last minute of play. Olofsson is a versatile top-six forward who delivered 20 goals and 49 points last season. The Sabres will be a better team than they were in 2021-22, so Olofsson could deliver even more for smart managers willing to take the Buffalo risk. None
July 13, 2022 Olofsson signed a two-year, $9.5 million contract extension with the Sabres on Wednesday. - Olofsson remained a solid top-six contributor for Buffalo in 2021-22, racking up 20 goals and 49 points, 12 of which came with the man advantage, while averaging 15:20 of ice time through 72 contests. If he's able to play a full 82-game slate, Olofsson should produce 20-plus goals and could crack the 50-point mark for the first time in his career in 2022-23. None
April 23, 2022 Olofsson notched two assists in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Islanders. - The fourth-year winger continues his late-season surge. Olofsson has multiple points in three straight games, and over the last 14 contests he's racked up eight goals and 19 points. With two games remaining for Buffalo, he's now one point shy of his first career 50-point campaign. None
April 21, 2022 Olofsson dished out three assists -- one shorthanded -- in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils. - Olofsson's first two assists came in the second period, as the Sabres scored three times after a scoreless first before the Devils got one back eight seconds prior to the second intermission. The Swedish winger's third helper came on the game's final goal. Olofsson has been tremendous down the stretch, notching eight goals and 17 points over his last 13 games. None
April 17, 2022 Olofsson scored two power-play goals on four shots in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Flyers. - Olofsson has been hot down the stretch, totaling eight goals and 14 points in his last 12 games. Five of those eight goals have come on the power play, where Olofsson has a little more room to make use of his excellent shot. None
April 6, 2022 Olofsson scored the game-winning goal and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes. - Both points came in the third period, as Olofsson broke open a 2-2 tie by wiring home a slick feed from Rasmus Dahlin with just under eight minutes left in the game, before Dylan Cozens tapped home the rebound on his shot from the top of the faceoff circle a few minutes later for an insurance tally. Olofsson has three multi-point efforts in his last five games, pushing him up to 16 goals and 37 points through 61 contests on the season. None
April 2, 2022 Olofsson scored the game-winning goal on the power play and added an even-strength assist in Friday's 4-3 victory over the Predators. - He ripped home a one-timer on a feed from Dylan Cozens late in the second period, the only goal on the night that didn't come before the first intermission. Olofsson has come alive since the beginning of March, pocketing eight goals and 11 points through 15 games. None
March 28, 2022 Olofsson scored twice on five shots and added an assist in Monday's 6-5 win over the Blackhawks. - Olofsson's pair of goals sparked the Sabres' offense to life in the second period, and one of them was a power-play tally. He also set up Alex Tuch on a game-tying goal in the third. This was Olofsson's first multi-point effort since Feb. 15. The 26-year-old winger has 14 tallies, 33 points, 130 shots on net and a minus-19 rating in a career-high 57 outings. None
March 20, 2022 Olofsson recorded an assist in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canucks. - Olofsson set up Casey Mittelstadt's first-period tally. Through nine games in March, Olofsson has four goals and an assist despite often playing in a third-line role. The scoring winger is at 29 points, 119 shots on net and a minus-22 rating through 53 contests, though he's cooled off dramatically in 2022 after starting the season well. None
March 17, 2022 Olofsson added a goal on four shots in a 6-1 loss to the Oilers on Thursday. - Olofsson kept the goose egg off of the Buffalo side of the scoreboard, not that it was much consolation in the lopsided loss. The left winger has four goals in seven contests in March, with 11 goals and 17 assists in 51 contests this season. None
March 10, 2022 Olofsson scored a power-play goal in a 3-1 win over Vegas on Thursday. - It stood as the game-winner on a night the entire Sabres' squad was motivated to show their fans their strength in Jack Eichel's return to the city. Olofsson has three goals in his last five games. None
Feb. 25, 2022 Olofsson (illness) will play Friday in St. Louis, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. - Olofsson sat out Wednesday's game against the Canadiens due to a non-COVID-19 illness, but he's back taking line rushes at morning skate Friday and is good to go against the Blues. With 24 points in 42 games, Olofsson has been a nice source of secondary scoring and a decent matchup-based fantasy spot-start this season. None
Feb. 22, 2022 Olofsson won't play Wednesday versus Montreal due to a non-COVID illness, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports. - With Olofsson on the shelf, look for Mark Jankowski to draw into the lineup against the Canadiens. Olofsson will be reevaluated prior to Friday's game versus St. Louis. None
Feb. 16, 2022 Olofsson scored two goals, including the game-winner, in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Islanders. - With the score tied 3-3 and less than three minutes left in the third period, Olofsson took a cross-ice pass at the faceoff dot and snapped a shot that Ilya Sorokin couldn't handle. Olofsson then iced the game with the second of Buffalo's two empty-net tallies with 26 seconds remaining. The outburst snapped a 30-game goal drought for the 26-year-old, who hadn't lit the lamp since returning from an undisclosed injury in mid-November. It's not clear if Olofsson had been playing at less than 100 percent during that slump or had simply been unlucky, but with the monkey now off his back he'll try to regain the form that saw him score 20 goals in 54 games only two seasons ago. None
Jan. 30, 2022 Olofsson was removed from the COVID-19 list and will play Sunday against Colorado. - Olofsson missed just one game while stuck in COVID-19 protocols. He has 12 points with a minus-14 rating through 34 games this season. He's skating in a middle-six role Sunday. None
Jan. 29, 2022 Olofsson entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Saturday. - Olofsson will need to return two negative tests before he can get back in action. The winger will likely miss Saturday's game versus the Coyotes and Sunday's contest against the Avalanche at a minimum. Kyle Okposo (upper body) will likely replace Olofsson in a middle-six role. None
Jan. 18, 2022 Olofsson finished with three shots in a 3-1 win over the Senators on Tuesday. - Olofsson has 11 assists over his last 23 games since coming back from injury (undisclosed) against the Rangers on Nov. 21. However, the winger has not scored a goal during that span. The 26-year-old scored 20 goals in 54 games in 2019-20 and 13 goals in 56 games in 2020-21, so there is room for improvement. None
Dec. 14, 2021 Olofsson recorded a pair of assists in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Jets. - Olofsson's 12:41 of ice time was the lowest among Buffalo's forwards, as the Sabres deployed their defensive-minded lines more while protecting the lead for most of the night. The Swede made the most of his limited opportunities, though, helping out on Rasmus Dahlin's game-winner late in the second and Jeff Skinner's third-period insurance marker. Olofsson's last goal came back on Oct. 31, but he's been productive overall, with five goals and 17 points in 20 appearances. None
Dec. 4, 2021 Olofsson recorded an assist and four shots on goal in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Hurricanes. - Olofsson was initially credited with a goal in the first period, but it was ruled he never tipped the Henri Jokiharju shot that beat Antti Raanta. The 26-year-old Olofsson is up to five goals, 10 assists, 38 shots and a minus-4 rating in 16 contests. A point-per-game pace is likely a little too lofty for the Swede, but his prominent role should keep him at least as a depth option in fantasy. None
Nov. 29, 2021 Olofsson posted an assist, two shots on goal and a minus-3 rating in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Kraken. - Olofsson set up Jeff Skinner for the latter's second goal of the game. The 26-year-old Olofsson has served as a playmaker with five assists in six games since he returned from a soft-tissue injury. Typically more of a finisher, the Swedish winger has five goals, nine assists, 32 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating in 14 appearances this year. He might not maintain a point-per-game pace, but his power-play skills make him worth a look in standard fantasy formats. None
Nov. 21, 2021 Olofsson (undisclosed) practiced in a non-contact jersey Sunday, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. - An undisclosed injury has sidelined the forward since Oct. 31, but he doesn't appear to be far from returning. That said, Olofsson likely won't be ready to play again until he returns to full participation in practice. The 26-year-old tallied five goals and four assists in eight games to start the season. None
Nov. 18, 2021 Olofsson (undisclosed) is on injured reserve, per the NHL's official media site. - Olofsson hasn't played since Oct. 31 versus the Kings due to an undisclosed issue, and the 26-year-old winger remains without a concrete timetable for his return to action. Fantasy managers should continue to keep a close eye on Olofsson's status moving forward, as he was red hot prior to getting injured, racking up five goals and nine points through eight contests. None
Nov. 16, 2021 Olofsson (undisclosed) will not suit up Tuesday against Pittsburgh, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. - Olofsson has now missed the last seven games while dealing with a mysterious injury. There hasn't been much information regarding the severity of his injury, so he'll be out indefinitely until another update is available. None
Nov. 13, 2021 Olofsson (undisclosed) will not play Saturday against Toronto. - Olofsson will miss his sixth straight game Saturday and it's unclear when the 26-year-old winger is expected to return. His next chance to play will be Tuesday in Pittsburgh. None
Nov. 10, 2021 Olofsson (undisclosed) isn't expected to play Friday versus the Oilers, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports. - Olofsson's injury is evidently more serious than initially expected, as he's dealing with inflammation that will need to subside before he returns, so at this point there's no telling when he might be ready to rejoin the lineup. Once given the green light, Olofsson should return to a top-six role and a spot on one of Buffalo's power-play units. None
Nov. 7, 2021 Olofsson (undisclosed) won't play Monday's game in Washington, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports. - Monday's contest will mark the fourth straight that Olofsson has missed with the injury. Given his nine points in eight games, Buffalo is undoubtedly hoping the 26-year-old can return sooner rather than later. With the team not playing again after Monday until Friday at Edmonton, it seems like Olofsson will have a good shot at returning after the extended rest. None
Nov. 4, 2021 Per Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550, Olofsson (undisclosed) didn't participate in morning skate, indicating he won't be in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Kraken. - Olofsson will miss a second straight contest Thursday. The 26-year-old winger is still considered day-to-day with his undisclosed issue, so he could be ready to return as soon as Saturday versus Detroit. None
Oct. 15, 2021 Victor Olofsson Starts Season With Two-Point Effort - Buffalo Sabres winger Victor Olofsson notched a goal and an assist as the team opened up the season with a big 5-1 win over Montreal. The Swedish winger scored a power-play goal in the second period and registered a power-play assist in the third, combining with Jeff Skinner to set up Tage Thompson. Olofsson now has 34 career goals and 21 of them have come with a man advantage. The 26-year-old has had some good spells in Buffalo and he's off to a nice start to the season, which should earn the attention of fantasy managers. He at least deserves a look if your team lacks power-play points. None
May 8, 2021 Victor Olofsson had 18:30 of ice time in the Sabres' 1-0 loss to the Penguins on Saturday. He took two shots and had a plus-minus of even for the game. None

2023-12-04 analysis Olofsson was tripped by Jeremy Lauzon on a scoring chance just over halfway through the second period. The goal was Olofsson's first in nine games, though he had a trio of two-assists efforts in that span to remain moderately productive in a bottom-six role.

2023-11-15 analysis The veteran winger had only one assist through his first nine games of the season while bouncing in and out of the press box, but Olofsson's offense woke up Tuesday -- after banging home a puck that caromed straight to him off the end boards late in the second period, he scored a sniper's goal in the third by taking a pass in the slot from John-Jason Peterka with his back to the Boston net, then s
2023-11-15 update Olofsson scored his first two goals of the season in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Bruins.
2023-10-17 analysis This news comes as a bit of a surprise following the 28-goal, 40-point performance Olofsson submitted in 2022-23, but he's strugled a bit to start the 2023-24 campaign, going scoreless while posting a minus-2 rating and just one shot on net through the first two games of the season. Tyson Jost will replace Olofsson in the lineup against the Lightening.
