Dominik Kahun News

Kahun (knee) will not play on Wednesday.

Kahun was acquired from the Penguins on Monday but his knee injury will keep him from making his Sabres debut on Wednesday. Head coach Ralph Krueger wants him to get into a practice before he plays, so monitor his status leading up to their Friday/Saturday back-to-back.

The Sabres have acquired Dominik Kahun from the Penguins for Conor Sheary and Evan Rodrigues.

Kahun totaled 10 goals and 17 assists in 50 games for the Penguins after being acquired from the Blackhawks in the off-season. He put up 37 points in 82 games as a 23-year-old rookie in Chicago last year. He is set to become a restricted free-agent on July 1st.

Kahun is out indefinitely with a concussion.

Kahun was forced to leave Sunday's game in the second period and did not return. He was not on the ice for Monday's morning skate and head coach Mike Sullivan announced that he has been diagnosed with a concussion. Luckily the Penguins bye week is around the corner, so Kahun could only end up missing about three games.

The Penguins have acquired Dominik Kahun and a 2019 fifth-round pick (No.151 overall) from the Blackhawks for Olli Maatta.

Kahun was an undrafted free-agent who came to North America this year after spending four years in Germany. The 23-year-old winger had 13 goals and 24 assists (37 points) in 82 games with the Blackhawks and will likely be a replacement for Matt Cullen and Garrett Wilson as a bottom-6 forward for the Penguins.
