Alex Tuch News

After ongoing negotiations with the Buffalo Sabres that extended throughout the regular season and into the offseason, the two sides were unable to reach an agreement, leading to Tuch being part of a sign-and-trade with the Washington Capitals in exchange for a third-round pick. The 30-year-old Tuch had a solid 2025-26 season with the Sabres, scoring 66 points (33G / 33A) in 79 games. He has scored 33 or more goals in four of his last five seasons and will add a significant offensive boost to Washington's top-six.

Tuch is dealing with an illness and did not play on Tuesday, but should re-enter the lineup on Thursday against the San Jose Sharks. The 29-year-old Tuch is having an excellent season with Buffalo, scoring 57 points (28G / 29A) through 65 games despite seeing very little deployment on the team's top powerplay unit. He has nine points (6G / 3A) in his last eight games.

Tuch was a surprise scratch on Thursday, with the Sabres not announcing his absence prior to warmups. Trevor Kuntar will draw into the lineup and make his NHL debut in place of Tuch.

Tuch suffered a minor injury last week that kept him sidelined for several days, but he will draw into Buffalo's lineup on Saturday. The 29-year-old Tuch had 67 points (36G / 31A) in 82 games last season.

Tuch had a "minor little thing" sneak up on him right before the start of training camp, so he was held off of the ice on Thursday. Despite missing practice, Tuch said that he is "feeling great" and anticipates skating with the team in the "next couple of days."

Tuch left Saturday's blowout win over the Rangers with an undisclosed injury but he could return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Anaheim Ducks. The Sabres did state post game that they were not "too concerned" about the injury so it is not expected to keep the 28-year-old out long-term. The 28-year-old Tuch is averaging 19:21 time-on-ice and has 43 points (19G / 24A) in 55 games this season.
