The Buffalo Sabres have acquired defenseman Olen Zellweger from the Anaheim Ducks in a trade announced Friday night. In exchange, the Ducks will receive forward Anton Wahlberg and Buffalo’s second-round pick (45th overall) in the upcoming NHL Entry Draft. This move allows Buffalo to bolster its defensive lineup with a promising young player. Zellweger, a developing defenseman, is expected to compete for a roster spot with the Sabres. The Ducks, meanwhile, gain a future asset in the draft and a prospect in Wahlberg. Sabres General Manager Jarmo Kekäläinen orchestrated the deal, continuing a reputation for active trades. This trade impacts both teams’ strategies heading into the draft and the next NHL season.
