Outlook Tage Thompson

Tage Thompson brings elite form into home clash with Blue Jackets

Tage Thompson enters tonight’s matchup against the Columbus Blue Jackets on an absolute tear, having generated nine points across his last five contests after recently earning NHL First Star of the Week honors. Skating alongside Zach Benson and Peyton Krebs at even strength while anchoring Buffalo's top power-play unit, Thompson remains the focal point of the offense. The Sabres (7–5–3) host Columbus (7–7–0) at KeyBank Center as clear favorites in an expected higher-scoring environment, and they will face opposing netminder Jet Greaves (confirmed). With his prime scoring touch intact, Thompson is primed to exploit this advantageous home matchup.

Our daily projection expects Thompson to deliver ~1 point with ~2–3 shots on goal and a good chance to score, translating to approximately 4.5 fantasy points. His elite trigger on the primary power play provides a formidable ceiling against Columbus' penalty kill. Looking at the wider schedule, this contest is the second of a three-game week for Buffalo, leaving one remaining matchup on Sunday before the week concludes, with our models expecting around 8.2 total fantasy points across the stretch. He remains a must-play cornerstone in all fantasy formats tonight. Today's action: Strong Start.
