The Buffalo Sabres and the Winnipeg Jets started NHL trade deadline day off with a bang.
The Sabres added defensemen Luke Schenn and Logan Stanley from Winnipeg in exchange for forward Isak Rosen, defenseman Jacob Bryson, a 2026 fourth-round pick and a 2027 second-rounder.
The additions come after Colton Parayko invoked his no-trade clause Thursday to block a move to Buffalo from St. Louis.
Stanley, 27, has played all six of his NHL seasons with Winnipeg and had a career-high 21 points in 59 games this season. Schenn is an 18-year veteran with one goal and six assists in 46 games this season. Both players can become unrestricted free agents this offseason.
The team also received forward Tanner Pearson from the Jets Friday afternoon in exchange for a seventh-round pick. Pearson, a veteran of 774 NHL games, won the Stanley Cup with the Los Angeles Kings in 2014.
In a separate move, the Sabres acquired center Sam Carrick from the New York Rangers for Buffalo’s third-round pick in 2026 and Chicago’s sixth-round pick in 2026.
“It’s new for me,” Sabres captain Rasmus Dahlin said of the team adding rather than unloading players at the deadline. “This is why you play hockey. This is what it should feel like.”
The Sabres are currently tied for first in the Atlantic Division with the Tampa Bay Lightning.
