The Buffalo Sabres are currently facing ongoing discussions regarding Alex Tuch's contract extension. As the talented winger focuses on the season ahead, he has willingly placed these talks on the back burner.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding his contract, Tuch remains committed to contributing to the team's success.

As the Sabres gear up for the upcoming season, the focus remains on building off the momentum from last year. Tuch's leadership and offensive skills will be crucial as the team aims for a playoff berth. Keeping the extension talks at bay allows him to concentrate fully on his game and lead his team towards achieving their goals.
