Peterka failed to record a point in two games with the Sabres but did not look out of place at the NHL level. His stay was never expected to be a long one, so he gets sent back to the AHL to clear the way for Jeff Skinner to return from the COVID-19 protocol list.
With five forwards on the COVID-19 protocol list, the Sabres have dipped into the AHL and called up some of their top prospects. Peterka, who was the No.34 overall pick in 2020, has scored four goals with 16 assists (20 points) in 23 AHL games this season--his first year in North America. He will likely make his NHL debut on Wednesday.
