Thompson scored two goals on eight shots, including the game-winning goal on the power play, in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Kings.
Thompson extended his scoring surge after recording a hat trick and two assists against Anaheim on Thursday, giving him five goals over his last two appearances. The star center leads Buffalo with 10 goals this season, while his eight shots Saturday highlighted his ability to generate consistent scoring opportunities. He remains a premium fantasy option across all formats, as he has 17 points (10 goals, seven helpers), 63 shots and 19:26 TOI/G in 14 games so far this season.

Thompson scored three goals on four shots and added two power-play assists in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Ducks.
Thompson scored the last goal of a frenetic first period and tallied two goals in a 15-second span late in the second frame to earn the natural hat trick. He had as many points Thursday as he had in his previous seven games combined. Thompson can do this every now and then -- he is a three-time 40-goal scorer, after all. He has eight tallies, seven helpers, 55 shots, 10 hits and a plus-4 rating through 13 outings in a top-line role this season.

Thompson scored a goal on five shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canadiens.
Thompson tied the game midway through the third period with his fifth goal of the season, extending his productive start to the campaign. The 28-year-old center has peppered the net with pucks, taking at least five shots in five of his nine games and at least four in all but two. With nine points in nine games to start the season (five goals, four assists), he should continue to drive the Sabres' offense while offering an excellent fantasy floor due to his scoring prowess, playmaking ability and high shot totals.

Thompson scored a goal and added an assist in Monday's 5-3 win over Florida.
Thompson helped set up Rasmus Dahlin's (upper body) first-period power-play goal before capping the scoring himself with an even-strength tally in the third. He's up to four goals and three assists for seven points on the season, and he continues to see heavy power-play usage.

Thompson tallied a power-play goal, launched six shots on net and served two PIM in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Utah.
Thompson's power-play goal was the lone bright spot for Buffalo on Saturday, where he brought the puck coast-to-coast before firing a shot that snuck past the near side of Utah's Karel Vejmelka. With the highlight-reel twine finder, the 28-year-old Thompson is up to three goals, five points and a league-leading 29 shots on net across five games. He's averaging nearly six shots on goal per game, which makes him an elite fantasy option in leagues that value the creation of goal-scoring chances. He has a solid chance to contend for the 40-plus goal threshold for the third consecutive season in the 2026-27 campaign.

Thompson scored a goal on nine shots and added an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Wild.
Thompson came through late in the game when the Sabres needed him the most. The star playmaker netted the equalizer at the 9:38 mark of the third period and also delivered an assist on the overtime winner scored by Owen Power. The 28-year-old was extremely active offensively, leading all players with nine shots while logging 20:23 of ice time. Thompson has recorded two points in each of his last two games, producing two goals and two assists over that span.
